Hi Macrumors, I'm new here. I just got an iPhone 3g last week and I can't stop playing with it, it's so sick. Well, I did jailbreak the phone and I have cydia on it. I got winterboard and I'm trying to get new themes. I first tried Chocomilk and it wouldn't even load, it kept giving me error signs and then I tried Vista Mobile, which loaded, but still didn't show up in my winterboard.

I guess after you Install it, it should show up as something to click on winterboard right?

The second thing is, I saw a youtube where someone had a bunch of apple wallpapers change automatically every 45 seconds. When he opened/closed an app, it would change as well. I think it is very sick and want that.

Even if it doesn't change 45 seconds, how do you change the wallpaper AFTER you go past the first lock screen. I changed my front wallpaper, but not behind my springboard.


Any help would be very much appreciated, thank you.
 
To change the wallpaper on the springboard, enable "User Wallpaper" in winterboard. It should be one of the options that come with it.

To get the springboard wallpaper to change, download BossPaper from Cydia. It's an app separate from winterboard. it lets you pick which images, transitions, intervals, etc

Thanks, I actually figured out how to get the wallpaper in the back right before your comment, but I still can't get my themes through winterboard to work. I tried searching many tutorials and I can't find anything. You're suppose to just download it, install it, and it should show up in winterboard, why is it giving me so much trouble?

Edit: I got some themes, Adeo and Orbz worked, but Chocomilk/Blackcity Theme/Glaskart/Wood Room didn't work. They just won't stop giving me error signs and not loading.
