Every other icon on my springboard including the parent categories icon updates but the folders will not. How do I change this short of ssh?

Did you open the categories folders, use the "Info" icon (lower right corner of folder) and apply your theme (called Icons theme) inside the categories folder ?? You have to do this separately for each categories folder.
 
Yes I did. Inside the folder it works fine. I want to theme the actual folder that is shown on the springboard.

You can make a custom icon, just name it the same as the folder name with.png on end, drop it in the icons folder.

For example, if you have a folder named "Games" make an icon and name it "Games.png" and SSH it into the icons folder of your theme.
 
install ssh use iphonebrowser and you're done. Don't know why many people are afraid to use SSH.
