iPhone Question: Theming NCSettings?

[JamilaLei]

Hi,

I'm a new jailbreaker and I love it. I've quickly figured out how to customize my setup to my liking using iFile mostly. But I can't quite figure out how to theme NcSettings. I don't mean installing a theme from Cydia, but using a custom one I've found on the internet. I saw a post in the jailbroken 5 thread where the poster used custom toggles, but I'm not sure how to install them. Any ideas?

Thanks.

I think you can just place the entire theme folder in var>mobile>library>NCSettings>themes

Then just refer to the 2 existing themes for the proper way to name the files, to confirm you have exactly what you need, etc.

Edit: Most NCSettings themes use winterboard but the dev included a built in theming option for people who wanted to theme the toggles. About a month ago the dev tweeted that he was considering removing the feature because mostly everyone was using winterboard to theme it. I'm not sure if he ever got around to removing it before he had to give up developing the tweak. I haven't updated past 1.6.2 because all the versions after that cause all kinds of problems on my phone. My point is, I'm not sure if he removed the built in theme feature in 1.7. Let me know if you have any questions or problems. I'll try to help you. I don't theme my phone so my knowledge is very limited but I'll do my best to help!

Please let me know if it works too!

I'm on the latest, and the theming system is still there.
