About Theme Settings

Theme Settings is a Nokia N9 settings plugin for changing the system theme.

Usage

To change the system theme, start Settings, select Device and then Theme. This view allows you to select the system theme. The package comes with an example theme, Magenta, which replaces cyan buttons and status bar icons with magenta ones. After selecting a theme the device needs to be restarted using the dialog requesting to do so.

Downloading and installing

Theme Settings was available for download from the Nokia Store. Unfortunately Nokia Store QA has decided to unpublish it, so if you encounter problems downloading please contact Nokia Store Support or Nokia Developer Support. The latest version is also available here but it requires installations from non-Store sources to be allowed and won't get updated automatically.

Uninstalling

Theme Settings can be uninstalled like any other application by starting Settings, selecting Applications, selecting Manage applications, selecting Theme settings and then Uninstall.

Creating and installing new themes

Themes can be installed from individual theme packages. Themes reside in the directory /usr/share/themes/themename and should be provided by packages named meegotouchtheme-themename for consistency. Each theme should inherit the blanco theme to ensure proper operation. Refer to libmeegotouch documentation for additional information about theming. Since a broken theme can cause a device to malfunction and not to start at all, be extra careful when creating a theme and ensure that the theme works correctly in all applications. Themes should always reset the system theme back to black during uninstallation in the postrm script so that the system won't try to use the theme after it has been uninstalled.
