How To Install Themes On Your iPhone Using iPhone Explorer

To be able to access the root directory of your iPhone without using wifi, you need to download iPhone Explorer. It's a free app that is the equivalent of Winscp for people with wifi connection. With this, you just need an iPhone usb cable.




1. Download iPhone Explorer from Macroplant.com.
2. Install it on your computer.
3. Plug the phone using the usb cable.
4. Assuming you already have the folder of the theme you just downloaded, just copy and paste it on the themes directory of the iPhone located in Root/Var/Stash/Themes
5. Once done, open Winterboard to install the theme, select then Respring.

IP Address unavailable/ cannot hook up to internet

Has it been rooted?
The equivelent of a an ipad/iphone jailbreak?

You can check this by doing one of two things.
The first is by going into settings, scrolling down to the bottom and clicking on About Tablet.
If not that then go to Settings/Device and then click About Tablet.

The second, and easiest, is to check to see if you have an app called SuperUser (SU).
If you do then your device is rooted.

Other ways to check, which is more dificult because of you not being able to get WiFi access, is by downloading an app called Root Checker or a Terminal app.
Root checker is self explanitory as it does exactly what it says on the tin.
It will check to see if you have root access to your device and will tell you either way.
The terminal app will show a hash tag symbol (#) as soon as it is started.
This is also an indicator of root access.

Have a look in the WiFi/network settings for your device and see if it has been set up to use a proxy or VPN.
If it has then clear these settings and try to enable the WiFi again.
If this doesn't work then i would restore the device back to factory settings as it could be a software issue.
Failing that you could always upgrade the firmware to the new 4.4 KitKat which, if your device is rooted, will wipe root access out.

Everytime i open the app on my ipod touch i enter my password then it freezes then crashes and goes back to the menu. I can open up and folder or pictures before it freezes, what can i do?, is there away to still get it on my computer?

Are you entering the correct password?
There is a way to get your files if your iPod touch is jailbroken.
You can access the root folder by using iPhone Explorer or Winscp.
You have to have OpenSSH installed on your phone. You can download it in Cydia.
If your phone is not jailbroken, I believe you can just delete the application and then download it again.
No need to worry about the payment because when you buy an application in the App Store, you can download it as many times as you want provided you use the same account.
