[GUIDE] How to Upload BatteryThemes
After getting a lot of Emails on how to do this, I decided to Put this Quick Guide up.
In this Guide you will learn how to Load up New Battery Themes on your iphone
What is this-: There are 17 graphics that represent the different levels of the charge. These are not too hard to change. This is one of the easiest way to make your phone personal. .
Note:: If you used Ziphone to free your Phone - You will need to install Ziphone iBriker Fix from installer * Otherwise iphonebrowser is not going to show your phone as Jailbroken.
-: Few Very Basic things you will need :-
- Offcourse a Jailbroken iphone [Thanks Dave team,Nate True & everyone Involved in making the Jailbreak Happen]
- Customize Installed [This can be installed Via Installer if you dont have it]
- iPhonebrowser [Lets to Browse thru your phone create /delete Folders,Drag files, delete Files & much much more]
If you don't have iphone browser you can get it here HERE on Google
iPhoneBrowser
Assuming you have all the required Stuff we are good to go
- Hook up the iphone to the computer useing the usb cable [itunes may startup just close it]
- Now double click iphonebrowser
- You should see that the iphonebrowser recognized your device and will show the folders on your device in the Left hand side Menu. Refer to the screenshot of iphonebrowser to help you understand a little better
- Now Look in the left Menu of iphonebrowser All the way at the bottom you will see A Folder called [ Var ]
Go to The Following Location useing the iphonebrowser
- Go to Var >>Root>>Liberary>>Customize>>>BatteryImages
- Now Right Click on BatteryImages & Create a New Folder Under BatteryImages, In this case we Will Name this One "Example" [You can Name this Folder whatever You want]
- So after creating the new folder we should have this :
- VAR>>Root>>Liberary>>Customize>>>BatteryImages>>Ex ample
- If you have the downloaded a Battery theme and extracted it allready You are ready to upload it.... otherwise Hit the download section
- Open the theme folder and Drag ALL THE FILES from the Theme Folder Into "Example FOLDER"
In this location
VAR>>Root>>Liberary>>Customize>>>BatteryImages>>Ex ample
After All Files are Copied Over You are ready to use the Theme
GO to Customize on your iphone
Then go to Battery Images you should see your New Theme There. In this case its under "Example" Refer to ScreenShot for better understanding
Just click the New battery Image And Press Ok - press Home Key your device will reset if its still plugged in cool if not then plug into Power & if you have done everything correct your new battery should Light up your Face
Troubleshooting:
Issues
- you have all the 17 images show up in Customize
- You Select your theme and still have the default battery
- Your Theme doesn't show up in customize
- All other Issues
Soultion
The good thing is that Only Few things can be Wrong
First Nameing Format for customize
Wrong Format -: Example_1
Correct Format -: Example-1
- Make sure there are only 17 Files in the theme.
- Make sure all 17 files are Named correctly.
Naming Format should be as follows-:
[we are going to name this theme "Example"]
So this is what it should look like
- Example
- Example-1
- Example-2
- Example-3
- Example-4
- Example-5
- Example-6
- Example-7
- Example-8
- Example-9
- Example-10
- Example-11
- Example-12
- Example-13
- Example-14
- Example-15
- Example-16
( In some themes u may see that it has Example-17(18Images)that is ok i have tested those on my customize they work !Just make sure the naming Formats are correct)

What if your Battery Theme consists of a series of images? For instance the Stiletto Theme has BatteryBG_1.png, BatteryBG_2.png.....And so on. When they show up in Customize it shows all the icons. How do I know what one to pick?

Hey ballaholyk84 you won't be able to use any one those if they are all showing up
Issue there is that the theme isnt named correctly
Props to whoever created this theme But the Entire theme isn't named correctly here i corrected it relle quick for u . Jus get it from here
- Wrong Naming Format: BatteryBG_1.png
- Correct Nameing Format is: BatteryBG-1.png
tiger1981 - You should try the same thing .. try looking into Naming formats ..

nah Shai** is my friend.. he just releases all the Stuff for me..
Can't have 1 to 100% lol Since the phone is only programmed to handle 17 images... man adding 100 images would be imposssible in customize . but a good idea
