all you have to do is go to the settings tab than click wallpaper and choose the image that you want to use.

no as stated across the board many times you unzip and take all the image files fromthe zip folder and than you overwrite the originals in the windows folder..... they cannot be placed in the windows folder while zipped or in another folder.

do i need a certain type of program to overwrite the files? and do i use all the files in the zipped file, or just the png image files...cause when it's unzipped there's a combination of files, manila and png

all you have to do is drag them to a new zip folder and than rename the extension to .theme ....... once you do that you will be fine and ready to go and be seen :>

so all i have to do is just create a new zip folder and drag the files to that folder? wouldn't that be the same as having the zip file that i have now? sorry for being such a total noob, but could you go through it step by step?

when you make the new .zip file, RENAME the extension to .theme

i'm having some bad luck here... i've gotten a bg on my TF3D before, but now I can't seem too. I went to settings/ Today/ and checked the box to use the bg. i tried .jpg and .png and neither work. i also went to Album Viewer and selected "use as background" and that didn't work. it puts the picture on my Today background, doesn't show up on TF3D.
what am i doing wrong?

thanks

you need the theme file as we already told you in this thread. take that and drag to any folder on your storage card. than use touchflo 3d config tool 0.6.7 and delete the tweaks file than run it and choose the theme you want and click apply...... also read through the thread for the tool since it is stated in there also.

Hello. I need HELP! My config tool doesn't let
me select a new theme under Path. I only see
folders not files. I read through all the pages
and other pages and still couldn't fix it. What
am I doing wrong? Also, is there any FREE REGISTRY
download so that I can edit my registry. THANK YOU.

Yeah you need the Theme file not the folder to put the theme on your phone. Pull the theme file out of the folder onto your phone and it will show up for you. And as far as registry try PHM registry editor in the search bar...

Thanks for the Video. I'm still having trouble with the Select Path. All my folders open but there are no files. No files open. I can't select and apply since there are no files. Please help me with this issue. I tried some of the other things that people told me but it's still not working properly. THANKS!

you dont go into the folder with the .theme....you just select it so its colored(single click) this was said in the video. If your sayin you cant see the files in, that means you double clicked and opened the folder. DO NOT open the folder. Just select it.
