[h1]How to Use WinterBoard: A Walkthrough[/h1]

While we might not see a free version of SummerBoard, one of the most highly-anticipated jailbroken apps, iPhone customization-junkies are turning to an alternative: WinterBoard.

For those of you who don't know what SummerBoard is, it's an application that runs in the background of your iPhone and allows you to easily apply pre-made and custom themes that you can download directly from Installer / Cydia. The themes can have customized elements such as icons, backgrounds, title bars, docks, etc..

SummerBoard was created by a company named Nullriver (also the original creators of the famous Installer.app or Apptapp Installer, as well as the controversial Netshare App). Nullriver licensed the rights of SummerBoard, and Installer, to a new company called RIP Dev. RIP Dev has an application you can purchase ($45 for an unlimited subscription) that now has a more advanced feature-set of SummerBoard included (called FaceLift). The application is called Kate.

For those of us who have no money, and wish to have SummerBoard style theming anyway, Saurik (the creator of Cydia) has blessed us with WinterBoard. WinterBoard is an open source application that promises to apply any SummerBoard theme, as well as allow for some new amazing effects (ie. animated/changing backgrounds, theming batteries, sliders, etc.).

Here, I'll walk through installing WinterBoard and downloading a theme from Cydia to apply to the iPhone Springboard. I'll also show you a few of the different variations of theming that can be applied using WinterBoard.
[h3]Walkthrough
 [/h3][h4]1. Download WinterBoard from Cydia[/h4]
         
[h4]2. RESTART YOUR PHONE[/h4]
In order for WinterBoard to work correctly you MUST restart your phone after installation. To do this hold down the power button until the "slide to power off" slider appears. Power off the phone, and then press the power button again to turn it back on.


[h4]3. Open WinterBoard[/h4]
Tap the WinterBoard icon on the Springboard.


[h4]4. Apply Selected Theme(s)[/h4]
WinterBoard comes with a few built in themes. One is Saurik's own to show off changing backgrounds and other elements that WinterBoard is capable of. I say 'Theme(s)' in the title of this step because WinterBoard allows you to apply multiple themes at one time. For instance, you might apply one of Saurik's themes and also want 'Transparent Icon Labels'. You could select both, and elements from both would be applied to your Springboard.

   
[h4]5. Download Custom Themes From Cydia[/h4]

JB needs its own thread.

Will JB as soon as I get home. SBSettings and slanted lock is all I need.

Gat damn Cydia is slow as hell right now though. The weather app doesn't work for me. It's broke.

3 pages max. iPhone threads on NT are dead

You should check out intelliscreenX. One of the best tweaks out. Also sinfuliphone is where you can get all the info on JB.

I'm at work and the jailbreak won't run on my work laptop.

Oh, and my favorite tweaks.

Zephyr
Auxo
FolderEnhancer
NoNewsIsGoodNews

^^^ Auxo looks awesome! Im excited to give it a try. the Dev said he was working on an iPad version. That should be good too.

Cydia moving slow w/ all the recent traffic. Still good to be back Jailbroken though.

FINALLY thanks for the heads-up

whats the point of jailbreak now since you can even get free apps?

If you meant to say "can't", then yes, you can get free apps as well. One of the biggest perks. I haven't paid for an app since ios 2.
