Can't get most themes to work on my H320
« on: July 22, 2008, 02:02:10 PM »
I'm using the most current build and I've always had this problem, but it seems even more prevalent now.   Most themes simply don't work.  So to get this straight so its not user error...I select a theme by opening the Browse Themes Folder right?  The only two I get working with no hassle is the "space" and "calvin" which I mix together.  I downloaded a few themes just now and copied and pasted the right files into the right folders as they were in the zip...no dice, none of them work. 

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?  Thanks for any tips!

Most themes are broken because of a recent change in the WPS code - specifically, the addition of viewports; and not all themes have been updated to comform. There's a sticky in this thread that you should read that describes what to do about these broken themes.

A lot of the themes are using an old WPS syntax which no longer works on more recent builds. Those themes need to be updated to use the new WPS syntax, which is detailed on this page.

Basically, you just have to open the .wps file for the theme in a text editor, and find the lines that need to be changed. Fix them up, then save the .wps and try reloading it again from Rockbox.
