5.5g theme?

[allanbav]

I wanted to ask if the themes located here
http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WpsIpod5g

would work on my Ipod G5.5? (v 1.2.1 if that is needed)

[Llorean]

Yes. The only restrictions on themes are those of the screen, since the 5.5G has the same size and bit depth screen, it's no problem.

Ok well in that case could anyone help me install the " jClix" theme?
I want to make sure I do this right.

To use the jClix theme, you will need to install a build with the proper patches so that the theme will display properly.  You can find a build with the patches applied in the Unsupported Builds forum.

The patch on the fourm does not exist anymore.

Here is the link to the theme.

Correct me if im wrong but I am supposed to download The "Theme package " and the "jbuild" and extract those files to the root of my ipod overwriting everything.

Am I correct?

[mightybrick]

You are correct.

[allanbav]

Hmm well I did it and a problem arose.
The first thing it tells me is that their is no Partition and that I should plug a usb to fix.

This is getting really frustrating...

What were you doing when it(?) told you there is no partition, and what exactly was the error message?  The way you have described your problem is very unclear.

[allanbav]

Hmm lets see.
If we could I would like to start from the begining.

I want to install the jClick Theme which can be found
http://pijulius.blogspot.com/2006/08/jclix-rockbox-themes-ipod-video.html

I downloaded the jClix Theme Package and the Rockbox jBuild from the site. After that all I did was unzip the files to the root of my iPod, overwriting anything that winrar prompted. Once finished I unpluged my iPod and waited for it to load back up. However it didnt boot back up properly it brought up a screen that prompted "No Partition found, plug in the USB and fix this"

I went ahead and uninstalled Rockbox. I wont install it again untill I know exactly what to do. To be honest im sorta giving up on Rockbox. lol I badly need help.

Thanks Mightybrick for helping.

We DO NOT SUPPORT UNOFFICIAL BUILDS.

If you download something from another site, or the unsupported build forum, and then have problems using it, contact the person providing you with the build.

[allanbav]

Even If I got it off the Rockbox site?

caps are fun! :d

[Llorean]

The theme is irrelevant. Notice that I said we do not support unofficial builds.

[allanbav]

Touche.

I guess ill just crawl into a corner and figure this out the inefficient way.

Or, post your question in the thread for the jbuild in the "Unsupported Builds" forum.

I am afraid that Julius created his builds when there were no 5.5 g iPods yet. Since 5.5gs are not fully compatible with 5g (esp. partition issues) the builds won't work on your iPod. You need to get (create?) Rockbox patched to work with 5.5g AND themes by Julius.

I don't know if there is such a build, try looking at unofficial builds forum.
