I have a Sansa Clip Zip from maybe about 6-7 years ago, running Rockbox 3.11 with theme "ti83" by Nathan Korth. I unfortunately cannot seem to find this theme on the website today. Is there any way to get it back?
-
So you still have the Clip Zip with this theme on it?
Can you not just copy the relevant theme files (cfg, wps, sbs) from it to the computer?
-
I can't find it on the theme website either but I still have it on my computer and Clip Zip if someone needs it.
I don't know if the author deliberately removed it from the theme website. If you want to ask him : https://www.nkorth.com/

It clearly stopped working some time ago (at least by 2014, according to the post below).
Does it have a permissive licence in it? If so, it could presumably be updated/recreated.

According to the theme upload site (https://themes.rockbox.org/upload.php):
In line with the spirit of Rockbox itself, all themes on this website are freely redistributable (in both modified and unmodified forms) without any restriction (e.g. commercial/non-commercial) on their use.
By uploading your theme to this site, you are agreeing to license your work under the following license:
Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported License
That's been there since 2009, according to the wayback machine. If it was uploaded after that time, I don't think there is an issue with re-uploading it.

Hum I must be amnesic.
I actually already talked about this theme and issue back to 2014: https://www.rockbox.org/irc/log-20140421
I contacted the author on 21/04/2014:
Hello there,
I wanted to know why your TI83 theme is not available anymore on the rockbox website?
Did you remove it intentionally?
http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php/topic,48168.0.html suggests that it was no longer working. I can help you fixing it if necessary. I already fixed several themes here http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php/board,24.0.html which were broken due to kugel’s commit http://git.rockbox.org/?p=rockbox.git;a=commit;h=4e1c690

His reply:
Hi!
I guess I was too busy to figure out why the theme was broken. I haven't used my Sansa in a while.
It'd be awesome if you could help fix it! Thankfully, I still have the files https://www.dropbox.com/s/9dmi4j63fs71ko6/theme-ti83.zip
But it looks like I didn't fix and re-upload the theme afterwards :(
Will see if I find time and motivation to fix it..
edit: almost done at fixing it!

Now just have to hope the original poster (GigaG) actually comes back to find it!
