1. Go to the theme thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=707
2. Select a theme and download.
3. Most of the themes are CWM installable. So, reboot to CWM recovery mode.
4. Choose zip from SD card and install.
5. Reboot device and VOILA!

Might want to ensure compatibility with your rom first...but other than that....follow previously stated instructions

i had the cyborgv6 rom its nice. as a cyborg rom to install should be like this:
First if you want make a back up with for ex. Titanium backup or something else.
1. if you dont have xrecovery or CWM recovery search and find them and install one of them. see here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=974527 or
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881614
2. download the stock kernel rom and put it on sd card.
3. Reboot to xRecovery (click back button on ericsson logo)/ ClockWorkMod(touch the screen instead of click)
4. Factory Reset (Full wipe) ------> For new users who want to this rom.
5. Install custom zip
6. Choose zip from sdcard
7. Find your zip file, and flash it.
(* If you have any bugs, try full-wipe.) For first time installing CyBorg users, DO FULL WIPE, or you will stuck at the se white logo!!

Are the instructions work the same? cause they have there a whole lot of files (Alfs Kernel Lastest v08a?)

same process! if you are in stock kernel(settings-about phone if its semc) just download only "Stock version rom in Attach Files " and follow the instructions
if i helped press, you know...

which of the files for download there is the rom? and how do I install the other files?

in the page you gave go to:
{
Downloaded:
LX v.0.11c(Alfs) LX v.0.11(Stock)
LXv0.10-Alfs LXv0.10-Stock
LX V11 GOOGLE APPS LX V11(ALFS)LX V11(STOCK)
LX XG!N V8(Stock)
LX V10(alfs)LX V10 (Stock)
}
LX v.0.11(Stock) THIS is the ROM for stock kernel just download it
the attached files (SensorPatch.zip ...) you can download them IF you want to make it better
by same procedure as to install, "put them on sd card-go to recovery - install custom zip-Find your zip file, and flash it-reboot" but not make Factory Reset (Full wipe) its unnecessary.
By the way on instructions i gave, from the step 4 till 8 are in the recovery. to go there follow the step 3 "Reboot and go to xRecovery by (click back button on ericsson logo) or on ClockWorkMod(touch the screen when you see ericsson logo)" you must have one of them if you already have a custom rom installed "GingerCruzt"

so i tried this;http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23788913&postcount=170 and everything works fine until i have to wipe data/factory reset i can do that i enter in that option and the only answer i can select is no
the same with superuser

You have to scroll it down. there is one option YES, but it's "below" screen..

If you are seeing clock work mod screen and a Number of no one upon other in many lines then swipe up your finger on screen because it's a touch recovery mod then you will are the yes option.
But after flashing with smart flash tool you have to just reboot.
You can flash a rom with already

Ok and now what should i do to install zeus,can i do that?

You can always install whichever rom you want. Just don't forget about wipes in CWM.
In Zeus thread, there are instructions in first post... It's easy. Zeus rom & updates are always as cwm zip, so you already know how to do this.

You will need 6.3 zip and latest 6.36 zip
You can choose version based on v20n or v20o
All instructions are given in his thread
Copy 6.3 zip and 6.36 zip to root of your SD card as you can not browse folders in depth in clock work mod recovery
If you don't know what is copying in root of SD card Google it its simple
now reboot your phone in ce recovery mod
Choose wipe data factory reset
Then chhose wipe catch
Then wipe dalvik catch by going in advance mod
Then return by go back button
Choose install zip from SD card
Choose 6.3
Flash by touching selecting yes
Then after finish of flashing reboot
Wait for some time after complete boot to stable the system
The same way flash I mean install 6.36 update
That's all

Help, please: Boot loop during Cyanogenmod zip install

Hello,
I'm not gonna panic, as I think Ive not bricked my phone YET.
Here is what I have done, I have a GALAXY S I9000.
Have been using it for quite some time now. 2 years ago, I have flashed it with - hardcore's kernel with the ClockworkMod Recovery - using Odin.
Today I decided to give Cyanogenmod a go, followed the steps here. - http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S:_Full_Update_Guide
Since I have the hardoce's kernel, I skipped this Installing the ClockworkMod Recovery - and moved on to - Flashing CyanogenMod.
I will go step by step from here.
Download the latest version of CyanogenMod.
Optional: Download the Google Apps for the device.
Place the CyanogenMod update.zip file on the root of the internal memory.
Optional: Place the Google Apps .zip on the root of the internal memory also.
Boot into the ClockworkMod Recovery.
Once the device boots into the ClockworkMod Recovery, use the side volume buttons to move around, and either the power button or the trackball to select.
Select the option to Wipe data/factory reset.
Then select the option to Wipe cache partition.
Select Install zip from sdcard.
done these, no problem so far.
[*]Select Choose zip from sdcard.
when I chose this, phone rebooted, it was so fast something may have come up and I didnt see.
Now I am stuck in a boot loop:
- Galaxy S I9000 samsung screen comes up, goes away for a second, comes up again.
- A page with code appearing from the bottom comes up really fast ( logo in the middle changes quickly) then it disappears.
- whole thing starts again.
UPDATE: I got a picture of the fast screen that comes up. : http://localhostr.com/files/b5NzFRy/2012-08-27 05.07.32.jpg
Some observations.
- I can go into download mode when opening it with the key combo.
- loop only stops when I unplug the battery
I need advice on what caused this and how to fix this, please help me.

are you not able to get into recovery? If only download than you need to get back to GB and than do a progressive update from GB to ICS to JB

Flash it again. From what I've heard, it only flashes the kernel the first time.

I had the same problem today with CM7 today. Just reboot in recovery and flash again cm zip, form there on everything is gonna run smooth!

1) DON'T WORRY !
2) Unplug the battery when bootlooping
3) Put the SGS in Recovery Mode (the CWM's version has changed)
4) Select the CM .zip and flash it AGAIN
5) When it's done, reboot system
This time, everything shoot be OK
Just be carefull with your IMEI (always have a backup of EFS folder !)

Anyone have a trick yet for CM 10.1 v.22 Nightly, I keep getting a bootloop on all their versions except the original one. This is so frustrating because I have to keep going back to stock and then update to ICS.

Same here, after the Samsung and CM logos, and splash animation, it says :
"Encryption unsuccessful.
Encryption was interrupted and can't complete. As a result, the data on your phone is no longer accessible.
To resume using your phone, you must perform a factory reset...."
After I tap Reset phone, it goes to CWM recovery.
Do the factory reset and the same thing occured in loop.
I came from JVU and CF root.

Please Help! Trying to flash Jellybean rom.

I have a rooted 2.2 Captivate with Clockwork mod version 2.5.1.2 installed. Rom manger acts as though everything is working but when I go to reboot into CWM recovery I get the stock 3e. I go to reinstall packages. I end up with "E:failed to verify whole-file signature" "E:signature varification failed" My intentions were to follow the instructions I found on Android Authority.
they are:
1. Copy the Devil RC3 kernel and the CyanogenMod 10 V2 ROM files to your Captivate’s internal SD Card.
2. Turn off your Captivate.
3. Boot into Recovery Mode. You can do this by pressing and holding down the Volume Up, Volume Down, and Power buttons. When the screen turns on, let go of all three buttons.
*I'm stuck at this point because it won't load CWM
4. In recovery, use the Volume keys to navigate and the Power button to select.
5. Make a NANDroid Backup of your current ROM. Select Backup and Restore and select Backup.
6. Select Wipe Data/Factory Reset. Confirm the action on the next page.
7. Select Install ZIP from SD Card.
8. Select Choose ZIP from SD Card and locate the Devil RC3 kernel.
9. After the Devil RC3 kernel has finished flashing, choose Install ZIP from SD Card again.
10. Select Choose ZIP from SD Card and locate the CyanogenMod 10 V2 ROM file.
11. After the CyanogenMod 10 V2 ROM file has finished flashing, select Go Back.
12. Select Advanced > Fix Permissions.
Return to main recovery menu and select Reboot System Now.
Thanks in advance.

I have a question. Do I need to flash the Devil RC3 kernel or should I just install the CyanogenMod 10 V2 rom from zip? Or should I flash the speedmod kernel on odin, then from CWM install the Devil RC3 kerenel, Then install CyanogenMod 10 V2. I just wondered if the two kerenels would conflict or if I would even need Devil RC3?

First of all you're getting a little ahead of yourself in trying to get to CM10 from where you are. Being on 2.2 you will need to get to a gingerbread ROM first as the bootloaders are different and will cause issues trying to go to CM10 if you don't go to gingerbread first.
The following link will take you to some one-click utilities that will update you to gingerbread along with the needed bootloaders. Also I suggest picking one from the list that says it has a CWM kernel injected so that you can save a step after the flash and have a CWM recovery kernel already installed.
Once you've used the one-click you shouldn't need to flash either of the kernels you've mentioned you should technically be able to just flash the CM10 and be good. Although when it comes to flashing the CM10 I suggest you go to the creaters thread or site and follow their exact directions for installing!

I highly recommend you install official cm instead. They are updated and will be more stable.
