1. Make folder (Name it what you want)

2. Make folder in first folder (Call it, Bundles)

3. Make another folder in Bundles folder (call it, com.apple.springboard)

4. Inside the com.apple.springboard Folder you will need 2 images one should be around 62x62 and be called FolderIconBG.png and the other should be 320x480 and be called FolderSwitcherBG.png

5. use any ssh program and navigate to var/stash/themes and add it.

6. activate in winterboard and enjoy.

  • To change the folder icon shape for ios 4.3.3 you need these 4 files and dimensions. Save them in the com.apple.springboard folder in Bundles

  • why the hell would u want to do this...? It's ugly...

  • Can You Make Me A theme

  • can you please do a tutorial on how to do color mods to themes. If its too hard to where you need to really know what you are doing, then never mind.

  • @radomer Right now I don't know but I am researching how to do that. Or you can use a Cydia app called categories which makes different pictures for each folders and does not show the 9 mini icons.

  • @Poppinheads124 I can make 9 mini icons DISSAPEAR (good) . I can change the FOLDERS icon view in my device (good) but i want to have different icons to each folder. How can i do that?
