How to SFTP Winterboard themes

1. install OpenSSH
(from list of apps available from Cydia)

2. install winterboard
(from list of apps available from Cydia)

3. Get a SFTP program to SSH to your iphone from your computer
(MAC FuGu--Wiki Guide / PC WinSCP--Wiki Guide) Transmit will work also

4. SFTP settings: Server will be your IP address of your iphone, User = root, password = dottie or alpine.
(get your iphones IP address from Settings->Wifi->click the arrow next to the wifi network you are connected to. you'll then see your IP address)

5. Winterboard themes go in /Library/Themes/ , this is the directory you'll place your themes. each theme should have it's own folder.

thanks... i just finished reading your reply to someone else's question about the same problem... is transmit ok to use or should i use fugu? i know it's a lot to ask, but can you walk me through setting up & using transmit or fugu?..

I use and love Transmit, But its not free.
Fugu is free and the wiki guide is pretty good. Give it a try and report back

ok... for some reason when i did a search for tranmit, i was able to go to the apple download site and download it for free v. 3.6.7... just in case, i also downloaded fugu... i guess we'll start w/transmit... i have transmit opened and put in all the info you posted (just one question, under user do i put "root" or is that the root to something else)?.. and i have the theme download on my desktop... what's the next step?

[Broomhead]

Correct the user is root
Server = your ip
user = root
Password = alpine
Port = 22
protocol = SFTP
