bleh, noob screws up again...

1. don't post multiple threads of the same issue. the other one has been deleted.
2. you can attempt to (with the phone flip closed obvioulsy) re-write the files to the phone completely
(make sure you do not have any other programs running while working with the phone as this may be the likely culprit of the computer freezing up)
3. if all else phails, you may be able to flash the phone. but before you go about doing that, we need to know what is the current firmware on your phone.

edit: i just noticed that you are with ATT/Cingular. Were you attempting to add/overwrite a SKIN? Becuase when you say "theme" that is only applicable to Verizon phones. (menu theme hacks)

I would try what teddy said...sounds like the problem i had sortof main screen was black except top of it...done master reset like he said and everything went back to normal...I don't know if there is a seem edit on yours to change the skin (Seem 29cb bytes 0000)for alltel i have learned that that also works and you don't have to MR ur phone. Let me know something here so i know if that applies to urs also. If the seem edit does work it will show up on the upper right hand side of ur seem editor and show a system dir path to a skin folder

Thx.

you would have to know how to convert Ascii -> binary actually

01100001 = a = 97 (Decimal)
01100010 = b
01100011 = c
01100100 = d
01100101 = e
01100110 = f
01100111 = g
01101000 = h
01101001 = i
01101010 = j
01101011 = k
01101100 = l
01101101 = m
01101110 = n
01101111 = o
01110000 = p
01110001 = q
01110010 = r
01110011 = s
01110100 = t
01110101 = u
01110110 = v
01110111 = w
01111000 = x
01111001 = y
01111010 = z = 122 (decimal)

those are all the lower case letters. the upper case letters start out at the binary equivalent of 65 (in decimal).
periods are: 00101110
forward slash (/) is: 00101111
spaces are: 00100000

note that each ascii character is represented by 8 binary bits. There are 8 bits in a byte, and furthermore, there are 2hex characters in a byte. 8 bits can be checked in seem editor, therefore each offset represents ONE byte and therefore represents ONE ascii character.

you can covert from ascii to binary here:
http://www.theskull.com/javascript/ascii-binary.html

you can convert from binary -> hex -> decimal here:
http://www.easycalculation.com/hex-converter.php (or you can use your scientific view on windows calculator)

also note that the binary values you get will be listed as a string running from "bit 7" to "bit 0" (for each grouping of 8 bits), however your seem editor will have the check boxes ordered from "bit 0" to "bit 7"

thats a lot of trouble to go through just to change a directory path

Check out the 2 pics and dl em teddy that should help you on what i was saying...If you change the wording were the arrow is at it will change the applied skin. M.o.t.o or whatever all the periods have no bits checked in their offsets. I know that there has to be a period between each letter and the first letter needs to be CAPS...
