1. CHARGE YOUR PHONE!!! Even with a full battery, there are "chances" that your battery may die before it finishes flashing due to longer bruteforcing times (bruteforcing = trying to crack passwords by trying extreme amounts of combinations, or sometimes a set dictionary, in just a few seconds. This can be quick if the password is one of the first words selected, or longer if it's a tougher password to crack).
2. Take out your SIMS card along with your memory card (May not be needed, but it's always a smart idea because glitches DO happen. Also, make sure you have a bit of memory space on your phone left, you won't need more than 5-10 MB to get by safely, so no worries). Then download
THIS . This .rar file is just a little pack of everything you're going to need to put these themes on, including a few extras.
3. Time for the trickier part. We need to update your USB drivers. If you've already previously updated them to flash them earlier with XS++, then just skip this step. If you're still new to XS++, then you will MOST LIKELY need to do this, though your USB drivers MAY be up to date.
To start, open the FlashThemes.rar file that I've supplied everyone in the above link and open up the USBFlashdriver folder, and drag/drop these two items into your "my documents" folder. They will just be their temporarily, don't worry. Now double click the XS++.exe file and whenever it select "USB" for that's how you're going to send the files to your phone.
Here's the tricky part though. Click "Connect" and the log that shows up should tell you take battery out.. hold C.. blah blah. Just make sure your phone is turned off, you took your SIMS card out, and you took your memory card out as well.
Then before connecting your phone to your computer via the USB cable, hold the "C" button ON YOUR PHONE! (not keyboard) and connect it to the USB, still holding the C button.
Now to install the USB drivers, right-click "My Computer" and click the "hardware" tab, followed by the "device manager" button. Down the list a bit, there should be an option that says "Other Devices" and it will say something like "unknown device" or "USB device". Whatever it is, if you don't have the USB driver.. it's unrecognized. I'm not POSITIVE what it says because I've gone through with it already, but in any case, rightclick it and click "Install (or update) Drivers". A window will come up asking if you want to install the driver automatically or manual (find the folder yourself). Check the second option (manually) and whenever it click the "Find directory manually" option, and where it has the "Browse" box.. simply tell it to browse under your "My Documents" folder. It should start and finish installing the drivers, and you're done with the hardest part of the tutorial.
Now you can delete those files you dropped into your "My Documents" folder if need be.
