What you need: 1. Correctly installed P2k drivers. Check out Getting Started > Installing P2k Drivers if you have not installed them yet 2. Skin Manager (skiman). Click here to download 3. A compatible skin package. We have skins for 176 x 220 phones (L7, V3, V3i, E398, Rokr etc), here: Skins Section
How to Install:
1. Both Skiman and the skins come as compressed archives, either in zip, rar or 7z format. Extract all files from the Skiman archive to a separate folder, then extract all files from the skins package to a different folder.
2. Run Skiman and connect your phone. Skiman will start reading your phone's file system and display your currently installed skin as shown.
3. Click on Install.
4. In the options displayed next, uncheck all options in order to stick to the skin's default configuration. You may change them if you know what you are doing. Press OK
5. Now go to the folder where you have extracted all the skins files. Select the file that is appearing there (.ski file).
Sometimes when the skin comes as a whole mod package with many screensavers etc, you wont see the .ski in the root folder. It will, in that case be in a folder named system or skins. Incase those folders are not there and you will do not see any .ski or .dat files, look around in all folders that come in the skin package, one of them will have some dat and ski files. Point skiman to the .ski file in that folder.
6. Wait until the installation has been completed, then restart your phone
7. Go in settings > personalize > Skins and apply your new skin

Applying mma_ucp of the skin:
In some skins, especially with 1x1 (fullscreen) icons, you will see that the main menu is kind of buggy. Some icons are full screen and matching with the skin, while some appear smaller or out of place. That is because the skin has been made by the author according to his menu layout. In such a case, the author would provide a file named mma_ucp with the skin. If you are sure that the mma_ucp is for your phone, do this:
1. Click on Menu Files tab in skiman
2. Click on Download. Keep it as a backup.
3. Now click on Upload. Browse to where the the mma_ucp file from the skins package is located. Select it and press Open
