How to Install Whitoken on your iPod Touch or iPhone

You will need to first jailbreak, then install WinterBoard, and then add additional applications in order to install this theme. I will guide you through the process.

Part 1: Jailbreak and Install Cydia

In this part I will show you how to jailbreak and install Cydia on your iPod Touch/iPhone.

1. Download redsn0w, and check our guide on how to jailbreak your iPod Touch or jailbreak your iPhone.

Cydia

2. You should see the above Cydia icon on your  homescreen. Tap the Cydia icon.

Cydia - User/Hacker/Developer Mode

3. When Cydia first launches it will ask you to choose what mode you want to use.  Just tap User (Graphical Only). You can go back and change this later if you wish to.

Cydia Essential Upgrades

4. Cydia will now check for updates and present you with the above prompt saying something like 2 Essential Upgrades. Tap the “Upgrade Essential” button.

Cydia Upgrade - Confirm

5. Now Cydia will ask you to confirm your selection. Tap the Confirm button in the top right.

Cydia - Restart

6. Cydia will now start updating. Once the update is complete it will show a “Complete” message. You will need to restart Cydia, tap the Close Cydia (Restart) button.

    Simply amazing. Took a while to set up properly, but I did not run into any problems (just make sure you reboot after the first SSH session so all the shortcut arrows are there).

    Now I just have to maintain the whole thing, make sure I keep things organized every time I install a new app or game. But that’s ok.

    Thank you for that thorough turorial and congrats on the theme!! :)

    Upon adding the url, “http://cydia.touch-mania.com/” I got an error stating it

    “Did not Find Repository”
    “The indicated repository could not be found. This could be because you are trying to add a legacy Installer repository (these are not supported).Also, this interface is only capable of working with exact repository URLs. If you host a repository and are having issues please contact the author of Cydia with any questions you have.

    I am curently modifiying my theme with a few selfmade icons, and I’ve noticed that the icons on screen get overlapped by the icons on the right, blocking out the name of the icon. How do I fix it.

  17. Tehk says:

    Cydia just goes to home page randomly while I am downloading these components. It is really annoying.

  18. dadadada says:

    How do you get the pages 0, 1, 2, 3, icons to appear on every page. I could only get them to appear on one page.
