Skinning CDMA

by Village Idiot

Here is a quick guide to skinning the V3m, V3c, K1m, and L7c
This will only work with Motorola Phones that use the Motorola UI. Verizon uses a Brew Overlay that disables the Motorola UI and CAN NOT BE SKINNED.

What you need.

Motorola Software Update program or PST 7.2.3 (Google It)
Skinner4moto and the E815 Module
P2k Commander NOT THE BETA 4.1 Use version 3.3.0 or 3.3.5 The test version 4.1.xx is too buggy yet and will cause problems and a huge headache!!
BitPim

First get PST or MSU installed and make sure it can find the phone.

Next get Skinner4moto and the E815 module. Make sure that Skinner4moto can find the E815 module

Now go to the folder that you downloaded the skin to and next to the SKI. file you should see the spiked ball Icon. By clicking that icon will open up skinner4moto.

Now that it is open on the right side it gives 3 options for the wallpaper folder. Make sure that the IN/Motorola/Shared/Picture/ (E815) is selected.

Next in the left column is Font Fix. Click it.

Now also in the left column is the P2k commander star Icon with install under it.

Upon clicking that it will run P2k commander and start the install process. You will get a box that say Execute or Cancel.

Hit the Execute and the skin will be properly installed.

It will ask to do a restart on the phone. Yes restart it.

You should now have a new skin on your phone.

Now with the K1m and the L7c these phones have the mp3 player. Most skins you will find will not support the mp3 player. But it has been reported on the K1m that if skinned with a V3c skin that when the mp3 player is enabled the phone will automatically default to the last stock skin used to make the mp3 player work. And revert back to the V3c skin when the mp3 player is shut down.

As for the L7c all the steps should be the same. Its basicly a K1m with out the Flip.

Use BitPim to Delete the skin in BitPim's file tree.

Never Delete the DEFAULT MOTO SKIN!
Hope this helps out.
