Make and use themes with WinterBoard
Section 6: Changing Wi-Fi signal strength icons


Updated: July 23, 2009

I'm going to use a theme on Cydia called MiWiFi (you can also download it here) to demonstrate how to change the Wi-Fi signal strength icons. In this case, eight graphics must be replaced to replicate the various signal levels on both black and white status bar backgrounds. These files are: Default_0_AirPort.png, Default_1_AirPort.png, Default_2_AirPort.png, Default_3_AirPort.png, FSO_0_AirPort.png, FSO_1_AirPort.png, FSO_2_AirPort.png, FSO_3_AirPort.png.



Step 1.

You should be at your Themes.xxxxxx folder. Create a new folder called Wi-Fi icons (color). Then go inside this folder.
