Broken Themes
You may run into themes that do not work, this means 1 of 2 things:
1. The theme is broken, or
2. The theme uses
patches or features not currently part of SVN.
If after checking to make sure you have the correct build, the theme still does not work you can:
1.request the author fix the theme via email, a forum post or PM etc.
2.fix the theme yourself, you can use a simulator to help you (use the --debugwps switch) :
http://rasher.dk/rockbox/simulator
If you have fixed a theme, the updated version should be uploaded here (only, if the license is compatible, i.e.: CC-by-SA, GPL, etc.).
Please honour the original author's intent and don't upload a "fix" which changes features or behavior. If you wish to modify a theme in this manner rerelease it under a new name.
Useful links for editing themes
Important
In case the theme you choose does not include the required font you should install the Rockbox font pack (install it the same way as a rockbox build).
Download Rockbox Font Pack
Table of Contents
ROCKboxed
Version 1.1
This theme is inspired by the Rockbox logo. Originally created and tested on an iPod nano. I've modified it and tested for the Sansa e200 using the uisimulator software.
- Download: rockboxed-176x220x24.zip (version 1.1)
- Version 1.1: Now uses Nimbus font family for multi-language support.
- License: GNU GPL v2
- This theme disables the default statusbar in both the WPS and "Files and Menu" screens.

RettumBox
A theme I made a couple of months ago and have been using since then.
Battery meter in 8 steps, volume in 10, hold key icon, and alternating codec info (8 secs) and next song info (2 secs).
Enjoy!
Added an alternate background and backdrop (wps/RettumBox/bg_alternate.bmp and backdrops/RettumBox_alternate.bmp), which need proper renaming to make them work. Also added wps/RettumBox/bg.png, the original layered copy (editable in Fireworks) which may be useful for porting.

* Known Issue: User needs to "Clear Backdrop" upon selecting theme.
Plain & Simple w/ Progress Bar
Back by singular request, it's the original pretty-dull theme. Album art size is 158x158. Helvetica 15 is clean and very legible. Progress bar is a lively grey. Feel free to modify it to use conditional viewports so it doesn't look super-lame when there's no album cover.

The worst theme ever made! Illustrates the beauty of pixel-point text placement by having the song title and artist streaming in and out of Oprah's mouth. I took the photo myself, unsure of who's responsible for the paste-up.

RettumBrokenGlass
When I first installed
RockBox and started playing around with the themes, the biggest worry on my mind was breaking my Sansa. So, inspired by that fear, I bring you my first theme Rettum Broken Glass. This is based on the RettumBox theme with my own custom background added. Enjoy!

Razor
I made this theme with transparency in mind, it's purpose is to display album art while still conveying a good amount of info. This theme has four versions, One version has equal length Artist/Title bars, while the other is slightly more irregular, the remaining two are the same, but each has the codec and bitrate information removed.
- Version: 1.0
- Download: Razor.zip (NOTE:This Zipfile contains all four themes, unzip it and choose which one you would like to use, and then unzip that to your Sansa)

arboxWidgets
This theme was ported from the iPod Video version. It was created with the goal of displaying as much control information as possible, also including some Rockbox powerful features, not so usually displayed in other themes, such as crossfade or replaygain modes. Each �widget� allows a quick visual setting�s control or information status check. Works on recent official builds. Better with 75x75 album art size. Enjoy!

2001
Download:
2001.zip
This is a simple theme based on the movie "2001: A Space Odyssey". The WPS features the lovable HAL 9000 computer, using its logo as a progress bar, and the "1 of 2" line alternates with some information about the file (eg, "128kbps MP3"). 2001 should work with any current official build.
This theme is licensed under the GNU GPL, version 2 or later.

Parilis
This is a port of my H10 theme Parilis. Includes 4 different themes: Skull, Lake, Blue, and Sunset. Extra features include codec info on hold switch, clock in upper right will tell you playback mode, date in bottom right will change to playlist name if available. Multifont edition uses a smaller version of nimbus instead of the system font for a cleaner look, and also takes advantage of user definable list positions.
Download:
parlis-svn-1.0.zip
uses 100x100 album art

BlacknBlue Glass
Download:
Black n Blue Glass
This theme is originally made by Jiiprah. It's dark themed, but looks very classy due to the transparency. The main backdrop has some lovely details on the right side. I modified it to use conditional viewports, bitmap strips and a slightly bigger album art (and bug fixes). The WPS changes and shows a bit more info if there's no album art.
Update: 26th July 2008: Fixed an issue with the volume graphics (thanks to BdN3504)
License: I asked Jiiprah about the license, and he said: "GPL...if you prefer not to use GPL then CC works fine", so license is:

This theme is basically just a quick thing I put together to put the feel of Ubuntu in my sansa. This theme does support album art; it replaces the Ubuntu symbol in the corner when it is present. Feel free to do whatever you want with this theme, just be sure and give me credit if you upload any themes derived from it.

AmaroK



(ported from the
Gigabeat version)
A mimic of KDE4.1 (www.kde.org) and amarok1.86 (amarok.kde.org). Pressing hold while Album Art is present shows the detailed information like when no AA is present. Album Art is 75x75, this theme works with the current ROCKbox build. There are 2 themes in the zip, amarok and amarok-lrg. Amarok version uses the 12x12 icons and 12-Lucidia-sans-Bold font, Amarok-lrg uses 16x16 icons and 14-Lucidia-sans Bold font.

Plain Text VP
Download:
Plain Text VP
This is a slightly modified version of my previous theme "Plain Text", but using view ports this time (yes, that's the VP in the name). The theme strives to be as simplistic as possible (at least concerning the number of images it uses - yes, it's 0), but on the other hand to display as much as possible in a readable way. The used color is yellow - it's easier to read than white; labels are displayed in darker color to make them less distractive. The display area is divided into sectors: status of the player is displayed in the corners, and the main part is divided by the progressbar and the peakmeter into three areas. The first area displays the most important information about the currently played song, the second area contains some additional information, and, finally, the last area displays information about the following song. I'd like to thank to advcomp2019 for his comments and that he reminded me that I should update the theme :-).

Widecabbie
Download:
Widecabbie 1.2
This is a mod of Cabbie 2.0 with a number of changes:
- A far larger font - 19-Nimbus (remember to download the font pack!).
- Orange colours for most text.
- Uses 168x84 album art, which I create by merging album art with an artist picture from last.fm. You could also use it to show front and back cover.
- It looks fine with square album art as well (you'll still have to use cover.168x84.bmp or similar if you have multiple sizes).
- Works great with GNU Unifont without any changes - many other fonts look fine as well.
- Next song is shown in grey.
Version 1.1 (2008-12-10):
- Only show next track info is any is available and adapt to the unused space in AA and non-AA mode.
Version 1.2 (2008-01-26):
- Show a large volume meter when changing volume
- The text in the WPS now uses the same colour as the menu (changeable by the user)

Jack
 |
Info |
"Jack" is a flat black/white/red theme, named for the master of the b/w/r colour scheme. I have slowly started porting my old Ipod nano
"Jack" theme to the Sansa - the "info" version being the first in the row.
Features
- Functional, flat and stylish - well, kinda sorta like the sansa
- All info conditionalized (e.g. title is replaced by filename if there is no title in ID3 tag)
- Volume is displayed by the wheel in upper left corner turning red
- A high number of volume and battery levels for smooth animation
- New icon series - all playing states covered (shuffle, repeat all, repeat shuffle, repeat one...)
Download
- Basic version - still to come
- Info version
- Album Art version - still to come

- When sleep timer is set the clock display will alternate between the current time and the remaining time on the sleep timer.
- Status Icons on the WPS were moved closer together to allow room for the Clock/Sleep timer display.
- Themes use the same Icon set and font as Widecabbie (these are not included in the zip file).
