If you have the theme delivered as a flashable zip (which for that ROM is the way I'd do it) you can do it as follows:

* copy the theme .zip to your SD card
* go into recovery
* take a backup
* install zip from sd & choose the theme .zip as the file to install

The UOT theme replaces a couple of key files from your ROM with modified versions. It's therefore important to take a nandroid backup (recovery backup) before flashing, because if you did anything wrong when making the theme the ROM won't boot. If this happens, just restore your nandroid backup and you are fine. I mention this because the first "boot loop" I ever got myself into was when I messed up a UOT theme, so I learned the hard way

Hey hadron theme will affect my installed apps or setting?
I mean it remain installed or not? ?
B'z I don't want to install it again ...
And in uot kitchen if I want change some of things then it remain same as system or not? ?

All a UOT theme does is change some of the graphics. It doesn't affect any apps or settings.

It replaces 2 system apps with versions containing the modified images. So once you install it it is there until you change the ROM.

Do take a nandroid before applying the theme though.
