Hi!,:D i have an htc wildfire s. i love the fact that we have skins, but im not so much " in to" the ones they have on Htc hub. I love the color pink.,and would love to have a pink skin. Unfortunately , when I download skins from google play, they are no where to be found in my phone. I've tried everything. :(
Can someone please maybe explain Whut I'm doing wrong, or if the wildfire s suppprts them?

Thanks! :dontknow::dontknow::argh:
 
Skins in Google play are called launchers. You need the launcher apps before you install the different skins. My 2 favorite are Go launcher and ADW launcher. Check it out
 
Google play reads that they are for all sense devices. Says nothing about needing a launcher. My phone is not rooted. And I like everything about my phone, juss want to chsnge skin to pink. I'm so confused.
 
Do you mean that you want the writings, battery & apps to be in pink?? If that's the case, you need to root the phone. THere is no other way.
Which one in particular are you looking at? Give me the link and I'll tell you what is needed.
 
Oh, I want to thank you for taking time and helping me. So thanks vary much. You have no idea. I've been ripping my hair out over this. -.-
 
Hey I actually like the link you gave at xda!! Thanks! I think I'll use it!
For you to install it, it's pretty simple.
First download 'Astro file manager'. That will allow you to install the skin you want. After that download the file that is in the xda forum and make sure the extension is .apk and not .zip. If it's .zip, just change it to .apk manually.
Once downloaded, transfer it on the root of your SD card.
Then open the Astro manager and long press the file you just transfered. It should give you an option to install.
And voila! Once installed, you can use it!

Hit the thanks if it helped ;)
 
Whut do you mean by root of SD card? Should I be doing this on a computer?
And thanks. :) xda actually has a lot of cool skins. If you'd like I can give you the link.
