Sony Ericsson Theme Maker
by Rhoy Pamparo on Mar.02, 2009, under Personal Thoughts
Wanted to share a great resource I found for Sony Ericsson cellphones. Its the “unofficial theme maker” that Sony developers are sharing to other users.
Here’s the download link for both Mac & Windows version: http://developer.sonyericsson.com/getDocument.do?docId=70025
You can also attach a ring tone to the theme. Unfortunately, some companies here in Canada (not sure for the rest of the world) lock the phone so that you can only use DRM-protected tunes as supposed to straight-up mp3 that phones would happily play. The good news is that Sony developers are all kind and very helpful to the user community. They are providing this link for “DRM Packager” that will take an MP3 and put DRM for use as ringtone.
Follow the steps here: http://cellphoneforums.net/sony-ericsson/t263402-mp3-your-ringtones-w580i.html
Here are the download link for,
MAC: http://developer.sonyericsson.com/getDocument.do?docId=76996
Win: http://developer.sonyericsson.com/getDocument.do?docId=76997
This is a theme that I tested, it’s not as fancy but I’m getting there. Make sure you right-click and do a “Save link as”, the browser might try to load it and it’s not pretty!

Denis, I had the same problem for about 2 weeks and then one day it just worked again. I think you have to be patient.
