How to change themes on your Sony Ericsson C902


It's quick and easy to transform the look and feel of your Sony Ericsson C902 by installing new themes - we show you how

Published on Jul 7, 2008

Do you want to customise your Sony Ericsson C902? With just a few button presses you can alter the appearance of the menus and standby screen of the phone, simply by changing its theme.

The Themes feature included on the C902 enables you change the whole look and feel of your phone's display and menu system in just a few moments. Most themes include a wallpaper image, colour scheme and screensaver. With the C902, certain themes also provide 'haptic feedback' - a slight vibrating buzz - when you're scrolling through the main menu options.

As with most Sony Ericsson handsets, the C902 comes pre-loaded with a selection of swappable themes. You can also download new ones directly from Sony Ericsson straight to the phone, or from other content providers such as your mobile network operator, or third party websites.

There are numerous themes available online, with many free to download, covering an enormous range of subjects, from favourite sports teams or celebrities to top movies or abstract art. You can search for themes and copy them to your phone, using the same procedure to install them outlined below.

To select or change a theme:

  • From the standby page select Menu (Figure 1)
  • From the main Menu screen select Settings (Figure 2).
  • Scroll across to Display.
  • Scroll down to Theme (Figure 3) and press Select.
  • Scroll down to the theme you want to use and press Set (Figure 4).

Alternatively, on the Themes menu page, select the Sony Ericsson option at the top of the list to access a selection of new themes to download. This will involve going online so be prepared for additional data charges if you are not on an unlimited data plan.

Once you've selected your Theme, it will take a few seconds to be set (Figure 5), but then your menus, wallpaper and display colour scheme will all change (Figure 6).

Press the End key to get back straight to your new-look standby screen (Figure 7).

You can easily swap the Theme back to the original, or any of the others, simply by following the same procedure described above.
