Jailbreaking can be one of the best things you can do for your iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad but it can get  complicated and confusing if you aren't familiar with the programs or terms that are used. If you only jailbreaking for the themes, there is now a way to do so without jailbreaking. This method takes much longer than jailbreaking and using Winterboard, as each icon must be separately added for each app you have.

Guide

1. Download and install iPhone Explorer (supports Mac and PC).
2. Plug your device into your computer via USB cord.
3. On the left side of iPhone Explorer, you will see a folder directory. Go to iPhone/Apps/(name of app you want to change) / /(name of app you want to change).app/. For example: MyiPhone/Apps/Safari/Safari.app/
4. There, you will see a file named icon@2x.png. Rename this to bakicon@2x.png. This is so that if something goes wrong, you will have the original icon still in your device to revert back to.
5. Now get the icon you want to change the original Safari to (you can get themes by clicking here). It should be on your desktop, rename it to icon@2x.png
6. Take that file from your desktop and drop it into iPhone Explorer.
7. If it is the first time you are doing this, reboot your device and make sure it works or else keep repeating steps 3-6 for every app you have.

The Suave theme by Thyraz combines simpicity with elegance with its simple rounded icons and matte style. This theme very closely resembles Matte Nano, a theme by Shubham Kedia. Suave features an included wallpaper, over 130 icons, status bar, icon overlays, and page indicators.

The minimalistic theme won't hog the large amounts of resources that other larger themes will. The small icons allow you to add Five Column Springboard (see below) to fit more icons on to each page of your homescreen.

Pogoplank is a complete Springboard replacement designed to simplify your homescreen by categorizing your apps in to folders that spin around a central wheel. Though Pogoplank is pretty new and unknown to many users, the themes that have been created for Pogoplank make it look like a good alternative to the plain Springboard.

EightOS by Nick Knight and Brendon Cunnigham is intended to be a complete theme for your device, coating almost every aspect of your device. EightOS comes in trial and full versions each with their own variety of six colors to uniquely coat your device.

EightOS was inspired by:

First, graphically by a Rainmeter UI called Omnimous. I have mainly taken the look of this UI as an influence (yes it is a lot like Windows 7 Mobile) as it is simple, functional and looks amazing!
Second, Navigationally (and idealistically) by K.Nitsua & Zaussers Inspired OS which unless you have been living under a mountain is one of the most amazingly different OS changes to the iPhone I have ever seen. The main things I have taken from iOS are the navigation concept and layout. By Entombed Sh4dw
