Step 1 - Install themes on your phone
You can either choose to install themes over the air via phone's data connection (need a data plan) or download the theme to your PC via internet, connect your phone and install via PC Suite. To start with i have three links here -
Download Nokia 5800 Original Blue Theme
Download Nokia 5800 Original Black Theme
Download Nokia 5800 Original Red Theme
Step2 - Changing your current theme to the new one you just installed
Press the harware menu button on your phone which is the middle one between the green and the red one. This will bring up the 'Menu' screen.
Now, you have to press the Settings icon.
Press the Personal icon from the available listed options.
Press on the Themes icon from the listed options.
Press on the General icon from the available listed options.
The one with a green check mark from the listed themes is your current theme. You can press on other available themes to see a preview.
Previewing the theme. Click again on the selected theme to set it up as the new theme.
Once you have previewed a theme, you can move on to other themes to preview them or tap again on the previewed theme to set it as your new theme. You will notice that the green check mark will start showing against it.
Selected blue as my new theme. See the green check mark showing against it.
Now select Options -> Theme Effects -> On. This will set sliding and animated transitions to screen changes and various other menu selections etc. This will however eat more of RAM on your phone.

Dear friend can you tell me how to delete a theme from my phone please. Thanks!
Simple go to Application Manager and remove it from there as you remove other installed applications.
thanks but when I go to the file manager I go to every folder and to installed files and it’s empty so I can’t delete the themes
Application Manager is not the File Manager.
Menù > Settings > Application Mgr > Installed apps.
Sir Giorgio thanks I tried what you told me and thanks to Mr . Anunay also but I tried that and let’s say I’m using the theme called Dynamic Wave and there’s no Application called like that in there. So I still can’t delete any theme that I don’t want. But yeah there are many app there like nokia maps, qik and many more except the themes. So I don’t know what else to try…….
Try to use the Nokia PC Suite – Install Application program.
