A lot people seem to be having trouble uninstalling themes on the newer S60v3 Nokia phones.
Here is a guide on how you can delete those theme files and recover valuable space on your Memory Card.
I had used a different method of Trial and Error a long time back, but since then as the problem was global, a lot of people have come up with easy guides to do this. Since i own a Nokia 3250, most of this guide is based on Nokia 3250, which works even on all other phone model with a little bit of change.
1. Connect the Phone to the Computer using the Data Transfer mode. The mode where you can access the Memory Card as a Removable Drive mode.
2. Make sure that Hidden Files and Folders are visible. If they are not, heres how you can enable this option.Open My Computer and Navigate to
Tools > Folder Options > View > Show hidden files and folders
Check that option and click on apply.
3. In my computer Navigate to your Memory card drive. In the Memory Card, there will be a Hidden folder called Private. Inside that, there will be many folders named with differend numbers and letters. One of these folders contains all the themes inside a folder names import. On 3250, the theme folder is 10207114. Maybe it may be the same folder on the other phons also, if this is not the folder, just search for "Import" and Navigate to that folder.My Computer > Removable Disk (the memory card) > Private (it's a hidden folder) > 10207114 > Import
4. Inside the Import folder, you will find various folders with names like dc60815d47351ce2. Each of there folder corresponds to one theme.
5. Open each folder and you'll see in the contents 4 files: a settings file, a .mbm file, a .mif file and a .skn file. The 4 files have in their title the theme name.
6. Find the theme you want to delete, and delete the Folder containing the theme.
7. Delete all the themes you want to delete, Eject your Drive .
Thats it, those themes have been deleted now. You have recovered your Space .
