Installation Flow & Gotchas

1. Prep → Enable "Allow custom themes" in Settings > Themes > Advanced. 2. Download → Open MTZ file manager, choose server 1 or 2, tap download. 3. Verify → File size ≈38.64 MB, checksum matches MD5 e3b0c... (optional). 4. Apply → Settings > Themes > My Themes > import MTZ → select file → Install. 5. Activate → Tap "Apply" → system restarts UI. 6. Test → Swipe right → layout flips; tap clock → cat emoji cycles. 7.
