It is a bit easier to install and remove themes with Preware. I would recommend using that.
You can get it here: http://install.preware.org/

In preware, tap the app menu in the top left corner, select manage feeds, turn prethemer and precentral themes to on. You might also have to go into preferences and turn themes to on.

Click the tab at the top left of screen and click "Manage Feeds". Scroll down until you see the feeds "PreThemer" and "PreCentral Themes" (at least I think that is what they are called. Just find the feeds that say "theme" in them) and enable them. Now back gesture to go back to the main screen and it will ask you to update your feeds, do it. If it doesn't ask, click the tab at the top left again and hit "Update Feeds".

Hope this helps! Enjoy theming!
