The theme that you're trying to install is for Non-Touchscreen phones, while the specs of the Viva say that is a Touchscreen phone - so they may not work.

How to Install Windows Mobile Themes
For Windows Mobile, the themes come in two kinds with extensions - .hme and .tsk - HME is for non-touchscreen phones while the TSK is used on touchscreen phones.


To 'Install' the themes, all that you've got to do is to copy the theme file in the Windows folder on the phone. This can be done by using the "Explore" option from ActiveSync or accessing the "Mobile Device" from "My Computer" on your PC.

Once this is done, the theme will be available for selection in the Today menu.

In the Today Menu, highlight the Theme you wish to apply and tap "OK" in the upper right-hand corner of the screen. The Theme will apply to the UI. You're done!

Note: .TSK files must be installed to either the Windows or My Documents folder on your Pocket PC to be functional

You can play games for Windows Mobile 6.1 (or Pocket PC games) on your phone - but if you want to play the Java games which you can download from here, you'll need some emulator like JBED or Intent Java MIDlet Manager
