The MacBook Air Keyboard mod will change your stock keyboard to a black and silver keyboard that resembles a MacBook Air keyboard. I was able to install and uninstall this keyboard with no issues.

Note: If you have a custom keyboard already installed, make sure you uninstall it before installing the MacBook Air Keyboard.

Your iPhone should be unlocked/jailbroken in order to use WinterBoard. Winterboard on iPhone (like its predecessor Summerboard for iPhone 1.1.4) is an iPhone theme manager that allows you to change any WinterBoard/SummerBoard theme on iPhone. See instruction on how to install WinterBoard via Cydia.

Your keyboard theme still in the “unactive” condition. To activate it, just launch Winterboard and select “MacBook Air Keyboard”. Your WinterBoard will verify with mark symbol.
