Open HUD and find Advance setting - For gnome tweak tool.

Did you place your theme and icon on correct place?

This is manual step to change icon and theme using terminal on ubuntu.

Change Icon

Enable the default Faience icon theme with this command:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme 'Faience'

For Faience-Azur:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme 'Faience-Azur'

For Faience-Ocre:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme 'Faience-Ocre'

For Faience-Claire:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme 'Faience-Claire'

Change Theme

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'Holo'

gconftool-2 --set --type string /apps/metacity/general/theme 'Holo'

#Replace holo-theme with your Folder theme name

Thank you I can change icon on my ubuntu now but I still cannot change my theme on my ubuntu and I had already install Advance setting but just not response.
