So I can't get any themes to work on my Blackberry. Here is the run down.
I have a 7100g I have updated my software to 4.1. I have downloaded a plazmic reader and downloaded many different themes for my phone. I have also done a hard reset many times. They are not appearing under themes. I can go to advanced options and applications and they are in there. Everything is set to allow and still nothing. Can someone please help with my dilemma. It would be greatly appreciated.

PLEASE be patient. 30 mins is short compared to the amount of time it takes for some posts to be answered.


Thanks

Are you loading these themes OTA or DM?

Do you have other theme(s) installed currently on your phone?
If so how many? If you do happen to have other theme(s) loaded on your phone remove one or two of the current theme(s) and try loading the new one. Your phone does have limits on how many theme(s) it can store or use at any one time. The limit of course will depend on many factors like how many other apps you have and the total amount of memory being used.

Have you tried to load theme(s) via ota yet?

Hi are you trying to load the themes individully or are you trying to reload the entire software? because that makes a hudge difference in if it will go through. Also when you are loading it how long does it take to load to the phone?

Unfortunately,

some themes don't work for the BB. For my 7100, I could never get the O2 theme to work...but all the others did. I'm sure there's a work around...just depends on how much you want it! =)

I had the O2 theme working on my 7100t-when I had it. It was my favorite. I used the O2 icon them exclusively..... I think I just removed the vendor ID's from the .alx to get them. That 7100t seems like an eternity ago already....Love the Pearl!

Not to steal this thread or anything...

I played with a Pearl yesterday...can't say I am impressed. There's no scroll wheel and the thing is too small...it's almost like a blackberry wannabe!! Stciking with my 7130 =) to each his own!

You're right....that has nothing to do with themes on the 7100....
