I have run an assortment of 4.5 beta OS, currently 4.5.0.102. With each version of the 4.5 os I have never been able to use themes. I have made sure the themes I have downloaded are built for 4.5 I have downloaded them ota and even used desktop manager. I have down hard and soft reboots still no theme located in the themes section, however are clearly installed and visable in the app section.
Befor you say it, yes I know its beta so I know its not perfect, but I have had this issue consistantly across all versions, and I know its possiable to load themes on beta 4.5 as I have helped co works and friends update their bbs and many of them seem to not have issues with this...
Can anyone shed some light on this issue?
Thanks

Do you have the Dimension Themes installed? See if any of these apply. http://www.blackberryforums.com/medi...emes-list.html

Yes, icon,L, today and zen

i also need help with this. same exact problem, please reply with solution. much apreciated.

Can one of you throw us a link to a theme you're trying to use?

Theme Downloader | RogersMJ.com

i use 4.5.0.102 but have been unable to install this theme since .69

i have always used the device manager, because i don't have my WEP key.

The link you provided is an OTA link which can't be used via the dektop manager. Try this link: Theme Downloader | RogersMJ.com

well i downloaded the zip files ages ago, and it worked on the themes previous to .69 but now i use the same file and it does not work. Ill try to redownload it =] thx

it still does not show up in the themes list. but shows up on the application list as always

Do you have the dimension themes installed on your device,today,zen or icon. what ever theme your trying to install from RogersMJ you must have the bb dimension style on your device.

I was gonna say; see post 2, but that was another user. Good thing to look at! Whatever happened to the OP?

Oh, and try one of these voltone...you might like one better...if they work:

Bottom Dock PimpMyBerry -"IPhonish - Bottom Dock" 83XX - Pimp My Berry!

Today Bottom Dock PimpMyBerry -"IPhonish-Today Bottom dock" - Pimp My Berry!

Icon Theme PimpMyBerry -"Iphonish" - Pimp My Berry!

yes i have all these installed. i also have all of the vendor themes unlocked but i dont think that would make a difference. and thanks for the recommendation scooter.

Just curious, do you have net_rim_plazmic_themereader.cod installed, too? I know I've sometimes fallen victim to overzealous deletion when upgrading to a new OS version.

yes i do. if by installed you mean in the Java folder? then yes.

Fair enough - just thought that might be causing the issue.

any other ideas?? really want this theme

The link you provided is for OS v4.2.2

It would appear via post #8 that he/she tried to re-download the proper files provided in post #7...?

No one else having this problem but me and OP?

I just realised that the bPhone themes aren't the only ones that do not work. Other themes also do not work, so it's not something wrong with the theme.
