Default Today Theme (whats the secret) - 04-29-2008, 08:32 PM

I have the 8703e from verizon, which is currently running v4.2.1.106 (platform 2.3.0.20). Im not sure if this is the most recent upgrade, but i doubt this is the cause of my problem.

I finally found a today theme that has been made for the 8700 series: in downloading both ways (ota and desktop) several times, it still never works...
it shows up in the list under themes yet it does not have an option to activate like the other themes do...
Any suggestions?

Welcome to BBF.

Did you reboot after installing? If so, was the theme made for the 4.2 OS?

If you are running 4.2.1 you DO NOT need to install the theme reader. It is already included.
