" Before Downloading and Installing a BlackBerry Theme
** Important!
Before downloading and installing any blackberry theme onto your BlackBerry smartphone, always verify the version of the Operating System on your BlackBerry and ensure the theme you are downloading is compatible with your BlackBerry device (Curve, 8800, Pearl, etc.) and Operating System version. Installing an incompatible BlackBerry theme onto your BlackBerry device can result in a couple of bad things happening: a) on newer devices the theme won't be recognized (you installed the theme but it doesn't show up on your Themes list) and poorer performance may result. Uninstalling the theme (via Options > Advanced Options > Applications) and rebooting your phone (battery pull) should solve the problem. Installing a theme designed for a newer operating system onto a BlackBerry with an older operating system can lead to a "nuked" BlackBerry - the BlackBerry reboots continuously (white screen with hourglass) and is stuck there. If that happens, you will need to reload the BlackBerry Operating system following these directions: How to Reload the OS on a Nuked BlackBerry.
Before downloading a BlackBerry theme and installing it onto your BlackBerry, simply verify the OS and install only a compatabile theme and you won't run into any problems.
