Well, on second thought. I'm now using the Zen theme, but there is no browser for me to use...or at least it's not enabled. Any idea how I can enable my web browser? Is this a common issue?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks a ton, Pizzle...actually I had to resend my service books. Amazing what I can find when I "search".

Thanks again.

Hi All,

I was such a wimp and concerned about upgrading to the Zen Theme - I just wasn't getting it (I know - ridiculous). I finally did it!! Everyone's questions with answers helped A LOT!!

I can't thank Stinsonddog enough for answering my particular questions - back and forth in email - he was extremely patient!!

And thank you to Seattle18 for your very detailed directions - that finally got through my head and your website with all of the fun choices!!

This is such a great forum!!

Worked perfectly! Thanks for the excellent instructions. Now, my ringtone volume level issue is fixed, and I love the Vodaphone theme. Nice work!

Thanks seattle18 for the instructions! After a few tries at uploading the zen theme I finally got it!

georgiadragracer · 08-02-2006, 12:26 PM

first try worked great. thanks!!

I took the plunge into Telstra. Everything went without a hitch. My only interest was improved volume function but since I have new themes I will probably give them a whirl. Being a former Treo 600 user I am hooked on phones that I can amend/add functionality. This is my first BB and I am happy with the switch. I love this forum. It beats the heck out of the instruction manual. Is it a felony to type Treo here? lol Thanks!

How do I get seattle18's desktop backrounds from his website? I also I tried locating the files for the ZEN theme and I have no shared folder anywhere?
Any ideas
Thanks

I've gotten the same errors too on Telestra. I've also gotten Call Failed errors when trying to place a call and Forwarding Errors when checking my voicemail. Gonna have to revert to Bharti because this thing lags more than my PC on 56k dialup.

I installed Telestra and Zen over the weekend. Worked great.

I was switching back and forth between themes and decided to stay with Zen. One time I get a RIM error and it had option to reset, I reset and everything was fine.

Thanks Seattle18 for the info!

So, I am going to probably do this, but I wanted to make sure that before doing it, it is not going to interfere with anything I have added to my 8700c, such as BBtoday, BB Weather, Weatherbug, etc. Seems like it's a really cool theme to have, and I want to do it, but I really do not wish to get into a 1000 phone calls to Cingular. What is the difference between the Telestra and the other anyway? Thanks.

decon · 08-08-2006, 01:49 PM

It won't interfere with any of the apps you have. Just be sure to follow the instructions exactly.

Difference between Telestra and BHARTI is minimal. Go for the Telestra, seems to be faster. Some people find one or the other more unstable just like anything.

Do it!

ld-runner · 08-08-2006, 01:57 PM

the biggest difference you will notice right away with Telstra is how loud your BB has become. Even on low settings, the 8700c is still very loud. The Zen theme is also very nice.

spasell · 08-09-2006, 08:48 AM

Thanks for the information. The only thing I am wondering is why the Zen theme is better then the others. I am able to acccess the Dimension list vs. Icon, and it looks like the Zen is pretty much a list format. Is this true? One thing I do not like about the list is that for whatever reason, the call log does not show up, so I cannot even dial a number from that screen since I have that option disabled to be able to use quick compose and quick note.

Is the Zen theme different in that regard to the list themes that I have?

spasell · 08-09-2006, 10:01 AM

In this instruction:

5. Go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader and delete or rename Vendor.xml

When you say to delete OR rename, which is better? And what would you recommend renaming it as? Does it matter? Does it matter if I just delete it altogether?
