Hi All,

I'm a newbie to both this site and the Blackberry. I am soooo confused. I am using a Mac and cannot load the CD/software that came with my Verizon 7130e onto my computer, as it is windows-based.

I have successfully downloaded "screensavers" to my BB via OTA (WAP). However, I cannot seem to find any sites that have themes that can be download to the BB via OTA.

Any suggestions?

Thanks alot!!!

Laura

Please look in the Themes area for information on this.

Thanks guys! However, I have looked at the Themes area for hours, and still cannot figure it out!!! I cannot find an OTA link that works! The link is either dead, or it is a download.

I also clicked on the link by your signature, Fizz, and it brings me to downloads. Please forgive my ignorance, as I am soooo new to all of this.

Thanks for you patience.

Hi Fizz!

Sorry to bother you again, but I have downloaded (OTA) a few themes, downloaded the plasmic theme reader (got confirmation after both downloads that they successfully downloaded), but cannot find the themes!!!

In my "advanced options" I can see that the plasmic theme reader is there, but have looked high and low for any of the themes, and cannot find them. I have been going crazy for a day trying to get this right!!!


Any suggestions?? Thanks alot!

Don't go into Advanced Options.

Use Options > Theme

You should find them there.

Yes, like the previous post stated, go to "options", then "themes". you'll find a list of the themes there, all you need to do is click on one and select "activate".

Sorry I did not respond right away! I was away and just got back.

I have gone into options, and the only themes there are the 3 that came with the Blackberry. This is really baffling to me, because the downloads were successful (themes and theme reader). However, after the downloads, I did not get a screen that asked if I wanted to reboot. Could that be the problem?

I did turn off my Blackberry and then turned it back on. Still nothing.

Sorry for being a pain. And believe me, i have read this site for hours trying to figure this out.

Does this not work on Verizon Blackberry 7130e?

this theme is for any BB that is a 71xx (7130e included). I have seen this problem before and then installed it directly from a PC using Desktop Manager. Are you able try it that way instead of OTA?

Turning it off and on is not the same as a reboot. Try pulling the battery for a minute then putting it back in. That will give you a reboot. THat may solve the problem.

Removing the battery from the back of the phone did the trick!!! Thanks so much for everyone's help!!
