Well I'm not sure, and you are downloading it through your BB browser and not trying to install it through DM? Just simple questions to ask

anthony50807 · 08-21-2008, 11:49 PM

i have to do it from my blackberry because my BB doesn't connect to the computer and it isnt read by Desktop Manager

I just downloaded the 4.2 Zen version on my 8320 and it installed and shows up on my list. Don't see why it isn't showing for you

Awsome job! These look great on my 8120 and 8310! Thank you very much for sharing!

i think is because the file is a .jad format and my blackberry only takes .cod.....

how can i change it from .jad to .cod???

BCollins521 · 08-22-2008, 01:55 AM

You have to download it through your Blackberry browser on your phone, that's why it is OTA (Over the air)

anthony50807 · 08-22-2008, 02:02 AM

i know i do and when i download it from my phone it downloads as a .jad file and my phone only accepts .cod files

BCollins521 · 08-22-2008, 02:03 AM

No you have to download a .jad file through your BB browser for it to install automatically. When you install something through your DM then you need the .cod and the .alx

To OTA install you download the JAD file. The JAD has information in it that tells the BlackBerry which COD file to grab off the server.

I love this theme I am using the Today 4.5 version on my 8130. Is there a way I can load it into plazmic so I can change my lock screen whenever I want. I like the vista background for the menu but would like to keep my wifes picture on my lock screen. I would just ask you to change it but I like to switch between several photos I have of her. I saw that you had someone post your theme on another sight so I may be asking a lot.

ScottMB4 · 08-22-2008, 05:44 AM

It is now possible for you to load the theme into the Theme Builder. If you want the lock screen changed, that is something that BCollins521 would have to do.

dwood721 · 08-22-2008, 06:14 AM

Now I am lost. I can open the sample themes that came with the program and make changes to them so why couldn't I do it if he was willing to share the file with me? I really just started messing with plazmic today so sorry if thats a dumb question

ScottMB4 · 08-22-2008, 06:20 AM

I didn't realize you were wondering if you could have the file. He could give you the file, but chances of him doing that are VERY slim. Most Theme Builders would NEVER give out that file. However, you could ask him. I am not BCollins521 and don't know what he would do.

dwood721 · 08-22-2008, 06:22 AM

got it, I apreciate your help too man

TroyDBrown · 08-22-2008, 06:25 AM

BCollins521 is a great guy, but I don't think its appropriate to ask for his source files. I know he puts a great deal of work into them. Also if you are willing to use theme builder to modify you may want to explorer developing your own.

ScottMB4 · 08-22-2008, 06:29 AM

Let's put it this way, asking for the theme file is like asking a football team for the plays they use in their games. I guess that is the best comparison I can come up with at the moment.
