Theme Issue

joenmell · Thread Author #1 01-12-2009, 09:57 AM

I have an 8830WE with .101 loaded. I was fortunate enough to be in time to obtain one of the free H20 Themes from Visto. I went to their link, and saved it to my hard drive. it appears to save a "*.jad" file. when I go to Desktop Manager and attempt to put it on my phone, it is only looking for *.ALX, or *.ALI file only. What am I doing wrong? or how do I convert?

You can copy the .jad to your media card. Then open your media icon and from the menu "Explore" to the file and open it. It should run from there.

.jad files are normally for OTA (over the air ) installation. Try Trucky's suggestion , it should work.

I've only had about a 50/50 success ratio when trying to install a .jad from the media card... it's worth a try tho, but like he said, you would normally install a .jad through your bb browser directly onto your bb.

I got them onto the Media Card. Now do I get them to load? I am using Blackberry Desktop Manager 4.7.

Find the .jad file or the OTA link, copy and paste the link and send it in an e-mail to your BlackBerry. Then just open the e-mail, click on the link and install it...

I got "Download Failed" on all three files that I copied. Guess I loose out.

You don't use Desktop Manager to install a .jad. On your bb open your Media icon and then use the menu to "Explore" to where you saved the .jad file on your media card. Then highlight the file and click "Open".
