How to fix if a theme locks your phone up
- I just installed a theme from pinstack.com (A Touch of Blue *Today Plus*). Upon loading the theme, I got the VSOD (Verizon Screen of Death) After trying multiple battery pulls, the phone still would not come back on. To get the phone working again, I used part of CX's method for restoring apps. Taken from this thread:

RESTORE PROCESS
1) Plug in device>Open Desktop Manager
2) Select Apploader>Add/Remove Applications
3) De-select the bad theme
4) Click next
5) Let the phone reboot
Note: I am no way saying that the above theme is corrupt, it just had a lock-up effect on my phone. Hope this helps if someone has the same problem.
I just want to thank CX for his informative posts on this forum. He is a life-saver at times.02-13-09 12:59 AMLike 0 - 02-13-09 06:00 PMLike 0
