    the themes work for me, but they need a lil work

    on the test2, they dont have any icons on the main home screen, you have to press the bb button to see the full menu and the icons. I like the look of it, i like the transparent feel.
    thanks, I left the buttons off on purpose. Just playing around with the program.

    I just made my practice theme but it has a lot of bugs. So I am going to make another one now that I understand it a bit more. But I'm not sure if its what I want people to expect from me so I haven't posted it.

    since this is my first bb, just what exactly is the advantage of a theme. is it just different wallpaper or a completely different look and feel to it? and what is the Today theme everyone is looking for?

    After you get that, hit the "browse button" on the lower right of DM.
    poin to the folder you extracted the themes and click on the .alx file.
    then follow prompts to "finish"

    Here is a little about themes:

    here is the 4.6 CDK User guide, pretty much the same for 4.7
    http://www.plazmic.com/en/pdfs/Plazm...r_Guide_46.pdf

    Working with Plazmic Theme Builder projects
    When you create a new theme project, you must first select a theme type. The theme type is a template for the layout of the Home screen.
    The Plazmic Theme Builder includes the following theme types:
    • Zen theme: This Home screen displays five application icons plus an icon that links to the application grid screen, from which users can access all the applications on the BlackBerry device.

    • Today theme: This Home screen displays three application icons plus an icon that links to the application grid screen, from which users can access all the applications on the BlackBerry device. By default, the message application, calendar application, and call log application icons display on this Home screen. The most recent entries are below each application icon.

    • Custom theme: This Home screen displays a combination of Zen theme items (application icon) and Today theme items (application icon and the most recent entries). You can position these items anywhere on the screen. This screen includes a link to the application grid screen, from which users can access all the applications on the BlackBerry device.

    • Icon theme: This Home screen displays application icons arranged in a grid layout. You can organize the application icons into a hierarchy of folders. This screen is also the secondary application grid screen for the Zen, Today, and Custom theme types.

    Test loaded no problem but white letters on the light blue background don't cut it for me. Can you change the color of the letters in the program?

    Yeah I noticed that as well, I'm sure there is a way to change colors at least I hope so.

    No Ididn't change the icons in the test theme. The connecting is waiting for the device to reboot, if you notice the phone does a self power boot after you load an app.

    yea i know that but it takes way longer than normal. if i disconnect it, it goes on way quicker and still loads the apps.

    Oh, yeah I'm not sure why it just sits there waiting, I have disconnected it before also at times.

    Well if its connected or not doesn't help it load any faster to me so I just leave it on and do something else. There are a lot of different things that can be done but it takes time and patience. I take so long doing some really simple stuff but just to make it come together is where I get stuck but hey I'm glad that I can!

    Anyone having troubles with the app?
