Slice into your screen with Pootermobile's latest theme Sheath! You can't help but smile when you first see the homescreen of Sheath. All customizable text icons on a vertical dock elegantly complimented by an animated focus image resembling, well a sword. When scrolling through your icons you'll get a popping sensation from the text displayed. Going from a slightly small font to a larger font giving you a smooth animation worth looking at all day. If you thought your wallpaper looked good with the dock displaying it'll look even better when you hide it revealing a spot for your weather app or favorite app. And like always Poots is there to give you some helpful hints on how to use the theme. If you thought the homescreen was enough the applications screen holds some beautiful custom icons. For a useful and unique experience on your BlackBerry Sheath is what you are looking for.

Just purchased and think it's going to quickly become one of my favourites!
Quick question... to clear "text" icons, I think the key to use was escape. Whatever it was, it worked at first, now I don't remember. If it was escape, it's not working now.
The only thing I did was to change the QuickLaunch option (in the app) so it's not triggered by "space" key, so there won't be a conflict.
This theme is pretty cool. Purchased today. Only issue I have is that it freezes at times when you unhide the dock. You have to wait sometimes like 10 seconds before it un-freezes. And yes, I did a battery pull after install. But a nice theme

I just tested the theme out myself and the dock doesn't freeze for me. I have a 9700 with OS6...and I didn't do a battery pull either. When you hide the dock do you focus on the weather slot? Because if you focus on the weather slot then un-hide the dock you have to scroll to the left to go back to the buttons on the dock.

Not trying to offend you. I just see lag with the theme. Doesn't matter where I leave off on the dock. Sometimes it works fine and other times it freezes. Not sure if I can keep using it.

I found that with some OS6 builds, themes just don't do well regardless of the number of reboots/battery pulls. So far, on 448, no problems at all. This theme did lag at first but after a reboot or two and a battery pull, it's behaving great. I think with 461, themes were even more fluid but I'm not sure about the radio. I was getting a lot of dropped calls on 461. Each person's experience with different OS builds is different though.

What OS are you running? I have found that if you have the browser loading a page in the background and you go to the homescreen there is lag for any theme. That might be why you see lag sometimes and other times not. I've ran this theme on my 9700 running OS6 and it has never frozen.

I've used Sheath for months and never experienced any lag. If it 'appeared' to lag, the culprit was always another app, especially one calling on the gps.
