Turn your 8900 into a Cool Chic BlackBerry with the 8900 Cipher SideBar Xtreme. Its the First Vertical SideBar 8900 Theme with 15 customizable icons on a Vertical scrolling dock and a spacey new-age look that compliments the 8900 perfectly. It also has another Customizable Icon on the upper Right hand corner!!
This aint just a pretty theme, this is a pretty theme with functions that actually works, exactly what the demanding users need !!!
1. The label of the icon doesn't show up in the bar under the time on the home screen, I think it was supposed to based on what I saw on your website.
2. It is very slow on my phone, not sure if its just me for some reason but it takes some time to get back to the home screen and the scrolling of the icons is choppy. Also if you try and move over to the right side, it takes about 5 seconds before its responsive again.
All in all though, its a very nice looking theme and I love the idea of it, but unfortunately I have gone back to my Zen theme for now.
Been pulling a all niter and just got a few hrs of sleep. Anyhow, I just updated the theme to Version 1.01 which solves the laggyness of Version 1.0. So those that already purchased the theme thru me directly, please email me at [email protected] and I will get you a link.
John came through quickly with a download link and the theme installed OTA correctly first time.
For me this theme has a font size that is a little too small for my eyes and that also makes the Home screen a little cluttered looking imo.
On the plus side there is a lot of information presented and the really unique feature of the vertically scrolling icons. The App name is not displayed when hovering on these icons however so if you need the nam ase well as th icon, you will need to go to the Desktop to get that.
I also have this theme on my brand new 8900 and have not had any problems with it. As previously mentioned, the fonts are smaller but so far they have been working for me.

i have the same issues as you do. The fonts are too small and the app name not being displayed. Also, there have been two instances where I've had two bluetooth icons displayed for some reason. Can this be updated?
He is coming out with another update today from what he told me. Also as far as the blutooth icons that is just a glitch in the 4.7 beta thats in all the themes right now for the 8900.

cool, i'll be on the look out for it. I haven't done a battery pull yet. I went back to an old theme. I'll check it out later. I hate having to rearrange my icons each time I switch over.

I think that you will need to release a new version of this theme once the final Plazmic 4.7 is released. What we have today is an early beta release tat is known to cause phone lockups on some themes.
I bought this theme and have not had ANY problems with it at all on my 9800.
just got this theme, its pretty good, doesn't lag or anything.
my only issue is there doesn't seem to be a phone icon. and on the today page I don't have a notification icon for missed calls or voicemails, is there anything i can do to fix that?
