    Hook bb up to the pc. Extract files to pc. Open app loader, search for files that you just extracted on the pc and load the alx file. After that it should be in your themes on your berry if not remove the battery.

    do you have to unlock the vendor themes before adding new themes. I saw this in the 101 lessons and it was not clear if you have to do this first or if it is even necessary.

    To add new themes.. No... from my understanding when u unlock vendor themes that just allows you acces to the themes that come stock with other Service providers themes that come stock with the phone.

    Did you extract the file? It has 2 files inside the zip file, and are you sure the theme is made for your device?

    Thanks cutdacheck, great help. I was not extracting the whole file. If anyone else needs help, these are step by step directions.

    Installing a theme on your Blackberry via a computer (Desktop Manager Download)
    Step 1. Download your desired theme. Themes are usually placed within ZIP packages, so unzip the files anywhere on your PC whenever they are downloaded. (Make sure the theme is made for your OS version)

    Step 2. Connect your Blackberry via USB and run Desktop Manager and Hit “Application Loader.”

    Step 3. Press next until you reach the Device Application Selector dialog. Hit the “Add” button, and navigate to your extracted theme file.

    Step 4. Finish the installation process by pressing next/ok. Your BB should restart.

    Step 5. Go to Options > Themes on your bb to activate theme.
