[ Description ]
Introducing HTC Desire HD, a beautiful representation of the famed SenseUI experience, right on your BlackBerry.
What makes Desire HD so special is the way you can dynamically change the look of your homescreen within the theme itself. Choose between the original Sense, Slate, Metal, and Wood themes; all four are all included in ONE theme, making Desire HD a great value!
- Fully-skinned UI and icons
- Fluid animations
- Ridiculously tiny file size (at just over 1mb)
- Landscape homescreen enabled (Torch 9800 and Storm)
- Large HTC-like clock widget (left side launches Clock, right side launches Profiles)
- 4 pre-installed themes
- Top notification bar drops down to reveal Today Screen
- Use the preset theme wallpaper or use your own
- Many other built-in options to customize the theme to your liking
- Keyboard shortcuts: Spacebar launches QuickLaunch (sold separately) and Dollar Sign launches SMS

- You can change the wallpaper, you can turn off the panoramic feature via the Options on the left-most screen. As for landscape, it's only enabled because of a bug in Theme Builder that messes up the screen if you don't enable landscape. Once RIM fixes it, there will be no landscape mode at all =)
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com11-10-10 09:43 PMLike 0 - Crackberry store does not have "sense" on the list and no matter which style I choose it will not add to my cart.
Edit: (DL'ed from MobiHand) I see "sense" comes with each theme. Cool!
So far this theme appears great, very snappy!

- Theme tested questions/thoughts;
- When I click the messages icon I see nothing. Unless it's tied to unread only? If that's the case (which I have figured out it is), I will probably go straight to a message as apposed to swiping my screen, then having to tap an icon... but that could just be me.
- It might be good to make the clock hotspot a little smaller. It appears very easy to accidentally launch the clock.
- The far left arrow button should be user definable. If I want to launch my apps I can simply click my BB button. Having that icon do the same is semi redundant and almost a waste of valuable real estate.
- Tapping just below the middle button brings up the skin changer screen. So, if I go to use my middle icon and hit it just off the mark I have to select a skin to get the screen to go away.
- You should really have something as the tilt screen. Even if it's just the clock with the top 4 icons. To tilt the phone and see blank (non-customizable) screen is not cool.Last edited by KahneFan; 11-10-10 at 10:45 PM.

Some quick observations:
- Tapping just right below the left arrow can also bring up the skins screen.
- There is no AM\PM indicator for 12hour clock setting (non-issue really) just thought I throw it out there.
One suggestion, depending on what your design plan is, is to combine the skins and options together into one screen. And have that 'options' tab on the left screen be used for something else.
Great theme once again Vince, got the metal skin, very nicely done.11-10-10 11:04 PMLike 0 -

- Few questions:
-how do I change the wallpaper? When I go to a picture and "set as wallpaper"...my wallpaper doesn't change.
-can I fill the right side home screen with apps? Default is only 8 at the bottom?
In general, how do I customize all 3 home screens more?

Also, 8 icons is the max for that right-most screen. If I add any more, you wouldn't be able to swipe comfortably between screens =(11-11-10 01:07 AMLike 0 - Vince you rock and this theme is one of the best I have used. Both me and my wife love it keep up the great work and we look forward to updates !
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com11-11-10 01:20 AMLike 0 - Hey guys thanks for the observations so far. I will try to get the ones I like in the next updates. For now I just need a break. I was literally on the computer chair for the last 10 hours with no food and one washroom break, trying frantically to get this theme out on time as promised lol... will be back to it again soon enough =)11-11-10 01:39 AMLike 0
- Take your time perfecting it bro ! Great work !
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com11-11-10 02:07 AMLike 0 - bought the metal version
review left on CB
thanks
EDIT: looks like I gave the theme 5 stars too early.. My device has become extremely slow
I get a new email notification, but never see the messages in the Messages app or the individual icons for the mail accounts, unless I reboot and then I have to reboot yet again to see new messages
No issues like this with any other themeLast edited by batrad; 11-11-10 at 03:32 PM.
