Personalizing Your BlackBerry with Themes

Community Manager on 06-30-2009 02:06 PM

Continuing on the personalization theme, not only can you change the Wall Paper or Home Image, and move around your Icons - you can change the format or setup of your desktop by changing your "Theme". 

 

A theme can be a great way to add a bit of fun to your BlackBerry! Depending on the theme you choose it may change the background image, the placement of the icons on the desktop, or the look of the icons. Your BlackBerry comes installed with a couple themes, but you can also find plenty of websites where you can find plenty of free themes and you can also buy themes around your favorite sports team, video game, or if nature or dogs is more your style those can also be found. 

 

Changing Themes:
1. Choose the Options icon

2. Click "Theme"

3. Select a theme

4. To return to the Main Screen press the Escape Key (the rounded arrow)

 

 

Do you have a favorite theme?

Occasionally when i take my Storm out of the case, a picture flashes up of a lightening bolt, its part of the Precision Zen theme and i really like it. But how can i get to see it more often? Is this picture used when it's busy loading the screen or something? Because it never stays on display for long :smileysad:

The instructions to delete themes said to highlight the theme, click the menu and choose delete.  However, "Delete" is not one of the options available.  Am I missing something? Or am I not able to delete a theme after I've downloaded it?

One of my favorite themes of all time is the Iphone Extreme theme for the blackberry storm. Also I love my BioHazard theme for the New blackberry tour as well. And my favorite curve 8330 theme would be the MacOSX replica theme.

How can I lock a folder? Such as a folder of pictures I don't want anyone to see except me?

@nancybout : Youtube uses data that is included in your data plan. But Youtube uses a service book, you have to make sure that your carrier provides it. Just give them a call.
