As far as I know they will work on any 8700..

Alright I'm feeling alittle dumb. I've tried the OTA versions with no luck. I see them in my applications, but not in my themes. I am losing my mind. Help me please!

~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~Try doing a battery pull gruv15. This is called a hard reboot. What you do is take your battery out for a few seconds then put it back in. You will get the spinning hourglass. Fearnot. This is normal. Just let your Blackberry do its thing. Once it is done rebooting go check your themes list and see if they are there.

Hope this helps you out.

No luck. Thanks for the advice though. I think it might have to do with the fact that I'm using an 8700c. Any other thoughts? I'm all ears. Thanks.

~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~ I would recommend trying it again. When done reboot, and then check it...

Also, did you modify your own alx or use one you downloaded? I think there have been some problems with the alx downloaded for some people. You might be better off to modify your own if you are still having problems.

~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~I have downloaded both Today themes. I prefer the Vodafone but in the application list all of my email, BES and BIS alike, are labeled 'email' and not with the names assigned to them. Has anyone else seen this? I am running version 4.1.0.309. Does anyone think that moving up to .371 would fix this?

thanks! This is great.. I deleted my vodafone theme by mistake, and the links to OTA installation works like a charm!

wschnaer · #25 09-16-2006 -

~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~Duh! Ignore my last sentence. It took me a while to realize that version 309 IS version 371. The problem with the email labels still is an open question though

Hi All,

I just followed the instructions in this thread (OK I skipped a step and downloaded both sets of themes at the same time and copied them into the /JAVA folder). When I started desktop manager, it was not prompting me to update the core applications, so I have removed the battery and now the phone won't finish booting - I just get the operators logo in the background and the spinning hourglass. It looks I have stuffed it up somehow - Any ideas how it get it up and running again?

Thanks
John

John,

Was your battery removal done with it connected to DM or disconnected from your PC?

I got this to work without using the Telstra or the StarHub OS, i got the OS Provided by my operator Telenor, former Vodafone here in sweden and i just downloaded via the link below directly on my phone and it worked, using OS version 4.1.0.258(plattform 2.0.0.111) on a 8700v.

Since i'm not allowed to post url:s i have to paste it as above, just remove the () and the link should work.

Edit: The link was posted in a earlier post just reposting it if someone missed it.

rto, Welcome to PinStack.

Sorry no one has responded yet and I missed this some how. I don't know how to help as I haven't tried this, but did you see the Vodofone Today theme listed in the alx file. You may need a later version of the OS to find it.

Let us know if there is anything else we can do to help with your BB.
