EVERYBODY WINS: We've been running a bunch of contests this week, but this isn't a contest... it's a FREEBIE!!! No need to enter. Just click the image above to go download! *
Back in August we dropped word in the CrackBerry blogs of DreamTheme's animated homescreens for BlackBerry called LiveScreens. Instead of being held to the standard look and functionality of a traditional theme, a LiveScreen is an application that runs in the foreground of your BlackBerry, giving you total control over the look of your homescreen and improved functionality as well (ability to create shortcuts!!). Since then, DreamTheme has been working on their Version 2.0 LiveScreens, which will launching on their website at DreamTheme.mobi soon!
In honor of CrackBerry.com's turning two, they've hooked up CrackBerry Nation with a FREE CrackBerry LiveScreen... and this is their new 2.0 version! Click the image above to jump over to DreamTheme.mobi where you can download the files. Be sure to read the instructions fully before you proceed. You need to install both the LiveScreen app as well as the theme that corresponds to your device model. The LiveScreen is currently available for the Curve 83xx, Bold, 8800 and Pearl 81xx. Curve 8900, Storm and Pearl Flip editions will be coming soon (don't worry Storm/8900 owners... we have a freebie coming up for you as well!).
After the jump you can take a look at more screencaps of the CrackBerry Live Screen. Visit DreamTheme.mobi to download. Be sure to post any feedback in the comments. If you run into any technical diffculty, be sure to check out the instructions and FAQ on the DreamTheme website. Enjoy your freebie!!!
Version 2.0 CrackBerry LiveScreen
Once you install both the LiveScreen app and corresponding theme
you can activate the theme and launch your LiveScreen
Upon launching you'll get a welcome screen. Hit the BB/menukey to configure!
Hitting the End key puts your LiveScreen in the background,
revealing a stylish traditional theme!

Thanks!!
i would love to get one of these themes
Nothing to pick, it's yours for FREE. Just click the image to go download!
Thanks for the Love!
Can't wait for the storm version for this.
wont be any good for my storm but im sure my wife would love one for her 8330
I know these themes are freakin awesome, but do they take a lot of memory and use a lot of battery?
thanks so much!!
So, is the Storm version available later today?
I have the LiveScreen which is just amazing, but i dont have the actual theme that should be with it.
can anyone help me out here or while i have to pay for the theme
Go to their website from your computer - dreamtheme.mobi
You can download the .zip folder which contains the app and all the themes for all devices. It's free. You'll need to install via desktop manager though.
It's like OTA install is only the app - not the themes.
SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!
hahaha that's too funny!!!
I am not clear on what makes this product different from any other theme. Are they "moving" themes? Like a video or slide show running behind your icons? One of the choices they offer looks like the gears are always turning behind the icons. Is that correct?
Ok, this is pretty cool.
trying it right now for my 8900
I like!!!
Figured out how to get theme.
Thanks!
Winning this would awesome
You don't have to win... it's free.
Thanks DremeTheme
...for the Storm version. Looks pretty darn interesting.
Is there something i'm dong wrong i clicked on the image above. It took me to DreamTheme.mobi there was a line in purple that said Happy Birthday to Crackberry at the end there was a download was that the onlything you need to do then use DM to get the themes...... Thanks for any help this is super GREAT!!!!!!
I tried 4 times from my computer. I finally did it right from my bb 8900. It was easy from the phone.
Thanks DreamTheme!
Happy b-day CB!!
WOW! This is great!!! Thanks CB and Dream Theme!!!
I don't like how you need to compile all of your emails and your SMS in to a single folder, but I can deal. thx DreamTheme
-R0b
pick meeee plz wooohooo
PICK MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE :DDDDD
so i downloaded this for the 8900, via ZIP from think provided....
i install it on my 8900.....and my home screen is blank....any help?
Its not meant for the 8900. It says in the post that the Storm, Bold and 8900 versions are coming later.
I got it to work on my 8900, don't ask me how. I loaded it from my phone and just followed the directions. Go figure, maybe I just think it's installed right :p
And there is a Bold .alx version when you install it. Works fine for me :)
it takes forever for it to load
OK I downloaded the The Livescreen via OTA< but I can't find where to download the theme? New at this need help please
Thanks guys!
Thanks a BUNCH!
pretty cool, but i wish it was an actual theme instead of an application.
I wish they had the live screens for the Storm also...I guess the Storm freebee is good too...
I have the Theme on the Bold, but my DM would not recgonize any other files associated with the download. I am using DM 4.6 so their sould not be any issues. What am I doing wrong here?
why are you guys saying "pick me" for this one? this one is free for everybody!
discuss it here

Happy B-Day Crackberry.

wow Happy Birthday CB and thanks for the B-day Freebie!
i love this place, it's like from another planet.... just give so much info, and help ppl in so many ways with for some a toy for another a tool, but at the end all together in this place, thanks and happeeeee birthday.!!
When I try to install for my Curve 8330, my dekstop manager states that there it is not for my device (both the DK.alx and themeforcurve.alx) help????
For what ever reason the only icons I had access to were the core ones on the home screen. I couldn't get to any of my other applications. So out goes the LiveScreen App but the Theme stays. I appreciate having the theme however... I really like the icons.
Gotta love this free stuff, thank you Crackberry.
Thank you for the lovely birthday gift. I have it up and running.
