very cool theme! just love that you can get these for free. as always, you need a battery pull, but go for it!

Awesome idea!
Would like to see it implemented for 9700!

Love the idea, unfortunately I am not a Storm owner but would love to have this for my Tour. Please expand to more BlackBerrys Elecite.

But I wish it could use it on my curve. :(

We will see if I am lucky enough to win.

dude, it's free :) I guess you got used to contests, so you even don't read topics anymore :))

I downloaded this to my Tour yesterday. While it doesn't have the customization support yet, the theme is crisp and the graphics are great. I suggest that you give this one a try. Besides, its free right now!

I search and search for the perfect theme...according to my likes and standards. This would be a God send for the 9700....oooooooh I hope they make it available soon.

I'd love to see it for 9700!

The customization is somewhat simple at this point, but does allow you to make some useful choices. I went with the blue scheme and 2 columns (which are really rows icons).

The graphics and the icons are crisp, but some of the hot spots are a little difficult for me to activate (the clock for example). Also, I am not wild about the way the ribbon works for phone/messages/calendar. They 'scroll' which means you need a couple touches to get from phone to calendar. Since there are only 3 items for the ribbon, they should be static so you have have direct access to all 3 at any time.

Overall, it is a nice looking theme, and worth a try.

i got this one and it is simple yet sophisticated. i love it

 
 
Posted by JGLADIATORS Friday, Mar 05, 2010 810 days ago

IT LOOKS PRETTY GOOD MY STORM CAN SURELY USE A THEME LOKE THIS ONE....

 
 
Posted by VDK Friday, Mar 05, 2010 810 days ago

That's how all themes should be!

 
 
Posted by Riders On The Storm Friday, Mar 05, 2010 810 days ago

This is an awesome theme! I just installed it and can't put my phone down. Elecite - this is a home run!

 
 
Posted by YourFriendWayneD Friday, Mar 05, 2010 810 days ago

Clarion - Seems Elecite can't find a better name instead of looking through Mobihand and seeing if someone already has that as a theme name they take the name of one of my themes I have had for over months and put their hands on it...

What ever happen to respect in the business...

Posted by john7760 Friday, Mar 05, 2010 810 days ago

Hey my new theme is going to be called PULSE........Oh wait someone else has that theme name already...guess that would be rude to steal a name. I respect other developers so I guess I will change it.

 
 
Posted by elecite.com Friday, Mar 05, 2010 810 days ago

A little correction to the post, Clarion is actually available for multiple devices (Storm 1 & 2, 8900, 9700 & Tour) for multiple OS versions 4.6, 4.7 & 5.0.

The only thing is, you can only customize the Storm version using Genus.

 
 
Posted by ROSES5682 Friday, Mar 05, 2010 810 days ago

at times like this i wish i had a storm. I hope they release this for 8900 soon.

 
 
Posted by keysteele Friday, Mar 05, 2010 810 days ago

Nothing for Curve OS 5.Wheres just OS 5 download.

 
 
Posted by elecite.com Friday, Mar 05, 2010 810 days ago

In the desc. you'll see a link that says "for OS 5.0, click here" :)

 
 
Posted by SGTB Friday, Mar 05, 2010 810 days ago

All good but having issue with getting it to my phone. Any help folks..I like that you can pick how many bars you want on the home screen, 3 was a bit much for me so I changed it. Well done Elecite.

 
 
Posted by alicklee Friday, Mar 05, 2010 810 days ago

I love how we can custom it and it fast no lag or memory leak so far good job @elecite

 
 
Posted by tyler.hopkins Friday, Mar 05, 2010 809 days ago

I really like the theme and I have a suggestion for yall. The status bar is a bit hard to read. The battery level and signal strength is tiny and difficult to understand. Other than that excellent job guys. Since it was free I'm gonna let ya make it this time....haha jk. I appreciate your art work.

 
 
Posted by elecite.com Friday, Mar 05, 2010 809 days ago

The battery and signal meters are actually quite large...larger than default at least :)

Its the small rectangle inside of a larger one that moves left and right.

 
 
Posted by tyler.hopkins Friday, Mar 05, 2010 809 days ago

Yea I understand that and I really like that idea its really cool. It just looks small to me. Like I said just a suggestion IMO. I'm sure other people like it. Still a great theme though. I would have def payed for this one.

 
 
Posted by jbeaul Saturday, Mar 06, 2010 809 days ago

Yes, users are idiots and think larger elements are harder to see than smaller ones.

But wait! The design and display are different so even though it occupies more space, the symbol appears smaller since it's harder to interpret.

Sorry for the rant (not really). It's a knee-jerk reaction to developers mocking user feedback.

 
 
Posted by elecite.com Saturday, Mar 06, 2010 809 days ago

I didn't mean to mock and I apologize if that's how it sounded. I only wanted to make sure we were on the same page and the user was aware of what the actual meters were. We've had a few confused users so I just wanted to clarify that.

 
 
Posted by Static_Cypher Friday, Mar 05, 2010 809 days ago

I like it but... I would like it more if there was a 'no column' option. The columns take up too much space in my opinion. I'd rather have that extra space for my hidden today messages. I order to have a hidden today - it seems as though you need a minimum of 2 columns. Perhaps there will be further customizations in the future or more options with a paid version.

 
 
Posted by nep1030 Friday, Mar 05, 2010 809 days ago

I installed but the main screen only sows the icons

 
 
Posted by cwhitney24 Friday, Mar 05, 2010 809 days ago

Could someone send me the ota link for this theme for my 9700. I can't seem to get their site to cooperate on my phone. My pin is 215F202B. Thanks.

 
 
Posted by anastasiophan Friday, Mar 05, 2010 809 days ago

I have tried to order it 3 times and resent the email a bunch, but it won't send it. I've checked spam and everything! WTH!

 
 
Posted by eric.atx Friday, Mar 05, 2010 809 days ago

Only storm? That sucks!!!

 
 
Posted by Reborn58 Friday, Mar 05, 2010 809 days ago

I am having trouble adjusting the icons on the front screen - when I put them in order it doesn't seem to order them on the today screen in any reasonable way. Any way to fix this or am I missing something?

Also is there a way to get SMS messages to show up on the today screen instead of my 'messages' since I basically never use the messages folder?

Other than that this is one of the coolest themes I have seen out there. I love it.

I am running a curve and This version is only for the Storm ...Screwed again by Elecite!!

 
 
Posted by elecite.com Saturday, Mar 06, 2010 809 days ago

This is NOT a Storm only. Curve is supported! :)

 
 
Posted by lpstreetsoldierm Saturday, Mar 06, 2010 809 days ago

I keep selecting Blue as the main color, but purple is always what shows up in the download. How do I fix this?
Has anyone else encountered this issue?

 
 
Posted by PROB1 Saturday, Mar 06, 2010 809 days ago

I think this would be great, wish it was designed to work with the Tour. I did try it because others had success, but it was a no go. I wish I knew how to build themes, this is a great concept, you could finally find a theme that is absolutely perfect for you.

 
 
Posted by cosmica Saturday, Mar 06, 2010 809 days ago

Dl'ed to my Storm last night and I love it! And it's free! Awesome...just awesome!

 
 
Posted by irvysan Saturday, Mar 06, 2010 809 days ago

Would like to see this expanded to include other models.........

 
 
Posted by jose_416 Saturday, Mar 06, 2010 809 days ago

great theme i DL it and just tried it.. wow its fast and smoooooooth.. But there is mad memory leakage i m noticing.. and 1.5mb the size thats alot.. kinda hoping for 1mb or less but i guess for th quality and stuff thats why its that big huh..

 
 
Posted by 12MaNy Saturday, Mar 06, 2010 809 days ago

I don't see any edit options for this theme. How do we customize it?

 
 
Posted by 12MaNy Saturday, Mar 06, 2010 809 days ago

I see that only a couple devices have the edit option.

 
 
Posted by BBTelus8330 Saturday, Mar 06, 2010 809 days ago

quick and easy to get and download. and very clean with no strong colors. i'll keep this for awhile.

 
 
Posted by FreeLoader Sunday, Mar 07, 2010 808 days ago

Quick question guys, I'm not as tech savvy as most of you on here so please help :)

i downloaded the theme and it has installed fine, but do I need to go back to the Elecite page to customise it? Can't I do it via my blackberry or must I do it on the website and will the changes be sent to my phone? I'm a bit confused :/

Any help will be appreciated
Thanks :)

 
 
Posted by rlmesq Tuesday, Mar 09, 2010 806 days ago

You really can't customize this theme (beyond moving icons, and changing fonts and background, just as you would with any other theme).

Despite the hype, there's nothing groundbreaking about this theme... which is really a single theme with 36 possible variations. (2 base colors x 3 column layouts x 2 icon sets x 3 font sizes)

The "theme builder" is just a flowchart to choose which version you want. If you want to make a change, you have to go through the flowchart again, choose a new version and install it.

It may be a great theme for some (wasn't really my thing, but you know what they say about opinions....), but the "theme machine" isn't the amazing breakthrough I expected.

 
 
Posted by idle0095 Sunday, Mar 07, 2010 808 days ago

i like the idea but i wish there wasnt a weather icon and we could use berry weather homescreen wallpaper instead. so please elecite make this possible.

 
 
Posted by aming63 Sunday, Mar 07, 2010 808 days ago

I would love this for my bold 9000!!!!

 
 
Posted by iPhoneLoyalist Sunday, Mar 07, 2010 808 days ago

Got home and my wife Showed me her new BB storm theme and I acultually was pretty impressed, and not just with the theme but the fact he did it herself. Really cool thing you guys have going here

 
 
Posted by hpfanatic Monday, Mar 08, 2010 807 days ago

Sucks you can only do it through a download link.

I'm out of the country right now so I don't have data service :(

I got myself really amped up because it's exactly what I need.

Is there no way of getting around this? No way to do a computer download?

 
 
Posted by cduru Monday, Mar 08, 2010 807 days ago

It's a beautiful theme but my snaptu app stopped working once I loaded the theme. Interestingly, I uninstalled the theme and my snaptu started working again. I am not sure of any other apps that might have stopped working while running this theme though.

Again, it's a beautiful theme. Very asthetically pleasing.

 
 
Posted by jfarling Monday, Mar 08, 2010 807 days ago

...but its very slow to respond taking it out of holstered mode for the storm2.

 
 
Posted by onlineaddy Monday, Mar 08, 2010 807 days ago

Without labels for the icons on the home screen, it's impossible to distinguish items with the same icon (e.g. folder icon). That makes it nearly impossible to use from the home screen. Also, the weather icon without label means I don't know the temperature, just that it's sunny, cloudy, rainy, or whatever.

 
 
Posted by howl078 Monday, Mar 08, 2010 807 days ago

Great theme, I love it, it looks amazing on my 9700. Would you be releasing an update so the icons on the homescreen could have labels, the weather icons with labels, access the clock and profile from the homescreen?
Thnx.

 
 
Posted by idle0095 Tuesday, Mar 09, 2010 806 days ago

i cant use city id with this theme. electie needs to start listening to there customers and stop making these themes with there own theme builder. i know peter and roland from elecite and eveek and man there getting this theme bussiness a mess.

 
 
Posted by fryck Tuesday, Apr 13, 2010 771 days ago

I just tried to re-dl this theme and can't. Did they take it down? It was a great theme.
