Due to popular demand of the CrackBerry Theme, michaelwpg has added support for most other BlackBerry devices. As stated in the Theme Roundup, the CrackBerry theme gives you orange pretty much everywhere throughout this theme. It also features a CB disc when scrolling through apps, CB background on the primary and secondary homescreens, and little CB badges on your icons for visual notifications. If you want to show your CrackBerry love, download OTA from the links below. If you just like the background, you can download the wallpaper here. Keep Crackin'!

pegb856 Apr 7, 2010 at 11:45 am
The 85xx series OS 5 theme should work on your 8330 w/OS 5.

Michael Hepples Apr 7, 2010 at 11:10 am
This really was "by popular demand". I had more than enough emails, etc asking for other devices that I couldn't disappoint. glad you like. :)
jmundi Apr 7, 2010 at 10:36 am
Love my original Crackberry themes. BUT... At first look,this one doesn't look proportioned right on the Storm 2. I like the icon changes for email, just wish it looked cleaner. Will be waiting for version 1.1. :)
sparkerc Apr 7, 2010 at 2:31 pm
I agree... on the Storm2 the theme looks very stretched and pixelated. I like the theme, but would look for an updated proportioned to the Storm2.
CR4V3 Apr 8, 2010 at 9:52 pm
Agreed. It was too pixelated for me to use. Unfortunate seems like a really nice theme I'd love to use.

How do you get the weather to be pinned on the background?
njaremka Apr 7, 2010 at 10:42 am
any 8330 devices running 5.0 must grab the 85XX 5.0 version.
olivr2 Apr 7, 2010 at 10:44 am
what happened to 83xx? You supported it in the last version
bilmaga Apr 7, 2010 at 11:05 am
I downloaded it for my bold 9000 running 4.6 and it didn't show up in my theme folder. Any suggestions?
Michael Hepples Apr 7, 2010 at 11:11 am
I exported it for 5.0 only. Send me an email at hepples@crackberry.com and I'll export a version for 4.6 for you.
johny_bold Apr 7, 2010 at 11:09 am
Very nice theme!
mikadad Apr 7, 2010 at 11:12 am
anyone figure out how to get the weather app to be on the background like in the screenshot??
Michael Hepples Apr 7, 2010 at 11:34 am
In order to have that, you need the Berryweather (Beweather) app.
Shultsy Apr 7, 2010 at 11:40 am
but still cant figure out how to i have messed with all of the settings?
MTH3333 Apr 7, 2010 at 11:40 am
If you have the BerryWeather App how do you get it to be located in a different location than with the icons on the bottom?
Michael Hepples Apr 7, 2010 at 11:50 am
under homescreen, you can set the wallpaper you want to use, and it will be pinned to that wallpaper on the homescreen.
ozziethesaint Apr 7, 2010 at 4:09 pm
I have never had a problem before, this one though, no matter what I do, I can't get Beweather to show up, will the free version show up and if so how? More detailed help please??
SpoiledRottenAppleGuy Apr 7, 2010 at 11:26 am
This is so dope. Thanks CCB
BonezH2X Apr 7, 2010 at 11:40 am
I remember there was another one for the Storm 9530/9500 that the icons circle the Crackberry logo. I loved that one. But it never was giving support for 5.0 and Storm 9550/9520. C'mon make it happen! Please!
Found it update this one please!!!! I really need this one

Michael Hepples Apr 7, 2010 at 11:51 am
Worked just fine for me. Give it a go again.

dadymon Apr 7, 2010 at 12:08 pm
Is there a OTA link for the bold 9000 running 5.0.0.509 with weather?
Michael Hepples Apr 7, 2010 at 12:16 pm
is above, for devices running 5.0.
Weather in the screen shot is a 3rd party app.
zenatic Apr 7, 2010 at 12:20 pm
downloading...
unclebanglin Apr 7, 2010 at 12:25 pm
Daaaamn this stuff is too bright! I'm going blind here. I do like the font and menus, but the bg and icons are too hard to see. Nothing beats Stormy_X!
iLovemy_bb Apr 7, 2010 at 12:27 pm
The links are busted
iLovemy_bb Apr 7, 2010 at 12:28 pm
They work now.
bessemercityburgess Apr 7, 2010 at 12:29 pm
All are wrong download the 83xx one after you hot ok when installed there will be a pop up saying theme found. Now activate I've had 5.0.0.230 on my 8330 since released hope this helps I just downloaded btw
markied85 Apr 7, 2010 at 12:36 pm
what is the icon with the 4 loops, 3 green and one big yellow one (4th icon from left next to ubertwitter)
Michael Hepples Apr 7, 2010 at 12:41 pm
Twitter app by the name of SocialScope.
Michelle Haag Apr 7, 2010 at 12:53 pm
It's SocialScope... Twitter app still in private beta.
*edit* damn you beat me. :P
Michelle Haag Apr 7, 2010 at 12:52 pm
Mike, you did a really nice job with this. :D
Michael Hepples Apr 7, 2010 at 1:42 pm
That's a real compliment, given the source.
PS- Ha! too slow. :p
seashell93 Apr 7, 2010 at 3:17 pm
Thanks for showing us 8330 friends some love...cool theme; however I noticed there is no Messages icon, only an email one even when I Show All....and would it be too much trouble to get the weather slot for us too?!!
Thank you!
Michael Hepples Apr 7, 2010 at 3:23 pm
The "Messages" Icon has been replaced with the CB logo.
As for the weather slot, not sure if I'll get around to doing that, as I do have quite a few requests ATM. If I do, I'll be sure to let everyone know.
seashell93 Apr 7, 2010 at 4:20 pm
Thank you for such a quick response...often developers don't write back if I have a question, so I appreciate it.
Great theme and if you happen to have time for the weather slot super...I'll be using it in the mean time,
ItsGeekster Apr 7, 2010 at 3:17 pm
I am soooo rockin' this theme. :) You did a great job. :)
bps12 Apr 7, 2010 at 4:23 pm
Is there a 4.6 version for the 8900?
Michael Hepples Apr 7, 2010 at 8:12 pm
at hepples@crackberry.com, and I'll get you a link.
josh_1989 Apr 7, 2010 at 4:33 pm
How do I get rid of one of my email icons? For some reason after I downloaded and installed this theme it set two email icons (of the same) instead of just one. I'm super confused.
Michael Hepples Apr 7, 2010 at 8:17 pm
Try doing a battery pull, to let the theme completely override the current settings. Straight install can leave some things out, or duplicate items.
CarFan Apr 7, 2010 at 4:39 pm
It loads fine on my 8330 with Nathanix 8330 5.0.0.438 Hybrid V5.0. Just use the 85xx for version 5.0 as stated earlier in the thread. Only con is the orange background gradation on the right of the home screen blows out to white making it very hard to see 3G and signal strength indicators. This is not a complaint, just an observation.
I'm grateful the developer took the time to make this for free. Thank you.
Michael Hepples Apr 7, 2010 at 8:16 pm
for the observation. I noticed the same, but had originally created this as a custom work for a friend, who didn't have a concern about that. He simply decided to take it one step further and blog about it in the Roundup Monday, because he liked it so much.
I added the other devices after, due to the number of requests, and hadn't noticed the issue until after I had already exported all of them and had the files hosted. A little too late at that point, unfortunately.
PS- you're welcome, and the kind words are much appreciated.
mgruve Apr 7, 2010 at 8:53 pm
Does this work on tour with 4.7 OS?
CaptainDucttape Apr 7, 2010 at 9:15 pm
With my 9700, the viigo text lines overlap a little on the category pages. I am sure it's a resolution issue, but come on Crackberry, shouldn't a Crackberry theme be seamless when used with a CB version of an app?
n8ivegurl Apr 7, 2010 at 9:35 pm
I downloaded it to my curve 8900 & it's not in my themes. I'm running on the 4.6 OS.
kieln13 Apr 7, 2010 at 11:42 pm
I have a stupid question... on the screen shot what app is that with the green and yellow loopy icon
Michael Hepples Apr 8, 2010 at 9:09 am
It's a Twitter app in private beta called Socialscope.
n8ivegurl Apr 7, 2010 at 11:44 pm
Hey Mike! Thx for the quick response! I just finished downloading and setting things up! I love the fact I can use my own wallpaper, I have three other themes I can do that with. This theme will stay on my list even tho the icons aren't 3D I love the orange. I'm so rockin this theme!!
icewater Apr 8, 2010 at 12:12 am
Can I also get the 4.6 version for the bold 9000? I can't get this link to work, I'm assuming its for the 5.0 bold 9000
Michael Hepples Apr 8, 2010 at 9:17 am
If you haven't already, fire me an email at hepples@crackberry.com and I'll get you a link.
(apologies if you have already done so, I sent a lot of emails yesterday)

I had to delete the theme,...as it began causing an "unhandled exception" and locked my screen whenever I tried to launch the browser. I tried several btry pulls,...resets,..re-download, etc. Same thing,..whenever I tried to launch the brower,...an unhandled java exception would occur! Ratts,...as I really liked this one,...as it worked well with my C6 Corvette logo.

This theme works very well with my "C6 Corvette Logo"! Thanks CB.Com.

I have a hybrid 5.0 OS on an 8330 and the 85xx 5.0 theme link does work on here! I'm excited and grateful to have a CB theme. That orange is so spring/summery. Very nice, thanks!
CrackCurve56 Apr 8, 2010 at 8:48 am
The picture shows a weather icon slot. The theme I downloaded for the Bold 9700 doesn't have it. Why is it in the picture and not on the theme?
Michael Hepples Apr 8, 2010 at 9:12 am
The screenshot posted is from a device with BerryWeather installed. BerryWeather allows you to pin the weather to your homescreen on a theme that doesn't have a weather slot.
vlopez10 Apr 8, 2010 at 11:33 pm
This theme is sik!
jessebo8247 Apr 9, 2010 at 6:16 am
install won't work. I tried downloading this with my Blackberry bold, and for some reason it will let me install it, but when I go to themes it isn't there to set it as a theme. any ideas?
Michael Hepples Apr 9, 2010 at 10:03 am
Theme was exported for 5.0. Fire me an email at hepples@crackberry.com and I'll send you a link for 4.6 OS.
dupa87 Apr 9, 2010 at 8:41 am
Great looking theme. But I can't see to get my WeatherEye to show up on the HomeScreen the way you have it in the picture above. What am I doing wrong?
Michael Hepples Apr 9, 2010 at 10:04 am
Weatherbug doesn't have the functionality to pin to the homescreen. You need BerryWeather to do that.
fn0101 Apr 11, 2010 at 12:34 pm
I tried to reinstall it today but the link apperas to be dead? any sugestion?
carol73 Apr 11, 2010 at 1:29 pm
i tries clicking for my 9700, then it brings me to another screen where it says to sign in google with thi name bla1ze.com. what is this?
afiedanish Apr 11, 2010 at 8:03 pm
As Carol73 said it happen to me too......
vic_machu19 Apr 12, 2010 at 2:06 pm
