Posted by NDonline Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1190 days ago

Did you figure it out? If it downloaded successfully it should have asked you if you want to reboot? After the reboot, go to Options>themes and choose AppleBerry. It should be the first theme in the list!

I've had this theme from Hastings for a few days. It's truly amazing. I've had no problems at all. And he's put out an update every day. Good work hastings.

Make sure to donate guys, if you are able to.

Great job. Any chance for an 8900 version?

Its too i phonish for me thanks....i'll stick with blackberry since i already have a mac computer, i will keep my blackberry a blackberry all the way around.

 
 
Posted by Estrouse Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1190 days ago

Yeah good call elad. I don't understand this obsession with iPhone themes. Why get a blackberry if you're just going to superficially make it an iPhone? Oh well, I guess to each their own...

 
 
Posted by timberwolf Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

Thank you Hastings, for making my Storm oh-so-beautiful!!

 
 
Posted by nafiz011 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

It makes the storm work faster(scrolling, screen rotation...)!

Posted by nate7761 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

This is my first time installing a new theme. I have downloaded to my computer, but how do I get it installed on my phone? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

 
 
Posted by nate7761 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

...I got it. Feel like such an idiot now! ha

 
 
Posted by JoeDirt2217 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I download the new theme and it looks great! However, my download apps are not showning up, such as Bolt, Quick Launch, ect. Any ideas?

 
 
Posted by nate7761 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I lost my SMS Icon as well? Everything else looks great but I use this a lot!

 
 
Posted by JoeDirt2217 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I found afetr downloading the new theme, it moved all my downloaded app icons back in my download folder. I moved them back to "home" location and everything is working fine, except, I am also missing my SMS icon.

 
 
Posted by nate7761 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

Yeah I had to do the same thing for my downloaded apps...no biggie. Still don't have my SMS icon. Everything works fine cause texts come into the "messages" folder but I just liked having them separate. Everything else works great though...I am really enjoying this so far. It seems to boot faster as well!

 
 
Posted by Papa Lazarou Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

Try this:

-Open Massages
-Click "Options"
-Click "General Options"
-Look at "SMS and EMail Inboxes". "Seperate" should be selected.

Sorry for my bad english. ;-)

 
 
Posted by nate7761 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

Thanks Papa...I had forgot about that! I remembering having to do that when I first setup the phone after purchase but forgot about it. Worked like a charm. Thanks again!!

 
 
Posted by kpl Thursday, Mar 12, 2009 1169 days ago

I have the 9530 version of the storm and it doesn't have the option of clicking "general option" etc. I went under SMS text however and it doesn't give me the choice of making it seperate. HELP?!

 
 
Posted by marcusw Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I've tried it a number of times as well as other suggestions from the thread, eg - typing in the link to my browser but i still cant get it to work - any suggestions please guys?

 
 
Posted by nate7761 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I just went to crackberry.com on my phone's browser and went to the correct page and just used the main "download" link and it installed like most other apps. Good luck!

 
 
Posted by Bob61 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I copied the link from my laptop and sent to my email. Then clicked on link in email and all worked fine.

 
 
Posted by bb-rookie Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I you didnt get it already... Go to crackberry.com on your phone. scroll down and zoom in. Use the curser and click on download now. It will down load it right to your phone. Go to options themes and select new theme. my email is vincetybor@yahoo.com if you need anymore help.

 
 
Posted by d_1000 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I have had it for a few days also...it is great! Please donate to Hastings if you are able, he did his homework on this one. He collaborated with the developer of QuickLaunch for better integration!

Thanks for you for the great work!

 
 
Posted by Naim Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

its a wonderful Theme very impressive who ever has developed it.

 
 
Posted by grkmaster Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

Its a nice looking theme but could never figure out why in all the today themes, that my SMS Messages are sent messages that were from a week or so back and then jump to December?
the Android theme is very nice as well, it needs some love too!

 
 
Posted by kennyl10 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

This theme looks great but it seems to slow my storm up for the theme i was using :(

 
 
Posted by bearkat38 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I think I'm gonna rock this one for a while! Excellent work Hastings!

 
 
Posted by Seggert Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I cant get it to download

 
 
Posted by cobrasvt Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

Beta tested it.

Using it now.

Loving it! I've tried 5 dif themes and this by far is the very best to date. Very complete and has a few features you wouldn't expect in a theme this early on!

Good job man!

 
 
Posted by numb683 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

Cool App, makes the appearance look much nicer then the plain and standard BB Storm theme, my only complaint is you cant touch the top screen to bring up all the icons anymore you have to hit the BB button and I cant set my home screen icons (Top 8) to what I want, it defaults back to E-Mail, Messages, Contacts, Browser, Music, Media, Games and Instant Messanger, othewise I really Like it.

 
 
Posted by yhwhsozo Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

Im SO glad there is a new theme. Lookin forward to more to come

 
 
Posted by cobrasvt Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

Donate if you can...he's put a lot of hard work into this for our community. He's made a couple of versions doing what we've asked to make it a better product and he's not done yet.

Thanks Crackberry friends....

 
 
Posted by yhwhsozo Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I got the theme downloaded. But how do I get my calendar events to show up like the pic above?

 
 
Posted by JoeDirt2217 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

Do you have dates (events) listed in your calendar? If not, add something. It should pop on the home screen.

 
 
Posted by yhwhsozo Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

thanks! it worked!

 
 
Posted by AJAceJack Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

Posted by JoeDirt2217 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

Yes. options<>themes,select theme.

 
 
Posted by bb-rookie Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

How do I get the theme. Ive been trying to figure it out for an hour now and can't get it. Some 1 please email me vincetybor@yahoo.com

I love the theme it looks amazing! Though I seem to have lost my facebook?! and some of my applications say "research in motion limited" whats that mean and how can I get my FB back?! If anyone could help I really would appreciate it!

Thanks

My Call Log is gone from the home screen. I followed some of the other instructions related to putting SMS and other apps back up there, but can't figure this one out. Help, please.

 
 
Posted by and1sxm Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

has anyone been able to change the background and still have the icons bounce? when i change the background, the standard old black transparent buttons come back.

 
 
Posted by yhwhsozo Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I changed my background and the home screen icon still bounce.

 
 
Posted by Hairbear1954 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I have changed my background and my icons still bounce. Not sure what is your problem. Go to the forum for this theme and leave your question there!

Great theme! Worth installing and trying it out!! Most of the bugs are gone.

 
 
Posted by and1sxm Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

it's working now, just needed a battery pull.

Posted by travdzero Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

Is it possible to avoid all the icons going back to default position when you install new themes? I'm thinking it's something I can do with desktop manager but I'm on a mac. If he's releasing new updates on it, this will get annoying.

BTW, i'm getting my icons to bounce after changing the home screen, but I have to have two rows instead of my preferred one row. (although I have to admit the new icons are much less obtrusive to the home screen image)

Nice to have my desktop and phone match!

REQUEST: Can we get an iChat like icon for SMS/MMS? Kind of like the blackberry messenger icon. I don't use bb msgr.

 
 
Posted by Zachriel Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

There are 50 free themes in this thread alone, all of them pretty awesome.
http://forums.crackberry.com/f131/blackberry-storm-themes-thread-157118/

I'm guessing there is probably another 30 or so which haven't been added here yet, and you're currently looking at up to 5 new themes being posted daily :-)

 
 
Posted by yhwhsozp Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1190 days ago

thanks for the link. I didnt know the Storm has all these available.

 
 
Posted by Whitesoxfan13 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I think that the theme is great! I did find out one quirk though. If you choose the options menu to change how many icons are showing, and then try to go back into the menu again, the Options does not work. I have to do a battery pull to get the options menu to function again.

 
 
Posted by JsGrandma Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

How do I change the icons on my home screen? I love this theme and how all I have to do is touch the icon and the items in it show on the screen.

One question though: is there currently a way to make the font size larger for the calendar, emails shown on the screen or maybe that is set for a future update?

Also thanks for making it work with QuickLaunch!

 
 
Posted by Leo.brazuca Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I had this theme, it is great. I loved the look, the icons, everything but my memory when down do 16.6 MB in about 3-4 hours.

I don't have a memory problem like most of the Storm users but with this theme I had a major problem.

I Had to take it out but it is the best looking theme out there...Hope it can be fixed.

 
 
Posted by gettat2d Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

nice theme....looks great but kind of slows phone down a little.... i might give it a few days and let it adapt! thanks

 
 
Posted by wesley42079 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

I too agree. Hastings did a great job in creating such a wonderful theme for my 5 day old BB Storm...I Love It.

I wanted to know, is anybody experiencing any Memory leaks? After I downloaded the theme onto my device last night, my Application Memory Free Space was at 31.0MB, now it's only 14.3MB.

Is this happening to anyone else?

 
 
Posted by wesley42079 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

*****Update*****

After I did a battery pull, my Application Memory Free Space reverted back to 31.0MB.

I hope I won't have to continually do a battery pull in order to view my Update memory.

 
 
Posted by Hairbear1954 Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1190 days ago

It appears at this time the memory leak is due to the theme. You will have to either change back to the original theme or do battery pulls.

I am sure as the theme is upgraded this problem will be worked on. But it is just the nature of the beast I am afraid.

 
 
Posted by janglesjr Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1191 days ago

Thank you very much for this theme - amazing. Being an avid Mac user this is the ultimate theme and I am fully familiar with the icons.

I am not having any memory leak issues; I'm still hovering around 39mb.

 
 
Posted by dpfotog Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1190 days ago

Posted by dcmarch Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1190 days ago

It looks like a great program. I am new with blackberry how would I go about loading this AppleBerry Theme.

 
 
Posted by citi Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1190 days ago

It's nice. It appears that some elements were designed around a light/white background. I noticed when the spinning beach is active, you can see white fringing around the animation. Slightly annoying. Also, the mouse icon is slightly annoying because as you scroll, it moves with the page. It seems like it should stay with your finger.

Question, how do you get the calendar to stay up all the time? Is there an option for this?

Having said that...excellent work!

Posted by Turrese Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1190 days ago

Great theme! I was pretty hesitant to try it out, mostly because I'm not completely sold on turning my beloved BlackBerry into an iPhone, but I downloaded it and I LOVE it! Excellent job on this one, it works great and looks great, too. Thanks so much for all your hard work!

I downloaded the application yesterday and i found that there was no sms folder anymore and it was only a messages folder. but also on the homepage, instead of showing texts i received it was the messages i have sent.
is there a way i can change that so it shows incoming messages?

Posted by hastings Wednesday, Feb 18, 2009 1190 days ago

Glad you all like the theme. I spent an absolutely huge amount of time getting it up and running.

To those of you having trouble installing it:

You must click on the link from within your phones browser. Alternatively, you can email yourself the exact link (capitals DO matter) and click on it from within your BlackBerry. It will then install automatically.

Once installed, go to Options -> Themes on your device and select "AppleBerry".

Cheers!

 
 
Posted by redberry1 Thursday, Feb 19, 2009 1190 days ago

Hi Hastings,
Looking at your excellent AppleBerry Theme which I would like to use, but I have had a problem installing it. The download that you have pit on your thread has a .jad extension and my BB is asking for a .cod extension. I am based in UK and at the moment we seem to be a bit behind in firmware updates and are currently on v4.7.0.78 whilst North America seems to be up to .106 or higher. Also I see that your system requires a Plazmic Reader which I have never heard of.
Is this why your download is a .jad and not a .cod? Do you know if this plazmic reader is in a later version of the Storm firmware?
Have tried this both via Storm and via download manager.
Sorry to ask so many questions, I hope you have a moment to put me out of my misery.

Thanks

Posted by Tommy6404 Thursday, Feb 19, 2009 1189 days ago

The thing I did is i went to the site from my blackberry to get it on. I went to the crackberry main page, then to this article, then to the link to the fourms, where the guy has 2 links (appleberry 4 and appleberry 8) and you click on it from your phone and it will ask you to download and Viola! Its on your phone!!!

Ever find away around the broken links? Ive had this theme for over a year and just got a replacement phone from Verizon... Appleberry is far better than the standard theme... Im dying here
