I Dream Of 6 - A OS 6.0 Inspired Premium Theme Now Available

The name is fitting for this new theme. It's what most BlackBerry users out there are thinking. Now, while we are still waiting for OS 6.0 to be rolled out there is no reason we can't have the look of it while we wait. Ryan Hamrick has been hard at work ever since the screenshots of OS 6.0 dropped. And now, the results of that work are now available for everyone to enjoy. Available for Storm, Bold 9700, Tour and finally 8900 series devices. I dream of 6 is available for only $4.99 and looks pretty solid on any device.

Will this be available for OS 6.0?.... Ehhhhh ha ok I'm done but theme really does look nice! :)

 
 
Posted by 312 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

Probably the only theme I'd ever buy for my 9700. But, I know that when I buy it, the actual OS is going to be leaked. (I'd pay $5 for that. :) )

I get it milkpowder. I look at it then seen your post. Too Funny! Lol!

The theme looks good but come on, if that's what's so different about OS 6 plus the webkit, RIM still has some show and tell to do and it better be good. I left the storm because I thought something was missing and it does and I'm waiting for RIM to do something special with their phones because they do look the sexiest in the market. I do want to purchase another storm in the future. So get on it RIM.

You, shut up! - Have you looked at the screen shots of OS 6? You couldn't have because OS 6 has new app screens and the options have changed. There are support apps that are similar to widgets and more things that we can not speaking of, having not seen it operate physically...

99 cent and better version: http://forums.crackberry.com/f177/os-6-0-theme-free-95xx-padgoi-457485/

 
 
Posted by Bla1ze Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

What exactly makes it a OS 6 theme?..it's certainly not the icons because they are stock 4.5-5..not to mention, only the 95xx is supported.

 
 
Posted by evilhunter101 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

What is so wrong with the icons? it's not like they are THAT much different from the new ones. And Yes, I know its only 95xx supported, hence the "Storm2 Users!" Also, there's a coupon in that link somewhere to get the theme free.

Other than the icons it looks more like OS6 than the theme you are advertising. Unless the screen shots just fail to show them the theme is missing 1, the horizontal line that separates the clock banner from the sounds profile/search banner.2, Vertical lines right next to the sounds and search symbols. Those horizontal and vertical lines should be white btw. 3, the different home screen names "favorites, all, options." 4, date under battery icon, not over time. 5, 1xev should be next to the signal meter not under.

With all those wrong things, the theme I linked to is more OS6-ish than the theme you did, other than icon issues.

 
 
Posted by mrtolles Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

Agreed! And plus, the theme advertised also states that he has only themed the icons he can see and NOT the rest. I think Padgoi version is better even if it is only available for the 95xx. My Opinion.

 
 
Posted by RyanHamrick Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 762 days ago

"Inspired"

And can I show you something?

http://www.boygeniusreport.com/wp-content/gallery/blackberry-9670/blackb...

Little different on the device than on that original screenshot leak, eh?

By the way, yours is very nice, too! A great option for those not looking to spend so much. You're awesome at what you do, and fast, too! Much respect.

I appreciate your attention to detail. I share that quality. We were just looking at different details, it seems.

Keep rockin, and if you ever decide to spend countless hours building OS 6.0 icons from scratch based on fuzzy leaked images, I'll gladly pay $5.00 for your theme and rock them side-by-side!

Cheers

 
 
Posted by evilhunter101 Friday, Apr 23, 2010 762 days ago

to make it clear that I did not create the theme I linked to. I do think it is better than this one. But, once again I did not build it, all credit goes to Padgoi. He truly makes great themes.

I see what you are saying about it looking different on device from the screen shots, but, I think that may be because that is not a touchscreen phone. The original screen shot leaks from what I know came from some sort of touch screen phone, which would be similar to the one I linked to. This may be our first clue to the differences between OS6 for keyboard devices and touchscreens. Good catch.

 
 
Posted by iLovemy_bb Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

I agree with this guy! That theme is cheap because it looks cheap. I don't see much '6' happening at all with this theme. Give me a break.

 
 
Posted by evilhunter101 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

This is your response? You have no argument here at all. Lol. Look at my reply to Bla1ze and learn what is wrong with this theme.

In case you don't feel like reading it, here's a recap for ya: The theme I linked to is much more OS 6 like than the one in this blog post in every way except that it doesn't have the OS 6 icons.

 
 
Posted by iLovemy_bb Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 762 days ago

You know what, you're right. The linked theme is much better since it has the actual features of the OS. This one does have just the icon difference. The other guy should add the icons and this guy needs to add the actual functionality. I went in blindly on my last response.

 
 
Posted by evilhunter101 Friday, Apr 23, 2010 762 days ago

The guy I linked to wants to spend the time doing the icons, so don't count on that happening. This is a good theme as well, I just don't agree with the amount being charged for it. If this guy threw in the actual features it would be perfect in my opinion and since I named them all he should be able to quite easily (theoretically).

 
 
Posted by kstagg Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

Curve 8520 gets released in November 2009 and already it is obsolete. Wonderful. No way that the new OS will not bring my phone to a crawl, even if they did try to port it over to the 8500 series.

I wouldn't mind seeing a new Storm come out though. I'd be open to upgrading to that. :)

 
 
Posted by iLovemy_bb Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

Well the 8520 was released obsolete. There were devices ahead of it when it was released. The 8900 was here and the 9630 was out. It was released as a mid-level berry to attract people who needed a less expensive solution.

 
 
Posted by kstagg Friday, Apr 23, 2010 762 days ago

It was supposed to be a new phone to replace the 8330. How was it "released obsolete"?

I guess I just have sour grapes knowing that I need to upgrade and I do realize that RIM cannot be forced to cripple its new OS just so that it will be adaptive to the entry-level devices. I just hope that the new devices (Storm 3 anyone?) will be worth upgrading to and are a significant design departure from the current line.

Too many of the current devices look too similar. I mean, even the Bold 9700 and the Curve 8520 from a distance look like the same phone. Sure, the Storm is radically different from the others. Look no further than the right sidebar of the page you are reading this post on and look at the thumbnails of the various models and you'll see what I mean.

I want to see the Slider too. Hopefully WES will show us some new models and that ATT will offer some of them.

anyone else having any trouble adding this to their "cart"

 
 
Posted by mrakifa Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

This should be a free theme...

 
 
Posted by BerryGuy25 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

$4.99 is pushing it.

 
 
Posted by rion_j Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 762 days ago

agreed! 4.99 is way high for an incomplete theme. since the dev openly admits the theme is not done, it should be on sale. this is ridiculous!

 
 
Posted by webmastir Friday, Apr 23, 2010 762 days ago

only an idiot would actually pay 5$ for such a basic theme

 
 
Posted by Jonneh Saturday, Apr 24, 2010 761 days ago

I don't know about all that, but, for someone who has a bit of patience, you're basically getting this for free once they roll out OS 6.0. Yes, it will be 900 years from now, but still. Maybe I'm just a cheapass (I am), but I can't bring myself to pay $5.00 for something I already know I will be getting for free in the near-ish future.

With that said, since these are the circumstances, maybe they should either make it a free theme, or at least $0.99.

 
 
Posted by Rezn Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

I was pretty wowed at the look of OS 6.0, I'm a big fan of well crafted product. I'm curious if he customized the other icons, tasks, bbm, compose ect. I would love to put a review on my site of this.

 
 
Posted by cook0066 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

Just Downloaded this onto my 9700. Awesome. Love it

 
 
Posted by jonathon_flores Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

i just want the icons...can i just have the icons??/ and if so..HOW!?

 
 
Posted by bjustice Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

Sorry if that is a stupid question. I wonder if it would be worth it to use. I don't know a lot about themes.

 
 
Posted by evilhunter101 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

I just checked the mobihand link for compatibility and it doesn't support the 8530, sorry. Keep in mind the developer may choose to add other devices later on so you may want to re-check after some time.

About it being worth it to use, well that's completely up to you. Some people like to change their themes and others don't.

 
 
Posted by bjustice Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

Thank you!

 
 
Posted by evilhunter101 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

Glad to help! :)

 
 
Posted by Valace2 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

bah. Give me the damn OS RIM.

 
 
Posted by evilhunter101 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

right now I'd be satisfied with the freakin browser! Opera/Bolt is such a pain!

 
 
Posted by Valace2 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

The LG Frigin Rumor Touch has Opera Mini built it. That device has a better native browser than we do.

(not really it scrolls for shit, but its still Op Mini)

 
 
Posted by evilhunter101 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

lol @ the disclaimer "(not really it scrolls for shit, but its still Op Mini)"

But i didn't know that phone came with op mini... learn something every day.

 
 
Posted by jumpman89 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 763 days ago

would love the icons as well... someone point us in the right direction...

 
 
Posted by JoelTruckerDude Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 762 days ago

What the hell is so spectacular about this that makes it worth 5 bucks, I can change my font to look this way already and most of the icons are the same as I have now. If I wanted "Zen" I can change to it NOW without paying 5 bucks.

Sorry, I don't get it?

 
 
Posted by ale7714 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 762 days ago

I think it's a nice try but only have a few icons are customized the rest are the same as the default icons.... I think is overpriced.... Anyway, thanks for the info

 
 
Posted by six4seven Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 762 days ago

I like this theme, but for $4.99, you gotta be kidding me!

Developer, please lower the price at market value of $0.99....maybe $1.99

 
 
Posted by shrevesenior07 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 762 days ago

Bought it
Love it
Hope 6.0 is just as nice!

 
 
Posted by diediedieyoudie Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 762 days ago

Does the wallpaper that you choose stay on screen when you open the full menu? Or is it the one that came with the theme?

 
 
Posted by CustomGrain Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 762 days ago

This is not a very close representation. There is no attention to ddetail here.

 
 
Posted by Mystery252 Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 762 days ago

i bought it and i probably should have read some more about it before i did. the icons are pretty slick, but menu fonts are not customizable which is a biggie for me. and the full menu wallpaper is the same as the one that came on the theme. a little more work and it would be sweet, but right now im unsatisfied with it.

 
 
Posted by StaticFX Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 762 days ago

There is a better free theme in the theme section of the forums (storm) OS 6.0 Theme - Free/ 95XX by Padgoi - very well done!

 
 
Posted by gjbsource Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 762 days ago

This one missed the battery skin.

 
 
Posted by skyys Thursday, Apr 22, 2010 762 days ago

Someone tell me what makes this theme so awesome? I had to read all the comments to try and see what the big deal is. Other than the icons and placement of the date over the time, what makes this different than my stocked storm theme? what makes this worth $5 to everyone?

 
 
Posted by patm7330 Friday, Apr 23, 2010 762 days ago

YAWN!!! come on, what's "different"? looks like the same boring theme that's on my BB now. Don't get me wrong, LOVE my BB, but the icons leave ALOT to be desired

 
 
Posted by bb89001313 Friday, Apr 23, 2010 762 days ago

i just downloaded the theme for my curve 8900 and realized im still runing os 4.6, not 4.7. the theme downloaded to my phone but i cant find it. will it not work because att sucks and wont release any new os?

 
 
Posted by glenninduluth Friday, Apr 23, 2010 762 days ago

Being worth $4.99 is up to each user. However, this is the first theme I have ever purchased that I feel was worth the money. Looks great. Love the transitions. I have no idea (nor does anyone really) if this is what 6.0 will finally look like. But it is fresh and it works great! Think about it: You probably spend more on your morning coffee at Starbucks and you piss it away an hour later. This theme will still be there! :-) Love it on my Sprint Tour!

 
 
Posted by danny.boi Friday, Apr 23, 2010 762 days ago

Okay I ordered this a few hours ago. All I got was the PayPal receipt but still haven't gotten the actual OTA download link yet.

Why does it take so long?

Wallpapers I've emailed myself from this site sometimes never get delivered either to my Gmail account.

 
 
Posted by jhamal242 Friday, Apr 23, 2010 762 days ago

Nice theme but $4.99?
Shout me when its $0.99 or in the summer/fall when os 6 drops for the 8900

 
 
Posted by alan1467 Friday, Apr 23, 2010 762 days ago

Great theme love it 10 out 0f 10

 
 
Posted by infinus Friday, Apr 23, 2010 762 days ago

I don't know whether RIM will make money on OS6 based devices...
N
But this guy..
Will sell theme and make a lot of money.
.........

Clever than RIM.

 
 
Posted by woelv Friday, Apr 23, 2010 762 days ago

lol, this is cheap. but of course i fell for it :P
should definitely be free.

 
 
Posted by bgwavrder Friday, Apr 23, 2010 762 days ago

Not sure why anyone wants to pay for a basic theme. Not to be insulting, but I wouldn't use this on my 9700 if it was free.

 
 
Posted by Rezn Saturday, Apr 24, 2010 761 days ago

sometimes I'm a little slow, but I catch up. Nice way to make a quick 10g's though. I do really like the work I found at his blog/flickr. This is.. I won't say but I'll let the rest of you put it on your site's and rake in the dough.. from those poor bears. Everyone who has this screenshot and link up on their sites are FEEDING THE BEARS.

excuse my English
OS 6 has the original theme and icons SMS messages while larger ones used in reproduction are those used now.
Then, the original theme when it gets a blue rectangle on the SMS icon turns yellow: So lack of details that make a difference
