* Note to Storm2/OS 5.0 users and Feedback/Bug Reporting: As this is a new app client we're rolling out (let's call it theme store *beta* to be safe), it's always possible you could run into a minor bug or glitch. If that happens, please send your feedback and findings to crackberrysupport@mobihand.com so we can get it addressed asap. Storm2 and OS 5.0 users should pay special attention to the fact that compatibility is still being confirmed by content providers for some themes/apps within the catalogue (you may see some apps/themes listed that are not yet optimized for your device) - if you're on 5.0 already or a Storm2 you may want to wait a day or two. *

Very nice!!
Very Very Nice
Since Plazmic isn't updated as far as I know for 5.0 software all themes for those phones have issues so why would I buy one unless it works perfectly on my phone?
some of us have gotten the themes to run on the storm and storm 2 perfectly with no fixes necessary
see forge, hemisphere and iris all will work perfectly
I'll have to browse around and look at what I like.
Thanks
No, plazmic hasn't been updated for 5.0 yet.
How do we list themes in there?
i put a link in the post above for devs... click it ;)
I saw that right after I posted...
Thanks Kevin and crackberry. This is great!
I'll try to get my themes up.
I only have about 18 themes besides the default theme currently on my phone! I last about a week before I am switching between them. I hope Red Zapper and Natemz and some of the other very creative and functional free theme developers offer their work in this new store. Those thememakers do awesome work and this store sounds like a fascinating place for them to get recognition and gain new fans. Every time a new phone comes out, they get bombarded with requests to port over the theme to the new device. It sounds like this store will help manage those requests more efficiently by providing a 1 stop place to get the theme update. And, then to add discounts on themes... ahhhh! :-)
i'm getting a "mobile Download Error: Trial version is not available for this product" when sending the link to my phone :(
Hi all,
I have downloaded and installed the app, but now I have an error when I try to launch it.
The error says "Uncaught exeption: java.lang.Error"
I have tried to install it a few time and have done a battery pull at various points.
Any thoughts?
same here
same here..im running 4.7.1.40 on a Verizon BB Tour.
Get an error: Trial version of this product unavailable. I am on a Curve 8900 running OS 4.6.1.231.
Same here....same phone and OS too.
Will these themes have the same major memory leak issue as has been reported on the forums?
I get the same trial error message when trying to download.
I get the same trial error message when trying to download.
I am so excited about this new theme store as it's an awesome way to keep up on the hottest themes. Upon downloading the theme client I immediately noticed the Genesis theme, which is a theme I have wanted ever since it was featured on "Deal of the Day." I immediately purchased it and must say I am very pleased!! Keep up the goodwork Crackberry team!!!!
Running Storm 1, OS 5.xxx (non hybrid) and get the trial error message.
I downloaded this ealier this AM(6am) working great , so far :p,
(curve 8330 OS 4.5.0.138)
Same error Trial Version not avail. Storm 2
I like it... I would also like to see an easier way to find backgrounds... Possibly something like this.
I'm going to assume that this is not going to be download-able for anybody with an OS 5.0 or greater
Anyone have any idea when a Plazmic update will be available for 5.0
I get the not available error.
Tour running 4.7.1.40 (yeah i just got it)
why when i try and launch it i get 'Uncaught exception: java.lang.Error' ??
I have a Tour 9630 and got an error message when trying to download.
Error - uncaught exception: java.lange.error
This hasn't been the slickest launch of an app has it?
One of the reasons I hate the current on-device app store is because of the fact themes are littering the space where apps should be shown.
With this new version will themes be removed from the app store?
So bplay has been assimilated? :D Awesome to have it all in one place. I'd love to win the goodie here, too. :)
Really like the idea of a Theme Store. But the app runs dreadfully slow on my 8330 with 36mb free.
Thanks for prviding these free copies.

Error. Trial version not available.... Verizon Storm, 9530 running OS 5.0
It's the carriage before the damn horse again. Nice to have the 5.0 out there but for Storm I users the white bars in landscape is it till they fix it. Or plasmic get their shit in gear.
Damn, I love the new OS for everything it does, and it is merely an inconvenience for the white bars, but really? I paid enough for the damn phone, it "SHOULD" work...no questions or flaws.
Any update?
When I try to use the cbthemes coupon code on the vistalike them I get this message.
"We are sorry, we cannot apply the coupon code to an already discounted price"
Anyone else see this?
as hell and keeps freezing on me
it said that its not available for me 8900 5.0.314 leak
:(
why don't you guys put this on your other store app all in one.. instead of 2 apps
There is an area in the first app store client for themes. Don't really see a need for this.
just a quick note here. Both the download unavailable problem occurring for some device and the start-up issue (java error) are actively being looked into.
Expect more updates as we address them in the next few hours.
for everyone that got the "trial version not available" message, please visit again:
http://software.crackberry.com/themestore/
on your bb browser and you should now get the download.
Awesome, this is a must for every BlackBerry. Looking forward to all the great themes going to be displayed.
This is a great app for those of us who can't seem to find a happy medium with themes.
If you are among the users affected by the "java.lang.Error" message showing up when trying to launch the Theme Store after installation, we might have a fix.
Please visit:
http://www.mobihand.com/themestorealpha
on your bb browser.
You'll be delivered our latest internal build which might address the issue.
Let us know how it goes.
Thanks!
Getting the same exact thing. :(
Ok I'm a owner of a bb curve 8310 got it chritsmas( waitin to get a 9700 AT&T ) along with my iPod touch which I am on now I'm my algebra class on my touch. But a few things tht rim could add as a software update that I'm sure most bb users would agree on is
1.) like the iPhone and the palm phone, it would be great if the added the feature that tells u that u have a text and wat it says while ur browsing the web or listening to music or on a phone call ect.. I kinda get tired of backing out of what u was doing to go to my text...
2.) I'm not sure if the 5.0 software dies this or not but " conversation view " another feature the iPhone and palms have. Tht would be nice for both texting and email...
3.) for the mstorm and possible thunder. For u to be able to lock the click screen and not click it, to just let u be able to tap away at the screen like u do on a iPhone
copy and paste this to other comments and add ur sugestions btw i'm 15 :). These are some great features if u have any thoughts please do tell...
I was getting the same error message as has been stated above. I then went into my browser options and switched the "Browser Identification" Option to "Blackberry" and it downloaded perfectly..
Of course, running OS 5.0... so.. most plazmic themes have issues in Landscape, but once that is taken care of, I'm sure it will be great that I have the app =)
