Professional Precision Plus Today Theme
By

A lot of people like the original themes that actually come default on their BlackBerry devices but wish they had just a little more, such as a today plus section. Sadly, RIM decided to leave the today plus versions of themes off of their newer devices so that leaves us relying on professional theme designers such a Hedone Hawker over at Hedone designs to fill the void we all now have.
Hedone has just completed his latest Precision Today Plus theme, which stays true to the original themes but adds that awesome today section that everyone wants. You can grab this theme for $1.99 from the Shop CrackBerry Store today and is available for 8900, 9000, and Storm devices.

I can't wait to try it out.

m.onthearm has a free version of the today themes, not sure how similar they are to this one.
ALCie Jun 23, 2009 at 1:05 pm
Wait, he added Today and a new background and wants $1.99? As I recall, adding Today in Plazmic is quite simple. Not worth it when you can get ACTUAL premium themes for $3.99 or some pretty amazing ones for free in the forums.

yeah, but they ALL leak. Maybe this one will be leak free. All I want is the today screen. I don't care about new graphics that slow down the phone.
HofstraJet Jun 24, 2009 at 9:04 am
but not for someone who doesn't have the time to deal with Plazmic. This is what I wanted - a today theme that doesn't require me to roll over the calendar to show me today! I paid for the theme and love it (now, if only we could change the font size and color in the today window...)

just bought it and i'm really excited about it!
rvzero Jun 23, 2009 at 1:35 pm
There's already a free Precision Today theme out. I have it on my Curve, and I got it for free. Google it, I'm sure you'll find it too. It may even be on these forums.
How can someone charge for a simple modification that is already available? Robbery.

I love the background but I can't buy the theme... Anyone have an idea where I can find it/get it??
MontanaVista Jun 23, 2009 at 4:42 pm
That is a very nice background. Looks like dune grass?
geoffmcmanus Jun 23, 2009 at 1:50 pm
I downloaded this theme and love it. My only complaint would be that there are no folder icons like the default precision theme has. It shows them in the picture, but they are not available to select and just show as a blank generic folder icon as default. I have a Bold. Can the developers comment on this please?
geoffmcmanus Jun 23, 2009 at 2:56 pm
I sent in a help ticket on their website on this issue. They responded saying they will look into it. I will keep everyone posted.

The theme totally disrupts all your folders on the menu screen. If you had apps organized in folders, this is not for you. The search for a good Today theme that doesn't mess with other settings continues. Oh well!
geoffmcmanus Jun 23, 2009 at 1:55 pm
I have never found a theme that you install that you don't have to reorganize your icons and folders. That organization is a function of whatever theme you are using, not of your blackberry OS. Good luck finding one that reads your settings from another theme.

just when I thought I had found the perfect theme I get disappointed. The today feature only works when you have two rows selected for the desktop. not very wall paper friendly and a bit slow
sruel3216 Jun 24, 2009 at 1:59 pm
and ontop of that it leaks like crazy!! i have never gone below 20. bought it yesturday and i was down to 15. the display sucks too. once it fades out and you click the screen for display to show again, the display is distorted if you look close and can see doubles of the icons and clock...disappointed.
will verizon ever come out with a theme that doesnt leak?
lachlancrawford Jun 23, 2009 at 2:19 pm
does this theme work with .151 hybrid's on 9530?
oshigeru Jun 23, 2009 at 2:20 pm
Anybody know if this works with 4.7.0.151 on the Storm? It's been finnicky with themes.
lachlancrawford Jun 23, 2009 at 2:25 pm
=)
Leo.brazuca Jun 23, 2009 at 3:02 pm
I will make one just like this for ONLY $0.99
Who wants it?
sruel3216 Jun 24, 2009 at 2:01 pm
can you make the display not get distorted when you it fades out and you bring it back up. if you look closely you can tell. there is like double image of the clock and icons. it goes away once you highlight something. just annoying though...
getoffmynuts Jun 23, 2009 at 4:48 pm
Does anyone have an answer if this will work with os .151 hybrid? Would love to have the today screen with the stock theme.
mclarryjr Jun 23, 2009 at 4:52 pm
I would like the Bold version for the Storm. Can that be done?
getoffmynuts Jun 23, 2009 at 5:00 pm
Just confirming that it works with .151 hybrid. Just tried it and it works flawlessly
xplode Jun 23, 2009 at 5:41 pm
Make sure this is made ASAP for the tour! ;)
mclarryjr Jun 23, 2009 at 6:50 pm
Made a couple of wallpapers with dune grass for the storm. They are posted on crackberry.
Lylej2k Jun 23, 2009 at 5:56 pm
I want the bold icons on my storm, so the match the rest of the ones that highlight. For example, facebook and VVM "light up" when selected. Wish they all did that...
mclarryjr Jun 23, 2009 at 6:50 pm
try the theme 10 icon bold by cozper the icon do light up and are the bold icons with transparent background
fabuloso Jun 23, 2009 at 7:20 pm
Theme isnt playing nice with my calendars. Uninstalled.
MontanaVista Jun 23, 2009 at 8:05 pm
I gotta say, I really like this theme. It is simply a mod to the default theme. It works well on my 8900, so far no problems.
edisoninfo Jun 23, 2009 at 10:15 pm
I don't mean to begrudge everyone that has a newer BB, but it is dissapointing when a cool new theme comes out and is not available to me. :( Like most people, I want a very fast Today theme for my curve. I have purchased and downloaded a bunch of very nice ones, but they all slow the BB way down.
Joeydelicious Jun 24, 2009 at 1:58 am
could we update the landscape backgroud to match the main wallpaper?
jdean8 Jun 25, 2009 at 11:06 am
I agree with Hofstrajet, font size on the today window needs to be bigger, other then that very nice theme.
