Explicit is the latest theme from Hedone Design. Explicit was designed to make great use of the BlackBerry screen real estate and look amazing doing so. Wallpaper-friendly with 10 user customizable icons on the main screen gives Explicit the minimal look while allowing access to everything important. The battery and signal meter are nicely tucked away in the center console as well, so as to not knock off the overall the smooth look and fluidity of the theme.

Be sure to check all screenshots to ensure what functions will work on which devices. As a special bonus, use coupon code "EXPLICIT20" on the mobile checkout to get 20% off the $6.99 original price.

Explicit - A Premium BlackBerry Theme From Hedone Design With Some Serious Style
...shopping for expensive themes during lay-offs?? I dunno...I'll stay with free for now at least.
...I'll still admit, seems like a hot theme!
Reminds me of the Corporate Goth theme, which I'm using now, and is only $2 in the Crackberry store.
...all the theme themes featured by good ol' Bla1ze are great themes and I am a fan of everyone. These guys offer great themes and they are without a doubt aimed to please. But did anyone notice that they ONLY feature themes by their buddies? They don't care about anyone else. I know this by personal fact. Anyway, I wanted a soap box. This is a great theme. Just purchased it for my 9700 and it looks exceptional. Great job Hedone, as usual. :))
thanx jxj!!! ;)
Yeah I noticed this a while ago about the little network. Scratch my back...etc.
Very sweet looking theme, I just can't afford the price!! Maybe soon it will be free or at least a smaller charge!
This looks Really cool anybödy purchased It already ? Is It Worth itv? I think so looks very cool i think i'll buy It !
Just purchased it, it looks very clean & sleek on my 9700. Awesome work Hedone :)
Hey Laura!!! Thanx!!! ;)
The navigation thingy is pretty cool but i can't get quick launch to work with it so it's a no go..
Great Idea, I just put the quicklaunch on the navigation thingy and it works on my tour. It works great thanks for the idea.
Are there any transitions of this theme? WHy the hell don't they offer trial versions?!
Waaaaay too expensive!
One lousy screen shot, no trial. Maybe I'd like to see how it works before I drop 7 bills on a THEME!!!
Let me know how this works on the 9530 please.
That is one sweet looking theme and I predict it will be a big seller for Hedone Designs. This is on my must-buy list!
I'm a total theme junkie so I had to purchase this and I LOVE it! Having been disappointed by a hedone theme purchase before (metallic), I was unsure. But this one's unique, fast, clean, and fun. Only criticism I have is that when using bb messenger when I highlight my status bar the highlight color and text color is the same so I can't read the text at all.
Other than that I totally recommend it and it's worth the money in my opinion! Thanks Hedone!
Really great theme!
I usually dont buy themes, but this one got me :)
...so I broke down and bought it because I think it's an awesome design. However, I realized shortly after I already paid for it, there is no signal meter and in BBM...text disappears when I highlight my profile at the top. Also, menu fonts are very small. It is a great design and it's very snappy, but it needs a little touch up work. Hopefully an update will be released soon that fixes these issues. Great theme, but not worth anywhere near $6.99
Hey Many!
Signal meter are dots in second circle (after battery). Fonts are a bit small for some, but theme wouldnt look as it does with bigger fonts.
As for text that you can not see... its not that disappear... OS in some cases takes themed font and in some not... in this case they take font color instead of menu color in BBM.
After one day of using this theme, I'm still impressed, but theme NEED to have some changes/fixes, like others here wrote.
Here is something I would like to see updated:
- application title on pie highlight should be above the wheel not under (my thumb is hiding it)
- in Messages list, dark grey (almost black) and light grey for highlighted message is not so good; maybe colors should change "meanings"
- date should have white text and a little bigger font
- why is BBM icon so dark? all other icons are OK (I'm using 9520)
- I'd like to see redesigned notification icons from the top of the home screen (unread messages, etc.)
Hedone is almost *always* having a sale, so at least SOMEONE *is* thinking about the whole "layoffs" issue.
HINT: Your BB is *not* an iPod (just in case anyone found themselves long in fruit-flavored electronics), SOOO… The trackpad NOT being circular, if you remember that UP is right-to-left and DOWN is left-to-right, you will find this *MOST* useful in dealing with this theme.
UN-like most circular themes on MY BB, this one is still on there. I am still of the opinion that any visual issues people with the Bold 9000 are having *might* be that specific screen type that RIM used because I've seen this on BOTH the 9000 and on my 9700 and the latter is MUCH clearer.
Easy to navigate, easy to customize (which is usually the part theme designers lie about, LOL), I've been pretty happy with this one. Clean, *FAST* (another thing they usually lie about - there is something sooooo un-sexy about pressing a button and having to order lunch while your theme tries to figure out what it is you've been up to - very Windows-98-Chic) and well-executed.
Sure hope a version for the torch 9800 is in the works...I love the look and colours of this theme.
