Jan 15, 2010 Berry, Carriers, Deals, Devices
Wirefly is at it again with an AMAZING deal on one of the best devices that Rim has put out yet. FREE Blackberry Bold 9700 for new or current customers on AT&T plus, FREE shipping and FREE activation. Its insane, but thats almost a $500 savings (as opposed to just walking in and buying one in the store).
You get one of the fastest 3G phones for nothing. nada. zip. So what are you waiting for? I would have ordered one already myself, but I already have the bold, I may however, upgrade my wife’s 9000….
Two Free Christmas themes for the Storm, 9000, 9630 and 9700!!
Well, ok, one is for the storm only (though I bet if you check out CoolBlackBerryThemes you can find it for other devices there) and the second one is for the Storm, 9000, 9630 and the 9700.
First up is the “Disney” theme for the Storm with OS 5.0 ONLY. Its a pretty cool theme with your favorite Disney Characters making an appearance on the screens. It also features some custom Christmas icons that help add to the flair of the theme. Rock out the Christmas Week with the Disney Theme by grabbing it OTA.
Up next is a theme designed for the Storm, the Bold 9000, the Bold 9700 and the Tour (9630). Its a simple and elegant theme that reminds the user of the Reason for the Season as we see two travelers (on on a donkey) headed towards the location of a bright star. It looks to be a today theme with movable icons. Like I said, its a really nice theme. You can grab it OTA:

Free Themes for the 82xx, 95xx, 9000, 9630, 8900 and 8520!
Sep 9, 2009 Themes
Wow, it seems like all we do is post FREE themes! Thats because we believe that you shouldn’t have to pay for something as simple as a theme! Here are a handful of FREE themes for several different Blackberry Devices. If you’re a theme developer and you want your theme featured here, let us know!
First up is a theme for the Flip 82xx. Its a Simple Hidden w/ Weather slot theme for OS 4.6.0/4.6.1. It has a hidden dock with focus icons. This theme has a hidden dock with a single icon on the homescreen for a weather app, or whatever else you want to put there. The 6th icon on the app screen goes in this spot. Icons and fonts are user customizable.
You can Grab it OTA Here for 8220 OS 4.6.0 OTA or 8230 OS 4.6.1 OTA
The next theme today is for you OLDER users of the new Tour 9630. The BIG theme is a simple take on an original. Increased the fonts and indicator sizes make this one an easy to view theme for those with failing eye site. The rest is pretty standard stuff….
You can grab it OTA Here
Next, for you Storm 95xx users, we have something for those who have been longing for the look of the Bold/tour on your storm. The BoldTouch Theme is a bold clone for the storm. There are just 5 and 10 icon basic versions as well as versions with hidden today and a slot in the banner. The theme is nice and clean and features the background from the bold thats come to represent everything good in the world 
.
You can grab the 5 Icon OTA, 10 Icon OTA, 5 Icon with Hidden Today and WB OTA, or the 10 Icon with Hidden Today and WB OTA.
Now we have one for the Bold. Animated Raindrops features an animated background (its very subtle, but the animation is there). I wasn’t too impressed with this theme, but those who like animations might like it.
You can grab it OTA
The Voyage theme for the 8900 pretty much speaks for itself. There are 7 fixed homescreen icons: options, media, contacts, messages, blackberry messenger, calendar and profiles. There are also two user defined buttons that turn blue to the left and right of the profiles icon. There is a hidden today area that can be accessed by scrolling up from the messages and calendar tabs. There are also large tabs that appear for missed calls and missed messages. The battery is in the “vent” to the left of the clock and the signal is in the “vent” to the right of the clock.
Its a sick looking theme you can pick up: OTA
We’ll end today with one for the 8520. All I’m going to say about this one is Calvin and Hobbes

Free themes for the 95xx, 9000 and 87xx!!
Sep 2, 2009 Themes
In a rare showing today, the first FREE theme I want to share with you is one for you 87xx sportin Foosball Lovers out there. If you’re a Cowboys Fan (and come on, who isn’t a fan of “america’s team” besides almost everyone outside of Texas) this theme is right up your alley. The Dallas Cowboys Theme by Xtrme XJ is here and working on 87xx devices. Its a pretty basic theme that speaks for itself. If you’re a fan, you can grab it OTA.
As with all theme installs, please make sure to do a Battery Pull or hard reboot if you can.
Up next and perhaps inspired by the news of the Disney/Marvel wedding, we have a happy little Mickey Mouse theme for the Blackberry Bold from Daniel Black. The theme features some customized icons as well as backgrounds for almost every screen. Its a little on the sweet and gooey side for me, but you Mickey Fans might love it. Its a very Disney theme with customizable home screen icons. You can grab it OTA from MobiMadness!.
Last for now, we have one for the Storm (95xx). Transformers Theme by tcaemt734. The cool thing about this theme is the icon’s. The icons transformer into their respective robot forms with red and purple for the lettering. Pretty old school. Don’t you think?
You can grab it OTA Here.
if you’re a theme designer and you’d like us to mention your theme, drop us a note at tips@blackberryhack.com or on twitter at blackberryhack!

HTC Hero theme for Curve 8900, Bold and Tour!
Aug 24, 2009 Themes
It appears that Blackberry Themer ElyCruz is back with a vengeance this time releasing the HOT theme HTC Hero for the Curve 8900, the Bold and the Tour.
From the forum post:
Hero to the left, Hero to the right everywhere you go there is a Hero around you. EThemes take on Hero UI.
5 user define icons, Calendar, Messages and SmsMms Preview Screens, Weather Slot Icon, QuickLaunch Icon, Media Icon and Network Icon, set it up right you would never have to leave the homescreen at all!!!!!
Weather App must be the first App on your App Screen
Apps 2-6 are the 5 user define icons on the dock
Calendar, Messages and Sms/Mms cannot be your 5 user define icons since they have there own screen. It would look odd since the today part will be covering the middle icons on the dock
You wont be able to select the today part only preview the 4 entries
There are two versions for each model, one with the messages combined and one with them seperated out. The links are provided for both. If you like the theme, make sure to visit the forum posts and DONATE so that ElyCruz keeps sharing the love!

Bunches of Free Blackberry Themes!
Aug 18, 2009 Themes
Yo, thats right! Here we are with some more free themes. This time, the Bold (9000), Curve (8900) and Tour (9630) get the love…
First up are two themes by RockDog97. The Glaskart Bottom Dock Themes have some pretty cool styling and come with either a quicklaunch icon or the today plus feature on the home screen. The icons are slick with the Glaskart look. One thing to note is that in order for the calendar to pop up, it must be in the 3rd position.
You can grab the Glaskart Bottom Dock 8 Icon with integrated Quick Launch Icon (glaskart_BD8QL) OTA Here and the Glaskart Bottom Dock/Today/8 Icon (glaskart_BDT8) OTA.
Here are two themes for the 8900 from kscrum. First is the Voyage theme. According to kscrum:
There are also two user defined buttons that turn blue to the left and right of the profiles icon. There is a hidden today area that can be accessed by scrolling up from the messages and calendar tabs. There are also large tabs that appear for missed calls and missed messages. The battery is in the “vent” to the left of the clock and the signal is in the “vent” to the right of the clock.
You can grab it OTA
Also from kscrum is Infected. Infected itself is a green theme (which might not appeal to everyone) and it has some of the features everyone has come to expect in a theme. It has 10 user defined home icons and a hidden today area that can be reaced from the first two slots(put your messages folder and calendar in the first two slots on your app screen if you want the hidden today to be “reachable”. The new message indicator is a small pill that shows up in front of the icons.
Grab it OTA
First up for the tour is iTour with the hidden today and weather icon. Designed by andyriot this is a pretty simple theme with a lot of extras packed in. Nice, clean and simple.
- icon 1 = weather
- icon 2-7 = bottom dock
- icon 2-6 = goes up to today area
- today area = goes up to profiles
- icon 7 = goes up to icon 1 (weather)
You can grab it OTA

Military Madness Free Themes!
May 22, 2009 Themes
We haven’t done a free theme post in a while (we haven’t done much of anything to be honest!) and we thought in honor of this Memorial Day, we’d post some military themes for you. If you’re a Marine, you’re going to love these two themes for the BlackBerry 9000 (bold) and the 83xx (curve). If you’re not a Jar Head, well, then, perhaps not so much. But if you have a FREE military based theme you’d like us to share, let us know and we’ll be glad to mention it.
The first up is a US Marine Corps Bold theme from CoolBlackberryThemes. Its a basic theme with the 5 home screen icons. Very clean, very crisp, very Marines. You can grab it OTA Here
Up second we have the USMC Blackberry Theme for the 83xx series by b15ginz. Again, this is a simple Marine theme, its a little busier than the one for the Bold, but it’s still a nice theme. The icons on this one are not the stock icons, they’re actually skinned for the marines, so it adds a little extra flare to the theme as well. You can grab this one OTA Here
