Thanksgiving themes for the 71xx, 81xx, 83xx, 87xx,88xx and 9630
Nov 24, 2009 Themes
Wow! What would thanksgiving be with out something to give thanks for? Of course, there’s family, but you deal with them on a daily basis. How about giving thanks for your Blackberry and the fact that you can CHANGE the theme on it as often as you like?
To celebrate the Thanksgiving Feast that awaits us in two days (my in-laws have already started cooking!) here are three Thanksgiving Themes (two of them based on Charlie Brown) for your crackberries.
First up, we have a Peanuts Thanksgiving theme from Daniel Black. This theme works for the 71xx, 81xx, 83xx, 87xx, and 88xx series devices and features everyone’s favorite blockhead and his lovable beagle, Snoopy. You can grab the version for the 71xx and 81xx OTA here and for the 83xx, 87xx and 88xx OTA Here
Next up is another Peanuts Theme, this one from CoolBlackBerryThemes and is a little crisper. Its good for the 8100 and the 8300/8800 devices and features Chef Snoopy on the homescreen with a good lookin bird ready to eat.
Lastly, is a Today Plus Thanksgiving theme for the 9630 (should work on any device with OS 5.0 like the 8900 or the 9700 as well). Its a simple Thanksgiving theme with out the peanuts characters by RenoCat. You can grab it OTA Here.
We hope you have a happy thanksgiving!

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!

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

In Memoriam… Free Themes for MJ #MJ
Jul 8, 2009 Themes
Personally, I haven’t been paying too much attention to the media circus surrounding the King of pop and his untimely passing (largely because I wasn’t a ‘fan’) however, as a TON of MJ themes have popped up, I thought it would be a good idea to feature some of them here… So, in no particular order…
First up we have one for the Curve 8900. Its a pretty well done theme if you like MJ. The background is an artists rendering unlike most of the themes and the Icons on the Homescreen are customizable (would you expect anything else?). Its basic, and black and simple. Not at all over done. You can grab it OTA HERE
Up next we have one for the Bold (9000). The first one up is titled “Michael Jackson (2)” and features several photos of the king of pop as well as some nice custom icons that blend well with the theme. The icons on the home screen are customizable and everything in this theme has a nice feel to it. Of course, what else would you expect from a Cool Blackberry Themes theme? You can grab it OTA HERE
Next up, we have two little numbers for you storm users out there. The first is a nice theme by Cool Blackberry Themes. It features several images of Jackson and what I think are customizable icons on the home screen (I don’t know as I don’t have a storm unless anyone wants to help with that??). You can grab this theme OTA Here.
Up second for you storm fans is the MJ Forever Theme by Shaydlife. This theme appears to be another well done theme that works in either Landscape or portrait mode and has several images of MJ that aren’t on the other themes. Something that makes it a little different. You can grab it OTA Here
Last, We have something that will cover a broad spectrum of phones (everything but the pearl I believe…), and that’s Gone too soon – Special tribute to the King of Pop by idBerry. Gone Too Soon is available for : 9000 | 8900 | 8820/8800/8700/8320/8310/8300 and requires OS 4.5 or higher so make sure you update your device before downloading this theme. You can grab it OTA for the following devices: 9000 | 8900 | 8820/8800/8700/8320/8310/8300

Free themes for the 8900, 9000 and 9500…
Mar 27, 2009 Themes
So its been a couple of weeks since I posted last here (for several reason) and I thought I’d come back with a couple of free themes for you today. Starting off is a cool theme “series” for the Storm. I’m only going to feature one theme out of this series, you can decide if you want the others. The Glow Theme and Glow Sliding Top Dock Theme is a pretty nice simple looking theme for the storm. It features 10 user-defined icons on the home screen, Fast, fully working hidden docks “slide” 5 icons onto the top of the home screen (10 Icon Glow Sliding Top Dock theme only) or 4 icons onto the bottom of the home screen (Glow Hidden “L” theme only), “Clicking” the middle of the home screen between the two rows of icons launches the application menu just like on the Default Zen theme, “Clicking” the time in the banner launches the Clock application, “Clicking” the signal strength indicator in the banner launches the Manage Connections application, Hidden today feature, allowing you to see up to 10 New Emails/SMS’s or Calendar entries, Professional, clean and simple appearance with the BlackBerry Bold icons. You can pick it up OTA
The next theme is for the Curve 8900 (Javelin) and is a pretty snazzy number called Zulu. It features a hidden dock on both sides and bottom and features customizable icons. This is by far one of the cooler themes I’ve come across in a while. Grab it OTA
Lastly we have a theme for the Bold. Serenity Now is a peaceful looking theme that rearranges the layout of the homescreen and changes up the font a little bit. The icons are customizable and the theme is a little serene. Check it out at BlacklightThemes.
