is there anything the 7520 can do with these themes and ringtones etc?

[rcbjr]

I don't think the 7520 is specifically supported and if its format is the same as any of the supported BBs. I don't know anything about the 75xx series BB. If you find one of the sopported BBs with the same screen size you might try to install one of those, but you must have OS 4.1 for them to work.

Hope this helps.

nextel doesnt have 4.1 yet... atleast i have not found it yet.. Im jamming in like all this info and their site and other places in at one time.. so info right now is a little jumbled

[mrogers]

I have read through this entire thread and have managed to make myself a neat theme for my 7290 using a bunch of manually-resized 8700 icons and a custom top banner. But I'm having a few problems:

1) Each time I export, the Theme Builder complains that the home screen wallpaper image can't be included because it's over 60KB, but it's really only about 20KB. I have removed it and readded it to no avail.

2) More serious, I can't get the font sizes in my theme to obey the setting in Options > Screen/Keyboard. I can only hardcode a size, and it stays that size on the device no matter what size you specify in your options.

3) Finally (and this is directed at KonTiki, in particular), how in the HECK did you get the cool 8700 banner to load into a 72xx, like in your screenshot on the first page of this thread? And I'm not just talking about the background, I know where all the image files are and everything, but from that shot it looks like you actually got the 72xx to use the 8700's banner.svg and indicators! I've been rooting around for hours, messing with the .properties files and banner.svg files to no avail. Please help! I've read through this entire thread too, just to make sure I didn't miss anything. Could you please specify how you did that?

Did you install the Plazmic theme reader? If so, which way did you try installing Bliss -- desktop or OTA?

Oh, I just remembered: you have to reboot after installing the theme. It won't show up until you do. I don't know why you have to reboot for themes, I think it's dumb, but that's the way it is.

I loaded them via desktop and then it rebooted but didn't show them. Let me try again.

There is no 4.1 OS for the 7250, that's why it doesn't work.

Sorry.

Works great on my 7290 w/4.1 OS. Thanks MRogers!

[mrogers]

Oh that's right, I forgot about the 7250! Thanks for covering that, Scotty_T. I need to add that to my site.

[denning]

is there a way to group the icons in sub-groups ala the vodaphone theme?

[blueman]

Does anyone know how to create a list theme for the 8700c? I don't see any way to do this with Plazmic SDK. Any suggestions?

[rcbjr]

Not yet available, but I thik it's on the list of possibilities for a future release. Don't know the priority though. Plazmic does read the forum from time to time and will probably listen to our requests


Hope this helps.

Need to save in png24 format to obtain the transparency. Otherwise, the dithered border pixels will default to opaque.

Wow, that was dumb.

[KonTiki]

No. You need the .thm file that was used to create it otherwise you cannot modify it.

Hmm. I looked through the thread and didn't see this answered, so here goes. I run Windows Server 2003 (at work, don't jump on me) as something of a workstation OS and I cannot get this installed. It says it's only supported under 2K/XP Pro but I've been able to run everything (and I mean everything) for XP Pro under 2K3 as well. Compatability mode = no dice, any ideas?
