RIM launched the new BlackBerry Theme Studio on Monday I have already started updating existing Storm 4.7 themes to OS 5.0. If you have purchased a Storm theme from me and have upgraded your Storm to 5.0, you should receive an automatic email once the updated theme is posted. If you do not, please email me at themes (at) allthingsberry (dot) com and I will send you a new link.

New in OS 5.0 Themes: homescreen landscape layout, screen transitions, pop-up menus and more!

Storm ZEN Themes

As we see the roll out/release of OS 5.0 for BlackBerry devices, there will undoubtedly be some underlying issues with theme builds. We (theme developers) do not have the ability to build themes specifically for OS 5.0 at the time of this post. Hopefully we will see a patch from Plazmic very soon. A known issue on Storm devices is the distortion of the background image when going from portrait to landscape. While its not very aesthetic, I assure you that this in no way affects the performance of the theme. As soon as a new patch/version is released, all of my themes will be updated (free of charge to existing users) to support OS 5.0. Until then…
