Here is my small contribution to the community.

After trying many combination I have finally an ATT curve working with my T-mobile with all themes unlocked and no Push to Talk.

PTT is useless for me as for many. Therefore you can free some memory and have your curve run faster.

Files below were tested with O2, Att/Cingular and Rogers latest OS.

Download, unzip and place both files in :

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\Shared\Loader Files

File blackberry.alx will unlock all themes

File platform.alx will remove PTT

Once you have installed both files you need to remove vendor.xml from your pc:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader\vendor.xml

Then connect your curve to the PC and launch Desktop Manager.

If no message is shown during synchronization then launch Application Loader and simply press next a couple of times.

Your device will reboot automatically. Unplug after reboot and enjoy your new themes.

Best,

PS: if I forgot something let me know I will edit my post.



***PLEASE NOTE***
This method works for some, others it DOES NOT. If you decide to use this method, and it doesn't work, here is the fix (if you receive app 200 error after installing OS)

1) uninstall the OS that you just installed, from your PC - in add/remove programs.
2) reboot PC and reinstall the OS again - to your PC
3) edit the blackberry.alx file using this thread/how to
http://blackberryforums.pinstack.com...or_themes.html

to delete the ptt feature, simply follow THIS path exactly (AFTER you install the OS back on your PC) and delete the file.
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\Shared\Loader Files\8300-v4.2.2.114_P2.4.0.53\Java

the digits in red may be different, but as long as its the 8300 OS you will be fine.

Nice post cizake...

Does the blackberry internet browser work with this? I'm on O2 os and on Friday i tried with Rogers and T-Mobile Germany and didn't have it. Was I doing something wrong?

Great stuff, thanks!

Thanks bro! Will this work on future OS upgrades as well?

I do not see a shared folder under C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\.

I have
apploader
modem drivers
rim device manager
usb drivers

Where do I copy to?

Did you install the handheld Software on your PC?

thanks cizake. good trash

Reinstall your Blacberry software suite and then try again.

I did reinstall and still no shared folder.

Can I copy to another folder to get themes and rid of PIT?

Where are you looking for the shared folder? If you installed the handheld software, you will have the folder. Did you execute the file or just download it?

Hope this helps.
