How is everybody? Ok, I am going through my BB, and I want to delete some themes, but it is telling me I can only delete the ones I put on. I am wanting to know if there is a program that I can use to allow me to delete some things that have been preinstalled. I thank you all ahead of time. Take care

You should be able to go to Options / Advanced Options / Applications and delete any application that you do not want on your Berry.

BE VERY Careful that you do not delete your CORE themes.

Have you tried to use desktop manager? I know you can delete demo vid, pics......the themes may be a bit trickier tho. I'll look into it and see what i can find.

READ THE FOLLOWING IN ENTIRETY BEFORE DOING THIS>


Download and install your BB OS and move the following out of
C:\program files\common files\research in motion\Shared\Loader Files\ (YOUR OS VERSION) \Java into some other folder elsewhere. make a unused folder and move that stuff in there in case you need to place it back in.

net_rim_bb_media_8320_320x240_b.cod (These are the dumb pictures)
net_rim_bb_media_tunebundles_sonicnetworks.cod or net_rim_bb_media_tunebundles_qualcomm.cod (these are BB ringtones)

Once you're done moving files around:
1) Open the Desktop Manager and connect you phone
1.5) Or if your phone is connected while you are doing this follow step 2 - 3.
2) Click on Application Loader , click Next
3) Click Next again
4) You'll see some items its going to delete , Click Finish and let it do its thing
5) The blackberry will reboot and just check your memory.

PS: Don't get all "delete happy" and start removing stuff you do not know about, back up your device before these changes..and one more thing...I'm not responsible if you brick your blackberry.

Themes are the same way...but be careful what themes you are deleting. The best thing would be to just move them in a different folder in different location so if something does go wrong you can always bring it back.
Hope this helps!
