How

BlackBerry 7100vStemming from my earlier post on how to perform a hard reset on the BlackBerry Pearl, I received a couple of emails asking about the similar function for the BlackBerry 7100. Frankly, the method to reset the BlackBerry 7100 is identical to the BlackBerry Pearl. Once again, here are the steps.

  1. On your BlackBerry Pearl, go to Options
  2. Select Security Options
  3. Select General Settings
  4. Press the button located left of the trackball
  5. Finally, select Wipe Handheld

Important!! Please note that performing this actions will render all your data lost. Make sure you have a backup of your data before proceeding with the above.

Apple

The craze is on for Apple iPhone and the beautiful interface unveiled in the recently concluded MacWorld Conference 2007. So hot is the interface that it has reached BlackBerry shores in the form of BlackBerry themes. You can now have your very own iPhone theme on your BlackBerry (for 7100s and 8700s models only).

This is an example of how the iBerry theme would look like on a 7100.

And this is how the iBerry iPhone Theme would look like on a BlackBerry 8700.

Both the iBerry themes for BlackBerry 7100 and BlackBerry 8700 can be obtained from BlackBerry Theme Central. To get access to these themes, you will need to donate any amount as long as it is above $4. More information and donation instructions can be obtained from BTC’s website.
