I liked that it mimics the Android styled phones, right down to that look. I always see comments about wanting BlackBerry to incorporate this feature, but now there&#8217;s an app that delivers for free. What do the options look like?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-12566\" title=\"Capture on 05-19-2010 21-32-59\" src=\"http:\/\/blackberrysync.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Capture-on-05-19-2010-21-32-59-400x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-12567\" title=\"Capture on 05-19-2010 21-33-11\" src=\"http:\/\/blackberrysync.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Capture-on-05-19-2010-21-33-11-400x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So all in, several options are available, and the beta application has some faqs available on the website including instructions. You can stop the normal texts from going to the regular SMS folder after installing by going to Options\/Security\/Advanced Security Options\/Firewall and check SMS. You do not have to enable the firewall for this to work. Your SMS will then go into CrunchSMS.<\/p>\n<p>You can download CrunchSMS from BlackBerry App World and also from the CrunchSMS website itself.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.crunchsms.com\" >Grab your free OTA CrunchSMS from the CrunchSMS site here<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>If you download it, let us know what you think.<\/p>\n<p><i>You&#8217;re reading a story which originated at <a href=\"http:\/\/blackberrysync.com\">BlackBerrySync.com<\/a>, Where you find BlackBerry News You Can Sync With&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>This story is sponsored by the new <a href=\"http:\/\/getappstore.com\">BlackBerry Sync Mobile App Store<\/a>.
