Black messaging? - Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps

A while back while using void, there was a module that you could activate with a folder/config file edit to make the messaging and email apps backgrounds black. Is there any way to do this on Mik's CM7? I really miss that feature.

just go to Messaging--->Settings then check on Black Background...

:FACEPALM:
How did I miss that? Sorry for cluttering the forum with a useless question. Thank you!

I'm glad you asked, because i was wondering the same thing! Thanks for the info.

Changing conversation mode bubbles

I am new to Android; Came from Windows Mobile for years.
I have searched, but have not found how to change the look of the conversation mode of SMS on the Vibrant. I was looking for something a little more professional, than the blue and green bubbles.

check handcent sms in market. very good app with all sort of themes and msg styles. if using dont forget to switch off notifications in original client to avoid double notifications.
Thanks. Are there any cons. to having two messaging apps. on the phone? Can I remove the original?

No cons. I wouldn't recommend removing the original.
Ok, thanks again.
I installed the app., and it let me customize sms pretty much the way that I wanted.
One more thing I think on this, how do I replace the message shorcut, from the 4 shortcuts across the bottom, with the Handcent SMS app. shortcut?

Oh, I figured it out: Applications/Menu/Customizable Grid/Menu/Edit. You are then able to move around some of the 4 icons at the bottom of the screen. When finished, you may select Applications/Menu/Alphabetical Grid, to put the icons back in alphabetical order.

Sense 3.0 lock for AOSP roms! Agile Lock

Finally! someone created and lockscreen replacement that mimics sense 3.0 !
You don't get the nice animated wallpaper but the ring and icons are there.
I downloaded the free version.
In the free version you can download some other apps to gain points. Install those apps, get 300 points to unlock the paid version. Then just uninstall the extra apps.
I'm using it on CM7 and no problems so far.

Works great on oxygen.
Thanks
Cool, thanks
Nice lockscreen - better than the stock android IMO.
80 cents worth it.

Great app,
Thank you

my default font is helvetica, that's the reason...
but there is a option for changing the font, you have to download some apps to collect 300 points and than you get the full version.
here is another one, just take the original background from the htc sense 3.0 lockscreen...
edit: to change the files in the .apk you have to change "properties" and set "open with" default to winrar.
I'm loveing this lockscreen, works very well but i find it anoying that it rotates... is there anyway from it doing so (without locking orientation on all the other apps obviously!!!)
Thanks a lot and great app!!!!
i think in the .xmls files but i can't handle that...

Can you get access to change the lockring itself? I am thinking of making a mario theme for my phone, and I found a lockring which uses the one up mushroom and I love it. Would love to be able to use it, with this app on an aosp rom.
give me the pics and i see what i can do
EDIT: AGILE LOCK HAS BEEN UPDATED, ROTATING BUG BEEN SOLVED.
Is it possible to remove the shortcut icons?

On what ROM do you have this issue?

How can I TOTALLY get rid of the annoying text message lock screen widget?!?!

You know how when you receive a text message and your phone is locked and sleeping... when you wake your phone the first screen you see is the lock screen widget of the person's name that sent you the message and also part of the text message as well. How the hell can I totally get rid of this?? It's veryy annoying and I'd like to use DashClock to view who texted me, not that. Thanks!

That's what I thought too until I realized that I wasn't using any of Samsung's gimmicky add-ons. To each his own, I guess.
For what it's worth, if you click the notification and then swipe in the unlock area like normal, it'll take you right to the app with the notification. I found that out through trial and error.

I always find myself using them. Especially the IR Blaster. Quick Glance is very useful as well.
And yeah I've known that. But like I said, I'd rather use DashClock and the SMS DashClock extension for viewing SMS on my lockscreen. I wanna totally get rid of it somehow!!

Open messaging. Go to settings (in the app) and uncheck message preview.

This may not be what you are looking for, but I use SMS Popup for my notifications and turn off the notifications on the sms app itself. I do not get the notice on the lock screen. So I am thinking there is something in the stock SMS app that makes it show on the lockscreen. So if you any other app to get the notification this would remove it from the lockscreen. I don't know if you want to add another app to your phone to get a notification or not just to get rid of the lock screen.
I like SMS Popup because I like the pop-up message that I can reply to, however you can turn that off and just get the normal notification. I also like that I can assign a different ringtone and LED notifications to a contacts so I can know who is texting me.

Nah man, I already know about that... all it does it not preview the message or tell you the name. It still appears though. I'm looking to totally get rid of that all-together,

Nope.... you misunderstood my inquiry.

I guess this would fall under themeing...

So I was curious as if there was a way to take the stock messaging and email app and invert the blinding bright white screen.. am I looking at themeing or could I try and pull one from another rom and place it on the stock rom and remove the old one.. any ideas or a place I can go to read up and learn how to make my own.. thanks for eveyones time...

You can goto settings and change the background on the messaging open ur messaging and hit menu key and go from there to make it look like you want and you could goto the theming section and flash a theme but its a guess if they have themed the stock email app or not

Has this really worked for you? I have modified it as you indicate but the black color of the bottom of the notification bar is still black.
Could you do screenshots to check this out? I will be very grateful to you :fingers-crossed:

The correct path is /system/emui/lite/prop/local.prop and you have to set ro.build.hw_emui_lite.enable to false
No root? Can't?

No chance to FIX it without rooting the phone?!?
It would be much better if the black background can be removed as below the notification shortcuts.

I really didn't understand that stupid policies by Huawei, because they remove a feature that was already unable on the old EMUI4.1, also on the lite series. Anyway thanks for your answer!
Guys, are you looking for something like this?
Would there be any interest in an app that could modify the colour and opacity of the quick settings panel? And possibly of the notifications panels?
I don't know if you're aware that there is a theme editor in the Playstore. I'm not sure what it does because I can't get it to work on my phone, but if it doesn't do that, I'm happy to make an app for modding these things.
Let me know!

It'll take me a while so in the meantime I can do it for you. Just tell me what theme you use and what hex you want for your quick settings background (+ opacity) and for the quick settings icons if you want to change their color.
This is mine at the moment:
Please don't PM me. We can do it in this thread.
