(Request) Inverted Stock Messaging App - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm really liking the stock messaging app; but I hate the White. Has anyone found an inverted one? I want it too be fully functional so I can use it with my Galaxy gear.

in settings you can make the background for conversations any image you want and i use solid black. you can not change the conversation view though and i really wish you could.

Yeah I'm looking for the conversation view. I don't know why they would allow you to do one and not the other.

+1 for this feature. Or if anyone knows a AOSP inverted apk that is compatible with note 3.

I just want to get rid of the creepy default face for contacts that don't have a picture!

For those that prefer using the phone's browser over the XDA app

I made a request to get a dark theme added to XDA and was thinking that if enough people showed interest it might get the ball rolling. The purpose behind this is that a dark theme would improve our battery life as I'm sure all of you know how these screens work.
Before the peanut gallery chimes in, I have no interest in using the XDA app.
Well the premium app has a black theme, have you tried that?

Your in luck, this has already been done. I don't have the premium app, but I am using the dark theme. Just go into settings, it is there.
:facepalm
Forget I even said anything
edit: Just so nobody takes the above comment wrong: I DO NOT LIKE USING THE XDA APP. I want to add a dark theme to XDA's UserCP options.
I'm not sure why you would want to request a feature you wouldn't use, but more power too you..
I originally opened this thread because I was curious to know why someone would rather use the web broweser instead of the XDA app. So whats the pro/con?
I wanna a thanks button on this app

Where are you getting the idea that I wouldn't use it?
I just like the browser version better. I have it as a bookmark in my LP dock pop up which takes me directly to general or development. With the Miran browser I have other forums in different tabs so I can go back and forth between them easily. Its harder for me to navigate the app than it is to navigate the browser. Also when people reply using the app, 90% of the time it gets put in the quote box and and looks like and an empty post when in fact the reply is jumbled in with someone else's post (see post #4 as an example). The only benefit the app has to me is that the text is formatted a little better for legibility but that can be fixed in the browser by simply double tapping the page and zooming in.
This is how I'd like it to look like.

I use this awesome app called slide messaging located at the playstore. I only really like the pop up built into it so I really only use it. It's perfect for me because I prefer the touchwiz mms but miss the pop up feature on CM10.1! Check it out you'll be happy

I tried this also, but found it very laggy- especially when using the swiping feature -and not real stable. Maybe there has been some recent updates.

I've been using it for over a month now and I love it. I couldn't stand the stock messaging app. Even with the various theming available, I hated the way it looked. 8sms has been super reliable for me and I like the look of it so much better. I use the dark theme.

It's fantastic. Using it from the first day I got my G2. I send multiple sms as well as mms daily

8sms is good. I personally use textra because I like the looks of the chat windows more.

Text messages failing when using custom themes

I'm making this post for a friend. She has a T-Mobile G2 and apparently when using sending text messages (via stock app) messages fail if the persons message is themed. Deleting Cache and resetting will help for a little while, but eventually will do it again. Text Messages sent without any custom themes are sent fine. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

No, this is for a friend who was having trouble, stock rom, non-rooted. I did a search and didn't find anyone with the same issue, I thought maybe someone on here would know a work around... or anyone know of a good third party messaging app that allows to have individual themes for different people?

Dark Mms Theme

I went to best buy yesterday and noticed the s5 on display had the messaging app with a dark theme! Is there any way to get this on our phones?
If you go to settings and display you can change background for when your in a conversation. But in the overview you can't. You sure it wasn't the Verizon sms app?

if you dont want my rom you can install 8sms from play store.. its better than stock imo

Does 8sms have a quick reply popup? I really like that with chomp sms. And you can customize the look of everything. Mine is totally dark right now.

Unfortunately coming from a galaxy nexus i would like to avoid the stock kit kat messaging app. I've used it for a while an i don't really like it lol. I like the way the stock s5 messaging app looks.
