I looked and looked and looked and couldn't find anything on the subject. Is there any way to make the background of Mms.apk semi-transparent? I know I could use Handcent or Chomp, but I am nowhere near fond of them. Thanks for any help!
If I remember right kings unleashed alien over theme has transparent mms. You might be able to talk them about it.

HANDSCENT!
I tried to go back to the the basic mms on my evo. But couldn't keep away from hanscent. Can customize way too much, not a bad thing, but I spend a lot of time tweaking it just right. so i love it now lol
CyanogenMod-6.1 mms.apk here I tried hancent, being picky ... I just dont care for the UI and the widget looks like crap but its a good app just not for me.

Can I just delete the mms.apk that's already installed and install CM's? I remember reading some posts about people having problems with picture messages breaking without the original MMS.apk.
"Went back to HTC MMS to fix MMS download problem." - vaelpak

Help. Please. I'm looking for a black Calender where the background is black instead of white. Something easier on the eyes. I've searched the forums and can't find one. Just wondering if I were to install a different Rom with a black Calender.apk then use root explorer to copy it to my SD card. Then do a restore to my previous Rom and put the black. Calendar. Apk in the system app folder would it work?
Thanks. DizzyFox
That should work, if you flash over to the best of my knowledge. Unless it is a Sense Rom, which depends on other things. As long as the apk is only altered so that the background color is black, you should be fine.

Thanks I'm running ultimate Droid 3.30 any idea what other ASOP rom would have a black calendar?
You're very welcome and I don't. You could look in the apps and themes section. I recall seeing the transparent widget and apps thread. Maybe they have a black version. If not, search Google. I'm sure someone has made it.

If it was transparent would it just be the wallpaper in the background? And is there a transparent notification bar for the epic touch?

can anybody make a grey and green (like the android green)?
Sorry I found the answer, didn't know about changing the view in the app drawer to customizable grid. I pushed the mms.apk through root explorer, rebooted and it worked but it removed the messaging dock icon and I'm only left with 3 dock icons. Any idea how to get it back? TIA

Im currently on the Andromadus Audacity Beta 3 and love the rom so far, but the MMS apk included kinda sticks out. Is there a way to change the colors of the app so I can get a black background and blue or white text to match the ICS style theme, or is there another apk I can flash to replace the one that came built in with the rom?
Found all over google play

I didnt want an add on app though like go sms or handcent. I like the stock one just not the look of it.
Go SMS is your best bet. It has plenty of themes to suit your needs. It even has quick reply, quick text, (and more) something stock doesn't have. It's a nice app.

Do you know if its safe to remove the stock mms app and use go sms as a standalone?
You don't even have to remove the stock one but you can, or if you want in between freeze stock in titanium backup
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium
Removing the stock mms apk will force close go sms. At least this is what I've found on testing when I was making a rom having only go sms.

I always use go SMS and delete the mms apk via titanium backup. There is a feature that allows it to operate with it deleted

If u want to theme the mms app, you have to decompile mms.apk and go into drawable hdpi folder and change around some of the images. For more complex things you can edit the style.xml file in the decompiled mms apk

You can use the Mms apps from ICS. They work just fine on JB. Check out the ones I have themed in THIS THREAD.
