Has anyone repacked the Email.apk with the Gingerbread icons? I checked around and didn't see that anyone had yet.
I installed the 2.3.4 email.apk. It's floating around in an xda thread and it will have the GB style status icons.

Thanks. I'll have a look at that.
Didn't like that email client. I finally had some time and ended up repacking it with the GB icons myself.

So running the beta and all is great. However they decided to include the fascinate style mms.apk. I personally find the "bubble" messaging to be aweful.
Anyone that could port the 2.1 styled mms.apk to 2.2 ?

I 100% agree. I am not digging this new style at all.
Glad someone agrees with me. It looks so childish in my opinion.

Absolutely. You can take the mms.apk out of the froyo zip and put in the original one if you want, that works.

I didn't try putting it in the zip and flashing. But when I removed mms.apk and cleared dalvik/cache then pushed the Mms.apk from 2.1; however it force closed on tapping on any message/settings, etc. It did open though
Have you done this thomas? If so can you provide the Mms.apk you used?

I haven't actually done it myself, but I don't see why it wouldn't work to put it in the system/app folder of the .zip. pushing is bound to cause fc errors. Try flashing the attached .zip, it won't touch anything other than replacing the mms.apk with the 2.1 version.

Giving it a try now. Will edit with results.
And thank you Thomas. I really should get around to learning how to make flashables lol. Is there a tutorial somewhere?
EDIT:
As before. The Subtext on the Messages/Compose new message turns the orange color, but tapping ANY of them causes a FC. It must be a problem with the TW3 framework vs. the old 2.5 crap.
Try using the handcent text message app?
You can make it look like 2.1 version

I have tried handcent but personally I don't like the interface at all. I guess ill just deal with the bubbles for the time being.

Here is one that works. I Kanged it from CM6. Flash through clockwork. And YES you can change the background to black. Change it in the MMS settings
http://www.4shared.com/file/QW0Hs2rE/AOSP_FROYO_Mms.html
For those of you who want the AOSP MMS app then push this file to /system/app and you should have stock style CM6 MMS with the MMS notification in the TW lockscreen. This MMS apk is from CM6 modified to work with TW lockscreen from this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=829273
All credit goes to "untermensch"
Thank you for that. Muuuch better.

You could look at WP7 theme (link in my sig). The bubles are colored there. It might give you the clues you need.

They were in the Theme sub forum I believe. Try searching for Impaler747 and transparent messaging.

In his sig are all the tutorials to learn how to do it yourself. He said it is easy. I think it is xml editing and knowing the hex code for colors if I remember what he was trying to tell me.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Here's a simple way.
1.) Download a theme for EC05 with a messaging app you like.
2.) Open it in 7zip or winrar(do not unzip)
3.) Delete all folders(if any) in the root of the zip except for system and META-INF.
4.) In the system folder delete all folders except app.
5.) Inside the system/app folder, delete everything except MMS apk.
6.) Back out of the zip
7.) Copy to SD, and flash through CWM
Follow that for any system/app.
Here's a video from qbking77 on the subject:

If you switch to a Gingerbread Rom, here's the link to the new Transparent Themed Messaging apks. Froyo version won't work.

Good. Grab those tutorials I mentioned in Impaler's sig. Then you can start themeing lots of stuff. The only drawback to themeing non-system apps is they won't update, so keep that in mind if you theme an app that gets frequent updates.
Also Shane's themes often pack them seperately. Check Honeycomb Fusion explosion. It's my fav and the mms theme is very cool.
Glad you got it going. If you don't mind me asking, which MMS did you choose?

Anybody have the stock image icons for the Phone, Contacts, and Messaging apps that they can provide? Most themes alter them when theming the apps and the altered icons don't look as good. :/ What I'd like to do is switch them back to stock after the theme themes them to have the apps themed with the original icons. Any help is appreciated.
the screenshot shows which ones I'm looking for circled.
You can rip the icons from the stock rom. do u know how to do basic theming? You can use ninija morph.

I'm a fan of shiftr182's theme (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427830).
Also ran Overstew's very happily for quite a while: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1322272.
Another very popular one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1404267
There are plenty of others that are ICS-inspired -- go cruising through the themes section, nandroid, and flash until you find the right one for you.

>.< Your sarcasm is not appreciated.
Swag -- actually, I've had great luck w/ shiftr's "1.1b" version on top of Calk's 2.8.1. All of the TSM mod lockscreens seem to work great (outside of some issues that I think are due to me running screen density of 160 :/) Flashed after running overstew's ics theme for weeks and haven't gone back...

there are some 3rd party apps that can use for a custom status bar like statusbar + or something like that, but you cant tweak the existing one w/o root
