"Welcome to the Dark Side"

Team Black Out is made up of some of the best of the best in the industry when it comes to making Blacked Out Apps and Transparent Apps. We decided to team up and release the largest list of Blacked Out Apps available and add to it as often as possible. Our goal is to offer an ongoing list of apps that are updated as soon as possible after the stock app updates by letting just 1 person update it rather than 3-10 of us doing our own thing and ultimately ending up with the same end result.. an Inverted app. So, by doing this, we will be able to branch out and get the list to over 100 apps in time! Many of us have been doing this for over 3 years and some have just began their journey to the Dark Side but we are a team and will work together like a team. The veterans will help train the new-comers how to start from scratch and fully Black Out an app by editing xml lines, drawable images and smali classes files. On the site, we have guides available and will add more of them in time. We announce the Team over a month ago and now the day is here!

T-BOTs are the Team Black Out Testers. When we update an app or start a new one from scratch, we can put anywhere from 20 minutes to 10 hours into 1 app for all of you and then testing that app can take 10-60 minutes and we don't use every app we Black Out so we're bound to miss some hidden things. Well, this is where our Loyal T-BOTs come into play. Once we update an app they get busy looking for issues for us. This gives us more time to be able to update more apps, start new apps or just have some non-android fun. So make sure you thank the T-BOTs when you get blown away from how amazing these apps are!
Obviously this style is the most popular. We don't theme our apps with images but rather Invert the Colors so you'll;ll have Dark backgrounds and Light texts. This is very popular and has become something that many avid Android users have come to thoroughly enjoy this look so we will do our best to give you more of what you love!
Transparent apps have become more popular the last year or so and some members of the Team have been offering them for a while now. Our transparent series of app are called Clear Apps. Being able to see your wallpaper while you';re using your favorite apps is just cool! We still have to update the site with all of our Clear Apps...
Ok kids... click on "Welcome to the Dark Side" at the top and it will take you to our official Team Black Out website! All downloads are hosted there only to keep track of everything. If you've used any of our apps in the past in your Aroma installers or in your ROM, you can still use them. Link back to our SITE wherever you post our content tho. Do not post something in a different forum using our work and then PM us to let us know and hope it's ok with us.... It isn't. Ask first and we'll work with you but ask for forgiveness and we have a problem.

Just saying you should learn what you're doing. Not everyone is going to cater to what you know and you can ruin your phone just trying stuff. I'm not your mom or anything though. I don't have to take care of your phone. I know what I'm doing.

I'm asking this because I thought it might be kinda fun:
What's one (app/game/file/tweak/inverted version of something/whatever) that you have tucked away in a dropbox folder, or on an old sdcard/device that you think most XDA users wouldn't have, or wouldn't even know about?
(That you'd be willing to share, of course)
For example, when cleaning up my dropbox yesterday, I came across this old thing:
http://db.tt/1j1em9yL
edit: link fixed.
, which is actually really nice...
(It's a beta of a megavideo viewer app that was free on the market for exactly 2 days before Google yanked it for whatever reason:
You just drop a megavideo link into the box, and it plays the vid without messing with all the annoying popups/multiple windows that usually arise when trying to do so through a browser. That app ^ used in combination with a site like quicksilverscreen.com or icefilms can be invaluable when trying to stream new movies and such....)
But I digress...
What's the one old 'somethin-somethin' that y'all have just lying around?
edit:
Protip: just go to your Dropbox and search for 'apk':
The first time I tried this, I realized that I have 335 apps just chillin up there: time to seriously clean it up.

Yea.. I think they have a paid app that allows unltd skips and no ads.. So if your posting something modded that allows those features then it becomes a whole different ball game when Pandora isnt making any money off of it. Just my opinion if I have an awesome app im willing to support the devs and pay for it.. Then again if it wasnt for Warez I probaby wouldnt have purchased the apks I have if I didnt test them out first
MOD EDIT: offering warez
the way i read it, was that when shazam updated, all people who had the unlimited were able to keep it even after updating. maybe im wrong, but this would totally make it un-warez. warez based on time of download is bogus...
beware !!!!
andy-86 calculator freezes our phones completely when u open it.

HELLO XDA! Time for a new theme
This time around, I decided to take a hack on the NEW Google Play Store UI. I introduce to you....

INVERTED
The main idea about this theme is to capture the new Google look. You got your cloud storage banner in the middle, with your top 3 favorite apps on the bottom, recommended for YOU.
I am taking REQUESTS for different cloud option banners.
If you don't use Dropbox, I'll put in Google drive. If not Google drive, I'll make a BOX one. If you use NO cloud storage, I can simply make you a huge app banner with your favorite app.
I am possibly thinking about taking requests for the Recommended For You options.
TUTORIAL VIDEO BELOW! CHECK IT OUT!
Dropbox Files with PSD -
http://db.tt/oT7KncYB
This is how requests should be
TOP- *application name*
Cloud Banner-*application or cloud storage name*
RFM Banners- *application name*
For the cloud banner, tell me if you want a star rating, company name, and install button! I can do that for you to give you the google play store look.
Time to get back to work!
Bigger requests will be pushed back to the end of my list! Little ones first, and then I will get to your complicated ones, but no worries, it will get done. Just give me TIME.

~ALL top banner requests from now on will have Roboto light font
~No more shadows on RFM banners now!*
~Recommended for You is now italics to match real play store
~Building up a folder full on individual .pngs that people can pick from, ranging from top banners, middle, and RFM banners.
Changlog - 4/15
~Inverted NOW AVAILABLE
~All Recommended for You banners went through a few fixes (stars should now all be aligned)
~More files added to .png folder (which will be available to everyone at a later date)
Will this have buzzlauncher support?
-No, not yet at least. Buzz launcher is a cool launcher, but I believe it is to early of a launcher to start building to.
This looks so sweet!!

No problem! Remember, I am only taking requests for the cloud banner AT THE MOMENT. I may or may not do the recommended apps section. But just in case, put in your requests for whatever you please, the more it is, the longer it may take but it will get done. Atleast I think so haha!

any chance of an inverted stock messaging app?
Very sick mate, thanks
Weird. I was able to flash the hangouts app in AOKP and it worked fine. I just switched to PA today, and when I flash the same zip, hangouts isn't blacked out.
Edit:
Well in case anyone else runs into it, I found that (at least with PA) after flashing I had 2 system apps, one named Hangout.apk (the black out one) and one named Talk.apk. I deleted Talk.apk and renamed Hangout.apk to Talk.apk, and everything worked fine.

Deleting talk.apk should have been fine and keeping hangout.apk the same name. Just so if we update you can just flash it on top instead of renaming it every time.

Obviously this style is the most popular. We don't theme our apps with images but rather Invert the Colors so you'll;ll have Dark backgrounds and Light texts. This is very popular and has become something that many avid Android users have come to thoroughly enjoy this look so we will do our best to give you more of what you love!
Transparent apps have become more popular the last year or so and some members of the Team have been offering them for a while now. Our transparent series of app are called Clear Apps. Being able to see your wallpaper while you';re using your favorite apps is just cool! We still have to update the site with all of our Clear Apps...
Ok kids... click on "Welcome to the Dark Side" at the top and it will take you to our official Team Black Out website! All downloads are hosted there only to keep track of everything. If you've used any of our apps in the past in your Aroma installers or in your ROM, you can still use them. Link back to our SITE wherever you post our content tho. Do not post something in a different forum using our work and then PM us to let us know and hope it's ok with us.... It isn't. Ask first and we'll work with you but ask for forgiveness and we have a problem.

Thank you. These will go nicely when I'm not running my full trans. I used to invert every app I could back in droid 2 days. Lol You've done all the work for us and I know how time consuming it is. Special shout out to you and your team
Btw. Lol Guess I'm still considered a "Kid" at 41. I'll take that as a formal compliment. Lol peace

Thanks

No you will have to wait until they update the app on the site usually within a day or two. Facebook will take the longest to get updated

Confirmed working on the m919 tmobile. The new icon view is a little ugly since if the people you email don't have pictures, it just shows up as letters. Thanks for the apk!
problem!
because I get this message when trying to install the new version of gmail?

Try to download again. If it still doesn't work, download on computer and transfer to sd card, then install.

Are you kidding!?!? Totally wasteful of space, has a bunch of random colours screaming out of the LHS with irrelevant letters in boxes "oooooh!" (yes I know they "represent" the sender's initial but they DON'T add value. It's utterly hidious. Thank God for Titanium Backup.

Ah..... the one place I didn't look, thank you, thank you, thank you!
Have to say, the settings have become a bit facebook-esque though, too spread around I think - that's three or is it four sets in the app.

Well you can always change it back in the settings lol but I'm really digging it, I get 20 to 50 emails per day so it's useful having the letters in boxes I can get to the important emails faster.

Use your file explorer pick the pdf file and goto share and attach to the Gmail. For some reason inside Gmail it doesn't have attachments for files....

Installed straight from phone through Dropbox working 100%. Thanks For the link:good:
I don't get any gmail notifications now. I get the emails, but it doesn't tell me. :S
Minor improvements, but looks great!
Nice! Thanks for the update!
Wasn't really sure what was new besides the obvious coloured "letter labels", so I looked it up.
- New navigation bar
- Swipe down to refresh inbox
- Delete/ Archive/ Mark Unread Bar has been moved to the top of the app’s screen
- One-tap Empty Trash and Spam folders
- New categories for better access and control over all your incoming e-mails.
