ICS introduced a new contact app, the People App.
It is a very nice app, but there is one thing that I hate about it.
The white backgroung color!
Why white while most of the rest UI are black?
So, is there anyone who can change it? Probably with root ...
I remember there is that Facebook black or something. I assume it can also be done with this People App ...
The Nexus can be rooted (see MoDaCo for howto). Go do that and upload the people.apk file here, I'll see if I can help.
Please do this for Galaxy S2....
When I go into contacts, mine is already black background,this is contacts, not people though.

dialer app (phone icon) has black bgr
contact app (vcard icon) has white bgr
would be nice for both to be black.. looks much nicer
Wrong thread
yes...would be nice to have it black, with white writing... just as the contact in the phone apk...i could change the background, the problem is to change the xml responsible of the white writing...

Hi all, I am running CM 10.1 (4.2.1) with Nova Launcher. I was wondering is there a way to change the lock screen background? instead of it showing my desktop wallpaper.
Thanks!
I don't think so..
I can on AOKP with that enabled (self promotion) like mine seriously though, some have it just have to dig around

Am i the only one who notices the bad transition lag from pressing app drawer while viewing blinkfeed? It happens when you install transparent app drawer. It happening now that I installed Dark Theme. I know someone else has to notice this, i've seen it do this on multiple phones, its very obvious when pressing app drawer and viewing blinkfeed with transparent app drawer installed.
--This is not a Dark Theme specific Issue this is a Transparent app drawer issue. I am 100% certain this is an issue and not just my specific phone, i've seen 3 different phones do this with the same scenario. And after removing transparent app drawer it corrects itself.
It may be in how app drawer was achieved, i have had trans app drawer since i rooted the htc one on sprint(and on the htc lte sense 5 port) and i have no lag when going from blinkfeed to app drawer and back

I second that ... No lag at all , make sure you're using the right tools and that the setup of them is good
I also notice that laggyness when using a Theme with transparent app drawer. (using TrickDroid)
Wanted to know if there is or if somebody can make/modify a stock MMS apk that supports all 876 unicode emoji characters. I running the latest NoWizAOSPMod and it has the stock MMS but it only supports about 471 natively.

Yeah. I know it sounds like a lot but its only half when compared to all the ones that IOS & Hangouts can use/see.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
its actually already in the system
download kii keyboard and install the emoji support from settings and then hold the 123 button bottom left corner and go the smiles button and there you go emojis they also work for facebook and instagram and others apps ... has swype feature to enable it if not already..:good:
this is awesome!
is there a way I can theme it in dark?
You can try this, it will replace the Samsung Messenger with the aosp mms themed dark with bubbles, with working group messaging and emojis. Works great when messing people with iPhones

This will also erase all your current texts so make a back up if you care.

The color bubbles on this are horrid. Lol But it works nicely. I wish there were just white and grey convo bubbles or something.

Haha yeah, when I get home I'll change that and upload it. It's not a hard thing to change, two images and then probably the text color.
What color do you want the text and bubbles?

this is just the app, won't erase anything but will only work if you still have the previously uploaded one, with the 'bad' colors. This is the same background, just changed the received bubble to grey and the sent to white and the text to black for the messages.

no problem! If you ever want to change the colors or anything it is fairly simple, use an apktool found all over on xda, along with guides to use them, the framework to use would be the one in the first zip, after the mms.apk is decompiled, the bubbles are /res/drawable-xhdpi/ hairline_left.9.png and hairline_right.9.png. The one pixel black lines and dots on the outside edges of the images are where the image expands and stuff, so make sure they stay there or you'll get errors when compiling. I use paint.net to edit them. For the text color, the hex values are found in a few places, like /res/values/colors.xml and /res/layout/message_list_item_recv.xml, and send. It just takes some time playing around with the stuff to get it to look how you want.

Thank you sir. I did mess with doing some of this a while back. Changed my clocks to black etc on my evo and evo 3d. But my laptop took a dump at Xmas and I just never repaired it. :/
That being said, I had bad issues sending mms. They would constantly hang or not send even after waiting like 30 plus minutes. I had this happen trying a ROM running aosp mms app as well. Maybe it's just my phone. But thank you so much.

If you use Google voice, that may have a negative affect. I had to disable it and then get the lite version that just handles voice mail enabled to fix my mms and emoji issues

I'm on 4.4 (CM-REMIX-Burst-Kernel-KANG) and looking to get rid of the google search bar on the home screen.
I appreciate the only way to do this is to get another Launcher. Is there a lightweight launcher that would remove the google search bar?
Thanks
Try holo launcher
