Hello, I have a problem with my phone for a while, it came to my attention when I was on white images like this forum background, I went to google and I did a little research, I read things like Display Smearing/Ghost but this is not my problem at all, Let me try to explain (my english is not good) its like I can see Messages app (default app on androids to text) I can see it, barely, like the keyboard QWERTY I can see alomost all the letters, I can even see sometimes the SEND button, I dont know if you are understanding what im trying say..
Example : Im on this forum / twitter with a white background and I can see the Messages app , the keyboard letters etc, imagine photshop with a normal image, white background, then you add a text and then you reduce the opacity of the text making it barely visible
Anyone familiar with this problem? It can be solved?
Thanks for your time and sorry for my english.

Hello All,
I am writing in hopes that I can find help or get pointed in the write direction.
I am looking for how to change the background and text colors so they are more easy to read, I am legally blind, so I would like to have the text font be a little bigger then the default big and would like to have the text as write / yellow and the background be black.
I would also like to know how to make the keyboard light stay on when open?
I also would like to know is there a ROM that is made more for using the phone as a VIOP cell over wifi or cell network data?
on more question, how can I make it so my phone does not drain as fast,
I ran into this "problem". I changed my background to a picture and used the bg 4 all utility to have the same background on all manila tabs, but now my backgrounds are also changed in the SMS reading panel 'threaded sms), the contacts screen and maybe some others screens too. Because this text is in black, my changed background makes the text very hard to read and it should be changed to white if possible. Does anyone know if and how you can change the text color?
I searched the forum, but didn't find answers.
same problem
i have also this problem.
i deleted this app.but i love it
help help help
is there anyway to make this problem
Would also like to know if there is any update on this, the other alternative I have posted a thread for is how to have a little more customization over where the background goes, e.g. select to leave default background on contact edit window etc etc.
Hopefully someone can help?

The stocklite CAB allows what we were after, only the manilla tabs get the background, the ones with the white background remain.
I am running it successfully on Dutty V3
I haven't personally tried the background for ALL tabs and apps yet, but this does sound intriguing. I have spent ages playing around with an APP that changes ALL the text, pop-up, bars, scrollbars, title, background etc etc colours, in an attempt to have a completely black background and crisp white text (ie. like TF3D). However... there are limitations to this, and it is VERY hard to achieve a consistant and fuinctional look (since many colours are shared, and quite often you come across a pop-up or menu items that are the same colour).
But... if the APP you mention underlays a black background image in PocketOutlook without actually changing the preset windows colour... this may actually work.
Here's the freeware to tweak colours (UI Tweaker): -

I'm definitely interested to see if anyone else gets somewhere with this?
Hi, i was just wondering if there was a way of changing the look of text messages. Its all fancy when it touchflo showing the last message received, but as soon as i reply or go to all messages, its a horrible white screen and very plan. Anyone got any solutions to this? Thanks.
Hi
Consider upgrading to one of the latest Rhodium/Topaz ROMs where HTC have included this area of Windows Mobile within their customisation and done a reasonable job of hiding our very own Ugly Betty (WinMob 6.1)

the other way around is using a proggie like sktools to change system colors of winmo parts (a bit like righclicking on our win PC desktop/properties/appearance)
just changes colors anyway
Programs that change the system colours seems like a great idea until you start doing it, i too hate the boring messaging colours, i wanted white letters on a black background, but although u can easily change them u soon realise its not workable, changing "window background colour" to black also changes signal bars to black, & it also changes internet pages such as facebook to black, but when u then change text colour to white for messaging it leaves web pages with black type on black ! & notification text would also be black on black, you end up trying different combinations for ages then reverting to standard.
yup thats the crap of it
like in pc windows anyway
Hello everyone, I am an Italian partially sighted, and then I have big problems of view. I note with regret that Android is very configurable, but with more difficulty.
I have a HTC Desire with root privileges.
I would simply like to change most of the interface, not pleasure, but to use it, for example, I have to change anything that has white background with black background and then put white text, here's a list:
- Change backgrounds with blacks and whites to white text (it is called high-contrast)
- Change buttons with clear background and insert new ones with black background and white text
- A little larger all the characters
- Enlarge icons
- Have all black keyboard with white keys
- Have different software with a black background and white text
How do you see there.
I am a programmer and I also know Java and I have the android SDK installed, the only lacks experience in this system since I got two days ago.
I installed without success, Open Home, in the sense that I did not get good results.
Can you help?
I am willing to install something already done or create something from scratch I just do not know where to start, I know that Android is based on the topics of XML, but I do not know where in the system, such as retrieve and re-enter .
Excuse me for my bad english
Thank you all.
Ale
I would be interested in the results that could be achieved by one of the active themers around here, in response to OP's request.
I do not have the difficulties that OP does with his vision, but I think that black everywhere with white text is far more attractive. I'd be especially interested in a mod for the GMail app, Market, People, etc.
I hope someone can help out so the OP can really get some use out of his phone
First I must apologize for:
1 - Poor english: as I "learned" english with video games, music, movies...
2 - I'm totaly "noob". Sorry if the question already exist and/or the post is in the wrong section.
That said:
I'm trying to make a notification widget that look slightly like the Apex Notifier.
Problem is: I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO IT! (Again, sorry!!!!)
To have an idea of what I thought, I have attached a picture that I edited with photoshop by the final concept I want.
The green line will show Whatsapp notifications, the blue one for Facebook Messenger, the white one from SMS, and so on.
Now, I got 2 problems:
1 - I don't know how to create a counter for the apps;
2 - I don't know how to make the line (and later, the notifications) invisible.
I saw a widget some day close to this ideia, some guy created a battery icon and the background change the color depending on the battery charge. I tried to understand the variables he used but it was in vain.
If someone can just explain it ou point me to some tutorial where I can get an idea of how it works, i'd be very grateful. =)
