Theming Mms.apk
  • rachelm920rachelm920 August 2011

    I pulled Mms.apk off of my phone, edited some images and .xml files but for some reason all my incoming texts still have the default background!!


    Anyhow I was wondering what I was missing... I edited all of the colors in color.xml. I put a screen print below. Let me know if you need anything else to assist...

    Thanks superstar! I'll pull it apart. I'm not much of a themer but maybe something will stand out. Great job by the way :-)

    I might be way off but may this be the issue?

    /res/values/drawables.xml:
        <item type="drawable" name="softgrey_background">#ff181818</item>
        <item type="drawable" name="lightgrey_background">#ff2f2f2f</item>

    Try this @ngiordano:

    /res/values/drawables.xml:
        <item type="drawable" name="softgrey_background">#ff2f2f2f</item>
        <item type="drawable" name="lightgrey_background">#ff2f2f2f</item>

    looking to change it from gray though

  • ngiordanongiordano August 2011

    @rachelm920 those are the values you're looking for. Change those to your desired color :-)

  • DJGHOSTS3V3NDJGHOSTS3V3N August 2011

    #ff181818 Is gray, which is when she recieves a message

    #ff2f2f2f is purple, which is when she sends a message.

    Change them both to the same color and you got a good theme.
