sms theme - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Is there any way to make stock sms look like this (or similar) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1375255 (pic on the right) ?

.... .... .... ?

I would like to second this.

This is great except the number of texts per person is still shown in black making it invisible.

Not bad, but not what I was asking. I'd like the bubbles without using any other app. Like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1375255 Not just inverted colors.

give it time. Things get fixed faster if you post in the threads.

The incoherent design of ICS -especially between the contact- and sms-ui and the rest of ICS- is one reason that hesitates me to buy the galaxy nexus. Hm as my previous speaker already mentioned: ICS is just one month out. Im confident that with the next major update the problem will be solved itself. Until then you can use gosms with ICS theme from the market.

Better-than-stock Dialer?

Hi all,
I'm looking for a dialer apo to replace the stock dialer, since the Samsung stock one doesn't even have a proper T9 dialing option.
I have tried ExDialer, and it's really good but it doesn't show Facebook profile pics in the dialer.
Does anyone know of any better dialer apps that are fast and functional?
Thanks.

Few things that come to mind:
- Dialer One
- RocketDial
- Go Contacts
- Touchpal Contacts
Let us know how you get on.
Dev Team
im currently using dev team stuff such as:
go sms
go contacts
go keyboard
go dialer
im pretty much using the same thing as you but if you install AOKP rom, it should fix your problem with the face book contacts thing as its part of the features for the rom
let me know how you go
Ex Dialer is awesome now
Dialer ONE it's my favorite
Dialer one for sure.....

Thanks guys for the replies, but I tried each one of them and NONE can pull FB pics into the dialer!
They're there in the contacts and even in the stock dialer but they simply don't show up in any of these custom apps! Other pics like google pics etc show up though....
Does it work for you? Am I doing something wrong here?
Am using hax sync. It works fine and fb pics show up on exdialer.

Ok.
How does hax sync integrate with the stock contacts? Is there another tab for it like Facebook and whatsapp or does it just sync the photos within the fb account?

Its just like another fb or whatsapp account. It also syncs high res images which is nice and in the options you can choose to have htc style notes on your google account contacts so that when you do a full wipe and re sync it remembers the linked contacts.

ex dialer
I have used almost all the available dialers and to date found the Ex dialer to be the most user friedly one with good themes as well. Its a matter of personal preference too. For someone like me the main thing is not to have to stretch my thumb to the top of the screen to press buttons specially in S3 which is bigger. All the relevent common buttons are in the lower field. Even the search button of the contacts in ex. Go dialer is also very good but for me cannot beat the Ex dialer.
If helpful ...press thanks
I believe u should go for....
- go dialer
- ex dialer
These are the best options....

Thanks for the explanation. Since it's a paid app, I just wanted to confirm.
So this app syncs phone numbers and other details too? After installing this can I completely disable the normal Facebook sync app?

I don't think it syncs contact numbers. Only pictures. For me, thats what was important as I have telephone numbers on my Google contact list for most of my fb contacts. And it syncs status updates as well. So if you click on a contacts update in hax sync it takes you directly to the contacts page on the facebook app in your phone. I have disabled contact sync on my fb phone app.

[REQUEST] Emoji integration in Messeges app

Hello,
I am wondering if someone with the skills to do do, could cook up a mod to include emoji/ emoticons into the messeges app? It's that one MIUI feature I've always missed. It's also really annoying when iPhone people send emojis and they turn out like this: ¤⊙℃.
If anything has any interest in seeing something like this worked on, like this post! Maybe someone will get inspired.
Thanks

I just installed textra yesterday as a replacement messaging app and it nicely incorporates emoji and works well with iPhones as well. The emojis show up correctly whether sending or receiving.

Textra is such a nice and lightweight app, with individual notification settings, emoji and reply from notification panel (it opens up a small popup rather than the whole app). It's running SMOOTH on my One.

Not that I know of...I've decompiled the phone and contacts and its much more complicated then aosp that I'm use to.
I can't even find an older lg dialer that's been inverted to try and compare.

you can try team blackout here on xda and I think they have there own website. I think they have inverted apks and just maybe you can ask them to theme the OGP. I know they have a dark dialer and contact already but since I'm not rooted I did look very deep into it. but team blackout might be a good place to start.

Yeah that is a nice looking dialer. I dont see anything wrong with wanting to cutomize your phone to look like what you want it to. And I certainly dont think taking characteristics from other apps or phones that interest you is a downgrade. However I dont know of any way to make quite the look your trying to achieve.
Ofcourse customizations might not matter to some but then if they dont why would they be here? After all this is a forum totally built around customizing your phone isn't it? Twas a bit rude to call it a downgrade and tell you to go packing and perhaps that started a downward spiral in this thread. Still the black dialer app was an attempt.
Alright, thread moved and cleaned:
1.- The subject of the thread it's customization I don't know why some of you are discussing about which phone is better
2.- Swearing it's forbidden by the rules
3.- If some user don't have nothing helpful to add then don't answer, if you think that something it's wrong just report it
4.- Be respectful
5.- Here is a link to the rules, all of you read it definitely it's necessary: http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?a=81
i come to respect this thread. the OP posted a good question. but some trolls here wrecked this thread up by posting stupid remarks. then when the OP defends himself, the mod further messed up the thread by cleaning up the essential posts. all you trolls need to stop trolling this nonsense.
i ask that the mod monitor this thread and be fair.

Facebook 4.3 Transparent 8/5

I know it just updated 8/5, it takes 3 days to do. Test this one in the mean time. The update is nothing big.
You most read post 2
This is a work in progress
No *****ing
Because this one includes Google maps, it can't be signed for now. That means it can't be installed normally in data/app. It most be in system app.
You most be rooted to have it fully work
The app is about 90%.
This app works on my note 2 running tw and cm, no clue if it works on other devices
Also on my Nexus 7
Know issues
1. Chat screen is grey, I'm working on it
2. A couple pop ups are white BG
3. Near by places list won't show on tablet till you tap the icon in the bottom left corner of the map
Install
1. Completely uninstall your current one
2. Download new zip
3. Flash in recovery.
Download flash to system
http://db.tt/kLMrhmWv
Or
Download the signed version
Install like normal, you won't have the map.
Use TBO to convert to a system app
Maps should work now
Signed version to be converted by you

Overall, very good. Especially the main part, the News Feed. Maps worked fine for me. The white border around pics was already mentioned. The events and friends menus on the left show a lot of white when clicked on. Perhaps that can be improved upon. Regardless, for me, the modded app stays installed. Great work.

Looking good :good:
I also like the black background, although the yellow text is not my favorite color.
Can you please post a screenshot of the Google user selection if you have more than one Google account?
I'm using MyLifeRocks10's Inverted Multi DPI Play Store ATM, and the second Google user name is white in the selection.
That's why I'm asking for this ... just curious if it's black in your Play store version.
