Ah thanks. Works a charm. Facebook emails bit of a nightmare though, but to be expected. Have you tested with a grey font at all?
Good work. Thanks very much
It's still a WIP... ecsnead is very good at this so we'll hopefully have all the bgs black or yes, we'll use a medium gray text color or even a base blue like they already use on fb and some others.... then it will look good on all of them... keep checking in tho and let us know any issues with the one you have now... I did change the title bar on the main screen to black as well within the app because it points to an android:drawable so the color of it be whatever color your framework uses... mine should overwrite that and only be black....

I can't get either version 4 or 5 to work. The labels are blacked out, however, when I open the actual email it still has a white background and black text. I tried to flash like a theme and also extracted the APK from the zip and manually placed it into the /system folder using root explorer and still nothing. Any suggestions?

Gmail doesn't always come with custom roms, thus it is not always a system/app.... for our gmail you have to move your old gmail to system/app with root explorer... if its in data and you flash it to system, its not gonna work.... also, we mainly theme for d1 and even tho it shouldn't matter, not all apks are gonna be universal from phone to phone..... but try making sure gmail is in system, then flash version 5.....

What facebook widget is that?...that would be great with my apex blue theme!
I'm on the X and it still didn't work. The list of emails is black but when I open the email it has a white background with black text.
So are u saying this app wont work with Droid x? I also tried flashing it with clock works. However I didn't get the full verision of root explorer just yet. I also uninstalled gmail with titanium, flashed it and no luck. I had to redownload gmail from the app market.
I was looking into /data & in /system. I did not find any gmail.apk file.
Any ideas or comments?

In system it is Gmail.apk... in data its like com.android.gm.google or something.... so if it is in data, try moving to to system/app with root explorer, rename it Gmail.apk and reboot.... then flash the zip...
