you can actually have some fun with the Mms apk!

What I did here was open the decompilied Mms apk, the first folder I went to was

out/res/values then i open up the drawables.xml in that xml there are some color codes you can play around with, these are the codes that alot of the other xml's in the apk point to so be careful what you change.

After that I went in the same folder the colors.xml and in there I change the Time stamp color

then on to out/res/layout I opened up the "compose_message_activity.xml"

pretty much the first line is all I messed with since I change the light blue background in the drawables xml to a nice dark gray i decided to go with that here is what I changed it to

 android:background="@drawable/light_blue_background"

then I just messed around a bit more I know its ugly I was just showing you some possibilities!

Anyone have ideas where to find the color change for the settings menus? I can only seem to change the color when it scrolls.

I'm speaking of the screen when you hit menu/settings.
