    Default Text Theme?

    I was looking around yesterday trying figure out a way to change the Text backround. I changed a few files, but nothing happened..? Has anyone figured this out? Ive changed virtually everything on my phone except the stock ugly text backround...

    K ill try.. i dont mean the bubbles. Like the actual backround while your texting. How would i change that from the blueish it is to something else? And is there a way to change the Texting font color?

    Hello, I believe if you created an image 320x480 and save it as SMSBackground.png to your main theme folder this should be the fix.

    Under your theme folder you copy over any .png file you want and then rename it SMSBackground.png. This will be placed in the same area as your dock, statusbar, and wallpaper png files. Hope that helps.

    LOL, its cool. I was a noob only a mere two weeks ago. Once I found this website and did a little trial and error, I figured out a boat load of stuff thanks to the info available here. This is the most helpful website I've ever seen.
