    Unfortunately, no. There are other apps that use themes like Handcent. However, the stock messaging app is stuck the way it is.

    Personally I like GoSMS as a replacement for the default text messenger. You can change everything about how your conversations look, to how your conversation list looks. It's pretty great. Oh yeah and it's totally free.

    Here's how I have mine set up:

    My gripe with GoSMS is that, for texts sent to multiple people via MMS, sometimes you couldn't tell who a reply was from. I uninstalled it and went back to the stock app.

    Ok don't flame on me, but I really like Verizon messenger. It let's me select background colors and bubble background but is about as simple as stock. And it's the best one I've come across for sending mms. Photos attach in the blink of an eye and never fail to send.

    +2 for handcent.
    Device: Droid Bionic
    Rooted: 5.5.902 - 43V3R root
    ROM!!!: None at the Moment
    PAX(s): None at the Moment
    I had a dream and the dream was a 43v3r rooted Bionic on a ROM!
    For awhile I lived my dream, but then Motorola killed my dream with a locked bootloader.
    I have hope the Google may get Motorola to change their mind, no one else seems to be able to get through to them.
    Maybe it's time to help ourselves!

    I wish all apps on Android were as customizable as Handcent...you can literally make it look like whatever you want.

    + 3 for Handcent. Lots of themes available and easy to customize.
