Gmail, Blacked Out..... Now it's DARK... UPDATED 1/8

Which smali files did you edit to change the text color?

B-boy, that change is either in smali or unchangeble.... I have never been able to find it along with a way to change the button text inside emails... If you find it I will forever look upon you as "THE MAN"!!!!!

Ok ecsnead, I thought I had it!.. I pointed the bg to a full screen bg in drawable and when I hit a message to go to the screen with the white bg, my bg popped up but then it went back to the white one.. ugh!!!!!.. However, I changed the archive and delete text in the bottom buttons to white... had to write it in on that same html_conversation_activity.xml in layout..

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

I added the blue lines of code in and it did change the text color on the buttons.... not sure if that's what you were referring to but here is screen shot of that screen so far...

I really hope this is what you were talking about as far as button text in a message... I'll keep trying the bg tho, I really think it's a non-smali doable thing..... ... I think the normal text color is dark gray like the arrows' color, right?

No, the buttons I am talking about are actually in the message, my buttons are white anyway, due to FW edits I make for my theme...

 

[ecsnead69]

I like your grit, but I hate to tell you, I am 98.9% sure that it is smali code...

 

[B-boy™]

hmm... well I don't know what ya mean then cause those are the only buttons I see...

 

[B-boy™]

Is it in the compose screen with the 'respond inline' button?

 

[Deciple]

Anyone here know?

Is there anyway to get the actual message color black with white text as well? Thanks!

That's what we're kinda working on now... it's not easy at all locating everything that affects that screen and I am smali-tarded so it's like digging a hole with a toothpick for me but if it's possible..... we'll get it.. or someone will at least... lol
