In the latest nightly (5/15/2013) there is a DarkUI mode that is ROM wide for standard screens, including mms. You now have a choice between that one and mine, which has a few different colors and layouts and modified (slightly) emoji.

Features: (Updated 05/14/2013)
- Black backgrounds
- Cris-cross layout
- White Incoming Text / Holo Blue Outgoing Text
- AOKP Based
- Emoji Icons
- Transparent Widget with white text for dark backgrounds.
- Holo Dark Quick Reply
- Quick Emoji
- Notification Action Buttons: Call Back, Reply, Read (mark read), Delete (you can only pick 3 max) (Thanks JBird!)
- Group MMS
- Toggle soft keyboard enter button function (send, smilies, or carriage return)
- SoftBank emoji encoding (for the Japan users)
- Custom User-Agent (also for Japan users for SoftBank, apparently their system for MMS is different)
- I also fixed the EMOJI graphics that were black. You couldn't see them before and now they are significantly lighter and still look great. This only affects your own display, not the other person you are texting.

This is with Normal Font and Avatar Size (screenshot from 4.1.1 AOKP but MMS looks the same):



This is with Smaller Font and Avatar Size (screenshot from 4.1.1 AOKP but MMS looks the same):



This is what the Quick Reply looks like, it's the same for both styles:

Downloaded. Looks great! The only thing keeping me from the stock Messaging app is that there is no quick reply popup. Seriously, that is the only thing that keeps me on GoSMS Pro.

Love your themed mms man! Mms was sized too small though on my Cspire Showcase so I modified the apk for my carrier..if anyone else has a problem with their mms sizes, just shoot me a pm and I'll send ya the tweaked apk as long as Gaetawoo approves! Thanks for the hardwork you put into this thing!! :D

no because I don't. i just made it this way because it's my most used app by far.

i am only now experimenting with inverted gapps and themes. and i'm not liking any themes, except for UBER and his changes all the icons also which I really don't like, but i love his dialog boxen and notification bar.

the inverted gapps are kind of a mess. people haven't updated calendar to 4.1.1 inverted, and i've found only 1 version of Velvet.apk (which really is named QuickSearchBox.apk in their files, though Velvet is the correct name, i have no idea way, people aren't paying attention i think) that I like (since it uses cards, if EVERYTHING is black, you cant' tell when one ends and one begins, so one smart someone used a dark grey holo background and black cards, instead of black on black.)

there are 3 sources out there for inverted gapps. i don't like any of their mms's so i made my own. but i do like their talk (with some tweaks i'll make) and i do like their contacts (you don't need to replace phone, just fyi)

nobody's play store works with new updates, same for google plus, music. Youtube's are ok.

here they are to play with. I haven't found 1 that is all good.

Also, I prefer a white calendar. and the music and play store apps change too often to both with theming (though with WinMerge it makes it easier). Youtube is ok to theme because it hardly ever changes.

PS: I'll fix the widget eventually. give me some time. I thought things where changed for dark theme but it was only the text colors, not the backgrounds. I'll either make it transparent or black. Likely transparent.
