Anyone know how to add or change the picture icon in the messages application? My contact's pictures show fine but the "me" picture doesn't show anything...
Hi!
You can edit your details in the People application.
Annoying that it doesn't pick up your photo from Google. Well that isn't strictly true, when I look in my contacts it has an entry for me which shows my google photo but it doesn't use it for "me"
Did anyone find a fix for this?
Running CM7
Thanks,
Hi all, when using stock email application and viewing the list of emails, it is black on white text. I'd like to reverse it to white on black text. Anyone have any idea how to do that?
My phone is rooted if that makes a difference.
hi can anyone help w/ this?
I'd really like to know this as well. I saw that you can change the background color for messaging and the GMail background is white but can you do the same thing for the stock email client?

I'm wondering the same thing. I know for a fact that it started off White background/Black text. But since rooting the device, this color scheme has reversed. I'd like to get it back.

I had this same problem just yesterday. My S3 email app has always been white background with black text until I rooted my phone and installed a custom rom a few days ago, my email app was then black background with white text, very aggravating.
There are a few things you can do first that many suggest but for me these did absolutely nothing. This was to first see if there were any settings in the email app itself (which there isn't), then to try inverting your colors somewhere in your android settings (not a solution obviousely), and last was unchecking the option under power saving mode settings that allows the phone to change background color to save battery which actually worked for some, but not for me.
:good: I did fixed the problem however and I think this may help those who tried everthing else above. The problem is simple and lies in a short CSC line of code.
If your phone is rooted and have superuser you can use a program like "ES File Explorer" with superuser permission to browse the files on your phone. Simply navagate to the root of your phone then go to "system" folder, then to "csc" folder, then open the "feature.xml" file using a text editor with superuser access. (ROOT/SYSTEM/CSC/feature.xml)
Down close to the bottom of text in the "feature.xml" file you will see this:
<!-- Email -->
<CscFeature_Email_UseFixedBgColorAsWhite>false
</CscFeature_Email_UseFixedBgColorAsWhite>
If this is the case you found out why your email app is black. Simply change the text "false" to "true". Save the file, and your done.
I actually closed my email app, cleared cache, cleared data, then I edited the text and saved. So I would recomend doing that first but you would have to re enter your email account info so it may work without clearing the data of your email app.
Hope this helps those who tried other means like changing settings.
Is there any idea how to change stock email dark background to white one, as G- MAIL has? Assume the reason is battery saving, in spite of that I would appreciate your clue.
Cheers, Majjjjo
Nope
Sorry, haven't got a clue.
But your question has answered one of my worries regarding the phone as I am still waiting for it.
Thanks for sharing, I won't be using the solution someone more informed hopefully posts.
Cheers mate.
Thanks mate. In any case for me it is immensely important as approx. 150-175 emails everyday in my box. Most of them have to be replied and dark background doesnt looks convenient. If no chance with any ROM flash, I come back to TouchDown that I purchased long ago and works fine (just doestn show number of emails in its own icon/shortcut)
Ciao all.
How to change background color
For general e-mail, if you are running ice cream sandwich, you should be able to change the text color and background color by simply clicking on the menu button. There should be a background color and font color. I was wondering, I updated to the nowipe VRBLK1, and I can no longer change the background color for my email. Did they take this feature out?
Hi,
I started recently making my own themes as i found there isn't enough themes in my taste on themer/mycolorscreen application/launcher.
I have on question though. how do i change the text for unread email? It is connected to my gmail, ut even checking another box in the mail options i have no luck so far. So help me get an answer please. I watched all videos but i might have missed it somehow. (see screenshot for explaination (and yes i made it all red because I am not ready to share my work with the world just yet))
Love this launcher!
greetings mcwurth
Changing unread email count from gmail to other email
As far as I'm aware, this CAN'T BE DONE! It's a limitation of Android, not Themer. Android links itself to your gmail account, and it will only report unread emails in that account, not any other. The two ways around this are:
(a) forward all your non-gmail messages to your gmail account by adding your hotmail/yahoo/whatever account to gmail (you can do this within gmail on your phone, or from your PC). This is the 'elegant' solution but it does mean that ALL your emails will be a the mercy of Google
or
(b) as you're building your own theme, just find the simplest widget you can for yahoo/hotmail/whoever, put the widget on your homescreen and use some clever masking (such as allow overlapping widgets??) to display only the numeric character. Not sure how you'd go about changing the font size.
You might want to look at Tesla Unread which displays unread emails on little badge icons, or browse xda's main Android forums for info on email count widgets.
BTW, I'm no expert so please don't ask me anything technical - I've just researched this problem before and I remember some of the replies I got from clever people.

Not exactly what i mean. this must be a limitation by themer as the word personal comes directly when i add "missed email". it simply says personal. even when changing the inbox/outbox/whateverbox of my gmail to anything else then the personal one it will not change the text and i can not change it elsewhere. i feel this is a themer issue and not from gmail as i can recall that with other themes it says email/ missed email

Hi mcwurth,
That's Themer Everything Widget right? When you add the Email item, it shows Personal by default. To remove it:
1. Select the Unread Email item (that one you added).
2. Tap the "Unread E-mails Style" option at the bottom - Select Unread E-mail Settings.
3. Scroll to the bottom - Deselect Show Label.
Alternatively you can use Themer Zooper Widget, which allows for much more flexibility. Hope this helps!

AAAAAAAHHHHHH thank you so much! this helped LOADS! appreciate the fast response!
Hello,
I was wondering if it possible to display unread counts from two or more gmail accounts at the same time, either in the same widget or in multiple widgets. I know I can go into settings and manually switch between accounts, but I would prefer to not have to do it that way.
Thank you,
Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,
We picked up a bug on this end, hopefully it can get sorted soon.
Using Zooper Widget (not Themer Zooper Widget) if you create/edit a module, and replace the text with #SUG1#, it will display your inbox for your second account. As it doesn't work with Themer ZW, we'll contact the dev team to sort this out as soon as possible. If you need any help let us know.
