[Q] Any easy way to change notification color on Messages icon? - Desire Themes and Apps

I'm using a pink/purple wallpaper and I want to change the notification number on the Messages and Mail apps from green to pink. The number that shows up on the icon to tell you how many unread messages/emails you have. Is there an easy way to do this without changing the entire theme?

Notification blinking green

Hi, I searched the threads and google and saw that someone asked if they could change the flashing green light for a text, email, etc...to like purple or red or any other color. Is there a way to do this? For AIM i changed incoming messages to blink purple, but how about for sms, email, etc... thanks!
you can either download chompsms in the market and change ur sms LED settings there (note that the led change will work only for chompsms)
or
download missed call and change your sms LED settings there.
For SMS messages, you can also download the latest apk mod from rgv151
For more info, check out this thread.

As far as I'm aware there's no way to make the standard notification colour change, but there are lots of apps out there that allow to switch off the standard notifications and replace them with an app-based notification of your choice.
For example, SMSPopup and Missed call allow you to replace the LED colour to one of your choice (from pre-defined colours) as well as change the frequency of the flashes, and also the type of vibration (e.g. long vibrations, short vibrations or combinations thereof)
I recommend SMSPopup as it will also wake up your screen and display the text message, like the majority of phones do as standard.
thanks for the info.

Change the color of bubble message

How do you change the color or the bubble message when your reading old text message?
i'd like to know this too, but if you hit settings at the main thread menu then you can change the ringtone for messages.
You would probably have to root the phone to change the bubble colors. You can use Handscent that allows for customization of the bubble colors.

Is there a way to do this?

[Q] Stock email program and background color

Is there a way to change the stock email program (the list of message part - not the messages themselves as those are fine) from white text on a black background to either the reverse, or some other color combination? I'm finding that, depending on the lighting, it is rather difficult to easily identify read messages from unread messages. If there is no way to change the color combo, perhaps there is a better way to highlight unread messages? Thanks....

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
From what I can remember, you can change the white background to a yellow-ish background to make it easier to read. Not sure about white on black though.
The white to yellow background is only if you are reading a specific email. There is no way I can find to change the colors of the list of emails. You'll have to probably wait for custom ROM, unless rooting can provide a workaround. I know there are other email apps floating around for other Galaxy devices, but I haven't messed with my Fascinate yet because I'm waiting for a sure fire backup/restore method.
