This Will give you a black background to facebook with white text. Also gave it some color menus and better icons. Hope you enjoy
I modded and ported some of this with help from JsChiSurf.
This app is fully functinal and ready to use. I included a couple of differnt app types. The first is a signed flashable version, the second is the installable app (put on sd and install like a 3rd party app)(Hasent been tested yet so hopefully it works), the third is a tar file for those [phones who have to have it in that form to work correctly.

Please let me know what you think and if you ahve any questions
Thanks for this, would look sweet on the X10 black!!!
However...
Getting the 'Facebook cannot be installed on this phone' error.
Maybe because it doesn't like to overwrite the one installed on the phone as that is a system app (apparently )
We have root though, so maybe when that is available to all we can uninstall the 'system' version and replace with this.
Or maybe we can change the package name so it doesn't try to overwrite facebook, but instead install facebookblack instead
EDIT: I can make this change tonight and test on my phone, rather than wasting your time trying it
EDIT2: Sorry, after reading that last edit, I can see it sounds terribly ungrateful. It is not meant like that. What I mean is that rather than you trying to fix something that I am assuming you can't test (and is probably not useful for most of the android community), I can make the change and test.
Is this the default face book application?
Latest version is 1.2 can you put some version history?
Ok how do we make this work since theres not root..... or do we have to waot....

Yes I use your package and resigned the application still it dosent install on X10
Im guessing when we use external signature rather than original code, at the time of upgrade it will not allow. but if we can do a fresh installation it should work. I will try to workaround this.
Nice mod, I like it, too bad still not ready for X10
sorry but the links are not functionally?! another link please

I set out to edit my first system file because I was annoyed by it. The stock gallery in the Droid X has the worst background that should be fully black to help the rendering process. Instead of the application rendering some horrible gradient background it should just render the thumbnails, so I changed that real quick. Next up was the photo frame widget that the gallery uses. I love the black frame look seen in other gallery apps, so I took the white and changed it to a slick black gradient frame with a slight shadow. Granted this is NOT a huge modded thing – it will be a great addition to any Droid X, enjoy!

UPDATE.ZIP Method proves to be working perfectly so try this method first!
Download ZIP File by going here...
*UPDATED METHOD*
1. Download Zip
2. Place on SD Card of device
3. Boot into recovery (clockwork recovery or other custom recovery)
4. Install Zip from SD Card
5. Locate “WJDGalleryMod.zip.zip” and click install

Download APK File if need be - Here
Is this deoxed?
This is deodexed yes - and now the new update.zip method for clockwork is up
download link for zip appears wrong or its just me that gets the page cannot be found
Is it for 2.2 or 2.1?
2.2 right now... just updated link to file sry....working
Love it! Goes great with the theme I'm building for myself...
EDIT:
Found one flaw. On your zip file you put the MediaGallery.apk in the framework folder instead of the app folder. You might want to change that...
Works perfectly! The load time for media in the gallery seems to be greatly decreased! Thank you

Just realized, the two times i tried on rooted 2.2 OTA, I wasn't deodexed. You think that did it? I tried to just apply the zip from SD. I loved the look of the keyboard but it takes me so long to get stuff on my DX working, so I don't want to be stuck at M again (am now rooted and deodexed).
----------------
That must be it. I just tried on rooted/deodexed 2.2 OTA and it booted right up no problem.
So does this replace my existing Blackglass theme, or just replace the lame gallery? Sorry if that's obtuse, but I just started with this stuff.
The link for the zip is an .apk? does it matter??? I want to install this mod

Managed to find a copy of the new android market. Screenshot and download link below.
ENJOY!
There are 2 versions. One for NON Cyanogenmod ROMS and one for Cyanogenmod ROMS. The Cyanogenmod .apk MIGHT not work for everyone.
AND backup your old market .apk before updating. Just to be safe
No need to rename before installing. I didn't have to.

In order to install, rename it to "Vending.apk" (without the quotes obviously) and replace the Vending.apk in system/app/ using adb or Root Explorer or whatever you would like. That's how I did it at least, using Root Explorer.
are there more apps in this market or is this just a theme
but i didn't neet to install it changed onto new one automatically ??? :S guyz??? plz goto android market and downlaod somthing and wait and see what happens... if not works than close up and do that again...
here every thing is working well.Thanks
so is this a theme or does this actually have more apps????
is official this app?
just did some research and this is an actual market update
New market cuts refund time to 15 min
Got it working on my device. Found the DL link in one of the other threads on here. It says to change to .apk from zip but it changed it automatically. Looks nice. Gonna start a few dl's to see how well it works. But it looks awesome so far.

i learned of this new MARKET app today and I already have it running on my phone! awesome!... Thanks Conflikt Icey and XDA!!
im running (27.11.2010)MCCM SE V3.4(FroyoStone Sense) and all i did was download the apk... rename it to vending.apk and long-press on it. then i chose "OPEN" from the menu and installed it that way. thats it... worked on first try.
woohoo!
this is my 2nd attempt at helping the evo community and i hope some of you guys can help me out with some small stuff.
What it is-
This is a modified version of the CMwallpapers.apk, instead of having the CM wallpapers though it has the wallpapers pulled from a honeycomb system dump since those wallpapers are becoming very popular these days.
a big props goes out to lost.eden in the G1 forums making me a wallpaper gallery when i had my vogue rom i used his modified version in order to make the custom changes needed to create this. along with Whoever made the apk for CM.
YOU MUST UNINSTALL CMwallpapers.apk before installing this or it will not install

apk is attached its signed so just install it through a file explorer, i might make a flashable .zip if i get time tomorrow.
IMPROVEMENTS: this is where i would like some help if possible from the talents in this community, since this has the same package name as CMwallpapers it cant be installed side by side but when i tried changing it in the manifest it FC's anybody have a solution to this. If i get this figured out i can make more galleries like this for other ROMS
installing now!!! very nice.. thanks dude!

Personally I find it a brilliant idea. Instead of posting various wallpapers on my theme threads due to requests from people using the theme, this creates a central location for the most requested wallpapers that go with the theme and it is now built into the theme.
As just a casual user, it may not be as practical as the wallpapers included don't match your style. But for people using my theme it is very useful.
On a side not, Rom's like Deck's version of CM7 for the Evo and AospCmod for the Hero no longer include CMWallpapers as they consider it bloatware, so deleting apk's there is not necessary.
okay so here is just a little update on this,
so after talking to a couple of people on here
so their is no way to make the existing .apk able to be installed along side of the existing CMwallpapers.apk so a whole new one would have to be created in eclipse, with my current skill level that is a bigger task than once thought, but if their is one thing i have learned on here its that anything can be done with enough tenacity.
again i know some users on here wont care at all but i figured i would give you an update for those that do
Once, again, I am on a transparent widget kick. Here is the google search bar widget in a transparent theme.
Changelog: I have also themed a Black Google Search Widget with the browser symbol from Gingerbread. Download and pic below.
This is a system app, so you'll have to be rooted and have access to the system/app drawer via a file manager of your choice. I recommend removing the existing Google Search widget off your homescreen if you have one before replacing the .apk. I also recommend copying the stock, existing GoogleSearchBar.apk from your system/app drawer and keeping it on your sdcard in case something goes wrong, or you want the stock search bar back. After replacing the existing .apk with the themed one reboot your device and re-check your widget list.
as always, since this requires modifying your system/app drawer, I take no responsibility for you gorking your phone. If you don't know what your doing, take some time to ask, or read.
I also take no credit for the development of this .apk. All Credit goes to Google Development.

Sorry i dun think ur update.zip for transparent google search widget is working, i flashed using cwm, my original one is still there.
According to ClockworkmodRecovery, it won't accept the zip because it used a deprecated udate script. Simply installing the apk doesn't seem to work either.
has anyone been able to successfully install these? awesome widgets but the .apk file will not install and trying to install the zip via CWM tells me its not compatible with cwm 3.0.
easily got it to install. Reboot after uninstalling original and install just as any other apk via root explorer, however it was not transparent. Original white
Thanks, works perfectly. Simply backup stock google search apk (if you'd like) and remove it, unzip and place the apk you wish to install on usb storage, install and add widget to your home screen. At least that's what I did and have had no issues with it...
it didn't turn it black or transparent still the same stock white
Doesn't work for me either, just says "Application Not Installed."
you take requests? I am looking for one that I saw the widget was solid black with google and the microphone in ics blue ???

I made a change in application SMS GO to stay with the appearance of the original application of the xperia. I edited the file using EDIT APK, but when trying to install the phone in an error, even using recovery.
NOTE: already edited several apk, but this is not the only one that installs.
If any developer can guide me would be grateful.
Attached is the edited and original apk.

I'm sure that there a right way to modify 3rd part app,but since the moment that I don't know too much, I can only suggest you to convert go sms in a system app (you can do that with titanium backup pro or maybe with some other app...try to google it) and then if you only need to change .png images you can just replace them into the apk file without extracting it and then push the app into system and reboot!! If you need to modify .xml files,you can use apk manager to decompile,compile and sign the apk!! if you try to modify a 3rd part app it will not work (I don't know the technical reason),so converting it in a system app is a solution to this problem!! But maybe you can wait to hear other opinion from anyone else with better knowledge than me!! hope it helps you!!

You change .9.png or just .png? For editing the first ones you should use a patch, search in the general Android Themes thread.
For editing and compiling system apps you should use apkmanager instead of editapk (wich I don't know)...
If ya need further advice mail or PM me.

Something strange happened!
Developers, tried all the above methods to install the modified application, but all without success.
I used modified ROM "vmmcs" 2.3.7
Unintentionally I had to reinstall the original rom Xperia 2.3.3.
Before installing custom ROM again. I tried to use the apk HE RAN NORMALLY.
CONCLUSION: SOME APPS MUST HAVE A MEANS TO RECOGNIZE THAT THE ANDROID HAVE ROOT, SO IT DOES NOT ALLOW THE INSTALLATION
Hello, if u have the SMS apk, why dun u try to unzip/unpack the apk contents, replace the PNG icons in Res/drawable-hdpi inside sMS apps, and rezip/repackaged using Formatter? I try to edit my Custom xperia Home.apk icons and it worked!! Here the guide thread for formatter
