Okay guys, at the suggestion/request of Konikub, who was told this couldn't be done, I, "Team LoneWolf" , decided to crack open the stock HTC Messaging application (Mms.apk), in order to investigate the possibility of inverting / applying a "dark theme" to the application.
It seems this has not been done before, and upon initial investigation, I can see why. Many of the HTC Sense applications share common resources (themes, styles, icons, etc), stored in com.htc.resources.apk. So, if you attempt to modify something used by Mms.apk, but stored in com.htc.resources.apk, you are going to unwittingly modify the appearance of other applications, and if other corresponding elements are not adjusted in those applications as well, you are going to have problems.
So, things that are "challenging" are the things I like to try and tackle, and inverting this application was a tough cookie, requiring extensive edits, in some cases to "undo" references to items stored / defined in com.htc.resources.apk, and rather, make them stand alone directly within Mms.apk. This required major edits to XML, Styles, Colors, local .pngs, and Smali/Java code. You wouldn't think simply themeing an app would require all of this, but Mms.apk did.
Essentially, what this mod has done, for the most part, is flip most text that was black, and made it white, and most backgrounds that were white, and made them black (inverted), giving you a bit more visual interest, as opposed to the stock "white" look.
For those running a dark theme on their phone, who prefer to use the stock messaging app (I use Handcent, lol), this should fit the bill nicely. Again, thanks to Koni-man for the "nudge" / "coaxing" to take a look at this.

Flash the attached (HtcMms.zip) via recovery. Also, let me know if I missed anything. It is certainly possible, as there are so many menu options / tasks that can be done, that I may have overlooked.
EDIT: MetaMorphs attachments added (morph_*.zip), to modify the default 'tap to compose' area from gray (shown in screen caps above), to black (screen capture), and another to return the application icon in the app drawer to stock color. DO NOT ATTEMPT to flash these. They must be applied using MetaMorph, AFTER you FIRST flash from recovery the original mod (HtcMms.zip). After applying using MetaMorph, you will need to, at a minimum, issue a Hot Restart, for the application to re-appear in the app drawer. It will disappear after applying the MetaMorph, and re-appear after a restart.

Indeed, he's a good guy. Honestly, if someone else came to me for help on this one, especially since I use Handcent (currently, I may switch now too!), I probably would have ignored the request. But, I always like to help Koni out when possible .
Very sweet I am downloading now
Might you be able to customie other apps like this? Like making the stock HTC music app and People app all black. That would make Sense even more epic.

Just flashed I like but needs a few details.
1. It changes the message icon at the top notification bar default.
2. Make the "Tap to Compose" section black with white like the rest.
3. Make the main message icon default color not blacked out.
Other than that very good work!!

Wow, JS. Nice. I want to use this, but question. Does this include any of the mods that were put into it from Calkulin. More specifically, the compression fix and 5MB limit fix. It's fine if it doesn't. They're just good to have.

I modded this from a stock Mms.apk. I'm not familiar with the details of the mods Calkulin did, but I assumed they were to the framework, as opposed directly to the .apk. I'll have to look, as, honestly, until now, I've never really used the HTC Messaging app.
BTW, I'll probably knock out a few MetaMorphs shortly, with some "other" preferences, such as the mentioned black "tap to compose" area. I did it that way initially, but didn't like it. It looked like too much black to me and made it hard to differentiate the compose versus non-compose areas. I'll probably also do a MM to restore the stock application icon. I wanted to darken it to denote it is a changed / darkened version of the app.
Thanks been wanting this for a while. I knew you was going to give us something cool you was too quiet.
You are the man.

Okay, FYI, I've attached 2 MetaMorphs to the end of the OP based on preference.
The first MetaMorph will change the "tap to compose" area from the modded gray in the OP, to black for those who prefer it, as shown below:
The second MetaMorph simply returns the application icon in the app drawer to stock white.
Note, after applying using MetaMorph, you will need to, at a minimum, issue a Hot Restart, for the application to re-appear in the app drawer. It will disappear after applying the MetaMorph, and re-appear after a restart.

After just getting around to installing your rotary unlock mod, I am loving this!
Only problem is I can't install it. I go into the recovery menu, choose install from zip and then confirm, I get an error.
Installing update...
Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported.
Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5.
It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread based recovery.
Please switch to Edify scripting (updater-script and updater-binary) to create working update .zip packages.
Any ideas why I get this error? I haven't changed anything since I installed the rotary lockscreen. Maybe switching to Amon recovery?

UPDATE:
I was having some issues yesturday and my buddy sdrew made me aware that the cam was broken. not vid just still;well i was working on updates ALL day trying to get things right on my phone so i could update, i ul'd a fix for the issues grab it below. the update will include hulu (thanks to planklongbeard),the options fixes and the newest adw. until i get the full update just grab the zip below and your issues will be resolved.

DOWNLOAD BB_FIX
UPDATE:
I FINALLY GOT IT!!!!!we now have the first theme with integrated supercircle battery icons. I had to de-compile edit and then re-compile framework to get it to work right. i re-upped a version with the new swyping kb(Blueberry-CM-nightly-exp8cs.zip) for those who cant get it installed(downgrade is a pia); and another with the 1.56kb+tts(Blueberry-CM-nightly-exp7ds.zip) for those that can.

Love the settings icons..
I could show pics all day cause its really detailed everywhere Thank you for sharing this!
There is just a couple spots the white lettering is a bit hard to read. its by no means anything big at all and may even be me lol. The first one looks much better in the pic but on the phone the white letters below the add call etc don't really pop out at you. Black would pop out and be easier to read under different light/sunlight conditions.
Its the same in this one below where black would pop out more. As you know that would also change it black across the contact panel etc
Like I said these look great as is..it only becomes hard in different lighting conditions etc..
Is there anyway to get rid of the signal bars all together? Probably not but thought I would ask. Oh and are these the same fonts as in the last one? They seem close but I'm not positive.

Nope just wiped cache and flashed..I removed a few apk's so I can't say for sure those couldn't cause issues.

Some alternative home launchers (ADW) enable you to remove the text underneath the icons on your home screen(s). The mod does the same while keeping the stock Rosie.
Attached is a MetaMorph that you can use to apply to your existing Rosie.apk, that will remove the text from the icons on the homescreen(s), while retaining any previous edits done to your Rosie launcher. It does not currently recoup the space that the text previously occupied, however, it does allow for a "cleaner" look.

XML MetaMorph Control File <--- Apply using the latest MetaMorph Application
Note: When modifying Rosie.apk with MetaMorph any of your existing widgets on all of your screens will likely get reset and need to be re-added.
Also, for some reason on the EVO, Rosie does not appear to like to be edited via MetaMorph, and as such, after applying the MetaMorph, you phone may freeze, requiring a battery pull or issuing a reboot via adb. All will apply fine after reboot.
As an alternative, you can pull the 'resources.arsc' file out of the linked MetaMorph, and manually insert it into your existing Rosie.apk file, and adb push back to your phone. It is recommended to issue the push during a reboot, or generate an update.zip file to flash via recovery. Pushing via reboot or applying via an update.zip file in recovery will prevent you from having to re-apply any of your widgets. As mentioned above, applying changes to Rosie while the phone is fully booted causes you to have to re-apply any widgets.

Problem is, if you have any other changes to Rosie making it non-stock, a flashable zip will undo those other changes. It's such an easy change, if you want, post up your Rosie.apk file, and I'll modify it and create a flashable zip.

This removed all the text from my home screen (flashed with Metamorph only lost my widgets not my icons) but the Wifi, GPS, Mobile data, and Ringer Profile all still have text. I assume this is because they are widgets not app icons?
Also oddly enough it un-centered the Phone icon on my Rosie launcher using Virus theme, it is now slightly to the left, doesn't matter at all to me just found it odd.

That is what I thought for the widgets just wanted to be sure. As for the phone icon mo that was actually me not being observant lol. Turns out it just removed the word "Phone" that was next to the phone icon, I just never noticed the icon was off center till the word was no longer there. This is an awesome mod to bad soon after flashing this I found a really awesome font, one awesome enough for me to want my icon text back lol. I had to flash my Nandroid back up to get the text back. Do you know if there is a way to make a metamorph to bring the text back instead of having to go this route?

Oops, that should not have happened, i.e. remove of the 'Phone' text. That is an accident on my part, as I have it removed, and it is in the same file. I thought I was working off a stock Rosie for this mod, but clearly I was not. Sorry about that. I will modify accordingly.
You can always grab the stock Rosie.apk out of the ROM zip file you originally downloaded and just push it back to your phone to undo this change.
So with this mod taking away the texts, is it possible to manipulate the size of the icons as well??
Ok - so I am the OP - but not really. I found this in the general themes section and it is a theme for the X - so I thought I could direct people to it...

I personally have not tested it. I just thought some people might be interested and never find it - which would be a waste of all the hard work the OP put in.
Will this work OVER the fission ROM? This looks awesome and I would love to try it out.

I haven't tested it. But there's no reason it shouldn't work. As always do a nandroid first. Let me know how it goes.

Can you get me some more details? What rom did you come from? were you running any other themes prior to installing mine? What exactly happened. Did it lock up, not load etc? Any info you can give is appreciated. I'd like to make it compatible with fission for sure.

I'm on Fission 2.0.94 For DX very latest.
I like the hints of blue on the task bar.
Some of the setting links FC because they are NOT in the present Rom such as data mgr,accounts,and backout assistant. maybe others but I realize its a work in progress.
Oh some of the function button are to gray in various app's to see selections .
That all that I could see in after a little few minutes of playing.
Thanks for adding to the Fission Themes .I'm sure this will a a winner whens it completed.
What's "oh hal!"mean??? For some ocd reason it has been bothering the heck out of me.
Sh******t, if I knew it was gonna be this kind of party I woulda stuck my d*** in the mashed potatoes.

when I go to install this from recovery it says "can't open Fission_IceHole0.80.zip (bad) Installation Aborted.*
PS: I'm on Fission 2.0.1 w/reboot update.
OK take back my previous post. Got it to update, but didn't get signal the first time it booted up. Rebooted and its fine now. Noticed a couple of issues:
1. Dial buttons are still yellow when pressed.
2. Text messages in status bar are still black (doesn't look good on a black status bar)
3. Lock screen is back to the 2.2 lock screen. (some like some dislike, not a huge deal)
4. The volume/music bars are still yellow (would be nice if they were blue like the theme)
5. The stock music app is not themed like your original.
6. Weather/news widget would look nice themed too!
7. The stock DX keyboard still shows red when pressed. Would be nice to have this blue also.

okay I went from 928Droid's Black Glass theme, didn't get the lock screen its the old droid updated style... bottoms not the same, I use launcher pro but no icons or dock for it like ur pics... other than that when pressing keys on phone be nice if it was blue instead of red when pressed...
text notifications are orange when text... still playing will update
**UPDATE 1/29/12**
trparky put up some new links for us
Black_and_Blue_v1.9.zip -- Base Black and Blue Theme
Black_and_Blue_Batt2_v1.9.zip -- Black and Blue Theme with Round Battery Icon
Black_and_Blue_Infinity_TSM.zip -- Black and Blue Theme with Infinity ROM TSMParts Compatibility[/QUOTE]
**/UPDATE 1/29/12**
**UPDATE 12/16/11**
This is based on EP4D. There were some issues that may have stemmed from how the original files were deodexed, so I went back through and did my own deodexing from the actual OTA. Hopefully this should fix whatever issues there were. DWitherell put a lot of time and effort into some edits that have been incorporated into the theme, such as the reboot options, removing the label at the top of the power menu, enabling ASOP lockscreen. I hope everything is taken care of now.
**/UPDATE 12/16/11**
I know I've been stuck on making blue themes lately, but I've been trying to get one that I would really want to stick with. I'm pretty satisfied with this one. I used some of the images from ICS, a few from framework-res.
This is definitely the closest I've gotten to a complete retheming. It should be coherent throughout the system, so the text should be the same color scheme in addition to the images.
This theme is based off of stock EP4P release, meaning it will work with stock deodexed or Humble (I haven't actually tried it, but its stock, so it ought to work). I assume it would also work with EP1W Gummy RC1.5 and below, but not 2.0 or 2.1, and it probably won't work on Infinity. When we get some new ROMs out, I'll probably port it to work with them.
Themed:
Camera.apk
ClockPackage.apk
Contacts.apk
DialerTabActivity.apk
DownloadProvider.apk
framework-res.apk
Gallery3d.apk
JobManagaer.apk
MediaProvider.apk
Mms.apk
Phone.apk
Settings.apk
SystemUI.apk
TouchWizCalendar.apk
twframework-res.apk
Downloads:
dwitherell let me know today that he had worked out the smali edits necessary to put the extended boot options into the power menu (when you hold the power button). So thanks to him we now have recovery and download boot options just a click away. These will be included in all versions starting with v1.4
Black_and_Blue_v1.9.zip
Black_and_Blue_Batt2_v1.9.zip
*This is the same theme but with a round battery icon*
Black_and_Blue_Infinity1214_TSM.zip
V1.0 Was pretty close to a finished product, however, as I continued testing it I found a few more images that needed to be dealt with, then as I got more into it, I went through and tried to get all of the text to be the proper colors, so hopefully you shouldn't run into the yellow/brown text color in at least any of the major apps.
Instructions:
Make sure you have root and Clockwork Recovery installed
- Boot into recovery (Use either Reboot Button app or Hold Volume Up + Home + Power Buttons when phone is off, until the Samsung logo flashes then release all buttons)
- Select "mounts and storage"
- Mount /system/
- Go Back
- Select "install zip from sdcard"
- Select "choose zip from sdcard"
- Select "Black_and_Blue.zip"
- Select "Yes - Install Black_and_Blue.zip"
- Go Back
- Select Reboot System Now.
***The first boot may take a little longer than usual***
As usual, flash this theme at your own risk, myself, xda, nor anyone other than yourself is responsible for damages to your phone.

Gunnermike as I used the info he gave me for my last theme to continue my work.
dwitherell made the smali edits to the stock EP4 files in order to get us the extended boot options. He used information from untermensch as well as information he was able to piece together from the infinity team.
substanced as I used his modded camera.apk which is included after v1.6
If you give the theme a shot and like it, leave me a thanks. Or Buy Me A Drink
Not sure if anyone has jumped on this, but I've updated the OP with links for v1.1 as well as updated screenshots. This should be pretty much a final release, there shouldn't be much to change.
Loving this theme so far 100x better than corecharge. Now I truely love my phone!!!

Alright, you get to pick the next color then. What would you like to see? It probably will be a few weeks off, but it'll be my next project
Hey stranula thanks for this great theme work. This looks beautiful, clean, simple, stylish, and a great color choice. I used your grays and blacks a while back but this looks really nice. Keep up the good work, I for one appreciate and use your themes.

Great, its good to know that there are people using them. I'm quite pleased with how this theme turned out. I really just theme in an attempt to satisfy myself. The stock theme is awful, and a lot of themes people make are too....well they are too something....I like simple. So when I get bored looking at my theme then it comes time to produce another one haha. I do like the basic look I've got on this one.
Nice Job! Simple,crisp& clean theme. I used your gray's & black theme also. Some of the other themes I've seen are too over the top for my liking.
As for color suggestions maybe a green theme, or red theme would be nice.

Very cool theme. Great Job! I would like to see a red and black theme with the signal indicator to be red as well. Would be something different and fit the "droid" name. Just a thought and idea. Anyways thanks for the work that you put into the charge. Appreciated!
Exactly what I've been looking for... complete with crt screen off animation. Thanks!

As for the next color...dark purple (honeycomb-ish) ?
----too overdone
Green?
-----hmm...
Red?
----already been done
How about something that matches SwiftKey X's Neon or dark (or whatever it's called) theme?
---Not neon, I could just use ICS theme.
Gray and green maybe.

Stranula,
Thanks for the work on all your themes. I've had the grey in the past and now I'm sporting your "another" blue. I'll probably give this one a shot this weekend. However, I love the Droid Eye phone skin from "another". Is there a way I can just copy a file somewhere to keep it? If so, what file and where do I put it.
Again thanks for your work!
See the OP for an update to v1.2. It fixes some stuff in the contacts.

You would need to copy the appropriate images from the droid eye phone.apk and dialertabactivity.apk to the same apks from this rom.

Make sure you use CWM and do a backup before doing anything else custom. Whenever you do a custom mod and things work and you like, then create another backup. If your mod fails or you hit a wrong button, then you can use CWM and restore from your previous backup.
As you get more backups on your sd card, you will want to start deleting them from the oldest as they will fill your sd card.

Yeah it was no big deal just more of a pain in the butt. Most stuff such as apps I have backed up but settings is no big deal to me.

Ah I see you've included the stock tw clock app. That's good, it seems like most roms nowadays just use the aosp one but this is one of the few areas where touchwiz excels because that app has so much more functionality.
Theme looks really slick. Flashing as soon as ep4p finishes downloading.
Glasstopia
This is by no means a completed theme. I've just spent many many hours getting everything translucent and correcting everything I could find that didn't look right with the new transparency (Not to mention getting Contacts.apk to compile at all). So for now, I'm calling this an initial release.
F.A.Q.Q. You included the blue flames?!?! Oh No!!!!
A. Ok....seriously this time. The flames (and most status bar changes coming in the future) are housed in the system/app/SystemUI.apk. If you delete it from Glasstopia before you flash, or push the one over from Glasstopia_Revert or HFS after you flash, then no more flames
I originally created this theme for the Vibrant a long time ago, and decided to bring it over to my new phone. What I've been able to do so far:
General Cyan/Blue Theme
Many Custom Icons and Images
New Wallpaper (See Bottom)
"Accurate" Battery Icons
Translucent Notification Dropdown
Animated Notification Icons
Translucent Dialer
Translucent Contacts
Translucent Mms
Translucent Settings
Translucent Music Player
Translucent GMail

I don't see any point in reproducting perfectly good work, so I won't be making any widgets that are on that list. However, if there's any widget that you don't find there, isn't up to date, or simply would like it looking a bit different let me know and I'll take a look at it
Glasstopia v1.3:
Added animated notification icons
Themed system menu icons
Themed power menu icons
Themed popup menus
Added "missing" icons
Glasstopia v1.2:
Framework-res.apk and systemui.apk now are themed by Theme Engine
Gmail.apk updated to latest version
Animated status bar removed for the time being (hopefully will find a good way to add it back)
Glasstopia v1.1:
Reduced transparency of framework to better accommodate visibility of text in certain apps.
Fixed text color oversight in Mms compose message.
Added some new icons
Re-skinned Lockscreen
Fixed lack of transparency when creating new contacts.
New status bar images
General blue/cyan coloring
New Mms.apk images
New default_wallpaper.png (doesn't seem to apply)
Probably more....
Glasstopia v1.0 (Initial Release):
Translucent and Animated Statusbar
Translucent Dialer

Guess Dropbox isn't going to work for me. My old host is out of business unfortunately. Let's see how mediafire does. Sorry about that. Links are updated.
Also, shouldn't NEED to wipe anything. However, if you like to be extra careful, it never hurts to wipe the cache first.
Edit: haven't decided on a theme color yet. I kinda like blue themes, but there's been suggestions for red in keeping with the general theme of the rom. Thoughts?

Glad you like it. Ya, I'll definitely be changing out lots of icons and images in the future. This is just the result of the "hard work" of making everything transparent (people don't get how much actual coding can be involved for theme projects like this sometimes ). I just kind of exhausted myself with this first part and took a little breather since the next part is pretty tedious.
I'll hopefully get started on the images tomorrow if i can decide between blue and red (or maybe both somehow)

I would suggest waiting until I post an update after each of Hell's updates. It's not so much that it wouldn't work....it very likely would. However, any changes Hell makes to the apks I'm replacing would be lost.
However, my current plan/goal is to basically postpone my releases until Hell makes a new release. At that point I'll find a quick "stopping point", package it up, and post it here. Hopefully I'll be able to get this done either same day or next day depending on my work schedule (I work 12hr shifts, so some days are definitely better than others ).
Flames
I'm relatively new on XDA, so please don't flame me; however I am not a huge fan of the flames. Now I know that this is not a matter to be argued about, as everyone has different tastes. I was just wondering if there is any real way to use this theme without them. Just to be sure, I did the factory wipe in CWM as described in the OP; however, as I expected, this wiped my phone and left the flames. I realize that this description on removing the flames may be sarcasm, and that is perfectly acceptable. It is your theme and I have no right to complain about it or ask you to change it to my liking. I would only ask that you point out whatever I am missing if there is a way to remove the flames. If not, I won't complain.
Thanks

Indeed it was sarcasm. If you delete the SystemUI.apk out of the /system/app folder in the Glasstopia_v1.0.zip when flashing to HFS it won't add the flames. To remove them if you already have them, move the SystemUI.apk from Glasstopia_Revert.zip or HFS.zip to Glasstopia_v1.0.zip then flash.
Edit: Peterman720 is not to be harmed. I knew this question was coming from someone sometime, and he phrased it politely
