Change Colour of Messages - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone figured out how to change the colour of the messages in the inbox?
It irritates me that outgoing and incoming texts are the same colour.
How do I change this?
I have an omnia 7.

I didn't find any way to distinguish the incoming and outgoing text. They are bound together with the accentcolour.

Voice command notification of incoming text messages

I have a samsung saga with windows mobile 6.1 and voice command version 1.6.20961. my phone will alert me via voice of upcoming events,appointments, and incoming phone calls. is there any app that will notify me of incoming text messages? currently if i receive a call from my mother for example, i get a voice that says "incoming call from mother". how can i get this same thing for my text messaging? when i text comes in from my mother i would like it to alert me the same way as my incoming phone calls. example...."incoming message from *****". is there an app that does this?
thank you
Hi, I can't think of any, but there is rather silly but working idea is that you either record your voice via notes, or downloading a sound, and under sounds and notifications in the settings folder, navigate to the notifications tab and select Messaging: New text message, and select your sound file, which is either Recording for the recorded notes file or your respective sound file. For the sound file, place it in my documents. This solution is only for all text messages and not for respective text messages from your contacts.
Hope I Have Helped!

[Q] Different notification tones for email, voicemail and SMS

I am sorry if there is already a post with this question. I searched Google and XDA and didn't find any that were my question.
What I was wondering was if there was a way to have a different notification tone for email, voicemail, missed call and text messages. Right now, when I select my notification tone, it's the same tone for all.
Thanks in advance for your help.
I noticed today that if you set the main tone, then go to your sms inbox and click menu>settings>notification settings you can change the sms tone. Not sure about vm though, never tried.
Ha! You are awesome! That was totally it! I guess that the notification setting in Display and Sounds is the default for any message, but each application has a seperate setting that could be applied.
I did notice that when I set my notification tone in the messaging application, new messages set off both tones...the sms alert followed by default alert.
Thank you!

different notifications for tm vs. email

Can you have different notifications for a new email and text message?
Do you mean different audio notifications? I use Ringo Lite so that I can have different audio tones for text messages from different people, as well as to let me know when I have e-mails vs text messages, etc. Works fairly well. Only major complaint that I haven't bothered to figure out yet is that if I get an e-mail or text during a phone call I still get the vibration and sound (which can scare the crap out of you! lol)
Hope this helps.

Modify Incoming SMS

I had a question regarding modifying incoming SMS. How would I go about intercepting incoming SMS and automatically modify the SMS before it is displayed in the text app. For example, I use Google Voice. The text always look like 'Contact Name - Message Body Here.' How can I have the text automatically intercepted and have all text including the space after the - deleted? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
