Apps in theme white on black

First of all thanks to everyone here for being so helpful.
I'm trying to put together a list of applications which have themes that allow one to have a completely black background with white font.My view is that this would be fundamental in saving battery power.
Applications I use that have this facility are: Profimail, Newsroom.
I would like to do the same for HtmlViewer,Skyfire,Imo.im.
I am quite happy navigating with no images in at least one of my net browsers.
Excuse this long post

I am also using the theme with black background with white font.
It is great , as it is really save power, it is especially usefull for my sony X10.

Great.This is my opinion too. The more applications I use which put white print on black background, the longer the battery will last.
One other app I use that has a "night" setting is the tritone reader, for e-books, though I would very much like to view these forums in some kind of night mode, as well as browsing the net in white on black

You can add Due Today (a todo/project manager) to that list. I chose that theme for the very reason you're looking for.

Thanks,I will indeed add that to the list

You're welcome. Just wait until 1.3. It gets much better

Handcent can replace the messaging app and it allows you to set your own colors for the app as well. I actually use it right now with white text on a black background.

K9 Mail allows you to have an app for your email with a black background.

Quick question...

Can someone go into there gallery put it in landscape mode and find a pick with a grey or light background, and scroll the picture towards the side were status bar would be and tell me if u can see a faint color were it would be,am wondering if its screen burn in or something I don't know....

Future reference, please make a relevant title to any post you make. No one knows at a glance what "Quick question..." is about. This reduces the number of people who know what they're talking about(who usually avoid these types of threads based on title alone), which makes it considerably more difficult for you to get an answer.
That being said, I have no idea what your initial and follow up questions are even about.

XDA App - Enhancement/s ideas???

Hi All,
I've been quite closely following Alterbridge and his Overcome GB custom rom, and since i travel around alot, its been so worth my while following it through the XDA app.
The app itself is clean, no extra fuss, and gives exactly what you ask for. What i'm driving at here is, do you feel its missing anything? Maybe we can get the developer to join us and see if they like our ideas and possibly add them to the app.
i'll go first - i think the option to THANK someone in the forums, if they helped you in any way could possibly be added to the menu (for me in android, its long-pressing menu drop-down on a specific post )

The app itself is VERY similar to Tapatalk but its missing one of my must-have features. I would love there to be a "dark" theme that uses white text and a black background instead of black text and a white background. Just something to think about.

xda app
i still can't figure out how to post with it

Search function, being able to see the smileys instead of text wrapped in colons, ability to re-arrange the order of the favorites list, and the ability to attach files other than images.
I use the XDA app alot, probably more than I visit XDA on my PC, so I guess the little things that the tapatalk app don't do tend to bug me a little after awhile lol.

There is an option to use different themes. Press menu/more/settings/display style. And you want the simple theme.

Kobo app appears on my nexus 7 home screen even though I didn't download?

Hi, I'm a noob and have searched the forum before creating this topic. Hope there are no duplicates.
So I was downloading the camera app for my nexus 7 by modaco and it appeared on my home screen. However, there was this kobo books app which appeared too. I did not download it. It just appeared. It was not listed in my apps drawer though. It just appeared on my home screen which I then removed from. When I when to settings>apps, it was not there too. Let me reiterate that I didn't download the app and it appeared on my home screen only and then disappeared after I removed it from the screen. I know this sounds ridiculous, but it seems like my uncle had this problem too. Is it part of some ads posted by other downloaded ad supported apps? Cause this is weird and I hope it isn't a virus or something. I had just uninstalled the camera app by doodle apps and installed the one by modaco. Is it because of the doodle apps camera app? Cause it floods me with lots of ads. This problem is weird I know. But answers would be most appreciated. Thanks.
Noob android fanatic.

Transparent Gapps possible??

I know this may seem a bit of a silly question but I love transparent widgets and so forth. I was wondering if it would be possible to have Gapps that are transparent.
For instance, the swipe to the left feature of getting Google now on the home screen is nice but sometimes I love still seeing my family photos in the background. Or even semi transparent so that you could still see the background partially, or maybe modify something within the system to make all apps appear with some sort of transparency like an Xposed Module, anyone know if its possible?
(I used search but I'm on mobile so it basically included every thread that included the word 'gapps', nothing about transparent apps)
