Man what's with all the negativity in the g3 forums people are too uptight relax and chill it's all good.

If you want a dark messaging app, look at Textra - much better than 8sms

Because if you post a thread like this in the Themes section, people are assuming you've actually themed the dialer, contacts, and messaging app yourself. Anyone can go searching the Play store to find alternative dialers or messaging apps. That's why the negativity. Did you really expect a bunch of people to run here to praise you for giving us Play store links?

If you read the thread is called themes and APPS I could care less about praise I was just sharing a couple of apps I came across there are plenty of threads that are play store apps in other phone threads under themes and APPS and in this thread for example this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/themes-apps/app-nfc-auto-off-gps-auto-off-t2824283
but whatever just was trying to give some people some alternatives that they might not know about

Look, we all appropriate linking to cool apps...but your title is very misleading. You should change the title to the name of the app. Honestly, I came in here looking for stock dialer and contacts.

It is. And thanks for pointing this out. Never heard of the app before.

I use ExDialer and Contacts.. It's super easy to use ..Swipe left to right, calls the contact.. Swipe right to left opens the SMS default program.. Beautiful free themes, too

2.1 Messaging App Facebook Status on Froyo

Hey all,
I really liked the fact that i could see the facebook status of the person that i was texting at the top of the thread in 2.1. Is there anyway that you could get that same functionality in Froyo?
haha i just noticed its not there! LOL nice catch. Bump to this
i still have it
Would porting the messaging app from 2.1 to 2.2 be the only way we could do this? Would this even be possible? Because i know a lot of people use Handcent but the reason i dont use it is because i like being able to see the persons most recent facebook status at the top of my thread

It's a gray box for you because your sim doesn't list your number. If you see your number under Settings -> About -> Status. If it lists your number under My Number you can just add yourself as a contact with a picture and it will show up. Otherwise there are some phones that allow you to add the number. I personally used a simcard-reader/writer for my computer.
Yeah i have seen the messanging app on my freinds phone and i dont really mind the fact that there is a picture for each message, but I would really miss seeing the persons most recent facebook status because I might not necessarily see thier status on my news feed. The lack facebook status on the messanging app is the only reason I havent flashed the froyo test build

I know, but thanks for your help. I had to use an old SE phone to change my SIM number. But seriously this is a really large oversight on Google's part. Like I am suppose to make a contact of myself just so I can have a picture there?? That's ridiculous.
Is also like this. Much prefer the messaging app from cyanogenmod /:

Is there a stock launcher without the search bar?

I have used the Nova Launcher that has an option to remove the quick search bar and it doesn't leave any unused space like cm9 does! It actually gives me more space for more apps or a 4X1 widget..
I can't believe Google forced this stupid search bar on us even though we already have a search button that eliminates its purpose..
Anyway is there a way to get the STOCK launcher just without the search bar?
Thanks!
The search bar in the newer Nova Launchers is implentented as a widget, so if you deactivate it and delete the search bar you have your unused space free for widgets or shortcuts.

You can disable the search bar on stock launcher
go to manage apps
in ALL apps, find and select Google search
There is an option to disable
However after it is disabled, the space can't be used for placing shortcuts or widgets like what you said. I am still looking for a way to eliminate the restirction.
I don't c what the big deal is with that search bar...I doesn't bother me..even on GB that lil bit of space was unusable anyway...and its not like it looks bad or anything..atleast that's my opinion..

In CyanogenMods ICS-launcher there is also a option to disable the search-bar. Just google for Trebuchet.apk or extract it from a cm9 rom like me. Im using it with stock ICS, and it works just lika a stock launcher, just with the cm9 preferences
Edit: sorry, probably not what you're looking for..

Well...you do you see a deticated search button on the GN?
Google made it for the GN. Also....,he search button is lovely....it gibes it a nice google Android feel. Why take it out. The home screen is still 4*4 so what's your problem?
Here is how it goes....
If you don't like the search bar you don't like Android.
If you don't like Android you don't like google.
If you don't like google...you don't common sense.
If you don't have common sense...you don't have a brain.
If you don't have a brain you like the iphone....
If you like iPhone you must be mental.
If you are mental..you will kill Obama.
If you kill Obama people will blame china and Russia.
If that happens ww3 will start.
If ww3 starts your we will all die from an atomic bomb....
In short... either love the search bar....or gtfo of androids life.
PS. I know Android is open source and is meant for people to change it...but still....don't hate on the search bar

So... How to disable the search bar. There is a simple solution. Go to settings, app settings, all apps, look for google search. Disable it. Ta damm, your search bar vanished. There is a thing though... If you do this, the capacitive search button also won't work in launcher. But long press (voice recognition, SMS, screen rotation or whatever you set there) will keep working. Of course u can reenable google search again, and everything is restored.

Flipboard for Android (Dark Theme Mod)

Hi Guys
I was just wondering if anyone would be able to do a Dark Theme Mod of the Flipboard app?
I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who would like this if possible.
Here's hoping! And thanks as always.

Well, it obviously looks like there is not a developer or themer that wants or needs this.
Maybe you all should work together to modify the app theme to a dark theme. It isn't that complicated. There is also the option of using a 3rd party launcher or 3rd party theme app to achieve this, some of these can even add the dark theme to everything on the device without needing to modify the apps themselves.

I went to Playstore and searched for:
"Dark theme"
These are the results:
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=Dark theme&c=apps
Some of the apps in those results can be used to dark theme other apps, even add dark theme to the whole device with the right setup of app/apps. Try a lot of them, dig deeply into the different ways they can be used, see if any work together to enable/disable dark theme where you want/don't want.
I did a simple Google search for:
"Apps to make all apps dark theme"
This is one of the first results I found:
https://www.davebennett.tech/dark-theme-any-app/
That is just one result, there are many others.
The point is, there are things already available to do what you want.
If that isn't enough, do a Google search for:
"How to use APKtool to modify apps"
Or
"How to theme android apps"
Use one/some of those guides to learn how to actually modify and repackage the apk file of whatever app that you want to add dark theme to.
To learn how to actually edit the apk to add dark theme, do a Google search for:
"How to edit apk file to add dark theme"
You can even change the icon for the app or even change the image files for the different "buttons" or the font in the app, you can even change the color/location of buttons and text in the app.
The point is, the stuff to do what you want already exists at various levels of difficulty. Find the difficulty level that you are comfortable with and figure it out by trial and error.
I think I've shown you some basic examples of how you can acieve your result for any/all apps, it's up to you to dig in and find your best option.

I'm looking for the exact same answer. I normally do some light reading after dinner. And the white background on my android does my head in. I just saw that ios users have it lucky with the invert colours option. Why the step motherly treatment for us android users?
You can enable invert color option from developer menu while using Flipboard
Am using that since many days as I found no other option

[WIDGETS] Chameleon Launcher Widgets

Now that Chameleon Launcher has hit the Google Play market for real, I thought it'd be a good time to start a thread on xda for widgets made for this very promising Android launcher.
NOTE: The URL to the Chameleon Launcher 'make a widget' page that contains all the information required to make a widget, including a template, is HERE
Please, post your creations below...
Cool! And I subscribed to this thread.
I want to dive into developing widgets because of the lack of them. Chameleon says we can use the source of their widgets.
So I wanted to make a EU style datetime widget but i cannot find the source of any widget except for an empty template.
There are links to the widgets landing pages but that only gives me the source of index.html. And I think I need more than just that.
Anyone knows more about it?
I published my question and then i thought that maybe i am posting in the wrong forum. If so, please Mod, teleport it to the right one.

Almost all the neccessary files are linked in the index.html; you can find all the stylesheets and javascript files there. Also, you know there is a manifest.xml-file in the template-folder, so maybe you can find that by adding /manifest.xml to the url. (don't know if it works!)
If I may request, a reddit widget that allows you to login to your reddit account and display your frontpage

Thank God Google didn't bought it to use as the future interface of Android ), it wouldve mean total surrender to Apple and it's ios.
@hobolooter - It's ure right to disagree, as it's my right to say it's and overhyped crap.
The idea behind it seems good but the result... :laugh:
Maybe with the help of the community it would become useful indeed - good, practical widgets needed ! , not just stupid widgets for the teenagers, which are cool for the first 10 minutes and after that....

Theres a lot to be improved.

I disagree and think it was in poor taste to post that in this thread. The fact that they opened up HTML5 widget development that actually works well is awesome. I'm working on a few widgets myself and a starter kit that doesn't suck (the one they provide is nauseating to a js dev).

Custom wallpapers are supported. Just share any image to Chameleon App.
I've been playing around with a Chameleon widget that displays unread emails from an IMAP account. It uses PHP (with the IMAP extension) to fetch and process the email headers on the server, which works nicely but is less than secure unless using SSL (which I am), since the email account credentials have to be sent to the PHP script in plain text.
I'll admit that I've had very little experience writing for Android--most of my recent work has been with Javascript and PHP. I seem to recall being told at some point that it would be either difficult or impossible to fetch email data from the native Android email app to use in an HTML5 widget platform like Chameleon. Is that the case? I'd prefer to get the data from the local device, particularly because I need to support Exchange.
If you've got more experience with Android's bowels than I do, can you confirm (or unconfirm) the information I'd been told? Is there a practical way to access the email files with Javascript?
Thanks!

I tried it for 10mins and I think it sucked a lot on my Nexus 7, I think all the free ones are better I can see why it is paid but 10$ is kill.

what are the best apps on f-droid to get? (with black themes)

I'm looking for black themed apps specifically for like Gmail. I've come across in GB insta YouTube vanced and even face Slim. Those have been great, still looking for a decent email application with a black theme. If anyone knows the best apps to get on f-droid share them here.
I'm interested to see who considers what app to be good and why. Also there was a YouTube alternative app that allowed downloading app videos what was that app called? I'm sure someone on here will know.

I think the YouTube you're thinking of is called OG YouTube.
As for black email clients, I've been using the Samsung one. It's a little different to get used to but not bad.
Bromite, open source Chromium without Google's crap, if you care about that
Newpipe, very lightweight YouTube client with downloads and dark mode.

I have the Samsung email client set to sync Auto when received.
It's not using hardly any battery at all.
Check out YouTube Vanced - it's the regular YouTube client but with all the ads removed, has black mode, background play, and a lot more features! It's basically the way YouTube should have been designed in the first place!

i second that. youtube vanced all the way. been using it since my s8+. can't be any happier
even though download doesn't actually work for me. never seen the option even
so i use snaptube along with it
For email im using TypeApp which has a dark theme and fairly customizeable appearance and can support multiple email accounts. Its not on f-droid however so if you dont have/want to use google play store you may be able to find the APK for it online.
If you use the hex theme creator it sets gmail background to whatever you themed background colour to.

Thanks for the suggestion, how does the application work? I tried to make it work but am not sure how to get it to work. Is it like substratum?

If you personalise, setup the colours and settings you want. Then at the bottom build theme. Once that has finished, go to theme store and apply the hex theme.
Gmail, Google Photos, Play store and some others will theme.
The only issue I have found is multiple accounts in gmail I have to select the account swipe out of the app and back in every time I change account.

Interesting, I'll have a thorough look at the app hopefully it's as simple as you make it out to be. Cuz it comes packaged with two apps one being the theme selection store and then one of your own personal customisation. Also do you have to reapply the themes after every boot up? Or after every update do you have to uninstall each overlays like substratum if you wish to update?

Forget to mention that you need to turn on night mode in the hex app.
No the theme stays there all the time, when you make changes though, it seems that you have to apply the default theme then apply hex theme again.

Oh ok, I found the plugin apk, you can try installing see if this fixes the problem.

Thanks man! Where did you find/ or can I find more plug ins?
Also I'll give this a shot and see how it goes. Hopefully it doesn't drain or consume too much battery

There seems to be more components missing and this isn't as simple to do as they make it out. I wish there was a page or resource with all the apks needed to make this app work.

There is this thread here which talks about the app but I think the thread is about theme or similar, I'm a little confused about it.
