How do you change the background/font color in email and sms? The themes I found go WAY too far and change every icon, color, and interface. I ONLY want the background/font color to change. I've heard of other apps that invert colors but can't find them. Is it really all or nothing in the android world?

BTW, I searched this forum but only saw this topic in the amoled phone forums, and they seem to have control that I don't in the HTC rezound. My phone is rooted and loaded with CM10.1. The themes for this firmware are no different than the others in that they change too much.

Thanks for any help!
 
I use handcent for my text messaging app. It's much better than the stock one.

Another vote for Handcent... very versatile. Chat bubble colors, fonts, styles, notification tones, etc -- can have global custom settings and individual settings.

Random image found on the internet: (does not have a background, but you can add that as well.)
