thanks again, is there a way to change the spacing between the bubbles?
Yes. However, I'm not sure exactly what values on which attributes it will need or what exact look you're trying to achieve. No offense, but you'll have to play around with it. I'm fairly sure there are already some attributes in there for spacing which should give some clues.
im trying to make it similar to the iphone, the spacing and the layout" like the outgoing bubble on the right, and the incoming bubble on the left. is this possible, i know you probably don't want to do it so i was wondering what i would need to change to do this?
I don't know. I would also have to figure it out. I would guess that making the bubbles more confined to either side of the screen and having them alternate like that iPhone app would be challenging, if possible. This is mostly due to the fact that the Gingerbread Mms.apk does not normally have two separate layout XMLs for the incoming and outgoing messages, one for each side. Your goal might be possible, but I wouldn't guess that it'd be easy.
well, if you ever get time and mess with it let me know what you come up with, but in the mean time, what can i do to space them out a little bit..
I don't know. If you mean the vertical spacing between the message bubbles, you might want to try messing around with margin attributes.
okay, how come when i change things, and then compile my apk with apk manager, select system apk and then it says y/n -copy over any aditional files from the original, and i hit no then i go to my mms.apk and nothing changes, it is all the same.. :/ im confused am i not doing something right? i am trying to get rid of the contact id and i set all of them too 0.0dip recompiled, but they are still there?
i need some help. I am trying to get rid of the contact id, in the mms.apk i have tried a few things and nothing works.. someone please help me conquer this, here is what i have tried :
<android.widget.QuickContactBadge android:id="@id/avatar" android:layout_marginLeft="0.0dip" android:layout_marginTop="5.0dip" android:layout_marginRight="5.0dip" android:layout_marginBottom="5.0dip" style="?android:attr/quickContactBadgeStyleWindowSmall" />
<View android:layout_width="1px" android:layout_height="1px" android:layout_below="@id/avatar" />
<android.widget.QuickContactBadge android:id="@id/avatar" android:layout_marginLeft="0.0dip" android:layout_marginTop="5.0dip" android:layout_marginRight="5.0dip" android:layout_marginBottom="5.0dip" style="?android:attr/quickContactBadgeStyleWindowSmall" />
<View android:layout_width="1px" android:layout_height="1px" android:layout_below="@id/avatar" />

Hey everyone. I am hoping to get some information about this project. I am looking to invert the Mms.apk from from Jake Day's JDX 13.0 rom (formerly Jelly Belly).
I've had some success in getting a black background and inverting the text. But I can't figure out where the color is set for the background when there are no conversations. I get a white background that says "No conversations." and for the life of me I can't find that setting. I am very comfortable with XML edits. I just need to know where the heck this setting is found. I've looked at all the png files and don't believe this is from a .9patch file (plus once I get a black background I will need to make the text white). Are there any comprehensive notes on what was changed int his project that I can reference or can anyone point me to a guide for modding Mms.apk for Jelly Bean roms? Many thanks.
