Help

I am constanly strugling to read and compose text in sms message due to the small black font on white background does any body know of any app that will let me use smm with a dark background as this is what i use on my Nokia 701 Its so bad ihave gone back to my Nokia in these sunny days

As I have tried different themes but they dont change it but there seems very little text and colour ajustments on the Compact only thin black text on white background

On my last phone themes changes message and call settings and gerna

I solved the problem in Dialer by a Phone app that let you have background colours

Thanks

Handcent is another SMS app and it let's you customize nearly everything.

You don't have to register to use handcent, but you can. I never registered and I'm using it for several years now.

Hi I have downloaded both and are trying them out .

Evolve sms looks the most polished while its free you have to buy the themes

Handcent looks blocky and text is not as good and but has the dark background that I like

Will update in a week

What does "looks block" mean? I'm not a native speaker of English.

Sorry

Handcent

should have said "seems block and the text is not as good "

To sum it up as the Alexdon Said a Littel rough !!

I have come to the conclusion that Evolve sms is better lashed out and spent 60p on the theme unlook and most impressed you can change the background and increase text size

Which is what I struggled with . " Old Age "

well pleased with it
