You could try Chomp sms or Handcent sms from Android market. These both have changeable font sizes.
Hi, on your default app try to open settings (touch button on the left when you are in the main screen), for me the last option is to set the font size, maybe your is called "font size" or something else. I use FroYo and the standard sms/mms app (the AOSP one). Sorry for my english if it's not good/perfect
GT I9000 @ TapaTalk
but i can't find font setting in chompsms
Not working. Can you help me?

You need to actually customise the look in ChompSMS, there you can choose the colour of the incoming and outgoing conversation bubbles, font type, colour, and size.
i tried it but it only does the preview
Once you click and open the message the text letter are the same size. Wanted them bigger for the wify

I'd love to see some sort of shell or replacement for the normal SMS app that maintained all the simple design of the default app (i.e. without Chomp's ugly iPhone clone...I didn't buy an iPhone) but allows us to change colors? I'd love for my texts to maintain the otherwise dominant scheme on the phone, i.e. white text on black background.
There are themes out there that do this, like the prodigal sun theme.
I suggest trying handcent SMS
You can use the original android style instead of Iphone style like I do.
You can change the colors of many things. You can even add a background picture to the threaded messaging screen.

I gave Handcent a shot. Unfortunately, using the Android conversation style with the Black theme doesn't work very well. Take a look
I use the black theme.. But on the threaded view I have a nice picture of nature..
And the message boxes are almost transparent.. It looks beautiful..I'll try to show you a screenshot later.

I agree, Handcent is very customizable and doesn't force you to use the ugly ass iphone bubbles.
You may want to try either a rogers based ROM, or try moving the messaging app from a rogers build.. It comes with black background/white text messaging.
When your in a message, and you tap a received or sent item from the thread, the bright blue highlight color comes over the message. How do you change this color or is it possible?
Bump? I hate to bump this, but I need to be able to change/skin this if I can.
Are you using The WM Messaging App or the HTC one? If it's the former there is a thread that may help you.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=622520
Some Colours are Themes dependant. Have you tried using a different Theme to see if the colour you mention changes?

hi colossus_r, thanks for your help but obviously it doesn't work
i've tried modifying "sysfnt" but it doesn't work either
i am on wm6.5 samsung i8000
Good Morning,
I've just tried to skin my whole phone with metro/wp7. So far I managed to skin pretty much everything but the Messaging App and Active Sync background. It should be black like the background when composing a message.
Here the screen-shots of both (changing the font is no problem, thanks to UItweek):
Screenshot 1 and 2 in the attachment
And thats the way the "composing a message" windows looks like and the inbox should look as well:
Screenshot 3 in the attachment
Thanks for the help
PS: My ROM is Energy.BLACKSTONE.23678.Sense2.5.Cookie.DinikGlass.Aug.18.
Looks great! Good Job!
What would the threaded messages window look like , like pic 2 or 3?
I really like the threaded messages window so I'll post it too. It looks like it should with black background...
Any ideas?
how to change the threaded messages window background color?
That was pretty simple. Either you use UItweak http://www.freewareppc.com/download/utilities/uitweaker.shtml or look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=603905 if you want a picture as background.
The problem: Both won't change the Inbox window background and that's what I want.
i download the ui tweaker but having dificulties on which options to change outlook/sms thread background color, can you point me? thanks
that's exactly my problem, i can't change the inbox background just the background for viewing and typing messages.
If you want to change the "viewing and typing" background just go to "SysColor Changer". Change there the color to black (I don't know which one exactly you have to change for this effect. I changed pretty much every background to black and the font to a light blue. With white font you won't be able to see the text in the inbox window)
In the attachment you'll find my sys file. I tried to style my phone a bit wp7/metro like. just rename it to blue-black.sys (xda won't let me upload a *.sys file) and import it.
thanks, i'll play a little with it
if you have a solution for my problem, plz post it
Is there anyone with a solution or is it posted in the wrong section?
I think its better to close this thread now. Maybe there is simply no answer to that question.
OP, did you ever figure out how to change the background?
I have a theme that has the text input section black, but the chat log section is grey. I want to change the background to black but I can't figure out how.
Can someone please tell me how I can edit a .tsk file to make a black background for threaded sms? I've been searching everywhere and I can find which specific edit I need to make to change the background SMS window colour. Also the font colour for that window will need to be changed to white.
I'm trying to edit this theme I have attached.
Here is a screen shot of how it looks now. and the other screen shot is roughly how I want it to look (with black background).

Hi bobzero
I'm sorry but I never worked out how to get this done. I have skinned the "message writing window" by using UITweak. Maybe yours is not skinned because I've used an Energy ROM and there HTC Messaging is disabled.
At the moment I'm using Sense again with a very good looking X-mas theme. Maybe after Christmas I'll "return" to WP7.
The pocket outlook and contacts background is definied by the "gradient" color values under the registry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Color]
There are four keys named 15, 16, 36, 37 which are the alternating left to right gradient colours. You could set all of them to a single value to get a solid background color.
I find these through a Japanese customisation software called "PocketHand"
http://smart-pda.net/isourou/pockethand/
can someone please explain how to change font and size in sense roms?
thanks

Anyone know how to change the fonts used in "compose mail", in the mail app?
I'm on the Revolution ROM (Gingerbread), & I think the font is Times New Roman - I'd like it to be Arial (so nobody can tell if I'm sending mail from desktop or mobile )
