I am legally blind and with light text against a dark background can (with the help of a magnifer) use the Bold.

I find the default AT&T theme easy to read for the homescreen and menus. However the mail, calendar, phonebook, SMS & MMS, etc “applications” have dark text against a bright background — VERY hard for me to see.

I have played around with the “Reverse Contrast” Advanced Option which achieves the light text against a dark background when in the “applications” but results in the homescreen and menus appearing with dark against bright background which makes that very difficult to see.

Is there a way I can get the “best of both worlds”?

Ideally there would be a way to continue to use the AT&T theme while changing the text appearance within the “applications” without resorting to “Reverse Contrast” mode.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Glenn
