Anyone, the background of the last thing the person says is the same color as 
the words.  I also just recently updated to Gingerbread (2.3.3) on my Droid X.

Thank you for the report. I have read other reports from people doing that 
update having the same problem with other applications. It seems the 
manufacturer (Motorola?) included a theme update in there, which makes a lot of 
applications show up this way.

Unfortunately, I have no way to reproduce this since the error does not show in 
the emulator. Anyway, I now added code that forces a black background on the 
conversation list. Hopefully this should solve the issue.

Thanks for reporting it!

Should be fixed in r121. Marking this as ready for the next release.

This is apparently not resolved yet, as some user testing on an actual Motorola 
Droid X still exhibits the problem. Reopening.

Hmm, I wonder if the fixes done for issue 242 could affect his also?

I have this same issue on a Droid 2 running 2.3.3

Something that the original complaint neglects:  The text has a grey background 
because it appears to be selected or highlighted.  If you touch the text, or a 
previous line of text, the selection focus changes and the highlight goes away.

Hope this helps.

In the alpha version of 0.6.10 this issue has been cleaned-up slightly.   The 
gray background is still very much an issue when a radio button is present.  
When no radio button appears the background color is black.
All other buttons still appear with a gray background as well.

DROID x 2.3.3

I get this effect when I touch my screen in the About/help section of the app 
but not anywhere else.

Running CM 7.1 Android version 2.3.4

The most game-breaking bug of the gray text on gray background is now solved 
with r173.

For reference, the changes needed are summarized in this article:
