[LIST] black energy saving android apps for AMOLED screens

We all know that black screens save energy on AMOLED screens and since I couldn't find a thread with all apps I'll now try to collect as much black apps as possible. I hope this list is helpful for a few of you.
If you got more please include them in a post and I'll add them to the list. Please do not post device specific themes. If you got a black app wich is similar or better than other white apps, please reply.

No, as far as I know LCDs doesn't save energy when the screen is black

LCD should use more juice drawing black.

There is a newer black facebook that is also transparent in the android hacking section. I like it quite a lot and think it could be a good addition to your list.

That is the one I am talking about. It actually fixed my notifications as well.

Glitch kernel let me OC to 1.4!

Just came back from 10 minutes of googling. And yup, LCD churns out more power displaying black, by a mere increase of 3.16% (average). Okay, I'm gonna change back into the whiter one. But blacked out apps are suitable and comfortable for night mode. Softer on the eyes. Peace
