I just bough the official dock and it arrived the other day. I have noticed that after a timed period there is a screen saver displayed with the time, arlarm and date.
It is in a horrible green colour. is there any way to change the colour of it? i want it like a blue colour to go with my ICS theme
Are you running on stock 2.3.4? Try changing it under SE's default themes.Hope that helps.

In super amoled light background doesn't really affect the battery.
Other than your really conscious about the battery life i suggest turning off the LV wallpaper and replacing it with black.

Actually it's been proven otherwise back in November.
Black vs White background at different brightness levels:

Look forward to you comparison!
Don't surrender to colors!
Amoled works almost the same as plasma. Each pixel illuminates.

And brighter images use more power. Sucks manufacturers are limiting power consumption on plasmas by reducing power on bright images.

Umm yeah, welcome to 2009. We all know black colors use less power than white on amoled screens.

^seriously.
Also, who spends so much time looking at their wallpaper (especially a boring, solid color) to notice any difference?
I put black wallpaper I got those ugly black spots in the screen. blah
I used to use a black wallpaper because hey, why not, save on the battery, right?
Then I thought about how often my phone is actually displaying my wallpaper and decided it's a trivial matter. It's only ever a few seconds before I tap on something on my homescreen and it goes away. If I was constantly reading info off of widgets, at length, I'd care about it more.
These days I just load up whatever picture I think I'd like to see every now and then. Although I did like the clear contrast of pure black vs the icons etc.
Edit: Also the test linked to in one of the first replies, worth noting that Minimum brightness, white image is only slightly worse than the black results. Brightness matters more than color. Dial it down and look at whatever colors you like best.
Pssst...download no wallpaper app from market. Its a true no wallpaper display.

I've never used anything other than black on any mobile I've ever used.
I use a solid black wallpaper, but not to save battery. I just like the way it looks.

For me black wallpaper does matter coz if i open my phone its like 2 seconds before i launch and app leaving the home screen. ^o^

I suggest you themes with inverted apps like mine if you really wanna save something, a wallpaper does not saves that much

Doesn't this happen due to a low res not pure black image being used?
I never had that issue, so unless something is wrong with your display I suggest trying a different image

I am looking at getting rid of the color on the lockscreen, so would like to change the icons on the stock lockscreen. I would guess I need to drop a PNG file in somewhere, just no clue where. Can someone help out or let me know an easier way? Thanks. PS I am Running Jedi XP12
The icons in the lock screen are dependent on the apps you have set up. So, for instance, if you want to change the messaging icon you will need to change the icon in the SecMms.apk. Using 7zip, you can navigate to the icon. They are usually found in the mipmap folder and banned something like ic_launcher_mms.
Hope that helps
As for the color on the lock screen, not sure what you mean there.

Thanks, will give it a go. By color I mean I like black and white so the color icons need to go.
Black and white huh? Would be sweet if there were a tw rom that was black and white.

LOL, was on it, And will be back as soon as the home button issue is resolved. It was happening to me more than just from the app draw. Small issue that would not bother a lot of people, but I constantly use it.
Hello.
Is there any way to change background from white to black or any other colour on app list window?
Mike
Would be nice (especially for amoled) but not possible in stock rom.

Pretty much. Funny fact, it used be black, don't remember Android version, and then Google designers decided to switch to white.
