Is there a way to get the settings menu, quick settings, notification panel pure black and not grey? Seems whichever wallpaper I set (even solid black) it's not adhering to it...
Might have to wait until substratum can be used if not!
The irony of their colour scheme was not lost on me. I think they did this for a bit of retro feel so it looks like an LCD panel.
Come on Google, I know your designers are probably just 12 years old, but surely there are still some older people there that remember the light bleed issues of LCD displays of old, and that OLED was sold on being able to produce real blacks.
I just want pure black
Oh well, root will soon be amongst us I'm sure
I'm trying to find a wallpaper that is as black as possible, so the system themes it accordingly. But also one that doesn't have a tint to everything... Any recommendations? I just want notification panel etc to be black if possible but also for buttons ect to be a plain colour without a warm'ish tint to them...especially text, like I want that to be white whereas seems the system is adding a tint?

Hi.
As mentioned in the title I have difficulties in using all the beautiful looking black themes in bright sunlight. Therefore I have been looking for some good looking themes with black text on a white (or bright) background, that is easy to use during daytime.
But searching the forum did not find any - therefore I would like to ask you if you know such a theme?
Thanks

You can use any PC theme maker application, create a white background based theme & customise it to your extent(the way you like).
You may face a problem of the taskbar & navigation's colour not changing - for this you can use 'UITweaker'.
I have been using Rick's V21 ROM with the RED Sliding Panels home screen layout for a few weeks now.
I love the functionality, and the look of it. However, as the days have gotten sunnier here (Ireland doesn't get that much sun ) I have found it increasingly more difficult to read the screen when out and about.
What home screen/colour combinations have people found to be the most outdoor friendly ?
Im not saying this is the gospel, but i think it would be very dark backgrounds with light colored fonts. It should make it the text stand out more and not get washed out with the sunlight, since you are using dark backgrounds/ and dark menu bars
I've been looking for apps that can apply filters to the color of what's being rendered on screen, I've found two apps so far. One is exclusive for samsung galaxy devices and the other is Chainfire 3D, which doesn't work on ICS. I was wondering if anyone knows of any apps or custom roms that can achieve this effect, basically make the screen even darker than usual by only displaying everything in one color. I know this is used for some OLED screens to save battery life, but it would be great for me in low light environments.
There's an app called Screen Filter but I'm not sure if you have the option to change the color.
Hi is there any way to change the colors around the UI? I really, really, really, hate the cyan and blue gray colors found around the UI. It's too distracting and does not fit into the overall aesthetics of the the phone.
Accessability

I don't know of any way to select the colors hopefully this will come with new roms however you can affect the Hew of them in the accessibility options, this is limiting as it affects the entire screen but a slight move in the right direction could do it.
Accessibility > color adjustment> move around the screen image.
If you find one that works please let me know
Thanks
Just wondering if I can update the color of the stock keyboard without rooting. My screen is a bit uneven in color and lighting, and it's resulting in the keyboard looking more blueish grey on the left side when in landscape. It's sort of bugging me. I'm using as much dark color as I can on this thing, but it uses so much white and light colors. Much more than my S3 did.
I would just download a different keyboard from the play store, they have lots of colors themes ect....
That is the great thing about Android there is so many third party apps that if you don't like stock you can completely change it. I use touch pal keyboard very customizeable: size, color/theme, language, etc...
