Inverted background color - HD7 General

I know nothing of how to do this. Just thought it would be really cool to have other colors for the background and tiles. Maybe make like the background red and the tiles black. Just something like that. I have no clue what you developers have in the works but that seems pretty cool to me. Keep up the good work guys and gals.
Thanks

Phone background as of the launch devices can only have 2 background colors White or black. the reason for this are just visibility. For lcd screens the white background works best, for amoled displays the black backgrounds work best as the titles seem to look like they float on top of the device not to mention better battery power consumption.
Now in regard to tiles, it all depends on the developer. Like for me i made a standard icon with a transparent background this allows the app to use the phone themes as its color background for my tiles. But as i said for tiles it all depends on what the developer wants, not to mention some companies have a color scheme and will want to use that for their tiles and icons.

[Q] Why is the color picker on android so useless?

I tried to change the bar color on cyanogenmod 6.1 RC1 I wanted to have a nice dark orange bar but.... it's impossible. It's impossible to choose orange to begin with because the color wheel goes from red to black to white then to yellow. This doesn't make any sense! And you can't choose the brightness of the color just the alpha.
Why the color picker has to be so useless? Can it be replaced with something more useful like RGB sliders or even better HSL sliders?
Unfortunately I'm not a programmer so I can't tell if it's doable or not.

Its crap!
One of the older trackball alert style apps had a grid that was much better, but I can't remember which it was now...

[Q] Theme Color Help

So I made just a simple theme for ADW, when I load it though all the themed icons look great, but the unthemed icons have really weird colorings. I know I didn't touch any of the icon color settings while making it because I'm color blind (Green-red, blue-brown) and wouldn't of been able to judge the colors correctly, so is there anything I may of overlooked?

tile colors? Newb here

Is it possible to change the downloaded tile colors to the same color scheme you have the phone set to? such as i have my 620 set to green but the twitter and facebook app are blue. Is this possible? coming from android so kind of lost
App tiles are only set to your selected accent color if the app developer made the tile backgrounds transparent. For apps which have a "standard" color, such as Twitter's light blue, that will usually not be the case. It's purely up to the developer, though.
With interop-unlock, it should become possible to replace those icons with other ones... it's not going to be trivial, though.
afaik, this app should allow you to do so:

I have not tried, though as I like the occasional splash of color on the screen.

5.1 LP - change notifications panel text color?

Hey,
Im looking for an option to change one or several of the following options:
- change quick settings font color in notification panel
- change font color of app notifications
- set background color for app notifications only, not quick settings background
take a look at this screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/KnWq2s1.png
I want to keep the blurred style with 100% transparency for the quick settings background. But the black text from app notifications is hard to read sometimes, so I would like to change that to white. If that's not possible, make quick settings font black as well. If that's not possible, add a white background to app notifications only.
I can't find anything how to do that. Hope somebody can help me out.
edit: SOLVED
wow, after searching for hours with no result, I found something shortly after I made this thread. I used this to achieve this
so you used this to change the background of the notifications from white to match your selected notification background? I have been trying to figure out how to make the notification background not white...

Well, yeah, I changed the notification background color with LPThemer, but that's not what this post was about and I did it because of another reason. I was just looking for something that allows me to change text color of notifications, because the default black looks ****ty with transparency. It's default black because the default background is white. I used Blurred System UI to make the background transparent as well as add the blurred effect. Then I used LPThemer to change notification text color to white. Then I noticed notifications background was still white (not transparent) in Lock Screen, but the text color remained white. It's hard to read white on white so I used LPThemer to change the background to a half-transparent black. This background is only displayed in lock screen though.

Sweet I think I'm going to do almost the exact thing you did because I can't stand the white background on notifications blinding me at night... Plus it just looks bad. Good to know I can change the font to color to something legible. Good job
Help me

Question Notifications always on screen

The colored notification icons on the always on screen are quite hard to see. The dark red Gmail icon for example barely stands out. Does anyone know if it's possible to show the all white icons here just as on the lock screen?
I use Holey Light which working great. The app has large icons with your own color definitiion and saves battery because AOD is managed.
