[Q] What has caused my icons to change colour?

Can someone please explain why a lot of my icons have turned from radioactive green to a more mustard sort of colour? Icons in question include the ones in the notification "power bar", all check-boxes throughout the system and all the status icons in gtalk to name a few.
SGS2 is completely stock, haven't modded anything at all yet.
See the attached pic. All the icons used to be bright green like the GPS one but after turning them off and then back on again they are now the colour of the sound and auto-rotate icons. If I were to press GPS to turn it off and then turn it back on again it would be the same colour as the other two.
Probably a simple answer but I haven't encountered this in all my years of using Android.
Well the murky green colour spread to my battery status icon as well so I decided to reboot and now all my greens are back to the correct shade. Very weird.

Changing color of notification bar?

Is this possible? I get a notification from MSNBC for example, you see the icon but can't read it as both are black.

Status Bar

I have this icon in the status bar that I have no idea what it is. It's purple, square and looks like 2 sideways z in the box. It right next to the wifi signal icon. Attached is a screenshot. Anyone have any ideas?

That's the notification for NFC
Sent from my LG-LS990 using XDA Free mobile app
Turn off NFC in settings and it goes away. It's defaulted to on.

Grey tint on top of Black Wallpapers!!??

Let me explain the issue. Whenever I apply a pure black wallpaper, it appears to be grey near the notification bar. I know this may be done intentionally by Samsung to make the notification icons more clear. But this tinting is not necessary when you have a black wallpaper. This shadowing is fine when using other wallpapers but really bugs me out when I see this on a black wallpaper.
Do you experience this too? If so, has someone found a solution to this?
Bump. Any info on a fix?

A temporary solution is to use Good Lock by SAMSUNG. You can disable Status bar dim background.
I have the same problem there is a grey tint around the notification bar or perhaps, is this a normal thing?
I've been using a black live wallpaper and its removed the tint from the homeacreen. I didn't have it on the lock screen. I'm rooted now so I'll see if there's a way to disable that tint via root.

Gesture bar colour

Hey, is there a way to make the gesture bar (the one on the bottom) colour different to match notification bar? Or since I'm using dark theme to make the bar dark?
Most of the time gesture bar appears white, like the screenshot I upload right here for example
When open keyboard it's back to normal, merges colours with the rest of the screen

Just remove it ?
+1 to this. Having the gesture bar background match the notification bar colour would be great
Try "Navbar Apps", "Navbar Tools" or similar apps on Play Store.
It's coming I think. A black bar was included in OP7 Beta 5, so maybe next stable?
I actually just remove it from the screen, in settings. Got used to it, how it works, it's something!
