Ok, I almost have my phone setup like I want except for one annoying issue.
When I long press the home screen, them menu comes up. Widgets, Shortcuts, folders....under each section it is black background on black text. You can hardly read what it says. How do I change that text color?
thanks

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.
I want to change the menu, notification, and quick setting backgrounds to black. I have done that before with GB roms. Does anyone know how to change the text that goes with those to white? Thanks in advanced
I'm running stock GB update with no moods, unrooted. It seems as though ADW is having some glitches with my quick contacts. I have 8 of them set up on a homescreen in their smallest form 1x1. Sometimes when I run an app or the phone goes to sleep, when I look at the screen again the contacts icons are slightly enlarged with a grey bar along the bottom with two dark grey thumbnail like buttons. When I press the contact, instead of quick dialing like I have them set for, it brings up the copntact menu for text, email, or call. Anyone having this issue or know what the cause may be? Any help appreciated.

I'm pretty sure this is the wrong section since this is an app, not atrix specific
On the S6, when I swipe down from the top of the screen, the giant notification window shows up. This is marginally annoying normally since my home page background is 14% neutral gray, but EXTREMELY annoying at night when I'm reading on the tablet and accidentally cause the notifications to display... My bookreader is a dark-mode setup, and the notifications are blinding white when they display (yes, the screen brightness is about 10-12, but compared to the reader it's blinding)...
I've currently got the tablet in Night mode, which makes the giant notification thing black, so it's not as annoying, but it still keeps getting displayed 'cause of hand position and tablet orientation. And Night mode isn't great for "normal" use so I much prefer something that'll actually help with the notification display.
SO....
Is there a way, even if I have to use a different launcher (I'll need to know which one) to CHANGE the background color of the notification thing (and hopefully the navigation bar background)? I tried Nova Launcher, and it has things that SEEM like they should do something, but they don't change the huge white blob that appears when I swipe down.
Is there a way to CHANGE how notifications get displayed - turn OFF the swipe down from the top of the screen and use something else? If so, how do I set this up? "Do Not Disturb" mode doesn't seem to help.
Is there a way to COMPLETELY turn OFF notifications so swiping does nothing. I can't FIND anything in settings, but I figure I'm missing the "turn off notifications" switch.
I'm also interested in what answers may come. For me it's just about the color; even though I'm dark-themed everywhere using "Swift Installer - Themes & color engine", it doesn't theme the notification panel. Since the theme works everywhere else (even on system apps), this makes me think that 'notifications' is a special case, for some reason.
Curious to hear from others.
Have you tried QuickStar inside of GoodLock app from the Samsung Store? there are lots of mods you can do in there like change the color of the notification pull down.
Thanks. That works pretty well. I can change all the colors on the notification so at least the notification is a black background.
Status bar at the bottom is still bright but that's smaller than the big notification thing. Definitely makes me miss the old Android 6 thing where it just put a couple tiny icons at the top and I had to specifically hit them to see notifications. Never accidentally opened the notifications.
Is there any way to CHANGE the activation for the notifications so they DON'T show up when I don't want them to?
my quick setting buttons, my lock screen clock, my setting text colors change almost by the hour. its annoying. can i stop it? can i pick a color?
Yeah if you long press any empty space on the home screen it will bring up the settings called wallpaper and styles. I believe you want to the go to colors and select basic. And then choose the color you want. That should make them stay the same color.
But what wallpaper do you use or what setting do you have that makes it change by the hour? Just curious
