Nokia Lumia 1020 Live Tile's Background Colour.

Anonymous — Mon, 19 May 2014 06:43:27 GMT

Hi.

I am currently reviewing the Nokia Lumia 1020 Windows phone ,and after modding the settings to suit my needs my attention has been drawn to the colour of the Live Tiles on the home screen.

I'm not keen on the rainbow of colours in the phones theme section ,and after using the Steel option I'd like to use Black, which unfortunately does not seem to be an available colour option.

Question: Does anyone have knowledge on how to add it.

Bob you could try this settings:ease of access then turn high contrast on,I don't think there is a actual black option

Thank you @captainprice.

I'll give it a go.

I was hoping maybe the colour could be introduced by a PC suite etc. 😞
