Nokia Lumia 1020 Live Tile's Background Colour.

Anonymous
Not applicable
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.

Thank you @captainprice.

I'll give it a go.

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