GSG 4 white settings menu - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys! I was just wondering if you can help me with this.
In the ads and demo versions of the SGS 4 the settings menu and the in call menu are white. Mine are blueish. Is this normal? I'm on stock XUAME2 and i really like the white one more. Does anybody know how to fix this?
Thank you!

Same here. Also in some videos the menu is white and mine is black. Don't know how to change it (if it's even possible)

U.S. variants are white dialer/white menu.
Dark/blue dialer/menu are the defaults per Samsung. They were altered because we Americans can't leave **** alone. It's possible to change it by flashing one of the US carrier ROMs on an i9505. I'm not familiar with any other method.

Hmmm... they should let people choose this. Black and white themes maybe like an option in display settings. Hope they do because I can't live without it either
Hmm... maybe changing the csc to us will work too... I'm going to try tomorrow

Banding on google screen is it normal ?

Love the fact that the s3 has no apparent banding on most screens however ive noticed on the google email creation page there is banding ... also where the same blue is used (mainly on email sign up pages) the same banding is there
Has anyone else got this ?
Every other page is crisp and no banding i just wonder more that worry why the google page has it ?
On my note a lot of pages have banding so im not that worried its a 1000% better

I was always under the impression that was actually the design of that background image.
Hello.
Try that...
It will fix your problem.
It will work to any rom you have.

It is a default ugly background that appears in some settings/apps. It is the wrong choice of background as it makes the amoled black look like lcd black if you don't know it is the background.

Are you sure this only happens on that specific page? For me, it happens on all pages with that background.

Weird blue tinge

Hey guys I don't know if there is something up with my device or this problem is standard, the thing is that my email app (not Gmail just email) and my stock browser have a weird blue tinge to them, when I switch back to some other programs or apps the colors come back to normal, the brightness on these two apps also reduce as compared to my normal settings, any help is appreciated, cheers

Those apps have their own power saving/brightness controls.
Check the settings menu when you are inside those apps. I know for sure the stock browser has its own display settings that are independent of the system settings.
Hey mate thanks for the reply, now I'm starting to get a bit worried because even before I tinkered around with anything the color changed back to its normal hue, not sure what exactly is going on

Is there a romantic for the i9505 that has this configuration?

Its a amoled display so its black to save battery,
I read somewhere that it was white on first firmware because sammy did't know which kind of display they would use,either lcd or amoled

It can be done yes, you need to theme the background white and change the primary/sub xml files to white text.
Dont 'spose you have a flashable zip? I much prefer the Note 8.0 menus
Or use another launcher instead of TW to change the background to whatever you want it to be.

A launcher won't help. We're talking about menus and things like the dialer app here.

Guess I cannot ask you to teach me stuff (changing the background), but may be a suggestion to browse some forums, perhaps?
I think he mean this.
I know the first dump file (I9500XXUAMC6), has the light grey settings menu.
Yes. When did Samsung decide to chsnge it. In fact I have similar settings background on my S3 as well. Any way to get this back on S4?

That's no good as it changes the colours of the notification bar, icons, etc too.

Only some S4 markets get the white background. I believe T mobile USA for example. International units are black.

There is a thread in note 1 n7000 on how to change background for contact/messaging/setting/my files.
That's for jb4.1.2. Might not be the same with 4.2.2. It's your phone so you decide.

Holo Launcher HD Folder Question

When I open up a folder that has several icons from the so called desktop view, it has now been white for about a month (give or take). It used to be black and I have tried to change it but no such luck. I've looked online and even emailed the dev but no response back. I have poked around in launcher settings and tried various settings but no luck there either. Can anyone please tell me where the setting is or how to change it back to black. I would be so greatfull I have attached screen shots.

I'd love to know how to switch it back to black as well. The new white backgrounds are awful.
I know it is an old topic, but have someone find the solution ?
Thx.

Nice is the boot loader locked? And another q. Deciding between HtcOne and the S5 right now. Did they keep touchwiz as mostly blue background dialog boxes and titlebars? Also is there a working built in flashlight widget or toggle?
Thanks I love the One but I know Samsung in and out like nothing else so leaning towards the s5 but not loving the the blue /green look. Thanks

It's blue and green, but more of a modern UI. I'm on a GS5 ROM and can send you some screening of the notification center later?
