You mean the black or white background?
I be thinking about the same thing, but i dont think it would work
because that background color would work troughout the entire phone and aplications.
But thats just a thought.

On the different videos that I have seen of people testing the Kaiser (pre-production model), its the black version just like the HTC Touch. But again thats the default one, and you can always change it if need be.

The color of the interface is a theme. It can be changed regardless of what the default theme will be.

Hello, I am the newbie to use PPC, if I change the diamond wallpaper, the fonts of call history and calender will be difficult to read if the wallpaper is light color. Anybody know how to change the fonts color on that? Thanks!

At the moment the font colour for the TF3D cant be changed. If you really want to use your light color wallpaper you can consider installing Diamond TF3D config and use a different (theme) TF3D version which has a dark font colour easily. With this you can also roll-back to your original TF3D version as well.
You can find TF3D Config's thread as a sticky on the first page. The link to different themes page is also available inside.
Alternatively you can wait for the full version of the Manila editor to be released and hope it allows us to change font settings as well.

Thanks your help!
But the theme need 10MB-20MB rom to install, it's too much to affect the os speed. I may need to wait...

[Q] Change the blue text color in menus

I like the phone, but I dont like the blue color in all the menus. Is there an easy way to change this? I use launcher pro. If I pick another theme, will this change those colors? My phone is not rooted (and I would not like to root it )
Thanks in advance!

If you mean the subtitles you can for example find in Settings, Wifi, in all the explanations of each setting, the awful light blue, it's on all themes. I tried to change it but phone won't boot. Noejn is also looking at it, will be fixed.

[Q] wallpaper or background colors on ativ s using interop unlock?

Hey,
I have a Samsung ativ s and the only thing that I miss from android is the ability to use wallpapers.
is it possible through interop unlock or any any other way, to have wallpapers or at least choose from more than black or white for background colors for home screen and app list screen? Maybe somehow to be able to use the accent colors for background colors?
thanks

No wallpaper option (this is how lame WP is) but you can change the color via a reg edit.

There is a trhead called "Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking > Samsung ativ s - registry hacks" that explains everything superbly ... Watch it, read and enjoy.
Just one more question: When I log on to windows store, there are some beautiful wallpapers, that move as I swipe though screens.
Since some applications do have wallpapers,isn't there a way to assign a similar wallpaper to home screen and app list screen by using interop unlock (or any other way?)
Thanks
Short answer: no.
Long answer: NOOOOOOOOOOOO. Panorama backgrounds are a function of the app itself; we don't have any way to add that short of replacing the entire Start screen code.
thanks
