    Post Update: Home screen colors drastically different than depending on background


    Good afternoon all, Since the update yesterday on 2/6, the colors on my xbox have been changed and in all honesty look disgusting. I typically use the middle orange color as my icons and such. Since then they now appear to be a chocolate brown color. I
    have experimented with various things to see how this changes, and here are the results. Background: custom image. Colors: orange. Result: chocolate brown icons, no transparency. Background: achievement art. Colors: darker blue. Result: am even darker blue
    with transparency. Background: achievement art. Colors: orange. Result: chocolate brown with transparency. Background: solid color (doesn't matter which). Colors: orange. Result: the colors are correctly orange. Also, the orange is pretty much the same on
    my custom background as my xbox colors (Flyers fan) but the console changes the orange in the picture to be darker also. I've done the console reset method of holding in the power button, and have even disconnected power for several minutes however this did
    not resolve the issue. Please help! Thanks!

    :)

  2. BOOM (November Update)

    Regarding the background part of the update, they moved the ability to change your tile color to a new section under settings called "My Xbox" which is located on the bottom left of the screen. This is also where you can go to declare your "Home Xbox" as
    well as choose a system-specific color for your background (basically the same colors you can choose for your tiles + black) instead of an actual image. Due to the new background changes, they've also changed how you can interact with achievements if you go
    into the achievements app (full-screen) and look at them individually - the whole menu looks different.

    The whole profile update looks awesome too, but I've noticed that the "motto" from the Xbox 360 is noticeably absent.

    How do you change theme colour?

    [quote user="NanoTechSoldier"]You must be thinking of the Original NXE Dashboard, where you could change theme colours etc..[/quote]The NXE never offered any Feature to change any Colors. OP, the "grey blob" changes depending
    on what Theme is being Used (most Premium Themes have different colors). Note though- all .jpg Files Used as a Custom Background will always show as the "grey blob".

    Xbox One Dashboard background

    In order to change your background, follow these steps:

    On your home screen go left and select Settings > All settings > Personalization > My color and background.

    Here you can change the color of the tiles and background.

    If you want a solid blue color, just select it by scrolling right.

    This should fix it! :)

    Edit: Does it change when you select a different color?

    Home screen

    You can personalize the Home Screen but there is no way it will only show your background or a single color. Sorry.

    Custom Themes

    Hi I Am Ultron 5,

    Do you mean the home screen on your Xbox console? It works differently on the 360 and the One. The themes that were available on the 360 aren't available for the One. On the One at this time, you can change the background color through the Settings menu.
