Menu color, system tray colors after SW update

[Vaclav]

Hello everyone,

few days ago i bought the Xperia M dual, I liked it in the shop. But when i connected it to the internet, immediatelly SW update was offered, so i updated the phone via Companion. Now i do not like to phone at all, because the menus have ugly grey background and the text is black. Before it was black background, white text. Also for example in the system tray there are symbols for the 2 SIM cards, these were coloured before, now they are grey, everything is grey. I would expect the Skype icon in the system tray to be green when online... Like in my old HTC Desire. Is there some way how to revert this back? I havent found any way. Please see below the screenshot of the about phone menu.

Thank you.

You can download the old firmware here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2697277 It shows you how to flash it too.

Personally, I think 4.3 is a bad update. Beyond the cosmetic differences, it actually removes some functionality as well, so I think keeping 4.2.2 is the best version for me.
