List Arrows on Dark Background - How to alter this color?

I have a list that is on a dark background - I have manage to change all attributes so the text, list frame, etc.. are white, but the little arrows on the right are still black and cannot be seen. I have tried all settings but cannot see a way to adjust these arrows so they are white? Any guidance on this?

the arrows are images Look for this folder > yourapp > res > drawable you can all the icons in there by replacing them making sure you keep the icon/image name

i assume you were using the androoid v1.4. Not sure for the v1.5. when you download the yourapp.zip from buzztouch and un-zip it, it creates the folder structure as below folders created: ...> yourapp ......> re .........> drawable

The easiest way around this is to set the list arrow option to 'none' in the settings for each specific menu item. (might be a theme setting to do them all at once?, can't remember) Otherwise you'll need to do some coding. The drawback being that Apple is really uptight about people messing with their interface design. Could lead to an app rejection, but who knows, give it a try. If they reject it, you can just go back and change it. For reference to what you'll need to code see: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/403748/how-can-i-customize-the-accessory-disclosure-image-in-a-uitableviewcell The 'something' in the example code will be an image name in your xcode project.

Thanks - I did the arrow option to none, and it looks much better. Submitted the app yesterday so will see how it goes, fingers crossed!
