I need help to change the tap to speak screen in messaging from a now white to a no color at all. Don't know what changed that particular window, but can only see the tap to speak button. How do I reset it

Thanks

Similar problem here, with droid maxx.  The voice input screen is washed out (almost white) and I can barely see the buttons.  Just started happening a few days ago.

How very strange that this just started. Any new software updates on either the phone itself or the Messaging app you are using? Have you restarted the phone to see if the tap to speak is easier to see?

Yes I rebooted the phone.  I do not want to factory reset.  It is not the messaging app.  Everytime I use voice recognition the pop-up panel is almost white where if used to be black.  The buttons in the panel are amost impossible to see, but still work.  It's annoying, but not "broken".

Surprise!  ... That actually worked.  It reverted back to the old interface with just a big  keyboard  icon, which is nice and obvious, instead of multiple, tiny "x" buttons which were unclear.  Thank you.  I'll avoid upgrading the Google App.
