Is it possible to change title font color in an application tile image on Windows Phone 7.1?

Is it possible to change title font color in an application tile image on Windows Phone 7.1, if so, how? For example, let's say I'm developing an application with the tile shown below, (how) can I change color of "Fake GSM Network" below to black.

enter image description here

You can't directly change the font color but you could set the Title property of the Tile to an empty string and put the text directly on the Image that you use as a Tile, with the font color that you want.

To do that, edit your WMAppManifest.xml file and edit the Title element:

    ...

          <BackgroundImageURI IsRelative="true" IsResource="false">Background.png</BackgroundImageURI>
          <Count>0</Count>
          <Title></Title> <-- This is the element you need to leave blank
        </TemplateType5>
      </PrimaryToken>
    </Tokens>
  </App>
</Deployment>

User can change accent color in phone settings, but it will change all tiles.

You can't change a color of only one tile. You can make your application tile color static by replacing transparent background with solid one. You can't do that for applications you don't own.

You also can't change text font/color. It's always white.
