I'm confused about EditText in designer

When i add 'Edittext' to my application via designer and run it the background of the textbox is black but when i run other eg source its white?

I need a white input text box!!

Am i missing something???

You can use colordrawabe like this. It will give you a white background. You can modify the radius:
B4X:
Dim cd As ColorDrawable
cd.Initialize(Colors.White,10)
txtTest.TextColor=Colors.Red
txtTest.Text="Bishmedia"
txtTest.Background=cd

You may want to check your manifest editor ( Project, Manifest Editor) for this line and compare it for both applications and use the old style for the new one you do not like:
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="4" android:targetSdkVersion="10"/>
