How can I change default toast message color and background color in android?

Question

I want to create a toast message with background color is white and message color is black. My toast message is:

Toast.makeText(Logpage.this, "Please Give Feedback...", 3000).show();

I wanted to create it in another method not in onCreate().

You can create the custom toast message like below :

Toast toast = new Toast(context);
toast.setDuration(Toast.LENGTH_LONG);

LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE); 
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.your_custom_layout, null);
toast.setView(view);
toast.show();

One textview you can put inside the layout file and give the background and textcolor as you want.

Also you can do the following which won't need the extra custom layout file :

Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, R.string.string_message_id, Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
View view = toast.getView();
view.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.custom_background);
TextView text = (TextView) view.findViewById(android.R.id.message);
/*Here you can do anything with above textview like text.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#000000"));*/
text.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#000000"));
toast.show();

Change Toast Colours without any additional Layouts, 2018

This is a very easy way I've found of changing the colour of the actual image background of the Toast as well as the text colour, it doesn't require any additional layouts or any XML changes:

Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, message, duration);
View view = toast.getView();

//Gets the actual oval background of the Toast then sets the colour filter
view.getBackground().setColorFilter(YOUR_BACKGROUND_COLOUR, PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN);

//Gets the TextView from the Toast so it can be editted
TextView text = view.findViewById(android.R.id.message);
text.setTextColor(YOUR_TEXT_COLOUR);

toast.show();
