I'm having difficulty getting my colorscheme to change. I've opened both ~/.vimrc and /usr/share/vim/vimrc and added:
colorscheme desert
...and nothing. I noticed the color schemes are here:
/usr/share/vim/vim72/colors/desert.vim (...along with a bunch or others)
which seems like the wrong place so I:
cp /usr/share/vim/vim72/colors/desert.vim ~/.vim/colors/
and still no go.

After typing the command, press “Tab”. This will open a list of all the available color schemes. If you keep pressing “Tab”, Vim will cycle through all of them.
You can change color schemes at anytime in vi by typing colorscheme followed by a space and the name of the color scheme. For more color schemes, you can browse this library on the vim website. You can enable or disable colors by simply typing "syntax on" or "syntax off" in vi.
You can put the color scheme file into ~/. config/nvim/colors f older. Where ~ is your user home directory.
Try setting your terminal colours in your .bashrc/.bash_profile to:
export TERM=xterm-256color
& in your .vimrc
let g:"your_colourscheme"_termcolors=256
& that should stick. Bit of a kludge I know but it should work.
Saves typing
:colorscheme whatever everytime you start Vim
