title: #appcelerator textfield color and background color not sticking
body: <p>I use the code below for a textfield in my project:</p>
  
  <p><div class="snippet" data-lang="js" data-hide="false">
  <div class="snippet-code">
  <pre class="snippet-code-js lang-js prettyprint-override"><code> var textfield = Ti.UI.createTextField({
    color: 'black',
    height: '40dp',
    top: '5dp',
    left: '5dp',
    right: '50dp',
    style: Ti.UI.INPUT_BORDERSTYLE_ROUNDED,
    hintText: 'Enter an address',
    backgroundColor: '#aaa',
    paddingLeft: '5dp'
   });</code></pre>
  </div>
  </div>
  </p>
  
  <p>This works on my iOS simulator and iOS devices, but not on android. I can change the color (font color) and backgroundColor on iOS and my UI will change to my desired hex color. On android, the text and background are always white, no matter what I do. On iOS I can see my hint text but on android, that is also white.</p>
  
  <p>I feel like I'm missing something simple, but I can't figure it out. </p>
