Looking at the chapter headings it is black.. and the upgrade progress bar was also black as well.. but everything else including fonts (whether bolded or otherwise) tend to be a lower contrast dark grey compared to black.

Is this a software thing? I'd like for it to not use greyscale shading for text if that's what is happening..

To give an example, go to the "about" screen of your device.

Where it says "All rights reserved", that's black. So is the top of the coffee cup. But everything else is a lighter grey.. which reminds me a lot of what it looks like when you try to print coloured text on a black and white laser printer..
