Bug Description

REQUIREMENTS: Have a sim provider that announces your balance via service message (In the uk giffgaff on payg does this)
STEPS:
1. Flash the phone with the latest image
2. Send a message
3. Get an announcement

EXPECTED:
I expect the message to be easily readable in all lights and circumstances

ACTUAL:
It looks like cool grey text on light grey background this make it fairly hard to read on a device.

Marcus I was recommended to assign this to you for spreading amongst the design team, the issue is the notification at the top the ping is just a message I sent to trigger the balance notification.

Dialog design spec needs to be updated. The new shadow element we are still waiting to be finalised to help solve the white on white issue. As for the text, we need to update the design spec with the latest palette values.
