changing bkg color

I'm trying to change the background color of my roku app.

I added the following line into the appMAIN.brs

Sub initTheme()
...
theme.BackgroundColor = #EBEBEB

app.SetTheme(theme)

End Sub


After running 'make' to zip the file when I try to side load it onto my roku I get the following error.
"Install Failure: Compilation Failed."

Where should I place the background color specification?

Thanks

Re: changing bkg color

The BackgroundColor value is a string so it must be in quotes:


theme.BackgroundColor = "#EBEBEB"
