MapView change colors

Question

Is there a way to change the colors used in a MapView? My app has very specific design in terms of used colors and uses different shades of grey, white and black and the MapView looks a bit odd. Is there a way to somehow change the colors it uses to display everything(roads, rivers, mountains etc.)?

In Google Maps you can use switch to different layouts like satellite http://wptrafficanalyzer.in/blog/android-google-map-switching-between-map-view-and-satellite-view/

But if you want to change a lot, e.g. using only darkgrey and white for ur mapView, u might replace your google MapView and use OSMdroid OpenstreetMapView instead. Functionalities are nearby the same (in compare with Google Maps V1 ). There you can override the onDraw method
