I would use the mechanism posted earlier to add your own bitmap-icons since it's way more flexible than to rely on the built-in resources:

You could use an icon generator like this one to create a few icons with the correct colors. The color of an inactive tile seems to be ~#687074.

Hello Martin,

Does create a quicksettings tile work on Android 5.1.1?
I can't seem to get it to work anymore.

Hi,

A quick test works on a Nexus 5 with Android 5.1.1.
Are you using a Nexus device? Do you get an error in your flow or does the tile simply not appear?

Regards,
Martin

Hi,
I don't get an error they just don't appear. And yes I have a Nexus 5.
I will attach the flow i'm using maybe you can try them and see what I did wrong. The worked on previous version of Android and automatic.

Hi,

Action Set System Setting looks suspicious. The value should be set to default,intent(automagic.TILE_1),intent(automagic.TILE_2).
You've probably changed the value to default to remove the custom tile(s).

Regards,
Martin

Just figured out how to get the qs tiles working on the M preview 3.
They just won't stick after a reboot.
