Changing Background Color of Windows Phone 8 Application

Question

I'm trying to change the background color of my Windows Phone application pages using the following code

(App.Current.Resources["PhoneAccentBrush"] as SolidColorBrush).Color = Colors.Red;    //For Changing the Accent Color
(App.Current.Resources["PhoneBackgroundBrush"] as SolidColorBrush).Color = Colors.White; //For Changing the Backgroung Color

The Accent color of the application is getting changed successfully, but my app background color is not getting changed. Please helm me with this?

In App.xaml.cs, in the method InitializePhoneApplication, try changing the RootFrame object Background Property to the color you want.
