Text colors showing on emulator but not phone

Issue

I have a resource file containing colors which I reference from my layout file to set text color. The text is set to the assigned colors on my emulator, but the text is all set to black on my phone.

colors.xml

<resources>
    <color name="myColor1">#eaf0a4</color>
    <color name="myColor2">#1643a4</color>
</resources>

activity_myActivity.xml (layout)

<RelativeLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:id="@+id/myActivityID"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_marginLeft="0dp"
    android:layout_marginRight="0dp"
    android:layout_marginTop="0dp"
    android:layout_marginBottom="0dp"
    android:background="@android:color/white" >

    <View
        android:background="@android:color/white"
        android:clickable="true"
        android:elevation="2dp"
        android:id="@+id/whiteBackground"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_width="match_parent" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/text1"
        android:elevation="4dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="2dp"
        android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
        android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
        android:layout_height="60dp"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:text="Hello world!"
        android:textAlignment="center"
        android:textColor="@color/myColor1"
        android:textSize="12sp" />

    <Button
        android:background="@android:color/white"
        android:id="@+id/button1"
        android:layout_below="@+id/myText1"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:text="Click me!"
        android:textAllCaps="false"
        android:textColor="@color/myColor2"
        android:textSize="10sp" />

</RelativeLayout>

Does anyone understand why text is set to the right colors on my emulator, but the text is all set to black on my phone?

Solution

On your phone, Go to Settings > Accessibility and switch off the High Contrast Text. It will solve the issue.
