Change Toast Colours without any additional Layouts, 2018

This is a very easy way I've found of changing the colour of the actual image background of the Toast as well as the text colour, it doesn't require any additional layouts or any XML changes:

Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, message, duration);
View view = toast.getView();

//Gets the actual oval background of the Toast then sets the colour filter
view.getBackground().setColorFilter(YOUR_BACKGROUND_COLOUR, PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN);

//Gets the TextView from the Toast so it can be editted
TextView text = view.findViewById(android.R.id.message);
text.setTextColor(YOUR_TEXT_COLOUR);

toast.show();

Adding to @AndroidKiller's answer, you can also set the gravity and a custom TextView among other things like so:

Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, context.getResources().getString(resID), Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
LayoutInflater li = (LayoutInflater) context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE );        
View toastView = li.inflate(R.layout.toast_hint_layout, null);
TextView text = (TextView) toastView.findViewById(R.id.hint_text_tv);
text.setText(resID);
toast.setView(toastView);
toast.setDuration(Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
toast.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER, 0, 0);
toastView.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.toast_9_patch);          
toast.show();

Note, your background drawable should be a nine-patch PNG

You can even put an ImageView, and multiple TextViews in with XML like this:

<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/layout_root"
              xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
              android:layout_width="wrap_content"
              android:layout_height="wrap_content"
              android:orientation="horizontal">
    <ImageView
        android:layout_width="32dp"
        android:layout_height="43dp"
        android:src="@drawable/lightbulb"
        />
    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        >
        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/hint_text_tv"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:textColor="#ccc"
            android:textSize="14dp"
            />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/hint_text_tv"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="(disable hints in preferences)"
            android:textColor="#555"
            android:textSize="11dp"
            />
    </LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
