background-color: #FFFFFF;
border-bottom-width: 0px;
}
.navbar.navbar-default .navbar-nav {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
.navbar.navbar-default .navbar-nav>li>a {
color: #323232;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-weight: 700;
letter-spacing: 1px;
}
.navbar.navbar-default .navbar-nav>li>a:hover,
.navbar.navbar-default .navbar-nav>li>a:focus {
color: #50A0FF;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}

Answer 1

You are already doing that in your example. The problem is you are adding a while #ffffff background. Just change it to a different one.
This is your class sample
.navbar-default .navbar-nav>.active>a,
.navbar-default .navbar-nav>.active>a:hover,
.navbar-default .navbar-nav>.active>a:focus {
color: #50A0FF;
background-color: #FFFFFF; // change this to some color other than white
}
you also need to add this style in your style.css
.navbar-default .navbar-nav>.active>a, .navbar-default .navbar-nav>.open>a {
background-image: initial;
}
/* MAIN SITE NAVIGATION */
.navbar-default {
font-size: 14px;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
border-bottom-width: 0px;
}
.navbar-default .navbar-nav{
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
.navbar-default .navbar-nav>li>a {
color: #323232;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-weight: 700;
letter-spacing: 1px;
}
.navbar-default .navbar-nav>li>a:hover,
.navbar-default .navbar-nav>li>a:focus {
color: #50A0FF;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
.navbar-default .navbar-nav>.active>a,
.navbar-default .navbar-nav>.active>a:hover,
.navbar-default .navbar-nav>.active>a:focus {
color: #ffffff;
background-color: #000000;
}
.navbar-default .navbar-nav li .active {
background-color: red !important;
}
<nav class="navbar navbar-default navbar-static-top">
<div class="container">
<div class="navbar-header">
<button type="button" class="navbar-toggle collapsed" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbar" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="navbar">
<span class="sr-only">Pokaż MENU</span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
</button>
</div>
<div id="navbar" class="navbar-collapse collapse">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li class="active">Home</li>
<li>About</li>
<li>Contact</li>
<li class="dropdown">
Dropdown <span class="caret"></span>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>Action</li>
<li>Another action</li>
<li>Something else here</li>
<li role="separator" class="divider"></li>
<li class="dropdown-header">Nav header</li>
<li>Separated link</li>
<li>One more separated link</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div><!--/.nav-collapse -->
</div>
</nav>

Answer 2

background-color: #ebebeb !important;
display:block;
}
