It does colourize, but less intrusive than Flymake by default. Customise the flycheck-error, flycheck-warning and flycheck-info faces to change the colouring. There is no package that changes his Flycheck highlights errors. > I am worried a bit ELPA's compilation of the package. There was an > error that it was unable to activate package "f".

See https://github.com/flycheck/flycheck/pull/372#issuecomment-39475673 for details and a fix. The issue is fixed in upcoming Emacs 24.4 It's just a minor nuisance, though, and does not adversely affect Flycheck. Also note that Flycheck has comprehensive documentation available at http://flycheck.rtfd.org/ which includes installation and setup instructions. Please take the time to read it.
