However, setting windowTranslucentStatus does achieve one thing that changing statusBarColor to transparent does not: … Read more
I’m not sure I understand the problem. I you want to change the status bar color programmatically (and provided the device has Android 5.0) then you can use Window.setStatusBarColor(). It shouldn’t make a difference whether the activity is derived from Activity or ActionBarActivity. Just try doing: if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) { Window window = getWindow(); … Read more
Yes it’s possible to change it to gray (no custom colors) but this only works from API 23 and above you only need to add this in your values-v23/styles.xml <item name=”android:windowLightStatusBar”>true</item>
Themes are immutable, you can’t.

A very simplified version of RecyclerView has: void onItemsInsertedOrRemoved() { if (hasFixedSize) layoutChildren(); else requestLayout(); } This link describes why calling requestLayout might be expensive. Basically whenever items are inserted, moved or removed the size (width and height) of RecyclerView might change and in turn the size of any other view in view hierarchy might … Read more
Update: Solution: use the windowActionModeOverlay property. Set this in your theme: <item name=”windowActionModeOverlay”>true</item> and the actionmode will be shown over the action bar instead of pushing it down. (If you’re not using the latest AppCompat then you need to add the “android:” prefix to the property). It basically lets AppCompat know that you have a … Read more
It can be done inside styles.xml using <item name=”android:navigationBarColor”>@color/theme_color</item> or window.setNavigationBarColor(@ColorInt int color) http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/Window.html#setNavigationBarColor(int) Note that the method was introduced in Android Lollipop and won’t work on API version < 21.
