How do I change the textColorPrimary in a theme?

Question

I\'m changing the theme of an activity in onCreate using setTheme (I\'m doing that even before calling super.onCreate(), as this is supposed to be more reliable).

It doe

Turns out I was barking up the wrong tree. Overriding the colors and everything worked just fine. However, by defining android:background in my theme, everything just completely messed up, and all text appeared white, despite me overriding all colors (including textColorPrimary). Omitting android:background did the trick.
