Android Lollipop Set Status Bar Text Color

Question

I\'m trying to set the status bar text color in Android v21, but I\'m not seeing an API method for it. Here\'s what I have so far for the background

MyActivity.java

Answer 1

My preferred solution until now

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {  
    getWindow().getDecorView().setSystemUiVisibility(View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LIGHT_STATUS_BAR);
} else {    
    getWindow().getDecorView().setSystemUiVisibility(View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LIGHT_STATUS_BAR);
    getWindow().setStatusBarColor(ContextCompat.getColor(MainActivity.this, R.color.colorSecondPrimaryColor));
}
