How do I change to a Holo Dark/Light themes from within the app?

Question

I know it\'s possible to have it so if I have a setting I can change between Holo.Light and Holo, however, I cannot seem to find out how. All help is appreciated!

Answer 1

I think that you can do it by using the setTheme() method. Just make sure that you call it before you use setContentView, or it won't work.

For example:

if(userChoice ==1){
   setTheme(android.R.style.Theme_Holo_Light);
else if(userChoice == 2){
    setTheme(android.R.style.Theme_Holo);
}
