Android - Tinting ProgressBar on pre-Lollipop devices

Question

My app\'s minimum API-level is 19 (KitKat), and contains a layout with a horizontal ProgressBar. I\'m using android:progressTint attribute to tint

If you want to do it programmatically, try this

public static void setSeekbarTint(SeekBar seekbar, int color) {
        PorterDuff.Mode porterDuffMode = PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN;
        if (seekbar.getIndeterminateDrawable() != null)
            seekbar.getIndeterminateDrawable().setColorFilter(color, porterDuffMode);

        if (seekbar.getProgressDrawable() != null &&
                seekbar.getProgressDrawable() instanceof LayerDrawable) {
            LayerDrawable layerDrawable = (LayerDrawable) seekbar.getProgressDrawable();
            GradientDrawable gradientDrawable = (GradientDrawable) layerDrawable.findDrawableByLayerId(android.R.id.background);

            layerDrawable.setColorFilter(color, porterDuffMode);
            seekbar.setProgressDrawable(layerDrawable);
            gradientDrawable.setColorFilter(Color.WHITE, porterDuffMode);
        } else if (seekbar.getProgressDrawable() != null &&
                seekbar.getProgressDrawable() instanceof ClipDrawable) {
            ClipDrawable clipDrawable = (ClipDrawable) seekbar.getProgressDrawable();
            clipDrawable.setColorFilter(color, porterDuffMode);
            seekbar.setProgressDrawable(clipDrawable);
        }
}
