Edittext color is white in appcompat 22.2
EDIT 2 : This is happening because of the line <item name="theme">@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar</item> in styles.xml . I'm using this to display light color (white) texts and back home button in ToolBar . If i change this to <item name="theme">@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light</item> then EditText is working as expected but my ToolBar text and back home button colors are changes to dark (black). As I'm using dark colored ToolBar I would like to show the text and back home button in light (white) color. I tried using <item name="android:theme">...</item> instead of <item name=
