android-styles

I was wondering if it's possible to change the statusbar icons colour ( not the statusbar colour, colorPrimaryDark ) Let's say I want this statusbar with: <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@android:color/white</item> and the icons in black, is it possible? Thanks. EDIT: New in the M developer preview: windowLightStatusBar. Flipping this on in your theme tells the system to use a dark foreground, useful for lighter colored status bars. Note the M preview seems to have a bug where notification icons remain white, while system status icons correctly change to semitransparent black. from: Roman Nurik

I am looking to Custom The Switch Button to becoming as following : How to achieve this ? you can use the following code to change color and text : <org.jraf.android.backport.switchwidget.Switch android:id="@+id/th" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" app:thumb="@drawable/apptheme_switch_inner_holo_light" app:track="@drawable/apptheme_switch_track_holo_light" app:textOn="@string/switch_yes" app:textOff="@string/switch_no" android:textColor="#000000" /> Create a xml named colors.xml in res/values folder: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <resources>

I've updated my SDK to API 21 and now the back/up icon is a black arrow pointing to the left. I would like it to be grey. How can I do that? In the Play Store, for example, the arrow is white. I've done this to set some styles. I have used @drawable/abc_ic_ab_back_mtrl_am_alpha for homeAsUpIndicator . That drawable is transparent (only alpha) but the arrow is displayed in black. I wonder if I can set the color like I do in the DrawerArrowStyle . Or if the only solution is to create my @drawable/grey_arrow and use it for homeAsUpIndicator . <!-- Base application theme --> <style name="AppTheme"

In my app "Tide Now WA" which I recently tested for compatibility using the new Nexus 9 tablet (Lollipop - API 21). It writes some button text. This app writes the text correctly using Android 2.3 and Android 4.0. I.e. mixed capital and lower case letters. When same app is run on my Nexus 9 all the letters in the text are capitalized. FWIW my manifest contains the following statement: uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="10" android:targetSdkVersion="14" Can I fix this in my code or is it a bug in the O.S. thanks Nikola Despotoski I don't have idea why it is happening but there 3 trivial attempts

The switch widget introduced in API 14 is styled by default with holo theme. I want to style it slightly different, changing its colors and shape a bit for branding reasons. How does one go about this? I know it must be possible, as ive seen the difference between default ICS and Samsung's touchwiz theme I assume I'll need some state drawables, and I've seen a few styles in http://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.styleable.html with Switch_thumb and Switch_track that look like what I might be after. I just don't know how to go about using them. I'm using ActionbarSherlock if that
