I’m not sure I understand the problem. I you want to change the status bar color programmatically (and provided the device has Android 5.0) then you can use Window.setStatusBarColor().

Basically, the idea is to add a new android.support.v7.widget.ActionMenuView as child of the Toolbar, set its gravity to top|start, and then add the menu to that action menu view in your Activity. Here is the code: my_toolbar.xml <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar xmlns:android=”http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android” xmlns:app=”http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto” … Read more
