Android Material recolor EditText underline

Question

how can I recolor the underline of an EditText in android 5.0 (Material) ? It is appearing gray but I want it to be blue, how can I archieve that?

Answer 1

you have to set in your app Theme this line:

    <item name="android:colorControlActivated">#123490</item>

(or colorAccent for wider range of coloring)

Answer 2

以编程方式执行： editText.getBackground().setColorFilter(getResources().getColor(android.R.color.white), PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_ATOP);
