Lollipop Progress Bar Tinting

Question

I\'m on a Lollipop device (MotoG 2014), I read about progress bar tinting, but this is not working...I get the default progress bar color. What am I missing here?

Answer 1

Your code works well in Android 6.0+, but not for Android 5.1 and before as I have tested on my local Android emulator.

I agree with the explanation of @Skizo-ozᴉʞS, and I've found an issue report in Android Issue Tracker that may refer to this bug. See this link.

From the code it seems that using "android:indeterminateTint" only will not take any effects for API < 23.
