Try this once.

In your activity onCreate() method, paste the following code.

try {
        if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 21) {
                Window window = getWindow();
                window.addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_DRAWS_SYSTEM_BAR_BACKGROUNDS);
                window.setStatusBarColor(ContextCompat.getColor(this, R.color.color_red));
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

Note: color_red - is the status bar colour.
