One more solution:

final View decorView = w.getDecorView();
View view = new View(BaseControllerActivity.this);
final int statusBarHeight = UiUtil.getStatusBarHeight(ContextHolder.get());
view.setLayoutParams(new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, statusBarHeight));
view.setBackgroundColor(colorValue);
((ViewGroup)decorView).addView(view);
