Answer 1

You can use the external library StatusBarUtil:

Add to your module level build.gradle:

compile 'com.jaeger.statusbarutil:library:1.4.0'

Then you can use the following util for an Activity to make the status bar transparent:

StatusBarUtil.setTransparent(Activity activity)

Example:

Completely Transparent StatusBar and NavigationBar

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    transparentStatusAndNavigation();
}


private void transparentStatusAndNavigation() {
    //make full transparent statusBar
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 19 && Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < 21) {
        setWindowFlag(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_STATUS
                | WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_NAVIGATION, true);
    }
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 19) {
        getWindow().getDecorView().setSystemUiVisibility(
                View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE
                        | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN
                        | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_HIDE_NAVIGATION
        );
    }
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 21) {
        setWindowFlag(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_STATUS
                | WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_NAVIGATION, false);
        getWindow().setStatusBarColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);
        getWindow().setNavigationBarColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);
    }
}

private void setWindowFlag(final int bits, boolean on) {
    Window win = getWindow();
    WindowManager.LayoutParams winParams = win.getAttributes();
    if (on) {
        winParams.flags |= bits;
    } else {
        winParams.flags &= ~bits;
    }
    win.setAttributes(winParams);
}

android:fitsSystemWindows="true" only work on v21. We can set it in theme xml or in parent layout like LinearLayout or in CoordinateLayout . For below v21, We could not add this flag. Please create different values folder with different style.xml file as per your need.

Answer 4

To draw your layout under statusbar:

values/styles.xml

<item name="android:windowTranslucentStatus">true</item>

values-v21/styles.xml

<item name="android:windowDrawsSystemBarBackgrounds">true</item>
<item name="android:statusBarColor">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>

Use CoordinatorLayout/DrawerLayout which already take care of the fitsSystemWindows parameter or create your own layout to like this:

public class FitsSystemWindowConstraintLayout extends ConstraintLayout {

    private Drawable mStatusBarBackground;
    private boolean mDrawStatusBarBackground;

    private WindowInsetsCompat mLastInsets;

    private Map<View, int[]> childsMargins = new HashMap<>();

    public FitsSystemWindowConstraintLayout(Context context) {
        this(context, null);
    }

    public FitsSystemWindowConstraintLayout(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        this(context, attrs, 0);
    }

    public FitsSystemWindowConstraintLayout(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);

        if (ViewCompat.getFitsSystemWindows(this)) {
            ViewCompat.setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener(this, new android.support.v4.view.OnApplyWindowInsetsListener() {
                @Override
                public WindowInsetsCompat onApplyWindowInsets(View view, WindowInsetsCompat insets) {
                    FitsSystemWindowConstraintLayout layout = (FitsSystemWindowConstraintLayout) view;
                    layout.setChildInsets(insets, insets.getSystemWindowInsetTop() > 0);
                    return insets.consumeSystemWindowInsets();
                }
            });
            setSystemUiVisibility(View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE
                    | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN);
            TypedArray typedArray = context.obtainStyledAttributes(new int[]{android.R.attr.colorPrimaryDark});
            try {
                mStatusBarBackground = typedArray.getDrawable(0);
            } finally {
                typedArray.recycle();
            }
        } else {
            mStatusBarBackground = null;
        }
    }

    public void setChildInsets(WindowInsetsCompat insets, boolean draw) {
        mLastInsets = insets;
        mDrawStatusBarBackground = draw;
        setWillNotDraw(!draw && getBackground() == null);

        for (int i = 0; i < getChildCount(); i++) {
            View child = getChildAt(i);
            if (child.getVisibility() != GONE) {
                if (ViewCompat.getFitsSystemWindows(this)) {
                    ConstraintLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = (ConstraintLayout.LayoutParams) child.getLayoutParams();

                    if (ViewCompat.getFitsSystemWindows(child)) {
                        ViewCompat.dispatchApplyWindowInsets(child, insets);
                    } else {
                        int[] childMargins = childsMargins.get(child);
