Answer 1

Just use: ivMyImageView.setColorFilter(ActivityCompat.getColor(context, android.R.color.holo_green_light))

Answer 2

 DrawableCompat.setTint(imageView.getDrawable(), ContextCompat.getColor(getApplicationContext(), R.color.white));

Answer 3

Use tint attribute of ImageView.

 android:tint="@color/colorAccent"

Answer 4

Use this tint imageview in android XML

 android:tint="@color/yourcolor"

Answer 5

Latest Lint shows a warning using android:tint, recommending to use app:tint, but the tint is not visible until you use it together with app:tintMode. So it looks like this:

app:tint="@color/yourcolor"
app:tintMode="add"

Answer 6

If you are using an icon maybe this can be useful:

android:tint="@color/colorAccent"

Otherwise you can try to modify the class:

ImageView imageViewIcon = (ImageView) listItem.findViewById(R.id.imageViewIcon);
imageViewIcon.setColorFilter(getContext().getResources().getColor(R.color.blue));
