Answer 1

You have to use the following attributes

<android.support.v7.widget.CardView
    android:id="@+id/card_view"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    app:cardElevation="0dp"
    app:cardCornerRadius="0.5dp"
    app:cardPreventCornerOverlap="false"
    >
   </android.support.v7.widget.CardView>

Answer 2

Try to put the elevation in Xml.

app:cardElevation="0dp"

OR

cardView.setCardElevation(0);

And check you are using the latest CardView library.

Answer 3

use app:cardElevation="0dp", don't use app:elevation="0dp"

Answer 4

 <android.support.v7.widget.CardView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        app:cardElevation="0dp"
        app:cardCornerRadius="2dp">
....`
 </android.support.v7.widget.CardView>

Answer 5

Just put this line inside your CardView:

app:cardElevation="0dp"

Hope it will help you.

Answer 6

use this attribute in XML

card_view:cardElevation="0dp"

and remember add xmlns:card_view="http://schemas.android.com/tools" in your root layout.

OR you can call cardView.setCardElevation(0) to disable shadow programmatically.

cardView.setElevation() method and CardView attribute android:elevation will throw java.lang.NoSuchMethodError in platform before Android 5.0
