I need all the icons and text in the toolbar to be light, and the overflow menu, the spinner, and the drawer (not shown in image) to all have a light backgrounds and dark text. (Using the android themes)

Why is only the overflow doing it how I'd like, but the drawer (not shown) and the spinner staying dark?

Any ideas help! (even though I feel I've tried everything)

Must be IDENTICAL to this

styles.xml

<resources>

    <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light">
        <item name="colorPrimary">@color/teal500</item>
        <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/teal700</item>
        <item name="colorAccent">@color/accent</item>
        <item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
        <item name="actionBarWidgetTheme">@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light</item>
    </style>

</resources>

toolbar.xml

<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:id="@+id/toolbar"
    ...
    app:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar"
    app:popupTheme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"/>

Why is it doing this?

  • Did you ever get the arrow to be white? – Michael Jan 07 '15 at 17:03

    I did, however its not in the answer. What you have to do it add the spinner programatically and not in xml. see `user3461233`s answer here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26755878/how-can-i-fix-the-spinner-style-for-android-4-x-placed-on-top-of-the-toolbar – tyczj Jan 07 '15 at 18:29
  • @tyczj Thank you, that's what I need to keep moving forward. – Michael Jan 07 '15 at 20:32
