I want to change the theme of a specific activity in android. I have an application theme that is set, but want to set a specific theme for a specific activity. I cannot do it in the onCreate() with the way the application has been developed, and would like to do it in the view.xml file by doing android:theme="DarkTheme". However, this does not work, does anyone know a work around?

You can simply specify it for the activity you want in your manifest file. So for example

<activity
    android:theme="@style/THE_THEME_YOU_WANT">
</activity>

  • It is not an activity. Simply a View.java file, that extends FrameLayout. I return that object and I do a addView(view). – Kunal Patel Jun 30 '16 at 16:36

Try change theme of activity you want in AndroidManifest.xml

<activity
    android:name=".YourActivity"
    android:label="@string/title_your_activity"
    android:theme="@style/YourTheme">
</activity>
