What is correct way to to change my toolbar MenuItem background when menu item selected. I would like to change it to signalize that MenuItem is selected I tried other answers , but no help. Any solution please? 
Here is my menu xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_gravity="left"
android:textDirection="ltr"
app:itemBackground="@drawable/drawer_list_selector">
<item
android:id="@+id/informacije"
android:layout_gravity="left|start"
android:checked="true"
android:textDirection="ltr"
android:title="O aplikaciji"
app:showAsAction="never" />
<item
android:id="@+id/podesavanja"
android:layout_gravity="left|start"
android:textDirection="ltr"
android:title="Podešavanja"
app:showAsAction="never" />
And styles.xml:
<resources>
<!-- Base application theme. -->
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
<!-- Customize your theme here. -->

</style>
In Activity:
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.podesavanja) {
startActivity(new Intent(this, Podesavanja.class));
return true;
}
if (id == R.id.informacije) {
startActivity(new Intent(this, OAplikacij.class));
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
