How to restore default navigation bar color in Android?

Question

I set navigation bar color in my app like this:

getWindow().setNavigationBarColor(ContextCompat
                        .getColor(MainActivity.this, R.color.my_color));

and after change fragment I want to reset navigation bar color(come back to default). How do this ? I want not set in my style android:navigationBarColor">@color/my_navigaton_bar_color< and when I want set default, call:

 getWindow().setNavigationBarColor(ContextCompat
                        .getColor(MainActivity.this, R.color.my_navigaton_bar_color));

P.S. I was try save in variable getWindow().getNavigationBarColor() but it always -1 , a also try decode value from android.R.attrs.navigationBarColor but it also doesn't work

You have to set the color again, but you could use the primaryColor or colorAccent of your app that usually is where the color is from — javdromero, Mar 18 '21 at 23:38

This can be done inside styles.xml using

<item name="android:navigationBarColor">@color/theme_color</item>

or

window.setNavigationBarColor(@ColorInt int color)
