If you use Android default action bar then  If you change from java then some time show previous color     Example       Then your action bar code inside  app bar main   So go inside app bar main xml and just add Background   Example   lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt       lt android support design widget AppBarLayout     android layout width  match parent      android layout height  wrap content      android theme   style AppTheme AppBarOverlay  gt        lt android support v7 widget Toolbar         android id    id toolbar          android layout width  match parent          android layout height   attr actionBarSize          android background   33691e     lt  --use your color -- gt          app popupTheme   style AppTheme PopupOverlay    gt    lt  android support design widget AppBarLayout gt   lt include layout   layout content main1    gt
