add these lines into your Activity before the setContentView()

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT) {
    Window w = getWindow();
    w.setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS);
}

add these 2 lines into your AppTheme

<item name="android:windowTranslucentStatus">true</item>
<item name="android:windowTranslucentNavigation">true</item>

and last thing your minSdkVersion must b 19

minSdkVersion 19

Try the following code  private static void setStatusBarTransparent Activity activity        if  Build VERSION SDK INT  gt   Build VERSION CODES LOLLIPOP            activity getWindow   addFlags WindowManager LayoutParams FLAG DRAWS SYSTEM BAR BACKGROUNDS           activity getWindow   clearFlags WindowManager LayoutParams FLAG TRANSLUCENT STATUS           activity getWindow   addFlags WindowManager LayoutParams FLAG TRANSLUCENT NAVIGATION           activity getWindow    setStatusBarColor Color TRANSPARENT         else           activity getWindow   addFlags WindowManager LayoutParams FLAG TRANSLUCENT STATUS

THERE ARE THREE STEPS  1  Just use this code segment into your OnCreate method      FullScreen   getWindow   setFlags WindowManager LayoutParams FLAG LAYOUT NO LIMITS     WindowManager LayoutParams FLAG LAYOUT NO LIMITS    If you   re working on Fragment  you should put this code segment in your activity   s OnCreate method  2  Be sure to also set the transparency in  res values-v21 styles xml   lt item name  quot android statusBarColor quot  gt  android color transparent lt  item gt   Or you can set the transparency programmatically  getWindow   setStatusBarColor Color TRANSPARENT    3  In anyway you should add the code segment in styles xml  lt item name  quot android windowTranslucentStatus quot  gt true lt  item gt   NOTE  This method just works on API 21 and above

The following code will make your status bar along with the navigation bar transparent  note that this will make your layout a full screen layout like the layouts used in games    Override public void onWindowFocusChanged boolean hasFocus        super onWindowFocusChanged hasFocus       if  hasFocus            hideSystemUI             private void hideSystemUI            Enables sticky immersive mode         For  quot lean back quot  mode  remove SYSTEM UI FLAG IMMERSIVE STICKY         Or for regular immersive mode replace it with SYSTEM UI FLAG IMMERSIVE     View decorView   getWindow   getDecorView        decorView setSystemUiVisibility              View SYSTEM UI FLAG IMMERSIVE STICKY                        Set the content to appear under the system bars so that the                        content doesn t resize when the system bars hide and show                        View SYSTEM UI FLAG LAYOUT STABLE                       View SYSTEM UI FLAG LAYOUT HIDE NAVIGATION                       View SYSTEM UI FLAG LAYOUT FULLSCREEN                        Hide the nav bar and status bar                       View SYSTEM UI FLAG HIDE NAVIGATION                       View SYSTEM UI FLAG FULLSCREEN      To learn more  visit this link

Simple and crisp and works with almost all use cases  for API level 16 and above    Use the following tag in your app theme to make the status bar transparent   lt item name  quot android statusBarColor quot  gt  android color transparent lt  item gt   And then use this code in your activity s onCreate method  View decorView   getWindow   getDecorView    decorView setSystemUiVisibility View SYSTEM UI FLAG LAYOUT STABLE           View SYSTEM UI FLAG LAYOUT FULLSCREEN      That s all you need to do    You can learn more from the developer documentation  I d also recommend reading this blog post  KOTLIN CODE      val decorView   window decorView     decorView systemUiVisibility    View SYSTEM UI FLAG LAYOUT STABLE             or View SYSTEM UI FLAG LAYOUT FULLSCREEN   Check my another answer here

For API  gt  23 with Day Night support you can use the extension below  Important part to understand is that android fitsSystemWindows  quot true quot  uses padding to move within insets  like you would with a Toolbar   Therefore it does not make sense to place it at your root layout  except DrawerLayout  CoordinatorLayout      these use their own implementation     lt style name  quot Theme YourApp DayNight quot  parent  quot Theme MaterialComponents DayNight NoActionBar quot  gt               lt item name  quot android windowLightStatusBar quot  gt  bool isDayMode lt  item gt       lt item name  quot android statusBarColor quot  gt  android color transparent lt  item gt   lt  style gt    lt androidx constraintlayout widget ConstraintLayout         gt        lt com google android material appbar MaterialToolbar                     android fitsSystemWindows  quot true quot  gt    lt  androidx constraintlayout widget ConstraintLayout  fun Activity transparentStatusBar         if  Build VERSION SDK INT  lt  Build VERSION CODES R            window decorView systemUiVisibility    View SYSTEM UI FLAG LAYOUT STABLE or View SYSTEM UI FLAG LAYOUT FULLSCREEN        else           window setDecorFitsSystemWindows false           Then call it like so  class YourActivity   AppCompatActivity         override fun onCreate savedInstanceState  Bundle             super onCreate savedInstanceState                      transparentStatusBar            Check these slides by Chris Banes  Becoming a master window fitter Edit  If you have problems with content floating behind your navigation bar  use    using Insetter binding yourViewHere applySystemWindowInsetsToPadding bottom   true

To draw your layout under statusbar   values styles xml   lt item name  android windowTranslucentStatus  gt true lt  item gt    values-v21 styles xml   lt item name  android windowDrawsSystemBarBackgrounds  gt true lt  item gt   lt item name  android statusBarColor  gt  color colorPrimaryDark lt  item gt    Use CoordinatorLayout DrawerLayout which already take care of the

While all the answers above circulate around the same fundamental idea and you can get it to work with simple layouts using one of the examples above  However I wanted to change the color of the background while using sliding  full screen   tab bar aside  fragment navigation and maintain regular navigation  tab and action bars   After reading carefully an article by Anton Hadutski I had better understanding what is going on   I have DrawerLayout with ConstraintLayout  i e  container  which has Toolbar  include for the main fragment and BottomNavigationView   Setting DrawerLayout having fitsSystemWindows to true isn t sufficient  you need to set both DrawerLayout and ConstraintLayout  Assuming transparent status bar  the status bar color is now the same as the background color of ConstraintLayout   However  the included fragment has still the status bar inset  so animating another  full screen  fragment on top of with doesn t change the color of the status bar   A bit of code from the referred article into Activity s onCreate   ViewCompat setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener findViewById R id container     view  insets - gt          insets replaceSystemWindowInsets                  insets systemWindowInsetLeft                  0                  insets systemWindowInsetRight                  insets systemWindowInsetBottom                   And all is good  except now the Toolbar doesn t address the status bar height  Some more referring to the article and we have a fully working solution   val toolbar   findViewById lt Toolbar gt  R id my toolbar      ViewCompat setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener findViewById R id container     view  insets - gt          val params   toolbar layoutParams as ViewGroup MarginLayoutParams         params topMargin   insets systemWindowInsetTop         toolbar layoutParams   params         insets replaceSystemWindowInsets                  insets systemWindowInsetLeft                  0                  insets systemWindowInsetRight                  insets systemWindowInsetBottom                   The main activity xml  please note that marginTop in Toolbar is for preview purposes  it will be replaced by the code     lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt       lt androidx drawerlayout widget DrawerLayout xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android          xmlns app  http   schemas android com apk res-auto          android id    id drawer layout          android layout width  match parent          android layout height  match parent          android fitsSystemWindows  true           gt        lt androidx constraintlayout widget ConstraintLayout xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android          xmlns app  http   schemas android com apk res-auto          xmlns tools  http   schemas android com tools          android id    id container          android layout width  match parent          android layout height  match parent          android background   color green          android fitsSystemWindows  true          tools context   MainActivity  gt            lt androidx appcompat widget Toolbar             android id    id my toolbar              android layout width  match parent              android layout height   attr actionBarSize              app layout constraintTop toTopOf   id container              android layout marginTop  26dp               android background   android color transparent                  gt                           lt  androidx appcompat widget Toolbar gt            lt include layout   layout content main    gt                   lt  androidx constraintlayout widget ConstraintLayout gt           lt  androidx drawerlayout widget DrawerLayout gt

in my case as I ve a bottom tool bar I had a problem when testing the previous solutions  the android system buttons are covered with my bottom menu my solution is to add within the activity      protected void onCreate Bundle savedInstanceState              super onCreate savedInstanceState           force full screen mode     requestWindowFeature Window FEATURE NO TITLE       getWindow   setFlags WindowManager LayoutParams FLAG FULLSCREEN              WindowManager LayoutParams FLAG FULLSCREEN         setContentView R layout main activity container
