It can be done inside styles xml using   lt item name  android navigationBarColor  gt  color theme color lt  item gt    or   window setNavigationBarColor  ColorInt int color    http   developer android com reference android view Window html setNavigationBarColor int   Note that the method was introduced in Android Lollipop and won t work on API version  lt  21   The second method  works on KitKat  is to set windowTranslucentNavigation to true in the manifest and place a colored view beneath the navigation bar
