Programatically Changing One Edittext Color Changes Edittexts Color In Whole App Using Android 5

I have very strange problem in Android 5. If user inputs something wrong I want to set error to edittext and change it color to red, and when user starts typing something I want to

Solution 1:

The problem is that the background Drawable is reused across many Views. To ensure the Drawable is not shared between multiple Views you should use the mutate method.

See: mutate()

Example code:

Drawablebackground= mainMenuButton.getBackground();
background.mutate();
background.setColorFilter(newPorterDuffColorFilter(getResources().getColor(R.color.light_green), PorterDuff.Mode.MULTIPLY));
mainMenuButton.setBackground(background);

Android 5.0 Lollipop: setColorFilter "leaks" onto other buttons

Solution 2:

Do Same for like spinner colour changes..

In Android Lollipop Version you have to implement code for kitkat version and lollipop version separately , please do this code for change background of spinner. its example of image background changes of images.

      if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT => Build.VERSION_CODES.KitKat) 
                        {
                            //for Lollipop Vession// do on textChangeListner code
eText.setBackgroundDrawable(Color.RED);
                        }
                        else
                        {
     // do on textChangeListner code
eText.setBackgroundResource(Color.RED);
                        }

i hope it helps you, if it is useful code for then please mark me .. Thanx.. :)
