Button background selector is not showing

I am trying to give the selector to the RadioButton of android:button but not able to showing that button in the preview as well as the real device, My goal is to make the android:button would be the custom.
I have to RadioGroup with two RadioButton.
I have tried this solution also https://stackoverflow.com/a/12432722/6869491
But still not able to get the desired solution.
<RadioGroup
android:id="#+id/radio_group"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="#dimen/padding_25"
android:orientation="horizontal"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="#id/sub_const"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="#id/sub_const"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="#id/sub_const"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#id/pay_amt_et">
<RadioButton
style="#style/MyRadioButtonStyle"
android:id="#+id/manual_rb"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:checked="true"
android:text="#string/manual"
android:textColor="#color/textcolor"
android:textSize="#dimen/fontsize_16"
/>
<RadioButton
style="#style/MyRadioButtonStyle"
android:id="#+id/recurring_rb"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="Recuring"
android:textColor="#color/textcolor"
android:textSize="#dimen/fontsize_16"
/>
</RadioGroup>
And here is the radio button selector, that is radio_btn_selector.
<item android:state_checked="true" android:state_window_focused="false"
android:drawable="#drawable/radio_btn_active" />
<item android:state_checked="false" android:state_window_focused="false"
android:drawable="#drawable/radio_btn_un_selected" />
<item android:state_checked="true" android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/radio_btn_active" />
<item android:state_checked="false" android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/radio_btn_un_selected" />
<item android:state_checked="true" android:state_focused="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/radio_btn_active" />
<item android:state_checked="false" android:state_focused="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/radio_btn_un_selected" />
<item android:state_checked="false" android:drawable="#drawable/radio_btn_un_selected" />
<item android:state_checked="true" android:drawable="#drawable/radio_btn_active" />
And here is the radio_btn_active.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<shape android:shape="oval">
<solid android:color="#color/colorWhite" />
<stroke
android:width="#dimen/padding_2"
android:color="#color/grey_darker" />
</shape>
</item>
<item
android:bottom="#dimen/padding_30"
android:end="#dimen/padding_30"
android:start="#dimen/padding_30"
android:top="#dimen/padding_30">
<shape android:shape="oval">
<solid android:color="#color/primary_edtext_light" />
</shape>
</item>
</layer-list>
And this is radio_btn_un_selected.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="oval">
<solid android:color="#color/colorWhite" />
<stroke
android:width="#dimen/padding_2"
android:color="#color/grey_darker" />
</shape>
And Given the style as well.
<style name="MyRadioButtonStyle"
parent="#android:style/Widget.CompoundButton.RadioButton">
<item name="android:button">#drawable/radio_btn_selector</item>
</style>
Whats I am making wrong please guide me.

I think you missed to set RadioButton's android:background="#drawable/radio_btn_selector" property.
<RadioButton
android:id="#+id/manual_rb"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:checked="true"
android:text="#string/manual"
android:textColor="#color/textcolor"
android:textSize="#dimen/fontsize_16"
android:button="#android:color/transparent"
android:background="#drawable/radio_btn_selector"
/>

Android : Change the color of radio button in custom layout for spinner

I want to change the color of radio button on being tapped. I am using custom layout with on custom edit text and radio button in it.This is my xml for layout item.
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerVertical="true">
<com.ekcoffee.ekcoffeeapp.widgets.AppTextView
android:id="#+id/textViewCountryCode"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:gravity="center"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/dimen_10dp"
android:text="+91 (India)"
android:textColor="#color/color_black_text"
android:textSize="#dimen/dimen_16sp"
app:textStyle="#integer/OPEN_SANS_REGULAR" />
</RelativeLayout>
<RadioButton
android:id="#+id/selector"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:backgroundTint="#color/color_accent"
android:checked="false"
android:clickable="false"
android:focusable="false"
/>
This is my xml for spinner
<android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatSpinner
android:id="#+id/spinnerCountryCode"
style="#style/spinner_style"
android:layout_width="#dimen/dimen_1dp"
android:layout_height="#dimen/dimen_1dp"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:hint="+91"
android:spinnerMode="dialog"
android:textColor="#color/color_splash_screen_text"
android:textColorHint="#color/color_white"
android:textSize="#dimen/dimen_25dp" />
i have used style also for spinner
<style name="spinner_style" parent="Widget.AppCompat.Spinner.Underlined">
<item name="android:background">#color/color_primary</item>
<item name="android:layout_marginLeft">#dimen/dimen_48dp</item>
<item name="android:layout_marginRight">#dimen/dimen_24dp</item>
<item name="android:layout_marginBottom">10dp</item>
<item name="android:checkMark">#drawable/ic_radio_checked</item>
<item name="android:paddingLeft">8dp</item>
<item name="android:layout_marginTop">100dp</item>
<item name="android:paddingBottom">5dp</item>
</style>

In your styles.xml put -
<!-- custom style -->
<style name="radionbutton"
parent="Base.Widget.AppCompat.CompoundButton.RadioButton">
<item name="android:button">#drawable/radiobutton_drawable</item>
</style>
Your radio button in xml should look like-
<RadioButton
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
style="#style/radionbutton"
android:checked="false"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
Now all you need to do is make a radiobutton_drawable.xml in your drawable folder. Here is what you need to put in it-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:drawable="#drawable/radio_unchecked" android:state_checked="false" android:state_focused="true"/>
<item android:drawable="#drawable/radio_unchecked" android:state_checked="false" android:state_focused="false"/>
<item android:drawable="#drawable/radio_checked" android:state_checked="true" android:state_focused="true"/>
<item android:drawable="#drawable/radio_checked" android:state_checked="true" android:state_focused="false"/>
</selector>
Your radio_unchecked.xml-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="oval">
<stroke android:width="1dp" android:color="#color/colorAccent"/>
<size android:width="30dp" android:height="30dp"/>
</shape>
Your radio_checked.xml-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<shape android:shape="oval">
<stroke android:width="1dp" android:color="#color/colorAccent"/>
<size android:width="30dp" android:height="30dp"/>
</shape>
</item>
<item android:top="5dp" android:bottom="5dp" android:left="5dp" android:right="5dp">
<shape android:shape="oval">
<solid android:width="1dp" android:color="#color/colorAccent"/>
<size android:width="10dp" android:height="10dp"/>
</shape>
</item>
</layer-list>
Just replace #color/colorAccent with the color of your choice.

More simple, just set the buttonTint color: (only works on api level 21 or above)
<RadioButton
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/radio"
android:checked="true"
android:buttonTint="#color/your_color"/>
in your values/colors.xml put your color in this case a reddish one:
<color name="your_color">#e75748</color>
Result:

int textColor = Color.parseColor(#000000);
yourradiobutton.setButtonTintList(ColorStateList.valueOf(textColor));
put above code inside your button's onClick method

Change edittext backgroundTint Color

Here is my editext, i want to change bottom line color of edittext. i use android:backgroundTint but its only work in API 21 and above it.
<EditText
android:id="#+id/password"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="20dp"
android:backgroundTint="#color/edittintcolor"
android:drawableLeft="#drawable/lock"
android:hint=" Password"
android:padding="15dp"
android:textColor="#color/edittintcolor"
android:textColorHint="#color/edittintcolor"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:typeface="serif" />
I want to change this color using XML or style not in java code

bg.xml
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#FDEEF4" />
<corners
android:radius="15dp" />
<stroke android:width="1dip" android:color="#F9966B" />
<EditText
android:id="#+id/password"
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:background="#drawable/bd=g"
android:hint="#string/password"
android:inputType="textPassword" >
</EditText>

Create a drawable xml for your edittext background.. Use this following code..
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#android:color/transparent" />
<!--background color of box-->
</shape>
</item>
<item
android:left="-2dp"
android:right="-2dp"
android:top="-2dp">
<shape>
<solid android:color="#android:color/transparent" />
<stroke
android:width="1dp"
android:color="#android:color/white" />
<!-- color of edittext line -->
</shape>
</item>
</layer-list>
and set that drawable xml as your edittext background. :)

use command like below in edit text
<EditText
android:id="#+id/password"
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:background="#drawable/edittextborder"
android:hint="#string/password"
android:inputType="textPassword" >
<requestFocus />
</EditText>
then proceed with below code inside drawable folder
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#FDEEF4" />
<corners
android:radius="15dp" />
<stroke android:width="1dip" android:color="#F9966B" />
EDEEF4 represents the tint color

We can achieve by using two ways,
Method 1:
We can design background image using selector drawable,
create backgroundEditText.xml in drawable,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:state_window_focused="false"
android:state_enabled="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/textfield_default" />
<item
android:state_window_focused="false"
android:state_enabled="false"
android:drawable="#drawable/textfield_disabled" />
<item
android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/textfield_pressed" />
<item
android:state_enabled="true"
android:state_focused="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/textfield_selected" />
<item
android:state_enabled="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/textfield_default" />
<item
android:state_focused="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/textfield_disabled_selected" />
<item
android:drawable="#drawable/textfield_disabled" />
textfield_pressed.9.png
[![textfield_pressed.9][4]][4]
textfield_selected.9.png
[![textfield_selected.9][5]][5]
We need to set backgroundEditText for EditText in layout file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<EditText
android:id="#+id/edit1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/edit1_text"
android:inputType="text"
android:background="#drawable/edit_text"
/>
</LinearLayout>
[![Final Output ][6]][6]
Method 2:
Using android.support.v4 support library, we can give backward compatibility.

You can use this site to generate your own EditText style.
Generate drawable and set it as background, like:
android:background="#drawable/generated_theme_edit_text"

How to change text color when Button/TextView is pressed in android

How can i change TextView text color by using custom xml file.
When i press the button button text should change into white color, When i release the button the text should be changed into black color. Because i have used this background.xml for all textviews. so if i change in single place it will be affect all the place. but Text Color is not changing.
TextView Code i used :
<TextView
android:id="#+id/title"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/btn_add"
android:background="#drawable/background"
android:gravity="left"
android:paddingBottom="10dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingRight="5dp"
android:paddingTop="10dp"
android:text="#string/student_name"
android:textColor="#color/black"
android:textSize="18dp" />
background.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:drawable="#drawable/bg1"
android:color="#color/White"
android:state_pressed="false"/>
<item
android:drawable="#drawable/bg2"
android:color="#color/black"
android:state_pressed="true"/>
</selector>

Try this:
TextView
<TextView
android:id="#+id/title"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/btn_add"
android:background="#drawable/background"
android:gravity="left"
android:paddingBottom="10dp"
android:state_selected="true"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingRight="5dp"
android:paddingTop="10dp"
android:text="#string/student_name"
android:textColor="#drawable/my_text_color"
android:textSize="18dp" />
drawable/my_text_color.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<!-- pressed -->
<item android:state_pressed="true" android:color="#color/White"/>
<!-- focused -->
<item android:state_focused="true" android:color="#color/White"/>
<!-- activated -->
<item android:state_activated="true" android:color="#color/White"/>
<!-- checked -->
<item android:state_checked="true" android:color="#color/White"/>
<!-- default -->
<item android:color="#color/black"/>
</selector>
In your class file add the following code,
textView.setselected(true);

The Code you have given is working. I used like this.
TextView Code :
<TextView
android:id="#+id/title"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/btn_add"
android:background="#drawable/background"
android:gravity="left"
android:paddingBottom="10dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingRight="5dp"
android:paddingTop="10dp"
android:text="#string/blood_pressure"
android:textColor="#drawable/my_text_color"
android:textSize="18dp" />
background.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:drawable="#drawable/bg1"
android:state_pressed="false"/>
<item
android:drawable="#drawable/bg2"
android:state_pressed="true"/>
</selector>
my_text_color.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<!-- pressed -->
<item android:state_pressed="true" android:color="#color/White"/>
<!-- focused -->
<item android:state_focused="true" android:color="#color/White"/>
<!-- activated -->
<item android:state_activated="true" android:color="#color/White"/>
<!-- checked -->
<item android:state_checked="true" android:color="#color/White"/>
<!-- default -->
<item android:color="#color/black"/>
</selector>

Implementing custom Edittext style in android

I am creating custom edit text in android by adding xml in drawable res.it is as following
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<!-- Border -->
<item>
<shape>
<solid android:color="#color/gray"></solid>
</shape>
</item>
<!-- Body -->
<item
android:bottom="1dp"
android:right="0dp"
android:left="0dp"
android:top="0dp">
<shape>
<solid android:color="#color/white"></solid>
</shape>
</item>
</layer-list>
<EditText
android:id="#+id/edt_password"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:background="#drawable/edittext"
android:digits="1234567890"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
android:inputType="numberPassword"
android:singleLine="true"
android:textColor="#color/dark" />
so i just want edittext as a single line.
But when i implement this, for few seconds the upper border of edittext is visible and then it goes away...
I am really not getting why this is happening...

Create res/drawable/custom_edittext_style.xml
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_window_focused="false" android:state_enabled="true" android:drawable="#drawable/apptheme_textfield_default_holo_light" />
<item android:state_window_focused="false" android:state_enabled="false" android:drawable="#drawable/apptheme_textfield_disabled_holo_light" />
<item android:state_enabled="true" android:state_focused="true" android:drawable="#drawable/apptheme_textfield_activated_holo_light" />
<item android:state_enabled="true" android:state_activated="true" android:drawable="#drawable/apptheme_textfield_focused_holo_light" />
<item android:state_enabled="true" android:drawable="#drawable/apptheme_textfield_default_holo_light" />
<item android:state_focused="true" android:drawable="#drawable/apptheme_textfield_disabled_focused_holo_light" />
<item android:drawable="#drawable/apptheme_textfield_disabled_holo_light" />
And add all require drawable file into drawable folder.
<EditText
android:id="#+id/edt_password"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:background="#drawable/custom_edittext_style"
android:digits="1234567890"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
android:inputType="numberPassword"
android:singleLine="true"
android:textColor="#color/dark" />
