Styling DatePicker Android Marshmallow -

i'm struggling android calendar styling. turns out android 6 ignores calendartextcolor , uses textcolorprimary in order style day labels textcolorsecondary style day of weeks. i've checked calendartextcolor on android 5 , works correctly. according documentation textcolorprimary used toolbar text color. https://developer.android.com/training/material/theme.html toolbar text color white , receive white day labels on white background. how specify calendartextcolor without touching textcolorprimary android api 23?

you make custom theme datepicker , specify text color there

try this

<style name="datepickertheme" parent="theme.appcompat.light.dialog">     <item name="colorprimary">@color/colorprimary</item>     <item name="colorprimarydark">@color/colorprimarydark</item>     <item name="coloraccent">@color/colorprimary</item>     <item name="android:textcolorprimary">@color/colorblack</item>     <item name="android:textcolorsecondary">@color/colorblack</item>     <item name="android:textcolortertiary">@color/colorblack</item>  </style> 

and can specify theme when call datepickerdialog this

final datepickerdialog.ondatesetlistener date = new datepickerdialog.ondatesetlistener() {          @override         public void ondateset(datepicker view, int year, int monthofyear,                               int dayofmonth) {             // todo auto-generated method stub             mycalendar.set(calendar.year, year);             mycalendar.set(calendar.month, monthofyear);             mycalendar.set(calendar.day_of_month, dayofmonth);             string myformat = "mm/dd/yy"; //in need put here             simpledateformat sdf = new simpledateformat(myformat, locale.us);             calendar.settext(sdf.format(mycalendar.gettime()));         }      };      calendar.setonclicklistener(new view.onclicklistener() {          @override         public void onclick(view v) {             // todo auto-generated method stub             new datepickerdialog(youractivity.this,r.style.datepickertheme, date, mycalendar                     .get(calendar.year), mycalendar.get(calendar.month),                     mycalendar.get(calendar.day_of_month)).show();         }     });  }
