material design - How can I use Light SearchView on Dark App Bar on android? -

this main activity xml:

<android.support.design.widget.appbarlayout     android:layout_width="match_parent"     android:layout_height="wrap_content"     android:theme="@style/apptheme.appbaroverlay">      <android.support.v7.widget.toolbar         android:id="@+id/toolbar"         android:layout_width="match_parent"         android:layout_height="?attr/actionbarsize"         android:background="?attr/colorprimary"         app:popuptheme="@style/apptheme.popupoverlay" />  </android.support.design.widget.appbarlayout>  <include layout="@layout/content_main" />  <android.support.design.widget.floatingactionbutton     android:id="@+id/fab"     android:layout_width="wrap_content"     android:layout_height="wrap_content"     android:layout_gravity="bottom|end"     android:layout_margin="@dimen/fab_margin"     android:src="@android:drawable/ic_menu_search" /> 

this styles.xml

<style name="apptheme" parent="theme.appcompat.light">     <item name="colorprimary">@color/colorprimary</item>     <item name="colorprimarydark">@color/colorprimarydark</item>     <item name="coloraccent">@color/coloraccent</item> </style>  <style name="apptheme.noactionbar">     <item name="windowactionbar">false</item>     <item name="windownotitle">true</item> </style>  <style name="apptheme.appbaroverlay" parent="themeoverlay.appcompat.dark.actionbar"> </style>  <style name="apptheme.popupoverlay" parent="themeoverlay.appcompat.light" /> 

the problem want use white text on appbar, @ same time want search suggestions have dark text on white background (like holo). suggestions shown in dark theme. if use themeoverlay.appcompat.actionbar, suggestions turn white text on appbar turned black, , want remain white.

please me! attaching screenshots demonstration purposes:

1. this has white title text.
2. see dropdown suggestions? should white-themed.

here how succeeded achieve that:

you need override styles autocompletetextviewstyle , textappearancesearchresulttitle in theme:

<style name="apptheme" parent="theme.appcompat.light.noactionbar">     <item name="autocompletetextviewstyle">@style/myautocompletetextviewstyle</item>     <item name="textappearancesearchresulttitle">@style/mysearchresult</item>      ... </style>  <style name="myautocompletetextviewstyle" parent="widget.appcompat.light.autocompletetextview">     <item name="android:popupbackground">@color/white</item> </style>  <style name="mysearchresult" parent="textappearance.appcompat.searchresult.title">     <item name="android:textcolor">@color/black</item> </style>
