Android: ValueAnimator always gives end value

Question

I have below metod to configure my ValueAnimator for cross fading between two colors. But it doesn't work. It always gives ending color value.

Integer colorFrom;
Integer colorTo;

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    mGoogleApiClient = buildGoogleApiClient();
    activity = getActivity();
    context = activity.getApplicationContext();
    colorFrom = ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.donut_finished_color);
    colorTo = ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.Red);
}

@Override
public void onResume() {
    super.onResume();
    setColorAnimation();
}

private void setColorAnimation() {
    long passedTime = Calendar.getInstance().getTime().getTime() - currentEarlyDate.getTime();
    colorAnimator = ValueAnimator.ofObject(argbEvaluator, colorFrom, colorTo);
    colorAnimator.setDuration(currentPrayerTimeLength);
    colorAnimator.setInterpolator(null);
    colorAnimator.addUpdateListener(this);
    colorAnimator.start();
    colorAnimator.setCurrentPlayTime(passedTime);
}

@Override
public void onAnimationUpdate(ValueAnimator animation) {
    Integer colorValue = (Integer) colorAnimator.getAnimatedValue();
    Log.e(Constants.LOG_TAG, "Duration : " + colorAnimator.getDuration());
    Log.e(Constants.LOG_TAG, "Current : " + colorAnimator.getCurrentPlayTime());
    Log.e(Constants.LOG_TAG, "Color : " + colorValue);
    remainingTimeProgress.setFinishedStrokeColor(colorValue);
    remainingTimeProgress.setUnfinishedStrokeColor(colorValue);
}

Timing values seems wright on log but animated color value jumps to end

09-02 17:53:22.102    onAnimationUpdate - Color : -65536 //Quickly jumps to end

Can't figure out what is wrong?

Answer 1

make sure you have Animations enabled in your device "developer options", if disabled your animation simply jumps from "start" to "end" value
