    <item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimary</item>
    <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>

<item name="android:statusBarColor">@android:color/transparent</item>
<item name="android:navigationBarColor">@android:color/transparent</item>

</style>

XML

<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"

    tools:context="activities.HomeActivity"
    tools:showIn="@layout/app_bar_home">
   <!-- app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"-->
    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical">
    <ImageView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="300dp"
        android:scaleType="fitXY"
        android:src="@drawable/home_top_image"
       />
    </LinearLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>

I already tried several answers . but none of those worked. And also added this

 if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT) {
        Window w = getWindow(); // in Activity's onCreate() for instance
        w.setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS);
    }

But I am getting an overlapped toolbar like this

This is not what I want. Please help..

to set image in action make your toolbar like this

<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
    android:id="@+id/toolbar"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
    android:background="@color/float_transparent"
    app:popupTheme="@style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay" >


    <ImageView
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
      android:scaleType="fitXY"
      android:src="@drawable/home_top_image"
   />
 </android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>

and in activity theme m change your primary color and primary dark color to transparent color

like this

 <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
  <!-- Customize your theme here. -->
  <item name="colorPrimary">@android:color/transparent</item>
  <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@android:color/transparent</item>
  <item name="colorAccent">@color/colorAccent</item>
  <item name="android:windowTranslucentStatus">true</item>
  <item name="android:windowTranslucentNavigation">true</item>
 </style>
