Menu
I am currently building an app using the new material design guidelines. I am using a Toolbar rather than an action bar.
I want the text, overflow icon, and the arrow/hamburger icon (thing that flips over when you pull out the navigation draw) to be white rather than black, but the rest of my theme needs to be the AppCompat.light theme.
If someone could please explain how i would go about changing these things, i would be very greatful.
I also need to change the colors both in xml and via java code.
And on a sub note, does anyone know how i set a sub-text in the toolbar? I read it is possible, but i cant find any resources on how it is done.

In method 1 Just go to the activity_main. xml file and add a TextView in the toolbar widget with the text color attribute.
Just go to res/values/styles.edit the xml file to change the color of action bar.
Here is complete style for your toolbar. Explanation is given inline.
<style name="MyToolbar" parent="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat">
<!-- Title text -->
<item name="android:textColorPrimary">@android:color/white</item>
<!-- Title color in AppCompat.Light -->
<item name="android:textColorPrimaryInverse">@android:color/white</item>
<!-- Menu text-->
<item name="actionMenuTextColor">@android:color/white</item>
<!-- Overflow -->
<item name="android:textColorSecondary">@android:color/white</item>
<!-- This will change drawer icon -->
<item name="drawerArrowStyle">@style/WhiteDrawerIconStyle</item>
<!-- background of the -->
<!-- <item name="android:background">@color/color_primary</item> -->
</style>
<style name="WhiteDrawerIconStyle" parent="Widget.AppCompat.DrawerArrowToggle">
<item name="spinBars">true</item>
<item name="color">@android:color/white</item>
</style>
On subtitle note: You can use mToolbar.setSubtitle(sutitle);

Put app:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar"
to your Toolbar xml. And arrow turns white.
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="@dimen/toolbar_height"
app:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar">
In your app bar, add this property.
app:theme = "@style/Base.V7.Theme.AppCompat"
That should take care of all the whiting. The referenced theme consists of a toolbar with white items, so the toolbar takes the part of the theme that is relevant to it.
Call mToolbar.setSubtitle as discussed above.
