SeekBar not setting actual progress. SetProgress() not working on early Android Versions [duplicate]

Question

I have an app where I want to set the progress of a specific SeekBar based upon a value retrieved from a web service. However when I use SetProgress(int) only the "seeker" of the SeekBar gets set. The bar does not get "filled" out as expected.

This is what it looks like :

Any ideas on how to fix this issue ?

Answer 1

Try to set max value first and then set the progress.
