How to change android indeterminate ProgressBar color?

progressBar.getIndeterminateDrawable().setColorFilter(            getResources().getColor(Your_Color),            android.graphics.PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN);

and replace Your_Color with the desired color like: R.color.your_color_code

To get a ProgressBar in the default theme that is to be used on white/light back ground, use one of the inverse styles:

<ProgressBar style="@android:style/Widget.ProgressBar.Inverse"/><ProgressBar style="@android:style/Widget.ProgressBar.Large.Inverse"/><ProgressBar style="@android:style/Widget.ProgressBar.Small.Inverse"/>

This will usually give you a black on transparent ProgressBar, but some OS installs use custom assets. If you're looking for a specific color, you'll have to roll your own drawables by following the instructions provided by CommonsWare.

I see other answers are quite old, in order to change the indeterminate ProgressBar color you have just to set android:indeterminateTint and android:indeterminateTintMode attributes in your ProgressBar item directly in XML:

<ProgressBar    android:layout_width="wrap_content"    android:layout_height="wrap_content"    android:indeterminateTint="@color/colorPrimary"    android:indeterminateTintMode="src_in"    android:indeterminate="true" />

android:indeterminateTint - Tint to apply to the indeterminate progress indicator.

Must be a color value, in the form of "#rgb", "#argb", "#rrggbb", "#aarrggbb", or a reference to a resource @color/colorPrimary.

android:indeterminateTintMode - Blending mode used to apply the progress indicator tint.

Must be one of the following constant values:
add, multiply, screen, src_atop, src_in or src_over

Getter and Setter methods for these attributes are:

• getIndeterminateTintList()
• getIndeterminateTintMode()
• setIndeterminateTintList(ColorStateList tint)
• setIndeterminateTintMode(PorterDuff.Mode tintMode)

All of them were added in API level 21
