Use,

Color.parseColor("#ffa100");

like,

mTextView.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#ffa100")); //set text color
mTextView.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#ffa100")); // set background color

You can set it directly from with the hex code, no need to have it in resources. Hex value has to be a String.

your_image.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#ffa100"))
