If you are using Vector Assets, then you can change the color in the xml with:

android:tint="@color/myColor" or android:tint="#ff00ff"

I recommend you use the colors.xml in the values folder. That way you can change the colors through the whole project at one place :)

Or in the code with: 

iconName.setColorFilter(Color.parseColor("#ff00ff"));

If you want the color change to happen on a click, toggle or different event. Then you would just need to apply the corresponding listener. For example a OnClickListener if you want this to happen on a click.

nameOfClickableObject.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            //to do code here
        }
    });

Edit: What are you currently using to display the icons? Have you got anything you could share?
