Using setStatusBarColor Method

This method can be only used in the above API Level 21. Officially status bar color is not supporting below API Level 21. Although, Here we added an if condition.

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 21) {
        Window window = this.getWindow();
        window.addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_DRAWS_SYSTEM_BAR_BACKGROUNDS);
        window.setStatusBarColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.your_transparent_color));
    }

Use the following piece of code inside your onCreate method.

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT) {
  Window w = getWindow();
  w.setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS);
}
