Android datetime picker change colors?

Can we change colors of Android datetime picker?

Hi there,
to style it on Android you should tweak a bit the native code :)

Hi @mmazzarolo;
I have sort of a problem about this. I changed colors on my theme on native code but it doesn't change your dialogs. If I use react-native DatePickerAndroid and TimePickerAndroid separately it works perfectly but doesn't change when I use yours.

Here is my style.xml

<resources>

    <!-- Base application theme. -->
    <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
        <!-- Customize your theme here. -->
        <item name="colorAccent">@color/mainRed</item>
    </style>
    <style name="Dialog.Theme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.Dialog">
        <item name="colorAccent">@color/mainRed</item>
    </style>

</resources>

Edit: I found out that if I set react-native DatePickerAndroid mode it doesn't work either. If I don't pass a mode prop it works fine.

What do you think can cause this?

Thanks

Hey @bennygenel,

I found out that if I set react-native DatePickerAndroid mode it doesn't work either. If I don't pass a mode prop it works fine.

If you're talking about react-native's own DatePickerAndroid, it is a react-native issue indeed.
Do you mind opening an issue on the react-native official repo?
Feel free to link this issue if needed, I'll leave it open :)
Thank you!

Hey @mmazzarolo;

Thanks for reopening the issue. I was wondering if it is possible to not provide a mode prop to the DatePickerAndroid if the datePickerModeAndroid prop is omited?

At least this way default DatePickerDialog can be styled correctly.

Thanks again

Could you submit a PR (making sure that it doesn't break anything)?
I'll gladly merge it, but I'd also like to see the issue reported to the react-native official repo (I can do it by myself when I have some spare time if you can't do it!).

Thanks! 👍

Passing datePickerModeAndroid={'default'} fixes the issue.
@mmazzarolo maybe this should be the default value instead of 'calendar'. What was the reason for using 'calendar' as the default value for this prop?

[mmazzarolo]

@bsonntag thank you for investigating on the issue.
Honestly, that prop comes from a previous PR, so I can't really answer your question.
Would you mind submitting a PR for fixing it? :)
