I am trying out AppCompat on Marshmallow. And I want to have a transparent status bar however it turns white. I've tried a couple solutions but they didn't work for me (Transparent status bar not working with windowTranslucentNavigation="false", Lollipop : draw behind statusBar with its color set to transparent). Here's related code.
My styles.xml
<style name="Bacon" parent="Theme.Bacon"/>
<style name="Theme.Bacon" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
<item name="colorPrimary">@color/theme_primary</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/theme_primary_dark</item>
<item name="colorAccent">@color/theme_accent</item>
<item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
<item name="windowActionBarOverlay">true</item>
<item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>
<item name="android:windowBackground">@color/background_material_light</item>
</style>
<style name="Theme.Bacon.Detail" parent="Bacon"/>
v21
<style name="Bacon" parent="Theme.Bacon">
<item name="android:windowDrawsSystemBarBackgrounds">true</item>
</style>
<style name="Theme.Bacon.Detail" parent="Bacon">
<item name="android:statusBarColor">@android:color/transparent</item>
</style>
Activity
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true" />
</FrameLayout>

I fixed my issue by changing my Activity layout from FrameLayout to RelativeLayout. Thanks everybody who tried to help!
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="@android:color/transparent">
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="@+id/pager"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="@color/theme_primary_dark"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true" />
</RelativeLayout>
