Android Question Appcompat Customview Button White

[mcqueccu]

Hello, I am using appcompat for an application. I added some views through the customview and under customview properties -> button color set my color. But When i run the app, other views display fine but the BUTTON remains white. It doesnt change its color irrespective of the states... What am i doing wrong?

Hiding your code from us.

Without seeing what you have done and how we hardly cant help.

Hello, my problem still persist and it happens on my phone and emulator running android 4.4.2 and my phone running running android 4.1.2. The appcompat button is always gray and the colorPrimaryDark doesnt show.
On phones running android 5 it works well. What am I doing wrong

THEME Manifest

SetApplicationAttribute(android:theme, "@style/FDTheme")
CreateResource(values, theme.xml,
    <resources>
        <style name="FDTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
            <item name="colorPrimary">#FF445E</item>
           <item name="colorPrimaryDark">#CC041F</item>
           <item name="colorAccent">#FF445E</item>
        </style>
    </resources>
    )

The coloring of the buttons does not work correctly on devices running Android 4.x and below.

Is there a workaround for this? or I should use the normal buttons
