When developing and Android app, you will at some point want to set the background color of a View. When way to do this is the viewObj.setBackgroundColor(int colorId). To get the correct colorId from a hexadecimal value, use the following.

import android.graphics.Color; .... int colorId = Color.parseColor("#a6a4a4");
