getColor Error in API Level 23

The old method is deprecated starting in API 23, and the new method only exists in API 23+. You are attempting to call the new method on a device running API <23.

You can either perform an API level check and call the appropriate method, or you can use ContextCompat.getColor(Context, int) from the support-v4 library.

Try this..

int color = Color.parseColor(getResources().getString(R.color.color_name));

instead

int color = getResources().getColor(R.color.color_name);
