How to change Bitmap image color in android?

I tried Josip's answer but wouldn't work for me, regardless of whether the offset parameter was 1 or 0 - the drawn bitmap just appeared in original colour.

However, this did work:

// You have to copy the bitmap as any bitmaps loaded as drawables are immutable
Bitmap bm = ImageLoader.getInstance().loadImageSync("drawable://" + drawableId, o)
            .copy(Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888, true);

Paint paint = new Paint();
ColorFilter filter = new PorterDuffColorFilter(ContextCompat.getColor(this, R.color.COLOR_1_DARK), PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN);
paint.setColorFilter(filter);

Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bm);
canvas.drawBitmap(bm, 0, 0, paint);

Update 1

Whilst the above works well and is useful in a lot of cases, if you just want to change the main colour of an ImageView drawable, which the op did, you can just use:

imgView.setColorFilter(ContextCompat.getColor(this, R.color.COLOR_1_DARK));

If you need more flexibility or this doesn't give the desired effect, there's an overload that allows you to change the PorterDuff Mode until you get what you're after:

imgView.setColorFilter(ContextCompat.getColor(this, R.color.COLOR_1_DARK), PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_ATOP);

Update 2

Another good use case I've had for this lately is customizing the appearance of a Google map v2 marker icon. In order to use 2 graphics to allow (for example) small/large icons on a marker, but also a range of colours on those 2 graphics by changing the colour of them dynamically. In my case I was doing this inside a ClusterRenderer as the markers were also clustered, but this can be used with a regular map marker the same way:

@Override
protected void onBeforeClusterItemRendered(MyClusterItem item, MarkerOptions markerOptions) {
    try {
        int markerColor = item.getColor();

        Bitmap icon;

        if (item.isFeatured()) {
            // We must copy the bitmap or we get an exception "Immutable bitmap passed to Canvas constructor"
            icon = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(context.getResources(),
                    R.drawable.icon_marker_large).copy(Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888, true);
        } else {
            // We must copy the bitmap or we get an exception "Immutable bitmap passed to Canvas constructor"
            icon = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(context.getResources(),
                    R.drawable.icon_marker_small).copy(Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888, true);
        }

        Paint paint = new Paint();
        ColorFilter filter = new PorterDuffColorFilter(ContextCompat.getColor(context, markerColor), PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN);
        paint.setColorFilter(filter);

        Canvas canvas = new Canvas(icon);
        canvas.drawBitmap(icon, 0, 0, paint);

        markerOptions.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.fromBitmap(icon));
    } catch (Exception ex) {
        ex.printStackTrace();
    }
}

I got kind of solution.

    Bitmap sourceBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imgPath);
    float[] colorTransform = {
            0, 1f, 0, 0, 0, 
            0, 0, 0f, 0, 0,
            0, 0, 0, 0f, 0, 
            0, 0, 0, 1f, 0};

    ColorMatrix colorMatrix = new ColorMatrix();
    colorMatrix.setSaturation(0f); //Remove Colour 
    colorMatrix.set(colorTransform); //Apply the Red

    ColorMatrixColorFilter colorFilter = new ColorMatrixColorFilter(colorMatrix);
    Paint paint = new Paint();
    paint.setColorFilter(colorFilter);   

    Display display = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay(); 

    Bitmap resultBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(sourceBitmap, 0, (int)(display.getHeight() * 0.15), display.getWidth(), (int)(display.getHeight() * 0.75));            

    image.setImageBitmap(resultBitmap);

    Canvas canvas = new Canvas(resultBitmap);
    canvas.drawBitmap(resultBitmap, 0, 0, paint);
