        window.clearFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_STATUS)
        window.statusBarColor = ContextCompat.getColor(this, colorId)

    // Update the SystemUiVisibility depending on whether we want a Light or Dark theme.
    window.decorView.systemUiVisibility = if (isStatusBarFontDark) lFlags and View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LIGHT_STATUS_BAR.inv() else lFlags or View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LIGHT_STATUS_BAR
