How to create a customized indeterminate progress bar in android? I described it below to show you how you can use a customized progress bar in android
To create a customized ProgressBar in android I've used this method
1- create an image file (custom_blue.png) which is replace with default indeterminate ProgressBar
2- create a xml file into drawable with this code(my_progress_indeterminate.xml):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<animated-rotate xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:drawable="@drawable/custom_blue"
android:pivotX="50%"
android:pivotY="50%" />
3- insert a ProgressBar into your layout
<ProgressBar
android:id="@+id/custom_progress"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:indeterminateBehavior="repeat"
android:indeterminateDrawable="@drawable/my_progress_indeterminate"
android:maxHeight="24dp"
android:maxWidth="24dp"
android:minHeight="24dp"
android:minWidth="24dp" />
4- that's all. now use this ProgressBar as before in your java Activity
