Answer 1

I found way to do that. In onCreate i put this

setTheme(Designs.getThemeNoActionBar(this));
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

get the theme from shared preferences and return theme without actionbar.

  public static int getThemeNoActionBar(Context context) {
        SharedPreferences sharedPreferences = context.getSharedPreferences("Designs", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
        int theme = sharedPreferences.getInt("theme", R.style.AppTheme);
        if (theme == nightModeTheme)
            return R.style.NightMode_NoActionBar;
        else if (theme == theme1)
            return R.style.Theme1_NoActionBar;
        else 
             return R.style.AppTheme_NoActionBar;
    }

In style res

<style name="AppTheme.NoActionBar">
    <item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
    <item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>

<style name="NightMode.NoActionBar">
    <item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
    <item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>

<style name="Theme1.NoActionBar">
    <item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
    <item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>
