How to set tint for an image view programmatically in android?

Need to set tint for an image view... I am using it the following way:

imageView.setColorFilter(R.color.blue,android.graphics.PorterDuff.Mode.MULTIPLY);

But it doesn't change...

UPDATE:
@ADev has newer solution in his answer here, but his solution requires newer support library - 25.4.0 or above.

You can change the tint, quite easily in code via:

imageView.setColorFilter(Color.argb(255, 255, 255, 255)); // White Tint

If you want color tint then

imageView.setColorFilter(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.COLOR_YOUR_COLOR), android.graphics.PorterDuff.Mode.MULTIPLY);

For Vector Drawable

imageView.setColorFilter(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.COLOR_YOUR_COLOR), android.graphics.PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN);

Most answers refer to using setColorFilter which is not what was originally asked.

The user @Tad has his answer in the right direction but it only works on API 21+.

To set the tint on all Android versions, use the ImageViewCompat:

ImageViewCompat.setImageTintList(imageView, ColorStateList.valueOf(yourTint));

Note that yourTint in this case must be a "color int". If you have a color resource like R.color.blue, you need to load the color int first:

ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.blue);

This worked for me

mImageView.setColorFilter(ContextCompat.getColor(getContext(), R.color.green_500));
