我建议你为TextInputLayout做风格主题，只改变强调色。设置父主题为你的应用程序基础主题:

 <style name="MyTextInputLayout" parent="MyAppThemeBase">
     <item name="colorAccent">@color/colorPrimary</item>
 </style>

 <android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
  android:layout_width="fill_parent"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
  android:theme="@style/MyTextInputLayout">

我尝试使用android:textColorHint在android.support.design.widget. textinputlayout它工作得很好。

        <android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:textColorHint="@color/colorAccent">

            <EditText
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:hint="Hello"
                android:imeActionLabel="Hello"
                android:imeOptions="actionUnspecified"
                android:maxLines="1"
                android:singleLine="true"/>

        </android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>

试试下面的代码，它在正常状态下工作

 <android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
     android:layout_width="match_parent"
     android:layout_height="wrap_content"
     android:theme="@style/TextLabel">

     <android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatEditText
         android:layout_width="match_parent"
         android:layout_height="wrap_content"
         android:hint="Hiiiii"
         android:id="@+id/edit_id"/>

 </android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>

在样式文件夹TextLabel代码

 <style name="TextLabel" parent="TextAppearance.AppCompat">
    <!-- Hint color and label color in FALSE state -->
    <item name="android:textColorHint">@color/Color Name</item> 
    <item name="android:textSize">20sp</item>
    <!-- Label color in TRUE state and bar color FALSE and TRUE State -->
    <item name="colorAccent">@color/Color Name</item>
    <item name="colorControlNormal">@color/Color Name</item>
    <item name="colorControlActivated">@color/Color Name</item>
 </style>

设置为应用程序的主题，它只突出显示状态

 <item name="colorAccent">@color/Color Name</item>

更新:

UnsupportedOperationException:不能转换为颜色:类型=0x2在api 16或以下

解决方案

你在使用材料组件库吗

你可以在你的主题中添加以下几行

 <item name="colorPrimary">@color/your_color</item> // Activated State
 <item name="colorOnSurface">@color/your_color</item> // Normal State

或者你想要不同的颜色在正常状态和激活状态和自定义遵循下面的代码

<style name="Widget.App.TextInputLayout" parent="Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox">
    <item name="materialThemeOverlay">@style/ThemeOverlay.App.TextInputLayout</item>
    <item name="shapeAppearance">@style/ShapeAppearance.App.SmallComponent</item> //Changes the Shape Apperance
    <!--<item name="hintTextColor">?attr/colorOnSurface</item>-->   //When you added this line it will applies only one color in normal and activate state i.e colorOnSurface color
</style>

<style name="ThemeOverlay.App.TextInputLayout" parent="">
    <item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>  //Activated color
    <item name="colorOnSurface">@color/colorPrimary</item>    //Normal color
    <item name="colorError">@color/colorPrimary</item>        //Error color

    //Text Appearance styles
    <item name="textAppearanceSubtitle1">@style/TextAppearance.App.Subtitle1</item>
    <item name="textAppearanceCaption">@style/TextAppearance.App.Caption</item>

    <!--Note: When setting a materialThemeOverlay on a custom TextInputLayout style, don’t forget to set editTextStyle to either a @style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputEditText.* style or to a custom one that inherits from that.
    The TextInputLayout styles set materialThemeOverlay that overrides editTextStyle with the specific TextInputEditText style needed. Therefore, you don’t need to specify a style tag on the edit text.-->
    <item name="editTextStyle">@style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputEditText.OutlinedBox</item>
</style>

<style name="TextAppearance.App.Subtitle1" parent="TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Subtitle1">
    <item name="fontFamily">@font/your_font</item>
    <item name="android:fontFamily">@font/your_font</item>
</style>

<style name="TextAppearance.App.Caption" parent="TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Caption">
    <item name="fontFamily">@font/your_font</item>
    <item name="android:fontFamily">@font/your_font</item>
</style>

<style name="ShapeAppearance.App.SmallComponent" parent="ShapeAppearance.MaterialComponents.SmallComponent">
    <item name="cornerFamily">cut</item>
    <item name="cornerSize">4dp</item>
</style>

添加下面的行到您的主题，否则您可以设置样式textinputlayout在您的xml

<item name="textInputStyle">@style/Widget.App.TextInputLayout</item>

<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
    android:hint="Hint"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:theme="@style/TextInputLayoutHint">

    <androidx.appcompat.widget.AppCompatEditText
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:inputType="text"
        android:maxLines="1"
        android:paddingTop="@dimen/_5sdp"
        android:paddingBottom="@dimen/_5sdp"
        android:textColor="#000000"
        android:textColorHint="#959aa6" />

</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

res /价值/ styles.xml

<style name="TextInputLayoutHint" parent="">
    <item name="android:textColorHint">#545454</item>
    <item name="colorControlActivated">#2dbc99</item>
    <item name="android:textSize">11sp</item>
</style>

  <style name="AppTheme2" parent="AppTheme">
    <!-- Customize your theme here. -->
    <item name="colorControlNormal">#fff</item>
    <item name="colorControlActivated">#fff</item></style>    

将此添加到styles并将TextInputLayout Theam设置为App2，它将工作;)

现在，简单地使用colorAccent和colorPrimary就可以完美地工作了。
