Android EditText Cursor Colour appears to be white

If you have created a custom Android EditText class and you see that the color of the Cursor appears to be white you can change it using textCursorDrawable attribute.

You need to set android:textCursorDrawable value as @null, this will set the cursor color as that of the Text.

Do note that android:textCursorDrawable requires minimum SDKI level to be 12 or above.
