Android Question API 26 and how it affects EditText boxes and the Activity bar

UPDATE: I found the way to change the theme, as referenced at https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/version-safe-themes.87694/. The text in the EditText box is still a little close to the edges (and also a little darker), but it is better than it was without changing the theme in the manifest file.

I need to update my app and I am forced to move to API 26. But doing so gives me a taller Activity bar and the text in my EditText box is now right on the edges, which is hard to read. Also, now my buttons are dark gray and they used to be off-white. I want my buttons to be off-white again. My previous app version was set to minSDK = 4 with no target. Can anyone tell me how to make my new version look like my old version?

HI
If this is not a lot of work, copy everything to the new project. I have already copied two applications in this way.

hi
Create a new project preferably in B4 v8,3.
Copy each activity, each module to a new project.
Just as if you were creating an application from scratch.
