AppCompat-v7:21 provides a very useful way of dealing with pressed/focused/activated states maintaining backwards compatibility downto API-7, but there's a small issue (big for some) with the default selectableItemBackground: It uses some PNGs and/or default values for API<21.

The main reason is that android drawable resource definitions (prior API 21) CANNOT use theme attributes at all, so there's no way of making something like:
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
        <solid android:color="?attr/colorControlHighlight" />
</shape>

For this, I've put this simple mockup on how to give your app better drawables that the appcompat defaults.

Note for me to remember how to set Android Home on Mac 

Open Terminal and type in..
nano ~/.bash_profile
Add the below paths
The path should be where your android installation is located
export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/username/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=${PATH}:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
Save file and type in terminal...
source ~/.bash_profile
