btn_primary.xml
btn_primary_dark.xml
btn_light.xml
..

and folder drawable-v21

btn_primary.xml
btn_primary_dark.xml

..

btn_primary.xml in drawable folder

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

i figure out something, turns out error because xml pre lollipop doesn't recognize <solid android:color="?colorControlHighlight" /> so i just change with <solid android:color="@color/accent" />

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:state_pressed="true">
        <shape android:shape="rectangle">
            <corners android:radius="3dip" />
            <solid android:color="@color/accent" />
        </shape>
    </item>
    <item>
        <shape android:shape="rectangle">
            <corners android:radius="3dip" />
            <solid android:color="@color/primary" />
        </shape>
    </item>
</selector>
