How to change default color to Tab Host

I am using 2.2 SDK version. and i used TabHost to display the activity in tab view format. when i install application in mobile phone(Version 2.2.1), the tab host color has been changed into yellow color. Even i dint give any color to TabHost. i dont know why the color has been changed. The same application when i run in emulator, it displays default color(ie) gray and black. can anyone faced and solved this issue pls guide me. Here the code ` mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("one").setIndicator("classA").setContent(new Intent(this, classA.class))); mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("two").setIndicator("classB").setContent(new Intent(this, classB.class))); mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("three").setIndicator("classC").setContent(new Intent(this, classc.class)));`
Answer:

In default android tab bar color will be in Grey, you can easily change the color of the tab bar. Use the below line of code to change the color of Tab tabHost.getTabWidget().getChildAt(i).setBackgroundColor(Color.RED); or tabHost.getTabWidget().getChildAt(0).setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#4E4E9C")); For further Reference you can refer http://www.androidpeople.com/android-tabhost-tutorial-%E2%80%93-part-2.
