Question

I am using Theme.Holo in My Current android app.

Above is the overflow UI from my current theme.

I want to customize overflow menu’s background color to RGB (245, 243, 239), and the font color to RGB (64, 64, 64).

Following is the style.xml I am using

<style name="CustomActivityTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo">
    <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/CustomActivityTheme.ActionBar</item>
    <item name="android:actionMenuTextColor">#000000</item>
    <item name="android:divider">@drawable/action_bar_div</item>
    <item name="android:actionOverflowButtonStyle">@style/MyActionButtonOverflow</item>
</style>

<style name="MyActionButtonOverflow" parent="android:style/Widget.Holo.ActionButton.Overflow">
    <item name="android:src">@drawable/overflow</item>
</style>

<style name="CustomActivityTheme.ActionBar" parent="@android:style/Widget.Holo.Light.ActionBar">
    <item name="android:background">@drawable/actionbar_bg</item>
    <item name="android:titleTextStyle">@style/CustomActivityTheme.ActionBar.Text</item>
    <item name="android:subtitleTextStyle">@style/CustomActivityTheme.ActionBar.Text</item>
</style>

<style name="CustomActivityTheme.ActionBar.Text" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance">
    <item name="android:textColor">#000000</item>
    <item name="android:textSize">16sp</item>
</style>

<style name="activated" parent="android:Theme.Holo">
    <item name="android:background">?android:attr/activatedBackgroundIndicator</item>
</style>

<!-- style for removing the floating dialog -->
<style name="CustomDialogTheme">
    <item name="android:windowIsFloating">false</item>
    <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>

<!-- style for transparent image resource  activity -->

<style name="Theme.Transparent" parent="android:Theme">
    <item name="android:windowIsTranslucent">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowBackground">@android:color/transparent</item>
    <item name="android:windowContentOverlay">@null</item>
    <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowIsFloating">false</item>
    <item name="android:backgroundDimEnabled">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowAnimationStyle">@style/MyAnimation.Window</item>
</style>

<!-- Animations for a non-full-screen window or activity. -->
<style name="MyAnimation.Window" parent="@android:style/Animation.Dialog">
    <item name="android:windowEnterAnimation">@anim/grow_from_middle</item>
    <item name="android:windowExitAnimation">@anim/shrink_to_middle</item>
</style>

<!-- style for transparent audio and video resource  activity -->

<style name="Theme.Transparent_Player" parent="android:Theme">
    <item name="android:windowIsTranslucent">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowBackground">@android:color/transparent</item>
    <item name="android:windowContentOverlay">@null</item>
    <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowIsFloating">false</item>
    <item name="android:backgroundDimEnabled">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowAnimationStyle">@style/MyPlayerAnimation.Window</item>
</style>

<!-- Animations for a non-full-screen window or activity. -->
<style name="MyPlayerAnimation.Window" parent="@android:style/Animation.Dialog">
    <item name="android:windowEnterAnimation">@anim/grow_from_action_bar</item>
    <item name="android:windowExitAnimation">@anim/shrink_to_action_bar</item>
</style>

How can I customize theme to match overflow menu’s background color to RGB (245, 243, 239), and the font color to RGB (64, 64, 64) in above code?

Thanks in advance..

Try this:

<style name="CustomActivityTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo">
    ...
    <item name="android:popupMenuStyle">@style/MyPopupMenu</item>
    ...
</style>

<style name="MyPopupMenu" parent="android:style/Widget.Holo.Light.ListPopupWindow">
    <item name="android:background">#f5fdef</item> 
</style>
