I have been using actionbarsherlock and I have been having problems with setting the background, This is how I have set the background

BitmapDrawable actionbar_background =(BitmapDrawable)getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.actionbar);
        actionbar_background.setTileModeY(TileMode.REPEAT);
        getSupportActionBar().setBackgroundDrawable(actionbar_background);
        getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);

But the problem is that the up button seems to have a shade or tint in the background and it really looks ugly in a real device
this is what I mean:

Can anyone suggest what is the problem

Thanks in advance

    Removing actionbar_background.setTileModeY(TileMode.REPEAT); seems to solve the problem, the actionbar aldready knows to repeat the image.

    Although I am still not sure how setTilemodeY was causing the problem. Anyone with an explnation is welcomed
