Only changing title background color without affecting any properties of other controls (android)

Question

I have designed a custom theme , because I wanted to change title background color. However while designing the theme, I have set android:parent="android:Theme.Light"

After doing this, I found out that properties of progressbar control, alertdialog, tabhost have changed like background color, height , width,etc.

It was working fine when I was not using the custom theme.

So my question is how to use the properties of android default theme while only changing the title background color.

Thanks,

Once You have build the Theme for the Title you can use this Custom Theme in AndroidManifest.xml in ypur Activity Tag

like

android:theme="@style/customTheme"
