How can I update the look of my Android app?

Question

I have got an Android app that I built a while ago and that was built for Android 2.3.3. The problem is that i looks very clunky as it uses those old 2.3.3 buttons and text edits.

My question: Is it possible to change the look to Android 4.0? I mean, can I update the app so that it looks different by just making minor tweaks?

You could try HoloEverywhere. It brings the default Holo dark/light Theme to Devices with Android 2.1 to 2.3 .

Try to use Theme.DeviceDefault for your theme. This will make your app to use Android 4.0 theme on devices with Android 4.
