Your layout `xml` file you are using with your current activity has most of the design attributes like color. – Anirudh Ramanathan Aug 25 '12 at 04:21

Try the following code.
Fetch the id from the Android resource (just like we fetch id from R.java)
int titleId = Resources.getSystem().getIdentifier("action_bar_title", "id", "android");
Now you use TextView
with the id we fetch.
TextView textView = (TextView)findViewById(titleId);
textView.setTextColor(colorId);
Have a look at to Advance Styles in Android.
