You could create your own XML layout for the datepicker as in the example here.

Not sure how well this will play with your activity if it is extending FragmentActivity, but should give you a start in the right direction.

Go to res > values > themes.xml and add an item inside style tag with attribute "android:textColorPrimary" and set the color you want.

<item name="android:textColorPrimary">@color/white</item>
