    <!-- Customize your theme here. -->

    <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/primary_dark</item>
    <item name="colorAccent">@color/accent</item>
    <item name="android:textColorPrimary">@color/text_color</item>

    <item name="colorControlHighlight">@color/secondary_text</item>
    <item name="android:homeAsUpIndicator">@drawable/ic_menu</item>

</style>

and

<style name="tab" parent="@style/Widget.AppCompat.Light.ActionBar.TabText">
    <item name="android:textAllCaps">false</item>
</style>

fragment.java:

    tabHost = (MaterialTabHost) v.findViewById(R.id.tabHost);
    adapter = new TabsPagerAdapter(getChildFragmentManager(), entity);
    pager = (ViewPager) v.findViewById(R.id.pager_entitiy_detail);
    pager.setOffscreenPageLimit(adapter.getCount());
    pager.setAdapter(adapter);
    adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
    pager.setOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.SimpleOnPageChangeListener() {
        @Override
        public void onPageSelected(int position) {
            tabHost.setSelectedNavigationItem(position);
            Log.e("DashDetail", "");
        }
    });

    // insert all tabs from pagerAdapter data
    for (int i = 0; i < adapter.getCount(); i++) {
        tabHost.addTab(
                tabHost.newTab()
                        .setText(adapter.getPageTitle(i))
                        .setTabListener(this)
        );

    }

used above code for tab host and in adapter setting text but not getting lower case text.

Can you post your java code as well for tabs creation. – Shishram Oct 13 '15 at 08:09 — Shishram, Oct 13 '15 at 08:09

Try this in your for loop of adding tabs

try this

TextView tv =  (TextView) tabHost.getTabWidget().getChildAt(i).findViewById(android.R.id.title); 
tv.setAllCaps(false);

like this:--

    for (int i = 0; i < adapter.getCount(); i++) {
                tabHost.addTab(
                                 tabHost.newTab()
                                .setText(adapter.getPageTitle(i))
                                .setTabListener(this)
TextView tv =  (TextView) tabHost.getTabWidget().getChildAt(i).findViewById(android.R.id.title); 
tv.setAllCaps(false);
                );

or You can do it like below in your PagerAdapter

@Override
        public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
            Locale l = Locale.getDefault();
            switch (position) {
                case 0:
                    return "ONE".toLowerCase();
}
return null;
}

I hope it may help.
