title: How to change background color of child preference screen in honeycomb
body: <p>I have been searching for the solution for the last several days but could not find one.</p>
  
  <p>I need to change the background color of the right pane (I know how to change the color of the left parent preference). I created a new theme in manifest file.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;activity android:name=".PreferenceWithHeaders"
          android:label="@string/app_name"
          android:theme="@style/PreferencesTheme"&gt;
  &lt;/activity&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Below is the PreferencesTheme portion of styles.xml</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;style name="PreferencesTheme" parent="android:Theme.Holo"&gt;
      &lt;item name="android:windowBackground"&gt;@drawable/background&lt;/item&gt;
  &lt;/style&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am, however, unable to change the default gray background color of the child  <code>PreferenceScreen</code>which is on the right. Please take a look at the picture.</p>

  <p>I tried different things but they don't have any impact on the background color. Any pointers will be deeply appreciated!</p>
