  <p>How to change the text color and background of the menu item?</p>
  
  <p>my files:</p>
  
  <p>styles.xml</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?&gt;
  &lt;resources&gt;
    &lt;style  name="MyStyle"
            parent="@android:style/Theme.DeviceDefault"&gt;
    &lt;/style&gt;
  &lt;/resources&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>2.menu.xml</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?&gt;
  &lt;menu tools.context=".MainActivity"
        xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
        xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"&gt;
  
    &lt;item android:title="@string/name"
          android:showAsAction="always"
          android:id="@+id/iname"/&gt;
  
    &lt;item android:title="@string/email"
          android:showAsAction="always"
          android:id="@+id/iemail"/&gt;
  &lt;/menu&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>adding this line does not give anything:</p>
  
  <pre><code>android:textColor="@android:color/black"
  </code></pre>
