I copied this from one of my apps, so there's prob a few extra attributes, but should give you the idea. This is from the layout that has the progress bar:
<ProgressBar
android:id="@+id/ProgressBar"
style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleHorizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:indeterminate="false"
android:maxHeight="10dip"
android:minHeight="10dip"
android:progress="50"
android:progressDrawable="@drawable/greenprogress" />
Then create a new drawable with something similar to the following (In this case greenprogress.xml
):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:id="@android:id/background">
<shape>
<corners android:radius="5dip" />
<gradient
android:angle="270"
android:centerColor="#ff5a5d5a"
android:centerY="0.75"
android:endColor="#ff747674"
android:startColor="#ff9d9e9d" />
</shape>
</item>
<item android:id="@android:id/secondaryProgress">
<clip>
<shape>
<corners android:radius="5dip" />
<gradient
android:angle="270"
android:centerColor="#80ffb600"
android:centerY="0.75"
android:endColor="#a0ffcb00"
android:startColor="#80ffd300" />
</shape>
</clip>
</item>
<item android:id="@android:id/progress">
<clip>
<shape>
<corners android:radius="5dip" />
<gradient
android:angle="270"
android:endColor="#008000"
android:startColor="#33FF33" />
</shape>
</clip>
</item>
</layer-list>
You can change up the colors as needed, this will give you a green progress bar.
