title: Android button background color
body: <p>I am trying to set the background color of a button in my app and I am unable to achieve the result that I want...</p>
  
  <p>The color that I am trying to set is <code>holo_green_light(#ff99cc00)</code>. In order to do it, I am using <code>setColorFilter(0xff99cc00, PorterDuff.Mode.MULTIPLY);</code></p>
  
  <p>The color that I get is not the <code>holo_green_light</code> but a mix of lightgrey and <code>holo_green_light</code>.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried using the <code>LightingColorFilter</code> without much success.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to do it programatically, so that the button appears like a button and not a flat rectangle with the color that I need.</p>
