title: Changing default seekbar color
body: <p>If anybody knows what i'm doing wrong please let me know. 
  I created an android app and I am trying to change the default color of the seekbar from yellow to any other color. I created an xml file located in all 3 drawables and ran the project but the color of the seekbar still isnt changing color.
  Below is the code me and a fellow mate from irc have been working on.</p>
  
  <pre><code>    &lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt;
  &lt;layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"&gt;
  
  &lt;item android:id="@android:id/background"&gt;
      &lt;shape&gt;
          &lt;corners android:radius="5dip" /&gt;
          &lt;gradient
                  android:startColor="#ff9d9e9d"
                  android:centerColor="#ff5a5d5a"
                  android:centerY="0.75"
                  android:endColor="#ff747674"
                  android:angle="270"
          /&gt;
      &lt;/shape&gt;
  &lt;/item&gt;
  
  &lt;item android:id="@android:id/secondaryProgress"&gt;
      &lt;clip&gt;
          &lt;shape&gt;
              &lt;corners android:radius="5dip" /&gt;
              &lt;gradient
                      android:startColor="#80ffd300"

                      android:angle="270"
              /&gt;
          &lt;/shape&gt;
      &lt;/clip&gt;
  &lt;/item&gt;
  &lt;item
      android:id="@android:id/progress"

                  android:startColor="#FF0000"
                  android:centerColor="#FF0000"

                  android:endColor="#FF0000"
                  android:angle="270" /&gt;
          &lt;/shape&gt;

  <p>This is my java code</p>
  
  <pre><code>SeekBar seekBar = (SeekBar)findViewById(R.id.seekbar);

                  seekBarValue.setText(String.valueOf(progress+1998));  //sets the date to seekBar when in motion
              }
              @Override
