<style name="Theme.Bloodpressure" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light">
        <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/ActionBar.Solid.Bloodpressure</item>
    </style>


    <style name="ActionBar.Solid.Bloodpressure" parent="@android:style/Widget.Holo.Light.ActionBar.Solid">

How do I show the holo light menu icon instead of the current black one?

Answer 1

The current icon is the Holo Light overflow icon.

You can override the overflow button style of the Holo Light-theme with android:actionOverflowButtonStyle

<style name="Theme.Bloodpressure" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light">
    <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/ActionBar.Solid.Bloodpressure</item>

    /* Use Holo Dark style for the overflow icon*/
    <item name="android:actionOverflowButtonStyle">@android:style/ActionBar.Holo.ActionButton.Overflow</item>
</style>
