Android tab text invisible

I've developed a simple application with TabView. There are two tabs, each tab has a short text and an icon. I've made the icons in the way the tutorials say. The application looks perfect on the emulator(s), but after loading to the real device (Sony Er开发者_JAVA百科icsson Xperia X10 Mini, 2.1update1) there is a problem with displaying active tab. There is an icon barely visible and no text. Now, I know I can develop custom Tabs, but I'd rather not do that.

What else can I do to make the tab look correct?

It could be a styling issue with the specific android build on your device, try taking a look at this link and play with the styling options.
