This styling guide says that this will work for android 3.0+ (API level 11).
For Android 3.0 and higher only

When supporting Android 3.0 and higher only, you can define the action 
bar's background like this:

res/values/themes.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <!-- the theme applied to the application or activity -->
    <style name="CustomActionBarTheme"
           parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light.DarkActionBar">
        <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/MyActionBar</item>
    </style>

    <!-- ActionBar styles -->
    <style name="MyActionBar"
           parent="@android:style/Widget.Holo.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse">
        <item name="android:background">@drawable/actionbar_background</item>
    </style>
</resources>


https://developer.android.com/training/basics/actionbar/styling.html


However I set my min sdk level to 11 and put that code in 
values-v11/styles.xml and it gives me the error:

@android:style/Widget.Holo.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse requires API level 
14 (current min is 11).

Why isn't this working? I want to customize the title bar colors, along 
with everything else. How do I do it for Android 3.0+ and above?
