Android change ProgressBar thickness

I am using a circular ProgressBar in my app, but it looks very thick. It does not look how it should on Android > 4.

When I create a new project and use the ProgressBar I get the correct thickness. Any ideas on why this is happening?

<ProgressBar
    style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleLarge"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center" />

The progress bar looks the "modern" way when the application's theme is Theme.Holo (or one that is derived from it, such as Theme.Holo.Light, &c).

If your application is for API 11+, then just use Holo. To do this, you just need to change the android:theme attribute in the <application> element in the AndroidManifest.xml file. Otherwise, you'll need to implement a theme selector, as described in the Android Developer Guides: Select a theme based on platform version
