Button.setText not working

really Basic question but i can't get the Point.

I have a Button with an onclicklistener and following style:

<style name="dialog_button_scale">
    <item name="android:layout_width">@dimen/dialog_button_scale_width</item>
    <item name="android:layout_height">wrap_content</item>
    <item name="android:layout_alignParentTop">true</item>
    <item name="android:layout_toLeftOf">@id/dialog_button_sort</item>
    <item name="android:text">medium</item>
    <item name="android:textColor">@color/Black</item>
    <item name="android:onClick">imagebtnPerRow</item>

for testing i simple tried:

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.myActivity);
    Button myBtn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.dialog_button_scale);
    myBtn.setText("large");
    myBtn.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#FFFFFF"));
}

But nothing changes... Any suggestions?

Upgrade Please, before Upvoting an answere:

<Button
            android:id="@+id/dialog_button_scale"
            style="@style/dialog_button_scale" />

Both names are the same, but one for style and one for id..

Sorry for confusing you guys..

Update2 in my OnClick method i Change the text for example from medium to large and later i get the Text from the button and it is large but the UI isn't updating!

In Button myBtn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.dialog_button_scale); You are getting the style name instead of the Button @id of the xml layout.
