How to change or decorate actionbar in swipetab?

I'm doing SwipeTab android project. (picture below) enter image description here

So how can I replace Tab1,2,3 by another icon? And how can I change color or decorate action bar? My code here:

actionbar.setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_TABS);
    actionbar.addTab(actionbar.newTab().setText("Tab1").setTabListener(this));
    actionbar.addTab(actionbar.newTab().setText("Tab2").setTabListener(this));
    actionbar.addTab(actionbar.newTab().setText("Tab3").setTabListener(this));
    viewpager.setOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.OnPageChangeListener() {

You can setup icon as follows , 

            actionBar.addTab(
                actionBar.newTab()
                        .setText(your text)
                        .setIcon(getResources().getDrawable(<your icon>))
                        .setTabListener(this));

And you can change the color by as follows, Create a color xml including defined color and put that into drawable folder. 

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   <color xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" 
    android:color="color code">
 </color>

then - for action bar only

actionBar.setBackgroundDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(file name));

for tabs only

actionBar.setStackedBackgroundDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(file name));

Add icon in this manner, using setIcon method

 actionBar.addTab( actionBar.newTab()
                                    .setText(null)
                                    .setIcon(R.drawable.activity)
                                    .setTabListener(this));
