How to change Android title bar text color programmatically?

In my app I populate title bar label from each activity but the text color in the activity and text color in title bar is same. How do I change the title bar text color to a different one?

    ActionBar ab = getActionBar();
    TextView tv = new TextView(getApplicationContext());
    LayoutParams lp = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
            LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, // Width of TextView
            LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
    tv.setLayoutParams(lp);
    tv.setTextColor(Color.RED);
    ab.setCustomView(tv);

you can do it from 2 places either in style.xml or proramatically
1.From style.xml : by Modifying TitleTextStyle -setting the android:textColour value as desired

2.Or in code Programatically: 

int titleId = Resources.getSystem().getIdentifier("action_bar_title", "id", "android");  
TextView yourTextView = (TextView)findViewById(titleId);
yourTextView.setTextColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.myColor));

You can implement a custom title bar (then you have to change the color of a simple TextView). Please check this: How to change the text on the action bar
