[android-developers] Setting theme for an activity

Hi All,
 
This is my  themes.xml file
 
<
resources>
<style name="Theme.Blue" parent="android:Theme">
<item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/bodyimg_blue</item>
<item name="android:colorBackground">@color/royalblue</item>
<item name="android:textColor">@color/midnightblue</item>
<item name="android:textViewStyle">@style/TextViewBlue</item>
</style>
<resources>
This is main activity code snippet
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setTheme(R.style.Theme_Blue);
setContentView(R.layout.
main_screen);
...
The background image is not getting loaded but the text color and textViewStyle got changed.
The background image remains the defalult one -blank screen.
If I am setting the theme in android manifest file then it works properly.
Can anybody tell me the reason for this?

I also found this issue on google code android:
