Android - iphone style tabhost

Solution
I would suggest you guys to not change the default look and feel of the tabs, because users on android devices have their own user experience, and you will negate that past experience, so don't force them to learn new tabs experience (because users on mobile are so lazy to learn new things, usually they rely on their past experience.)
See Pure Android for more.
However if you want to go ahead, I've customized the default `Android` Tabs to be look like `iPhone` tabs. Which is simple and features default `Android` tabs' ui components (`̶T̶a̶b̶H̶o̶s̶t̶`, `̶T̶a̶b̶W̶i̶d̶g̶e̶t̶`).

This sample has been upgraded to use `TabLayout` and `ViewPager`

I have also cutomized the tabhost to look like Raised Center Tab.

Problem
Is it possible to style the Android Tabhost to look like that of the iPhone? If not, is there any open source code that can show how to create Bottom Tabs for Android ? (source: appshopper.com)
