Answer 2

I had done tabhost related code with respect to displaying scores

    TabHost host = getTabHost();
    host.setup ();

    TabSpec allScoresTab = host.newTabSpec("allTab");
    allScoresTab.setIndicator(getResources().getString(R.string.all_scores), getResources().getDrawable(android.R.drawable.star_on));
    allScoresTab.setContent(R.id.ScrollViewAllScores);
    host.addTab(allScoresTab);

    TabSpec friendScoresTab = host.newTabSpec("friendsTab");
    friendScoresTab.setIndicator(getResources().getString(R.string.friends_scores), getResources().getDrawable(android.R.drawable.star_on));
    friendScoresTab.setContent(R.id.ScrollViewFriendScores);
    host.addTab(friendScoresTab);

    host.setCurrentTabByTag("allTab");
