Answer 1

You set this in the style resource like so

/res/values-v11/styles.xml

<style name="Theme.YourTheme" parent="Theme.Sherlock">
    <item name="android:actionModeCloseDrawable">@android:drawable/your_drawable</item>
</style>

/res/values/styles.xml   

<style name="Theme.YourTheme" parent="Theme.Sherlock">
    <item name="actionModeCloseDrawable">@android:drawable/your_drawable</item>
</style>

Note the missing android namespace before actionModeCloseDrawable for API < 11 style

Obviously the theme will be different if you are not using actionbarsherlock
