If you look here:

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/refs/heads/master/core/java/android/widget/EdgeEffect.java

you'll see references (in the constructor) to R.drawable.overscroll_glow 
and R.drawable.overscroll_edge, without a theme indirection.

Those are included under <android 
sdk>/platforms/platform-17/data/res/drawable-xhdpi (the "-17" and "-xhdpi" 
can vary of course), and they are holo blue.

Now, is that what you actually see in the UI? It would appear so, e.g, 
lines 620 and 625 below:

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/refs/heads/master/core/java/android/widget/AbsListView.java

"You see that Mr. Anderson?... That is the color of inevitability..." 
(lame, I know)
