How to change checkbox checked color programmatically

I'm using the CheckBox view in Android. I would like to change the color of it when its checked. Right now its that default dark green color when its checked and I would like to change it to something different and when not checked, just be the default colors.

Here's my code:

CheckBox c = new CheckBox(this);
            c.setId(View.generateViewId());

            c.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new CompoundButton.OnCheckedChangeListener() {
                @Override
                public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton buttonView, boolean isChecked) {
                    if(buttonView.isChecked())
                    {
                        buttonView.setBackgroundColor(Color.rgb(64, 131, 207));
                    }
                    if(!buttonView.isChecked())
                    {
                        buttonView.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
                    }

                }
            });

The problem is that it does not change the right thing. Any ideas on how to change this color?
