For this you must use Custom Tabs ,here is the Code try this :

  tabHost= getTabHost();
  tabHost.addTab(tabHost.newTabSpec("tab1").setContent(new Intent(this, Activity2.class)).setIndicator(prepareTabView("Names",R.drawable.icon)));

where prepareTabView is method that Inflate View. Then Inflate a view like this :

    private View prepareTabView(String text, int resId) {
         View view = LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.tabs, null);
         ImageView iv = (ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.TabImageView);
         TextView tv = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.TabTextView);
         iv.setImageResource(resId);
         tv.setText(text);
         return view;
    }

Where tabs XML will look like this :
