Toolbar navigation icon never set
Currently you can use it, changing the order: (it seems to be a bug)
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.my_awesome_toolbar);setSupportActionBar(toolbar);toolbar.setNavigationIcon(R.drawable.ic_good);toolbar.setTitle("Title");toolbar.setSubtitle("Sub");toolbar.setLogo(R.drawable.ic_launcher);
Specific to the navigation icon, this is the correct order
// get the actionbar as Toolbar and set it upToolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.signIn_toolbar);setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
Inform the Toolbar to provide back navigation. This will set the icon to the default material icon
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
Later override the icon with the custom one, in my case the Holo back icon
toolbar.setNavigationIcon(R.drawable.ic_chevron_left_white_36dp);
(The answer to user802421)
private void setToolbar() { Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar); if (toolbar != null) { setSupportActionBar(toolbar); toolbar.setNavigationIcon(R.drawable.ic_action_back); toolbar.setNavigationOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { onBackPressed(); } }); }}
