How to Display Both Icon and Title of Action Inside Actionbar

ActionBar with icon & title

When I want to replace the action bar with toolbar in all activities I would override setContentView() method in BaseActivity. It looks like this:

    @Override
public void setContentView(@LayoutRes int layoutResID) {
    super.setContentView(layoutResID);
    View view = findViewById(R.id.toolbarContainer);
    if (view != null) {
        toolbar = (Toolbar) view.findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
        setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
        actionBar = getSupportActionBar();
        actionBar.setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
        actionBar.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
        progressBar = (ProgressBar) view.findViewById(R.id.progressBar);
        setTitle(getTitle());
    }
}

Add Icon to the left of the title in the action bar in android

Recommended way

getSupportActionBar().setHomeAsUpIndicator(R.drawable.ic_settings_24dp);// set drawable icon
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);

Handle icon click event

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {

    switch (item.getItemId()) {
        case android.R.id.home:
            Toast.makeText(this, "click..!!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            return true;
        default:
            return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);

    }
}

Show both logo and app name in action bar android

Solved adding

    getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(true);
    getSupportActionBar().setLogo(R.drawable.icona);
    getSupportActionBar().setDisplayUseLogoEnabled(true);

Using logo in actionbar is disabled by default in Android 5.0 Lollipop.
