Navigation Drawer with backword compatibility android
A new version of the v4 support library (release 13) which contains support for the Navigation Drawer pattern.
Check out the below tutorial Links for Navigation Drawer which provides the compatibility library of Navigation Drawer with the implementation in it.
1) Sherlock Navigation Drawer
2) NavDrawerExampleAppCompat-v7
3) Navigation Drawer in Android

Hope this will help you.
Adding backward compatibility to navigation drawer

how to change the navigation drawer theme with backward compatibility
change background color of your list view or change theme of your list-view raw theme
how to implement backward compatible (API 8 and higher) Navigation Drawer?
You need to use getSupportActionBar() if you use the compatibility package.
Problems while displaying navigation drawer on Gingerbread version of android
because those are values you can replace them by your own custom attributes, to find more about them look at
https://github.com/android/platform_frameworks_base/blob/master/core/res/res/values/themes.xml#L123
which you can find corresponding values. you can create your own attribute files to run on any device without
any version restriction by using the values from above link and creating XML attribute file. in order to find
how to create attribute file look at google doc.
How to combine Navigation Drawer and Spinner [like in Google+ App]
Add the spinner to the NavigationBar.
The basic procedure to enable drop-down navigation is:
1.Create a SpinnerAdapter that provides the list of selectable items for the drop-down and the layout to use when drawing each item in the list.
2.Implement ActionBar.OnNavigationListener to define the behavior that occurs when the user selects an item from the list.
3.During your activity's onCreate() method, enable the action bar's drop-down list by calling setNavigationMode(NAVIGATION_MODE_LIST).
4.Set the callback for the drop-down list with setListNavigationCallbacks()
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/actionbar.html
Check the topic Adding Drop-down Navigation
Example:
public class MainActivity extends Activity implements OnNavigationListener
Then
getActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
getActionBar().setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_LIST);
SpinnerAdapter mSpinnerAdapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(this, R.array.planets_array,
android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
getActionBar().setListNavigationCallbacks(mSpinnerAdapter , this);
Then
@Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(int arg0, long arg1) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext()," text",1000).show();
return true;
}
Snap
Example:
public class MainActivity extends Activity implements ActionBar.OnNavigationListener {
private DrawerLayout mDrawerLayout;
private ListView mDrawerList;
public ActionBarDrawerToggle mDrawerToggle;
private CharSequence mDrawerTitle;

android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
actionBar.setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
actionBar.setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_LIST);
getActionBar().setListNavigationCallbacks(mSpinnerAdapter,this);
//mTitle = mDrawerTitle = getTitle();
mPlanetTitles = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.planets_array);
mDrawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
mDrawerList = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.left_drawer);
// mDrawerList.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
// set a custom shadow that overlays the main content when the drawer opens

// set up the drawer's list view with items and click listener
mDrawerList.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
R.layout.drawer_list_item, mPlanetTitles));
mDrawerList.setOnItemClickListener(new DrawerItemClickListener());
// enable ActionBar app icon to behave as action to toggle nav drawer
