I came to exactly the same conclusion. If you can't make the ActionBar show on the screen it is most likely either :

• window has no title; ActionBar is essentially a glorified title bar, thus no title= no ActionBar, although this is nowhere mentioned in the docs

• you tried to call the getActionBar() method prior setting the content view in the activity. In this case, this method returns null. Again, nowhere mentioned in the docs, and if you try to construct/modify the ActionBar as a part of the custom view constructor, you are out of luck.
