Answer 1

You can just set your launcher activitys label as the app name and then set the actionBar title manually in code for that activity

getSupportActionBar().setTitle(R.string.title_user_login);

This is of course if you are using an action bar. Normal activity title headings are ugly anyway!

EDIT: saying that you can see the text change on start up!
