Popup menu with icon on Android

Question

My menu xml code menu.xml:

Answer 1

It's because when you use the showAsAction="never" attribute, the default overflow does not return your icon. You could create your own overflow like this:

<item android:title=""
        android:id="@+id/overflow"
        android:showAsAction="always"
        android:icon="@drawable/overflow_icon">
  <menu >    
    <item android:id="@+id/back"
          android:icon="@drawable/back1"
          android:title="Back" />

    <item android:id="@+id/My_Profile"
          android:icon="@drawable/myprofile"
          android:title="My Profile" />

    <item android:id="@+id/Job_Alert"
          android:icon="@drawable/jobalert4"
          android:title="Job Alert !" />

    <item android:id="@+id/saved_job"
          android:icon="@drawable/jobapplied"
          android:title="Saved Job"/>
    <item android:id="@+id/Logout"
          android:icon="@drawable/logout"
          android:title="Logout" /> 
  </menu>
</item>

before popupMenu.show(); use

try {
                    Field mFieldPopup=popupMenu.getClass().getDeclaredField("mPopup");
                    mFieldPopup.setAccessible(true);
                    MenuPopupHelper mPopup = (MenuPopupHelper) mFieldPopup.get(popupMenu);
                    mPopup.setForceShowIcon(true);
                } catch (Exception e) {

                }
