How can I center activity's action bar title in Android? I've seen MANY questions on SO for this specific topic. And every answer comes back to "using custom view" and having your own toolbar. I've found a solution that works without creating a custom view.

I want to make some ActionBar for my application using this library: https://github.com/johannilsson/android-actionbar but I don't know how to import it in my android project. There is no jar file. How can I do? Flo First, make sure you're using the latest version of the Android SDK, things have improved dramatically within the last few months.

I'm trying to create an ActionBar with 5 tabs and a button/imageview that will open NavigationDrawer from the right side.

I'm working on an App utilizing ActionBarSherlock with navigation tabs and multiple fragments. I have three navigation tabs each with one or more child views. I also have three option menu items with one or more child views. Everything works fine when I drill down the views within each Tab or option menu. Each initial subview is a ListFragment that calls a detail view or views. I run into problems when I start switching tabs while in the child views or the option menu fragment. My views start to overlap with the previous view underneath the new view. Here is my TabListener: class
