now create own custom action bar custom_actionbar.xml

<relativelayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="50dp" android:background="#caefee" android:orientation="horizontal" > <imagebutton android:id="@+id/home" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:src="@drawable/home" android:contentdescription="@string/home" android:background="@null" android:layout_margin="10dp" android:layout_alignparenttop="true" android:layout_alignparentleft="true" android:text="@string/home" /> <textview android:id="@+id/titletext" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_alignparenttop="true" android:layout_centerhorizontal="true" android:layout_margin="10dp" android:text="@string/app_name" android:textsize="25sp" /> <imagebutton android:id="@+id/settings" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_alignparentright="true" android:layout_alignparenttop="true" android:background="@null" android:layout_margin="10dp" android:contentdescription="@string/settings" android:src="@drawable/settings" android:text="@string/settings" /> </relativelayout>
