Up arrow does not show after calling ActionBarDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(false)

Question

The title says it all. When I call the mDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(false) I don\'t want the \"hamburger\" icon to be shown anymore but

Answer 1

I also face the same problem (it's either the < icon or the menu icon shown, but not both) and finally found what's working for me.

Additional Info : I'm using Support library 25, so it might play a factor in here as I didn't test with previous library version. I'm using Toolbar set as action bar, and set up the ActionDrawerToggle with method that has Toolbar parameter in it. I only tested this on Android M device, though.

The code below is how I enabled/disable the navigation drawer (function is resides in NavigationDrawer Fragment).

public void setDrawerEnabled(final boolean enabled) {

    int lockMode = enabled ? DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_UNLOCKED :
            DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_LOCKED_CLOSED;

    mDrawerLayout.setDrawerLockMode(lockMode);
    mDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(enabled);

    ActionBar actionBar = null;
    if (getActivity() instanceof AppCompatActivity) {
        actionBar = ((AppCompatActivity) getActivity()).getSupportActionBar();
    }

    if (actionBar != null) {
        actionBar.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(!enabled);
        actionBar.setDefaultDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(!enabled);
        actionBar.setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(enabled);
        actionBar.setHomeButtonEnabled(enabled);
    }

    mDrawerToggle.syncState();

    mDrawerToggle.setToolbarNavigationClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {

            if (!mDrawerToggle.isDrawerIndicatorEnabled())
                getActivity().onBackPressed();

        }
    });
}

In my case, setting the actionBar.setHomeButtonEnabled(enabled); forces it to draw the menu icon (or else, in my case, when first fragment is resumed, there won't be any navigation icon), although it will stop rendering the < icon for other fragments. Setting the mDrawerToggle.syncState(); after changing the navigation icons remedy that for me, though. Now both icons are shown correctly!

I hope this helps someone!
