Answer 1

View headerView=navigationView.getChildAt(0);
TextView tvName=(TextView)hView.findViewById(R.id.name);
TextView tvEmail=(TextView)hView.findViewById(R.id.email);

    tvName.setText(data);
    tvEmail.setText(data);

Answer 2

I had the same issue and was able to avoid it with this code:

    View header = LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.nav_header_main, null);
    navigationView.addHeaderView(header);
    TextView text = (TextView) header.findViewById(R.id.textView);
    text.setText("HELLO");

Answer 3

Orium answer works and this will work as well.

View header = navigationView.inflateHeaderView(R.layout.nav_header_main);
    TextView text = (TextView) header.findViewById(R.id.textView);
    texto.setText("HELLO");

Answer 4

Or if you use this attribute:

<android.support.desibn.widget.NavigationView>
    ...
    app:headerLayout="@layout/your_header_layout"/>

You can:

View header = mNavigationView.getHeaderView(0);
TextView title = (TextView) header.findViewById(R.id.your_title_id);
//Or something else

Answer 5

Now with the 23.1.1 release of the design support library, you can use

View header = navigationView.getHeaderView(0)
TextView text = (TextView) header.findViewById(R.id.textView);

Answer 6

The above answer is right but in kotlin, you need to use findViewById<View>

   val navigationHeader = navigation_view.getHeaderView(0)
        val navigationTitle = navigationHeader.findViewById<View>(R.id.txt_navigation_title) as TextView
        navigationTitle.text = "This is your header"
