Question

I have created settings button in Toolbar, now I need to navigate the screen to settings screen, when ever i click the settings button.

Answer 1

Try this:

@Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.your_menu_xml, menu);
        return true;
    }

 public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        switch (item.getItemId()){
            case R.id.action_settings:
                //Strar activity here
                break;
            default:
                return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
        }
        return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
    }

Answer 2

You can use onOptionsItemSelected function. This reference will help you do so.

Answer 3

you should override the onCreateOptionsMenu and onOptionsItemSelected methods and take that particular id from menuitem and navigate to settings screen.

@Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.your_menu_xml, menu);
        return true;
    }

@Override
 public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        switch (item.getItemId()){
            case R.id.action_settings:
                Intent i = new Intent(yourActivity.this, SettingsActivity.class)
                startActivity(i);
                break;
            default:
                return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
        }
        return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
    }
