the lines of code that have problem are :

// enabling action bar app icon and behaving it as toggle button
mActionBar.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
mActionBar.setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
i use : style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar"
I have used the getSupportActionBar() but i haven't fount any solution

The cause of your issue is using MainActivity extend Activity with support theme style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar". It's incompatible things.
Which min sdk you need?
In your code having MainActivity extends Activity you don't need AppCompatTheme. Use name="AppTheme" parent="android:Theme.Light"
If you are using Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar, you should extend your Activity from AppCompatActivity, and use getSupportActionBar().
Instead of:
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
use:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
and instead of:
getActionBar().setTitle(mTitles);
use:
getSupportActionBar().setTitle(mTitles);

This problem might be caused by your theme. Check it again, and make sure that it parent with Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar.
<style name="MyTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
<item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
<item name="windowActionBar">true</item>
...
</style>
If your activity extends AppCompatActivity or ActionBarActivity, call getSupportActionBar().

Put assert getActionBar () != null; after mActionBar = getActionBar();

In my case, I forgot to init my Toolbar, so, before using getSupportActionBar, I had to do this:
appbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(appbar);
getSupportActionBar().setHomeAsUpIndicator(R.drawable.ic_nav_menu);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);

If you check this answer in 2019 like me , the problem is about your android manifest:
<application
android:theme="#style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar"/>
Check the documentation here:
https://developer.android.com/training/appbar/setting-up.html
You also take in mind the previous answer from TetianaDev:
Instead of:
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
use:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
and instead of:
getActionBar().setTitle(mTitles);
use:
getSupportActionBar().setTitle(mTitles);
This works for me.

You should try this one. I think it will work.
Toolbar toolbar = findViewById(R.id.toolbar1);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
mDrawerLayout = findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
mDrawerLayout = findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
mDrawerLayout.setDrawerShadow(R.drawable.rectagle_with_black_outer,
GravityCompat.START);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
mDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, mDrawerLayout,
toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_close,
R.string.navigation_drawer_close) {
public void onDrawerClosed(View view) {
invalidateOptionsMenu();
}
public void onDrawerOpened(View drawerView) {
invalidateOptionsMenu();
}
};

This is clearly not the problem of OP, but other people may find it useful: for me the solution was to call setContentView(R.layout.activity_main) before the configuration of actionbar.

Errors in Navigation Drawer Activity

I'm trying to create a navigation drawer for Android. I've followed these pages (this and this) but now I'm stuck.

I get different errors depending on the changes I make.
Like it is right now, I get
java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'void android.app.ActionBar.setTitle(java.lang.CharSequence)' on a null object reference
ActionBarActivity is deprecated so I'm not going to use it but if I change Activity to AppCompatActivity, I get
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: AppCompat does not support the current theme features
What am I doing wrong? Which is better to use: Activity, ActionBarActivity or AppCompatActivity? Thanks in advance
Thanks to Raghunandan I managed to fix this: I changed the Activity to AppCompatActivity and replaced getActionBar for getSupportActionBar. I don't have any more NPE

Change the Arrow Icon in the Drawer Menu?

I am using Android Studio. And I created a new activity with a navigation drawer.
But, It's showing the <- instead of the Hamburger Icon.
How can I modify my code to change <- to the Hamburger Icon????

use android.support.v7.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle instead of
android.support.v4.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle
you will get an error for the constructor of ActionBarDrawerToggle. Use the constructor for ActionBarDrawerToggle v7 with 4 parameters.
Also add this to your styles.xml
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light">
<item name="drawerArrowStyle">#style/DrawerArrowStyle</item>
</style>
<style name="DrawerArrowStyle" parent="Widget.AppCompat.DrawerArrowToggle">
<item name="spinBars">true</item>
</style>
4.Apply this theme to your application in the manifest.
Hope this helps.
Add Following code in Your theme.
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
<item name="drawerArrowStyle">#style/DrawerArrowStyle</item>
</style>

Navigation Drawer Application crashes on API 10

Hi I am creating a sample navigation drawer app using ActionBarActivity . My problem is my application is running fine in Android 4.0+ but crashes on Android 2.3.3 even after adding the appropriate support libraries. Thanks in advance.

Problem: my compiler was not showing that these android:attr/* are not supported in API level 10. I found a solution.
To support lower versions, instead of removing the following three parameters,
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceListItemSmall"
android:background="?android:attr/activatedBackgroundIndicator"
android:minHeight="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeightSmall"
You can actually replace them with equivalent values/resources.
The equivalent values can be obtained from https://github.com/android/platform_frameworks_base/blob/master/core/res/res/values/themes.xml
Now,
a) android:textAppearance="#android:style/TextAppearance.Medium"
b) Download a selector from https://github.com/habzy/Test0011_DialerPad/blob/master/res/drawable/list_item_activated_background.xml
In the above project browse the resources in hdpi,mdpi etc and get files named list_activated_holo.9.png
Finally
android:background="#drawable/activated_background_holo_dark"
c) From the equivalent values obtained , we know that listPreferredItemHeightSmall is 48dip
android:minHeight="48dip"

Tabbed navigation in a Fragment

So I have a navigation drawer that handles my fragments. In those fragments I want to implement tabbed navigation. I have searched high and low to find out if this is possible. But I cannot find if it si. From looking at things I don't think it is as the tabbed fragment implementation requires a FragmentActivity and my navigation drawer cannot use FragmentActivitys.
NavDrawers can inflate classes that extend Fragment but not FragmentActivity, which is why I'm thinking this is unachievable. The swipe views on the android developers documentation (http://developer.android.com/training/implementing-navigation/lateral.html) here is why I'm not convinced I can do this. Unless there is a different way to implement navdrawers than that of what I'm doing.
But I also know that Gmail implements something similar. They have a NavDrawer implementation with a feature of tabbed navigation -- you can swipe between emails. Which gives me some hope...
Any direction would be awesome.
Here is my navdrawer implementation, the biggest thing to note is that I'm not using the v4.support library, I'm using the more recent library:

NavigationDrawer using only Android Support Library

is there any example project which use only Android Support Library (revision 18) to implement Navigation Drawer on Android +2.2 without using any additional library (ABS etc.) ?

}
}
and of course i change minSdk to 8 but it still doesn't work.
First you need to extend ActionBarActivity instead of FragmentActivity
Second change your App Theme to #style/Theme.AppCompat or #style/Theme.AppCompat.Light
Third change every call to getActionBar() for getSupportActionBar() and invalidateOptionsMenu() for supportInvalidateOptionsMenu()
That should do, here is the google example using AppCompat-v7 i did to test it, I also used a custom adapter for the listview just ignore that :)
https://github.com/BradleyRL/NavDrawerExampleAppCompat-v7
all you have to do is just import the v4 support library in your project and you can just follow the example in the docs that you linked.
its the same thing for any version of android 2.2 and up, just substitute any fragment use with support fragment usage from the library
What makes you think it only works on API 14+? If it's the minSDKVersion in the Manifest in the downloadable example, I guess that's just to have the Holo Theme they use.
Just change minSDKVersion to 8 or so and fix what needs fixing to match it. The NavigationDrawer itself should work with SDKVersions down to 4 as it's in the v4 version of the support library.
