I have seen some iOS apps using menu bar at button and I want to implement it myself.
I was thinking of using Buttons in a Linearlayout as suggested in this post. But I was wondering if there is better solution or built in custom view for implementing this. Can anyone suggest me bettter way of doing it?
Try using FragmentTabHost with a Button inside a FrameLayout. Cheapest way I imagine. It's your choice.

I went through many questions regarding making bottom bar but my my question is a bit different.I want to make this.
bottom menu:
Now the thing is, the menu is not static.It's items can vary depending upon user's choice.So, I have to make it dynamic. What's the best approach to achieve this?
Also, I'm not sure how do I make that curved outline at the center item.I'm thinking that I should do it programmatically.Any suggestions are welcome.Even better if you can share code.
Use this to create Navigation bar, it will surly create view that you show us in image.

Bottom menu is now an official navigation view according to the official documentation but as far as I know, there is no native component available yet to implement that.
In my opinion, your best bet is to try customizing the following library created by Iiro Krankka (http://github.com/roughike):

I want to make a UI like this http://d.pr/i/ZQxO but I don't think so that android ActionBar component has the provision to add menu layout like this. What can be the possible workaround for this? Thanks.
You can do it with simple option menus. Have look on official samples or even better do it breadcrumb
I am in the process of replacing the Android Popup Menu with a Solid bar containing the buttons at the top of the screen. Now diffident activities contain the same buttons , plus to enhance the user experience we are keeping the Menu Bar with the button. Now i want to make this generic enough. Does anyone know of any good UI Patterns that will help me achieve this. I dont want to copy and paste my layouts xml code, plus the onClick listeners have the same code across the activities. Any help will be appreciated.
Kind Regards,

Use the ActionBar and the Compatibility Package.
I'm trying to cope with some problem in finding good idea. I would like to make interesting menu like in games on Android (eg. ANngry Birds or here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3g6SdTODY4) In this panda game I supose that first menu are simply 3 color buttons, but what about this sliding menu later with stages description - this same as in angry birds? Telling the truth I have got no idea what object it can be?
I will be glad if someone can tell me that. Or the best to give some tutorials about it. I cant google any.
Well, it seems that this sliding stage description is implemented with some simple layout placed to HorizontalScrollView and some animation applied to the buttons.
It can be your custom view provided with your translation animations and handling its visibility on the click of the default menu button (via onKeyDown()) on Android.
