Android, Tabs without Actionbar

android, android-tabs

Solution

Solution of your problem is already given in http://developer.android.com/

To disableAction-bar Icon and Title, you must do two things:

 setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(false);  // hides action bar icon
 setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false); // hides action bar title

Follow The Steps given in Using split action bar

Write Following Code in `OnCreate()`

@Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.navigation_drawer);

        getActionBar().setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(false);  // hides action bar icon
        getActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false); // hides action bar title
        //rest of your code...
}

After Android updated Actionbar to Toolbar there are many changes in Actionbar Tabs.

Please follow below links to create swipable tabs in Andoid.

Problem

This question has been asked (for example, here Using ViewPager with Tabs without actionBar), however the answer there doesn't work. There's some links to Swipey but unfortunately the link is broken too. The example from Android site EffectiveNavigation uses Actionbar to host the tab fragment, so obviously if I set a .NoActionBar theme, then there's no host. Any different way? Thanks. Update screenshot of what I want to create, at the top, there's no actionbar. Update 2 this is from the google example, there's an actionbar on top (titled "Effective navigation), which I want to get rid of
