I have checked your styles. There you specify

<item name="android:gravity">center</item>

for CustomWindowTitleBackground. Its not possible because setting gravity center means it will align in center to its parent. so there is no possibility of giving the layout width to fill_parent.

so i think you must use custom xml file and align your title

Define a custom title style/theme. Als o check com.example.android.apis.app.CustomTitle.

Try to set gravity in AndroidLoginExampleActivity.xml file

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"   
android:id="@+id/layout" 
android:layout_width="match_parent" 
android:layout_height="wrap_content"  
android:orientation="vertical"
android:gravity ="center" >

or if you want to use gravity in sub layout then use layout_gravity in sub layout.
