If you want to edit it from the code then

getActionBar().setTitle("Edited Title");

or

getSupportActionBar().setTitle("Edited Title");

this might help you https://developer.android.com/training/basics/actionbar/styling.html

Try this code before setting the content view in the activity oncreate method.

requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);

yes, you need to change the theme of your application.

<activity android:name=".MyActivity"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar">
</activity>

Just set "android:theme" attribute to "@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar" on your element in your AndroidManifest.xml file

<activity android:name=".MyActivity"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar">
</activity>
