How to change app name with an image, android

Question

I am new to android application development. When I create a test app. I see the app name and logo by default. To change that we can go to androidmanifest.XML file and change it.

My question is, I want an image to be fixed in the place of the app name displaying in the top of the app.

Kindly help me.

for that, you need to change ic_launcher image in drawable folder. — MysticMagicϡ, Feb 04 '15 at 13:19

you can't do that, but instead you can change app icon/logo but the above will be definitely the name of the app along side with the app logo — Muhammed Refaat, Feb 04 '15 at 13:27
[tag:logo] is a programming language. Please don't use it's tag for questions relating to graphical logos. — Steven Doggart, Feb 04 '15 at 14:35

If you want to get result try this;

In code:

getActionBar().setTitle("");
getActionBar().setIcon(R.drawable.your_icon);

In XML:

<activity android:name=".MyActivity" 
       android:icon="@drawable/your_icon" 
       android:label="" />

To enable the back button in your app use:

 getActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
 getActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
