How to remove the android actionbar icon in xamarin?

Question

I am trying to remove the android actionbar icon in a Xamarin android project.

I have tried setting the icon as transparent and excluding the icon from the manifest. I have also tried changing the icon size to try and hide it and replacing it with a blank icon. Problem is that this also makes the icon in the launcher menu screen blank.

any suggestions would help

Thanks

in your MainActivity.cs, try this

    // hide app icon in Android action/nav bar
    ActionBar.SetIcon(my_app_name.Resource.Color.transparent);

For a particular activity try this...

getActionBar().setIcon(
   new ColorDrawable(getResources().getColor(android.R.color.transparent)));

I've got this solved by adding this code into my Android MainActivity class:

ActionBar.SetIcon(Android.Resource.Color.Transparent);
