You could use this format for your ActionBarDrawerToggle:
mDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, mDrawerLayout,
R.drawable.CUSTOM_ICON, // Navigation menu toggle icon
R.string.DRAWER_OPEN, // Navigation drawer open description
R.string.DRAWER_CLOSE // Navigation drawer close description
)
Change your drawable and make sure it is the same name as the one in the code.

To toggle the indicator you've to use:
public void toogleDrawer(boolean value){
mDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(!value);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(value);
}
Please post the complete code relating to your drawer fragment, and action bar setup(if any) and also the relevant layouts. You've to research around a bit before asking the question. Check this question here : Cannot listen clicks on up caret
