        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.drawe_menu, menu);
        return false;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onPrepareOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
      /*  MenuItem item= menu.findItem(R.menu.drawe_menu);
        item.setVisible(true);*/
        super.onPrepareOptionsMenu(menu);
        return true;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        if (actionBarDrawerToggle.onOptionsItemSelected(item)) {

You can set button by creating your custom toolbar. Check the link below to set button on toolbar. Creating a button in Android Toolbar

if you want to add button to your toolbar which will be visible always then add a button in your toolbar with gravity right

<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize">
<Button
android:id="@+id/button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="right"
/>
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>

fragmentTransaction = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction(); fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.main_container, new HomeFragment()); fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(null); fragmentTransaction.commit(); drawerLayout.closeDrawers(); – Nitesh Jadhav Sep 19 '16 at 12:24
