How to remove Application icon from Action Bar in Android?

Question

I am using Action bar with Tabs. I want to hide app icon from action bar. I use the below code, but action bar is showing below Tabs. Both are not useful for me.

Any one help me!

 actionBar.setDisplayUseLogoEnabled(false);

and

 actionBar.setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(false);

actionBar.setDisplayUseLogoEnabled(false); should do it.

Edited the answer. Can you try now? – jaibatrik Nov 29 '12 at 13:01
I'm using `ActionBarSherlock`. Not sure if these methods are in standard `ActionBar`. – jaibatrik Nov 29 '12 at 13:03

The methods are there. I checked the standard documentation. I've given the links. – jaibatrik Nov 29 '12 at 13:05
But when trying to type the method "actionBar.setIcon()" showing error. – user1670564 Nov 29 '12 at 13:08
Which API version are you developing for? – jaibatrik Nov 29 '12 at 13:28
Am using Android API 11..tab.setIcon() is available not for actionBar – user1670564 Nov 29 '12 at 13:37
Not sure, perhaps you could use setDisplayUseLogoEnabled(true) and opt for a transparent image. – jaibatrik Nov 29 '12 at 13:52
