I have just migrated from ActionBarSherlock and I also had to increase the minSDK to 14. I am trying to make it look like the way it was. (I am not interested in the material design guidelines for now. My priority for now is to make it as similar as possible to the previous version.)
One of the problems I am facing right now is related to PreferenceActivity.
I made the ActionBar visible by using AppCompatPreferenceActivity but as soon as I click a PreferenceScreen, it shows that PreferenceScreen on it's own and it loses the ActionBar.
I know there are many questions related to showing the title/ActionBar on PreferenceActivity. My question is different, I am curious about the title/ActionBar of PreferenceScreen(s) when they are opened through an AppCompatPreferenceActivity.
Any ideas?
