8,182 PointsMenu item not displaying on Menu bar
I am extending the list activity for the RecipientActivity class and I used the holo.dark action bar theme to display the menu. I am working on the build a self destructive app by the way. The issue is that the 'send message' icon is not showing on the menu bar when I extend the ListActivity. It is showing the text 'Send' instead, on the drop down and not the menu bar itself. I guess it has something to do with the app compact library I am using for the ListActivity because I tried extending the ActionBarActivity and it displays the icon as expected. Does anyone out there know how to get around this? Thanks a lot in advance!
