This example demonstrate about how to create a custom action bar in Android. Step 1 − Create a new project in Android Studio, go to File ⇒ New Project and fill all required details to create a new project. Step 2 − Add the following code to res/layout/activity_main. xml.
To change the action bar background, create a custom theme for your activity that overrides the actionBarStyle property. This property points to another style in which you can override the background property to specify a drawable resource for the action bar background.
Custom Action Bar Layout The view layout consists of two ImageButtons that represent forward and back image buttons and a TextView in the center.
Just go to res/values/styles.edit the xml file to change the color of action bar.
I'm sorry, but kick your designer in the...
He doesn't get Android at all and shouldn't design for Android. Either it's an ActionBar and then you should treat is as such and you (or your designer) should follow the common pattern on Android, or it is not.
If it is no ActionBar, please do not use an ActionBar (no matter which library) and create a custom design that deviates enough from an ActionBar so as not to confuse users!

Please forward your designer, and your manager to Android design patterns site at http://developer.android.com/design/patterns/actionbar.html . Also tell them that if they want Google to ever feature them, they pretty much have to adhere to these. With all failed use full screen layout and create a custom control on the top
