Answer 1

You can Try this way..

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
    case android.R.id.home:
        // this takes the user 'back', as if they pressed the left-facing    

      triangle icon on the main android toolbar.
        // if this doesn't work as desired, another possibility is to call   

        stopActivityTask();  // finish() here.
        getActivity().onBackPressed();
        return true;
    default:
        return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}

If Not Work

Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
        // Title and subtitle
        toolbar.setTitle(R.string.about_toolbar_title);
        toolbar.setNavigationIcon(R.drawable.ic_action_back);
        toolbar.setNavigationOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                stopActivityTask(); 
                finish();
            }
        });

    private Toolbar toolbar;

Then add this in your onCreate method

    toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
    setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
    getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);

Then you add these lines :

        @Override
        public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        /*
            ADD WHAT YOU WANT TO DO WHEN ARROW IS PRESSED
        */
        return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
