Change ToolBar default icon on the left

Solution 1
Set as NavigationIcon:
Drawable drawable = ContextCompat.getDrawable(context, R.drawable.your_drawable)
toolbar.setNavigationIcon(drawable);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
Solution 2
Try this
toolbar.setNavigationIcon(R.drawable.your_icon);
Use it before setting support action bar. And don't call this
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
Or at least do
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);
Try it out. Some of this will work.

I am using a ToolBar at the top at present and want to replace the default back button with a home button. But when I add item, it always adds to the right. I don't see any layout_gravity options to choose either. Is there a way to do this?
MainActivity
Toolbar toolbar; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_add_delete); toolbar = (Toolbar)findViewById(R.id.app_bar); setSupportActionBar(toolbar); getSupportActionBar().setTitle(" Testing"); getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true); } @Override public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) { // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present. getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.home_icon_empty, menu); return true; }
home_icon_empty.xml
<item android:id="@+id/homepage" android:orderInCategory="100" android:title="HOME" android:icon="@drawable/home_icon" app:showAsAction="always" /> <item android:id="@+id/homepage1" android:orderInCategory="200" android:title="HOME" android:icon="@drawable/home_icon" app:showAsAction="always" />
activity_main.xml
<include android:id="@+id/app_bar" layout="@layout/app_bar" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
app_bar.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="@color/colorPrimary"> </android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
Current Toolbar output:
