Android.support.v7 Toolbar & DrawerLayout- how to change Hamburger icon

androidandroid-actionbarandroid-iconsandroid-navigationandroid-toolbar

My application uses ActionBarActivity and DrawerLayout and etc.
i want to change the ActionBarDrawerToggle icon to be custom drawable.

in my code i use android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar as SupportActionBar

this is my code:

 toolbar.setNavigationIcon(R.drawable.lifeline_shield);
 setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
 ActionBar actionbar = getSupportActionBar();
 actionbar.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
 actionbar.setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);

mDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, mDrawerLayout, toolbar, R.string.somestring1, R.string.somestring2) ....

but still i see the Hamburger icon, so i have my own icon for opening the drawer. How can I solve this? without using deprecated api

Android – How to replace the hamburger icon used for ActionBarToggle on Android Toolbar with a custom drawable

These two lines of code work for me:

mDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(false); //disable "hamburger to arrow" drawable
mDrawerToggle.setHomeAsUpIndicator(R.drawable.ic_drawer); //set your own

And then call this:

mDrawerToggle.syncState();
