This is my first time working with the Action Bar in Android. I'm seeing an issue where both overflow menu displays in the ActionBar and the bottom of the screen.
From my understanding the bottom settings bar should only display if the app uses the legacy settings operations. I thought I've followed everything needed to set the action bar and overflow up properly to work with the new android APIs. For a frame of reference, I'm debugging on the HTC One.
At first I thought it might be related to the fact I'm using ActionBarSherlock, but I removed the references to the library and used the standard Android library classes -- that didn't help.
I sense that I'm missing something minor. Any help would be appreciated.

My activity has the following code:
public class MainActivity extends SherlockActivity
{
static final LatLng POINT = new LatLng(44.52515, -89.571533);
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
map = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map))
.getMap();
map.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(POINT, 15));
// Zoom in, animating the camera.
map.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.zoomTo(10), 2000, null);
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu)
{
getSupportMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.activity_main, menu);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch(item.getItemId())
{
case R.id.action_routes :
// do something here
break;
case R.id.action_settings:
// do something here
break;
}
return true;
}
}
and my activity_main.xml for the menu:
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<item
android:id="@+id/action_routes"
android:orderInCategory="100"
android:showAsAction="always"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_route"
android:title="@string/action_routes" />
<item
android:id="@+id/action_settings"
android:orderInCategory="100"
android:showAsAction="never"
android:title="@string/action_settings"/>
</menu>
You need to set your android:targetSdkVersion
to 14 or higher to avoid this effect.
