Try the following code:

ActionBar actionBar = getActionBar();
actionBar.setDisplayOptions(actionBar.getDisplayOptions() |
        ActionBar.DISPLAY_SHOW_CUSTOM);
ImageView imageView = new ImageView(actionBar.getThemedContext());
imageView.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.CENTER);
imageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.adnace_search_i);
ActionBar.LayoutParams layoutParams = new ActionBar.LayoutParams(
        ActionBar.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
        ActionBar.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
                Gravity.RIGHT |
                Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL);
layoutParams.rightMargin = 40;
imageView.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
actionBar.setCustomView(imageView);
