Change the title associated with this activity. If this is a top-level activity, the title for its window will change. If it is an embedded activity, the parent can do whatever it wants with it.

 String sTitle = "My new title";
 setTitle(sTitle);

Landscape - portrait orientation change:

If you do click on Rebuid project menu item, this operation maybe consume long time on slovly PC.
Some errors dismis when you do rebuild project, or module.
Try this:
Select module where contains red error code and press Debugg or Run button on Android Studio.
If module code contains errors, Android Studio show error report in gradle console.
If not, apk will installed on device.
This is 10 times faster than Clean - Rebuild all project.

Check your xml files in Eclipse Graphical Editor and fix problems.



Check project setup, right click on project, select properties, Java build path and
select correct Android version etc.


Right click on project, Android Tools, Fix Project Properties

Menu Eclipse select Project ->Clean.
