and here's drawer menu thing looks like:

the problem i'm having when open side drawer menu thing , tap option doesn't work , menu closes. i'm able interact main listview page. here's code looks like:

string[] homearray = { "test", "test", "test", "test", "test", "test", "test", "test", "test", "test", "test", "test", "test", "test", "test" };  private listview homelistview; private arrayadapter arrayadapter;    private drawerlayout mdrawerlayout; private listview mdrawerlist; private actionbardrawertoggle mdrawertoggle;  private charsequence mdrawertitle; private charsequence mtitle; private string[] mdrawertitles;  @override protected void oncreate(bundle savedinstancestate) {     super.oncreate(savedinstancestate);     setcontentview(r.layout.activity_main);        mtitle = mdrawertitle = gettitle();     mdrawertitles = getresources().getstringarray(r.array.menu);     mdrawerlayout = (drawerlayout) findviewbyid(r.id.drawer_layout);     mdrawerlist = (listview) findviewbyid(r.id.left_drawer);      // set adapter list view     mdrawerlist.setadapter(new arrayadapter<string>(this,             r.layout.drawer_list_item, mdrawertitles)); 

and activity_main.xml:

<android.support.v4.widget.drawerlayout     xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"     android:layout_height="match_parent"     android:layout_width="match_parent"     >  <framelayout     android:id="@+id/content_frame"     android:layout_height="match_parent"     android:layout_width="match_parent" />  <listview     android:id="@+id/left_drawer"     android:layout_height="match_parent"     android:layout_width="240dp"     android:layout_gravity="start"     android:choicemode="singlechoice"     android:divider="@android:color/darker_gray"     android:dividerheight="1dp"     android:background="#111"     />  <linearlayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"               xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"               android:layout_width="match_parent"               android:layout_height="match_parent"               android:orientation="vertical"               tools:context=".listactivity" >  <listview         android:id="@+id/homelistview"         android:layout_width="match_parent"         android:layout_height="match_parent" > </listview>  </linearlayout>  </android.support.v4.widget.drawerlayout> 

i have feeling problem in xml i'm not sure.

please post full code of activity holds navigationdrawer.

furthermore, i recommend (and google) use fragments individual navigationdrawer sections ("settings", "submit bug" , "help" in case).

do not put layout components layout file of activity.

the layout therefore should following:

<android.support.v4.widget.drawerlayout     xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"     android:layout_width="match_parent"     android:layout_height="match_parent">     <!-- main content view -->     <framelayout         android:id="@+id/content_frame"         android:layout_width="match_parent"         android:layout_height="match_parent" />     <!-- navigation drawer -->     <listview android:id="@+id/left_drawer"         android:layout_width="240dp"         android:layout_height="match_parent"         android:layout_gravity="start"         android:choicemode="singlechoice"         android:divider="@android:color/transparent"         android:dividerheight="0dp"         android:background="#111"/> </android.support.v4.widget.drawerlayout> 

the framelayout content_frame fragment holds listview go into. create custom fragment (or use listfragment) contains listview displayed in picture , insert "content_frame".

use replace fragments inside content frame: (when switch section)

/** swaps fragments in main content view */ private void selectitem(int position) {     // create new fragment , specify planet show based on position     fragment fragment = new yourlistfragment(); // fragment contains list "test" items      // insert fragment replacing existing fragment     fragmentmanager fragmentmanager = getfragmentmanager();     fragmentmanager.begintransaction()                    .replace(r.id.content_frame, fragment)                    .commit();      // highlight selected item, update title, , close drawer     mdrawerlist.setitemchecked(position, true);     settitle(mplanettitles[position]);     mdrawerlayout.closedrawer(mdrawerlist); } 

an example of how fragment like: yourlistfragment.java layout file "list_fragment.xml" contains whatever layout components want. example listview. initialize populate listview inside fragments oncreateview() method.

public class yourlistfragment extends fragment {      @override     public view oncreateview(layoutinflater inflater, viewgroup container, bundle savedinstancestate) {          view rootview = inflater.inflate(r.layout.list_fragment, container, false);          return rootview;     } } 

all taken googles example on how create navigationdrawer:
