I've been trying to find some way of removing the icon/logo from the action bar but the only thing I've found after an hour of searching SO, Android's documentation and Google is how to remove the title bar in whole. That is not what I want. Only want to remove the icon/logo from the title bar.

Any one know how to accomplish this? Preferably I'd like to do this in XML.

Add the following code in your action bar styles:

<item name="android:displayOptions">showHome|homeAsUp|showTitle</item>
<item name="displayOptions">showHome|homeAsUp|showTitle</item>
<item name="android:icon">@android:color/transparent</item> <!-- This does the magic! -->

PS: I'm using Actionbar Sherlock and this works just fine.
