-------------------------------

             Summary: Android menu not appearing as actionoverflow
                 Key: CB-3068
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-3068
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Android
    Affects Versions: 2.6.0
         Environment: Android
            Reporter: Umang Kedia
            Assignee: Joe Bowser
            Priority: Minor


The android native menu is not opening when pressing menu button while using PhoneGap. When I am pressing menu button, onCreateOptionsMenu() method is getting called but the menu is not getting created. 

public class PhoneGapActivity extends DroidGap {

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.setBooleanProperty("showTitle", true);
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        super.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/www/index.html");
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
        Log.d("Menu","Menu option called");
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.phone_gap, menu);
        return true;
    }

}
The log is getting printed, that means the function is getting called.

XML file for menu: When the android:showAsAction is set to always, its showing in the action bar, otherwise its not showing in the actionoverflow.

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >

    <item
        android:id="@+id/action_settings"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_settings_holo_light"
        android:showAsAction="always"
        android:title="@string/action_settings"/>

    <item
        android:id="@+id/more"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_moreoverflow_normal_holo_light"
        android:showAsAction="never"
        android:title="@string/more"/>

</menu>
