In android app Toolbar.setTitle method has no effect – application name is shown as title

Found the solution:

Instead of:

mActionBarToolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar_actionbar);            
mActionBarToolbar.setTitle("My title");
setSupportActionBar(mActionBarToolbar);

I used:

mActionBarToolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar_actionbar);            
setSupportActionBar(mActionBarToolbar);
getSupportActionBar().setTitle("My title");

And it works.
