Nowadays you can just set this inside the onCreate

supportActionBar?.hide()

Just write this:

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
    this.getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN, 
    WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);

    getSupportActionBar().hide();

    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}

For Android 4.2.1 edit the default theme NoActionnBar and add this code in MainActivity.java file

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    if (getSupportActionBar() != null) {
        getSupportActionBar().hide();
    }
}

I've seen some questions about the location etc. Here is the complete solution. Use this in onCreate();

    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    Toolbar toolbar = findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
    setSupportActionBar(toolbar);

    // Set title to false AFTER toolbar has been set
    try
    {
        getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
    }
    catch (NullPointerException e){}

If you want to hide it use this code

getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false)

or if you want to change the name use this

getSupportActionBar().setTitle("type yor title here");

You could try setTitle(""). If you are using ActionBar or ToolBar, then call bar.setTitle("") or :

bar.setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
bar.setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(false);

Call setDisplayShowHomeEnabled() and setDisplayShowTitleEnabled() on ActionBar, which you get via a call to getActionBar().

ActionBar actionBar = getActionBar();
actionBar.setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
actionBar.setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(false);

Or you can just call actionbar.setTitle("")
