You can do something simple like I did  Just change the text to what is needed when the menu item is touched  I needed to turn the sound off and on  plus the ability to perform an action by touching it  Here is my code        Override public boolean onOptionsItemSelected MenuItem item         switch  item getItemId          case R id audioOn          audioOn    audioOn          if  audioOn              item setTitle  Audio Off            else             item setTitle  Audio On            return true       case R id touchOn          touchOn    touchOn          if  touchOn              item setTitle  Touch Off            else             item setTitle  Touch On            return true      default          return super onOptionsItemSelected item             audioOn and touchOn are booleans checked in other parts of the code  Hope this helps
