New Android Project named after Main Activity instead of app name

I found the solution for you.. In the manifest file, you are able to set one label for the launcher icon, and another for the activity. The app name is set in the intent filter, like this:

<activity
    android:name=".Start"
    android:label="@string/activity_start" >
    <intent-filter android:label="@string/app_name" >
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
    </intent-filter>
</activity>

I am also using the updated adt and having the same problem and finally comes out with the only solution which is as follows

<application
    android:name="GlobalData"
    android:icon="@drawable/hdpi"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme">

    <activity android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar"
        android:name=".ApplicationCommence"
        android:label="@string/app_name" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
        </intent-filter>

Here above the in "@string/app_name" having my project name.

Recently i have this problem: can you please try with this:

<activity
    android:name=".MainActivity"
    android:label="@string/app_name" >

or remove android:label from activity
