Overlay split action bar and make background color semi transparent

Question

I want to overlay the split action bar and make the background semi transparent, just like facebook.

Any iteas please. I tried

getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_ACTION_BAR_OVERLAY);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_home);
getActionBar().setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable(Color.argb(128, 0, 0, 0)));

but it is overlaying the top bar and not the bottom.

Thanks, Noorul
