I am running the Kang release of ICS on my GTab. I am a big fan of ADW Launcher but on ICS, there is a blue bar that runs the length of the screen at the top. I have not been able to find a way to get rid of it (if there is a way). Anyone?
disabling it as default isnt' working here, but when you do set a swipe action in awd launcher to "hide/unhide statusbar" it works fine.
hope that helps.
If you want to permanently disable it and make sure you don't accidentally enable it by swiping, the easiest way would be this:
Long press on homescreen
Choose "Launcher Actions" -> "Show/Hide statusbar"
Click the icon you just made to hide the status bar
Delete the icon to make sure you won't accidentally make it come back
Enjoy
PS: Some people seem to believe that you can't get to "my apps" or "ADW options" if you disable the status bar on top. That is not the case, you click on the "options" (3 dots) icon on the bottom bar to get options, and you can get both app list and options with launcher actions.
I had a similar issue. I couldn't get the status bar to hide when using the option form the settings menu. Instead I set up a button to show and hide it. Its working great, status bar is just a click away.
I appreciate the replies. Feel stupid for not trying the hide status bar.
ADW just plain rocks!
Shame theres not a way to keep the buttons (app draw and all) but remove the blue bar.
Still, at least it matches the clock and wifi at the bottom of the screen :E
Thanks for the heads up on this one! That Blue line was driving me nuts!
Impossible to remove the blue bar.
It does not work for me.

An alternative???
I'm trying to set up a shortcut to open the JB quick settings window (the one you get by swiping the corner of the status bar, or swiping with two fingers, depending on your preference), and I can't seem to find a command for it anywhere. Not in Tasker, not in the Activities list, and no widget in the Play store that opens it with a tap. Oddly, I can use the Nova Launcher "Nova Actions" menu to create an "expand quick settings" button, but it can only sit on the home screen, while I want to add a button to my quick launch. If I could just create a widget or shortcut that toggles that button it'd work fine, but I can't find the functionality anywhere.
I'm running CM10.1. Thanks for any help anyone can offer.
On HTC ONE you pull your notifications down with 2 fingers.
this would be similar to Alt+Tab on a PC - except you'd swipe left and right on the floating window... maybe add a top bar to the floating window so as to not conflict with apps that require left/right swipe to open menus, and then swipe that top bar.
i think that'd make the floating window mode 10x more useful than it's current iteration where it's a one time, one way operation.
another related function would be from this advanced floating window mode, as you're cycling through apps, users could then swipe up or down to close that particular app, thus removing it from the cycle.
I found a Watchface solution using Smartlauncher and Zooper Widget pro. With smartlauncher it's possible to create a Fullscreen (Zooper) Widget on the Lockscreen. I created 4 Watchfaces on this way. I will post a instruction for it right here.

This Watchface Solution is composed of two parts:
A) a handfree background picture
B) a zooper widget to add the Minute Hand, the Hour Hand, the Akku Hand, the Date and the Notification Counter
Before starting, go to Settings and disable Screen lock.
The Smartlauncher allows to create a fullsize-Widget on the Lockscreen. First, we have to install Smartlauncher and Zooper Widget on the Gear.
After installing this two Apps, we have to change some Settings in the Smartlauncher. First, click at the search Bar and hold. Settings will open. Choose Settings and deactivate the search Bar. Then go back to the lock screen. Click on the Clock and delete. At least, delete the five Bubbles on the same way.
Now, go to the Settings of the Launcher by clicking on the Circle With the 4 Dots, then tap on the right upper side on the 3 dots. Choose Settings.

Now go to Android Settings. Moove to Display and LED- extended Desktop. Disable Status bar and Navigation bar for the Smartlauncher. (Don’t worry, both will return with a short swipe for a few seconds)
Afterwards you to to Zooper Widget. Disable just the Status Bar.
Now we have a complete empty Lockscreen. We can use it for a Fullscreen Zooper Widget (with the exception of 5mm of the bottom side of the screen). With a swipe to the right you will enter the App-Index.
You have to put the downloaded Picture blau.PNG in the Galery Folder of the Gear. I choose the way to send it per Mail to the Gear and save it.
Then we have to go to Gallery, choose the Backround picture, on the upper right Side choose this Photo as background. At least confirm Background on the upper side.
Next Step is conecting the Gear with your Computer. Open the Storage of the Gear, open Zooper Widget, and here the folder autosave. Put the downloaded widgets in the folder Autosave. Then put „minimal“ from the Download in the folder iconsets. After that, disconect the Gear and the Computer.
Now go to Lockscreen, click on it and hold. A Window will open. -Choose widget –Zooper widget pro –Zooper Widget 4x4. A shaded window will open.
Widget tap to open. Scroll down to Autosave. Choose Widget6. Then scroll down to „widget tap Action“ Choose „disable“.
At least to back to Homescreen with the navigation Bar and wait a moment. Congrats, your Gear s get back it’s watchface.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks
Do you mean besides opening the app drawer, putting your finger on the FB icon, then dragging onto the pane for the home screen you want it on? I set up a blank (invisible) Zooper widget in the top right corner of my screen that launches my FB app (I use Frindly instead of the actual FB one, though). I run a very minimalistic homescreen so that was the best path for me.
