I'd like to remove the time from the notification bar and have it added to the ticker (like I had on my Moment) and to clear up some more bar space by removing the headphones icon.
Does anyone know if there's any easy way to do it with only temp root? If not can we add this to the To Do List?

Probably not going to happen with temp root You'd need to edit files in the frameworks, most likely some XMLs, and perhaps even services.jar

I'm running CM7 on my original Droid. I'm using the phone strictly as a VOIP Phone and the cellular connection is deactivated. I've used Ninjamorph to black out the cell phone signal bars, but now there is a big space between my wifi icon and the battery icon (where the cell signal bars used to be). So is there a way that I can swap the positions of the cell phone bars and the wifi icon? Or maybe just a way to remove the cell phone bars from the notification bar?
I would love to be able to rearrange the icons on the status bar and on the notification bar!

So I've experienced an empty space to the left of my notification bar and was wondering if this would be able to fix it/get it back to its original state? Here is the brief on when this occurred:
I had recently updated my sensation to ics. Everything was fine but today after an application update to Google+ and lookout security, there was a space occurring to the left of my notification bar where the notifications for some of my other apps would usually occur so it looked like there was an empty space to the left before my first app notification (all my app notifications shifted over to the right by one space you can say).
I have included photos of before and after.
You would have to edit the layout xmls of the systemui.apk to tell it not to draw those icons
So basically I follow the tutorial linked above with the section "Switching the icons around with the notification icons (optional)"? Or is there another way to do it? Also, do I need root access to continue with that tutorial?

I dont think you need root access unles you try to adb push the file back onto the device and you cant du to root permissions. But you could always slip the .apk into a flashable zip and go from there.

There's no existing mod. If an apps requests full screen, the framework will open it in full screen mode. The only way to have it or not is reverse engineering of the apps.
Awww... bummer.... is there anywhere to put in a request?

You could ask the app Dev to add an option to enable or disable it, but they are free people and that's their decision to add it.
I need to get rid of the system bar on Android 4.1 tablets since the tablets will be in a commercial/retail environment and be used for business. My app will be the only app used on the tablet and it needs as much screen real estate as possible for what we're trying to do. I have searched already and I see that there are ways to do it on a rooted tablet, however since this will be in a business and deployed to several hundred or thousand businesses, I cannot have all the tablets rooted for legal and security issues. (Would I really have issues legally though if I were to root them?)
I know that you can dim the status bar and make the buttons dots but that really isn't optimal.
If there is no way to get rid of it, is it possible to change the status bar icons and functionality? I ask this because our app has a status bar on top and we could possibly move it to the bottom and change the icons and functionality of the status bar to match the app's status bar so no screen real estate is lost.
I have read that 4.2 adds some fullscreen functionality for apps. Is this true? Can the status bar be hidden in 4.2 as opposed to 4.1?
You could get rid of statusbar
Add this attribute to activity declaration in manifest
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen"

That just gets rid of the title bar for the app and the notification bar at the top. That does not get rid of the navigation bar at the bottom. I would like the navigation(system) bar to be gone.

I know but for un rooted dev this is the only thing that can be done
To completely remove statusbar del the Systemui.apk from system/app
To remove navigation bar at the bottom give me details of your dev and attach Systemui.apk and framework-res.apk they can be found in system/app and system/framework
But this can't be done without root
Press Thanx Button dude

Re: Getting rid of Status Bar on 4.1
Here's what I would do:
- Setup another Launcher (like Apex) to where 1) only one page, one icon (your app), and lock the homescreen from any changes, 2) make sure that when you press Menu, it performs a different action than giving you an option to access Settings, and 3) disabling the Status Bar in 'General'.
- Change the attribute in the Manifest file like sak-venom1997 suggested.
I'm pretty sure that doing this would give the user no option to change anything. Pretty sure.
Does anyone know if it's possible to hide just the notification icon without hiding the notification itself from pulldown?
Use case: Yahoo Weather app, the persistent notification in the pulldown is beautiful. I want it to always be there. However, the little temperature notification icon is pretty ugly, and I want to hide/disable it.
Using JB's "disable notifications" won't work since it will disable the entire notification, not just the icon.
Any ideas?
Maybe decompile systemui.apk or farmework-res.apk or where the icon is and turn it into a blank icon as in matches the background of status bar?
Or try to decompile Google now and dig through some xml files to figure out how they do it.
Off hand I can't say I've ever tried and don't have a great answer but may give you a start

How do I remove the 'Digital Balance' status bar icon? I would like to keep the notification when I pull down the status bar to view my screen on time, but I do not wish to see the persistent status bar icon. The notch on this phone is quite big, so i'm trying to eliminate unecessary icons. I have already searched up on countless guides, and tried many different methods to remove status bar icons and have succeeded, but I just can't seem to remove this particular status bar icon.

I have tried to replicate the same scenario but can't find way to hide status bar icon.
maybe an app like systemui tuner might do it
