For a dedicated industrial app, which will be the only app the user should be using on this tablet (Samsung Galaxy tab 10.1", Android 3.2, rooted) I want to simplify the System Bar. All we need is the back and home buttons, along with maybe the battery and signal-strength indicators. We do not need (or want) the little up-arrow and its tray of apps, or the clock or notification bar or anything else.
How can I achieve this? The System Bar doesn't seem to have an API, unlike the Action Bar, which has its own class in Honeycomb. If I wanted to write my own minimalist System Bar what's the existing one called so I can delete it?
Thanks in advance!

No responses? Is this the wrong forum for this sort of question?
I'm wondering, does anyone knows of a mod or app that allows the notification/status bar be visible all the time throughout any app? I dont mind loosing that few bits of screen.

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.
Hi everyone,
i'm looking for someone who is able to developpe an graphical app that can make tiles wallpaper.
The app will draw square, rectangle, circle. it'll possible to set up the size of the item his color shadow and
write inside or insert icons.
The way of this app is to make wallpaper like the attachment file on our phone.
Thx for your answer.
Tinted Status Bar has been out for a long time now and despite its popularity its no longer being updated which means we have to take matters into our own hands and set the color codes manually to get the perfect color coding like in Android Lollipop.
Here I will list the color codes of apps in which tinted status bar didn't work
Add these color codes by going in per app tints and select the app and add them in All activities unless a specific activity is specified in brackets "(...)". Incase a specific activity is mentioned, only add in it.
Chrome
*ffe2e2e2
Android Device Manager
*ffd1d1d1
Google Docs (com.google.android.apps.docs.app.NewMainProxyActivity)
*ff4089f6
Google Slides (com.google.android.apps.docs.app.DocListActivity)
*fff6b400
Google Sheets (com.google.android.apps.docs.app.DocListActivity)
*ff0b9d58
Facebook
*ff3b5b98
Gmail
*ffdb4334
Google Play Games
*ff4f8027
(com.google.android.gms.games.ui.destination.games.GameDetailActivity)
*ff242424
(Note: For Google Play Games, add the first code in all activities, and the second in the activity mentioned)
Google Play Music
*ffef6a00
Google Play News and Weather
*ffffffff (turn icon color to ff000000)
Google Play Store
*ff6a9f38
Google +
*ffdb4336
Hangouts
*ff0b9d58
Google Keep
*ffffbf09
Google Messenger (com.google.android.apps.messaging.ui.ConversationListActivity)
*ff0089d1
Mobogenie (com.mobogenie.activity.DownloadManagerActivity)
*ff008cd1
Sound Cloud
*ff242424
Twitter

These codes will make the status bar match the action bar, if you want a stock lollipop kind of feel, go in overlay options and select the semi transparent overlay, it will give you slightly darker status bar as compared to action bar, as in Lollipop.
If you are using a Navigation Bar, tick the link status & Nav bar option in default settings for best results.
For those apps which do not follow a specific color code or do not have an action bar we need to determine a default colour, so go in default settings and change the following:
Default Status bar
*ff242424
Default Nav Bar
*ff242424
If you are using the Google Keyboard with Material Light Theme, then also change the following in default settings:
Navigation Bar Tint (IM)
*ffe3eaea
Navigation Bar Icon Tint (IM)
*ff2e373c
For Material Dark Theme on Google Keyboard, change to this:
Navigation Bar Tint (IM)
*ff21292b
Navigation Bar Icon Tint (IM)
*ffe3eaea
If you want codes for other apps not mentioned here, download the color picker app from playstore and open your target app, take a screenshot and then open color picker, load the screenshot and touch on action bar to get your code, enter that in tinted status bar to set it, also post it here in comments to help others! :laugh:
Cheers!
Did you know that Tinted Status Bar has a feature called "Notification Color Picker"? It automagically detects app color and let's you set the color per activity or to the whole app.
So you don't need to mess with color codes, color picker apps, screenshots, etc. You just launch the notification color picker and you can configure 20 apps in 60 seconds.
Yes that's what I used to know about the activity names, but that's all it can do, tell activity name, after that you still need screen shot and pick color and manually set that color to the respective activity

I thinks you better install Flat Style Colored Bars, it performs better than TSB
Doesn't work for us who are stuck on Jellybean

Are you kidding? You can add the color directly from the notification, see the attachments.
Add app, add activity and apply color. You are making this way more difficult than it is, man.
OK just tried it, its really amazing and yes it takes much lesser time, I really didn't knew about it, thanks dude!

That's because this module doesn't recognize the second Sim, it was made for single Sim devices in mind, my second Sim doesn't change color too, anyway you can still use gravity box to give it a color of your choice, though it won't change automatically

Hello folks,
Maybe you didn't get it straight from the title, what I mean I have an Xposed module displays a piece of info on the statusbar next to the clock, actually it's meant to be a part of the clock as one text element "I don't know why or what's the point?" so the info text follows whatever the clock does, the problem here when I hide the clock on lockscree the text disappears where which I need it there to be displayed no matter where.
So my question, is there any kind of trick in which it manage to take/grab any activity element of an app and put it somewhere else is possible to be displayed on while the info still synchronize its data e.g. as a widget in lockscreen?
Thank you in advance
