[Q] Browser like Stock Android that hides status bar in fullscreen? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any browser that is like stock Android for JB that hides the status bar in full screen mode?
I tried Tint and Holoweb, and I like them, but neither seems to support hiding the status bar.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. I've also tried just about all third-party browsers, but they tend to be bloated and slow.
Looking for the simplicity and beauty of something like Tint, but with the ability to hide the status bar.

There's Naked Browser which I think doesn't show the status bar when it's in fillscreen mode, but I can't really call it beautiful.
EDIT: Why not use the stock JB browser? Personally, I find it to be rather uncluttered myself and it can do what you're asking for.

How to hide status / notification bar

On most apps the status bar on top just wastes 5-10% of the screen height.
Is there a way to hide it ?
In this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1080243
I read something but that is more for developers.
Is there an app or other trick to hide theis bar and to use the full screen ?
My Galaxy is rooted.
ADW ex launcher.
Most 3rd party launchers will do that, but I bet you miss it once it's gone

Have to admit that that's true
Didn't think I would, but...
But having it back without the clock via Revolution ROM is even better.
I tried ADW Launcher, but can only hide the status bar in the home screen like in Go Launcher.
But when starting an app (in most apps) it reappears again.
What I mean is hiding it within an app.

[Q] Stock Status Bar and Notifications Drawer on CM10

Hi all,
I have put CM10 onto my S3 and while I love it alot, I would really prefer the stock status bar icons and notifications draw with the stock toggles.
I prefer having everything on one draw instead of having to open two. I also liked to see when data was sent via WiFi or 3G on the stock icons.
Does anyone know a way to get this working?
Thanks! :good:
In CM, you can turn off quick tiles. They also have an option to use classic toggles (although I forget what they're called). Just have a look through the menus and it becomes obvious

you can put more shortcuts in the notification bar in CM roms than the stock ones!

Replacement for Notification Bar ?

The notification bar is horrible, i like the stock android one where i can turn off wifi/bluetooth etc - i downloaded an app that tries to emulate these things but its not the real deal.
I already use a custom launcher -how can i replace the notification bar ?

I think root with xposed framework will do. But I dont touch that, because I always semibricked phones with it.
Personally, I only miss the brightness in there. Mine is clean showing only the clock and my push notifications. The stock multitasking feature is full of the Features you want in the notification bar and also customizable. I like the idea as the multitask switching itself on the most roms is very "empty". Just your windows and thats it. In EUI its like a "quickbar"

Can I change the status bar icons on the Verizon variant of the phone?

I would really like the stock Android status bar icons. My main gripe is that 4g/3g takes up a whole other icon instead of being combined into the cell signal. Any chance of modifying these without root?
This is always my complaint on Verizon phones. They insist on messing with the icons. I have not figured out anything yet, besides using a material status bar app from the play store, but the problem with it is the status bar will not go transparent on the home screen with Nova launcher. Once we can get Andromeda or Substratum support, it opens up a whole new world.

So close! This lets me enable/disable various status bar icons but not change them. Thanks though.
Found it! An app just called Status. Transparency on the homescreens only works if you have a non-live wallpaper tho.

Cool, thanks. I was really hoping to avoid just overlaying the system status bar, but that might be the only way unfortunately.

That black navigation bar

I can't be the only one who is annoyed by this - many apps have the navigation bar black at the bottom and the chin looks twice as big as it is. It's bugging the hell out of me and I was wondering if anybody knew how to change this so it matches the color of the app you're in.

I use Fluid N.G. to replace nav bar.. and I'm quite satisfy with that, while waiting EMUI 9 come out to P20 lite.. the app is available in playstore
Yes, Fluid N.G. is a very good app, I like it.
just go to settings, system, system navigation, there you can hide na navigation bar
