I have been searching for a way to disable the status bar but I learned that is not possible without Root.
My new attempt is of replacing the status bar with my own, but after some days have found nothing, even on Android Developers site.
My question is how to make a simple Status bar Replacement without need of root?
I have seen it done before in this app firezenk Super Status Bar but don't know how did he manage to override both Status Bar and and the Opened Panel.
My Aim is to prevent the access the android configuration using it.
Thanks a lot.
Sorry if this was posted before, I searched but didn't find it.

Hi everyone.
I've got a project.
I'm trying to use an app that requires every pixel of my M7X screen to work (TouchDaw by Humatic). My problem is that the Status Bar at the bottom of the screen can't be hidden in ICS. This means that I loose out on several pixels height of the full screen and the app doesn't display as I need it to. The app worked fine in Gingerbread, where the Status Bar can automatically hide.
I found a thread on xda-dev where the OP (aeros0ul) has made available code to add to android.policy.jar to make the Status Bar "hideable" ([MOD][ROOT][ICS]Hide Status Bar (updated 11.02.)). The code was written for a XOOM ROM but he thinks it could be included in any ROM.
Could anyone point me towards how to include it in the ICS ROM that the fantastic guys at 4PDA.RU have given us?
The modified android.policy.jar posted on the above thread puts the M7X into a boot loop.
Cheers
Hi, I search through older topics and googled, but found no answer.
Is there any way to hide status bar on lock screen?
I am using Omega ROM on my SGS2.
Thanks for reply!
I don't think it's possible as it is a limitation of the build used.
I may be wrong though.
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.
Hello,
is there a mod (xposed module e.g.) that modifies the notification area to show a search bar? Basically I want to pull down the notification bar and there shall be the search bar instead on my home screen.
I have searched for it quite a while now, but without any success. As I am not into software development I am not able to build a corresponding mod on my own, therefore I would highly appreciate if anyone can do so. :fingers-crossed:
Hi guys
I want to know is any stable way for change stock status bar of Emui change to iOS 11 Status bar without need Root premission?! If no and Root required ,can somebody help me to understand how can I change it under a simple way ?
I know we can use some applications like inotify or material status bar or something like them for change status bar style,but I need a way like theme editing but this one is different, because I want change positions of clock to center, signal bar to left even WiFi icon , just battery icon and Bluetooth and location stay left side
Thanks engineers if can help god bless you all ?
even most of themes with root will not help here unless you are on custom ROM and ROM does offer such changes of moving the clock, changing battery icon etc. You can use xposed module to exactly make the changes you described but you mentioned no root so bit difficult to achieve this requirement unless some dev come up but that will take the root as well.
find a theme... that will do the trick. Also on the playstore, there's an app you can use called Theme Factory for our phones... You can start from scratch and make your own theme or modify someone else's theme... It's fully featured so you can do anything with the theme engine that you want. Hope this helps!
