Hide camera lenses? - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
Is there a way on a non rooted, stock launcher phone to hide the additional camera modes?
I don't think they really need their own icons.

go into settings, apps, all apps, and disable them one by one

But won't that then disable them from being used

You just have to love this kind of answers.
He clearly said he wants to hide app icons, your suggestion will disable apps totally and he won't be able to use them.

*** no mate, no way to hide apps in stock launcher, on stock unrooted device ***
On rooted device you can hide them using Xposed modules.
Only way to hide icons you don't need in app drawer is to use another laucher.
If you want something similar to Xperia Home launcher you can use Advanced Xperia Launcher - it's quite similar to stock launcher but it has many advanced options...

That's what I thought unfortunately. I don't want to root until you can back up TA did to video unlimited DRM loss

Hey, didn't mean to be anything but helpful here. A question was asked, and that's the only way to accomplish what he wanted, with the circumstances he gave. Also sounded like he'd figure out that disabling them would.... disable them.

best way to keep the notification bar hidden

question in title
i know launcher pro does this but when you open up an app (like handscent sms) it shows up again.
is there any app or anything to remove the notification bar universally?
I use the zeam launcher. That has an option that almost always hides it. Hope that helps.

I dont know of a way to do it in apps, but if you want it gone on your lockscreen as well, I use Widget Locker to accomplish this as well as place a bunch of widgets Im always using right on my lockscreen

damn, i guess our phones just aren't meant to not have the not. bar.
only reason i'd like to have it gone is so I can further depend on widgets, just for the hell of it.
zeam launcher does it for me all the time once i hide it its gone in any app i open

{REQ} Note 3 TouchWiz Launcher with Ability to Hide Apps

Hi,
I flashed the Note 3 Launcher, the original one I previously had on 4.3 had the ability to hide apps in app drawer, but the N3 one doesnt. Can someone guide me on how to hide them without an app? Or can someone modify it?
Please I dont want another launcher, just the N3 launcher with this ability. Thanks

No frikin idea why they got rid of that...there's like 10 apps I always hide from the drawer...I'm using the LG G2 launcher till that feature is brought back..its pretty solid. Except for the lock screen settings which don't work.don't need em anyways since the functionality isn't there.

That doesn't hide apps... it disables them (and hides them). We need something that only hides the app for example I want to hide the SuperSU app, adaway app... which Samsungs built in hide apps allowed us to do.
Here's the note 3 twizz launcher with blue text by Claude. It has the ability to hide apps as well. If not you could always use nova launcher

Hi Mate ,
I was looking for something like this for the I9500 ( S4) , this works on the S4 with Omega V19 but it disables the app and when you ask to see the dsabled apps it FC , where you got this from, looks promising needs polishing but looks good

Quick questions for new owner of Z2

First of all I love this device. Had the s5 and the m8 and this one is overall the better device. Anyways, the notification bar has Google search and Sony app which is annoying and the app switcher comes up a little slow and has those small apps. Anyway to fix these or do I need root for that? Thanks.

well you need root to change that
you can edit it via an xposed and an xposed module by the name of gravitybox
the app switcher is slow snd i dont think that can be changed

Yeah, I've tried GravityBox and a bunch of other Xposed modules but cannot seem to get rid of the mini apps in the app switcher...

I was able to uninstall the small apps in the recent apps panel with titanium backup. No issues, but it isn't that much faster.

Thanks, I found using titanium backup and deleting the what's new application just removes it as well which is pretty cool ?

I also wanted to know this
but I'm not ready to root my phone as of yet!! I'm too chicken sh*t!!
On an unrelated note (or related to the navbar), can anyone tell me if it is possible to have a transparent navbar on stock UI with no root/unlocked bootloader? I tried using Nova and google launcher but both seem to have a blacked out navbar but transparent notification bar.

way to disable swipe down search on home screen?

Hello
Is there a way to disable the swipe down search feature on the home screen? It's annoying and I set it off every time that I bring down the setting tiles (wifi, Bluetooth, etc); and I don't use it.
Thanks

I assume that you're saying that it's part of the stock launcher???
Is there a way to disable that, is what I asked.
Yes, it's part of the stock launcher. I didn't find the way to do this without replacing the launcher.
