find a way to hide status bar completely either through your rom (i know aokp has that option) or find another app that does it. Then, get smart statusbar in the play store. free version does everything that you need but pro has some extra features such as the status bar reappearing when you get a notification.
Make sure you apply today's update...it has support for gestures. :highfive:
Works ok

Is it possible to bring down the notifications shade with a gesture, if the bar is hidden?
I've got a two finger swipe set for that, but it only works if the bar is not hidden.

How did you get it to work? I can't seem to find that action.
Swipe down to display the notification bar

In order to find the gestures, go into: Themer Settings > Themer > Gestures. From here you can assign a gesture, for example swipe down to show the notification bar, or swipe up to hide it. Make sure you have the latest update, as this includes gesture support.
If you go into Themer Settings > Advanced > Desktop, you can whether to display the notification bar or to hide it.
Hope this helps
What's happening in v1.8 . Can we get any sneak peeks?

i'd like to second this - not just to show or hide the notification bar, but a gesture to fully pull down the notification shade. For example other launchers let me swipe down anywhere on the screen to bring down the notification shade, but with themer i must pull down from the top of the screen. Once you get used to swiping down from anywhere, you really miss it
@ThemerSupport I love this app and as you can see in the screen shots and .zip section I've been making some matching lock screens using uccw and widget locker.
What I would like is to be able to use the everything widget in widget locker for the lock screen but cant. But can use the other themer widgets please can you fix or add. So I can use themer and widget locker together
Thanks
all the best

Hi All,
It took me a while to figure out, but you can add an option to hide the grey nav bar on an unrooted HAM2 and make it reappear by swiping up. It is somewhat confusing because the nav bar setting is not available if you have your Emotion UI set to the Standard home screen style. You have to apply the "Simple" home screen style first, which is the one with the giant colored buttons for grandma to use.
After you apply the Simple home screen style, go back into settings, select More Settings and then scroll down to the bottom of the list. You will see a new option called "Navigation Bar" has been added. If you press this option you will see a toggle switch for "Hide Navigation Bar" along with some instructions on how to use it. Once you have toggled the switch to hide the navigation bar, you can revert back to the Standard Emotion UI and the setting will be retained.
After I hid the navigation bar I found some apps I had difficulty installing would start to work OK. For example, if you try to install NBA Jam without hiding the navigation bar, it will get hung on the initial splash screen. After I hid the navigation bar, NBA Jam would check for updates and then proceed to the game without any problem.
Hope this helps anyone having difficulty with the nav bar!

this looks great with xposed and gravity box so that my navbar is transparent and can be hidden on command!
thank you!

This is the Kitkat feature I missed the most. My main motivation to buy a HAM2 was to read novels in it, instead of carrying a smaller phone and a tablet. For that purpose, the screen is stunning, but that dammed gray navbar was always in the way. Not anymore!
Thank you so much for this tip. You made my day!
Wow, nice find!
Now I have a bit more room on this already huge display. Thanks! :good:

This option should be there regardless of what launcher u are using.. It's a standard feature in the settings.. No? I have a China version on 4.4.2.. No sure if there's a difference though..

It is not visible with standard home screen but it is in simple which not too many people switch to it.

A bit laggy compared to using one of the root options.

Thank you,.!.!
Only reason I wanted to rood was immersive mode, this is close enough.
I love this phone even more now - coming from a 32gb One plus one.
Damn! You had a oneplus one? I got an invite but I'm gonna have to pass on that

WOW!!! Thanks so much for sharing this great find. It works GREAT!!!!!
Thanks given. This was the only reason I was rooted. Along with greenify. Now with the ability to hide the navbar and the ability to disable background apps included in the stock ROM, I really don't have any need for root. I still might use links2sd to install more apps if I hit that 6gb limit. This phone is solid!
Making the navigation bar hidden is called "immersive mode". There are apps on the Play Store that supposedly let you toggle immersive mode. Please post your results if you try one.
I'm guessing those apps will let you switch to immersive mode independent of standard or simple mode.
Hello Guys.
I am in love with the Gesture Control on the iPhone X.
An App called OnePlus Gestures can do the same.
But the Thing is. Even If i use Apps to disable the nav bar, IT appear Sometimes when i swipe Up to left an App.
Do someone has an Idea how to complety disable the Nav bar ?
Is there a way to hide the status bar at the bottom on certain apps automatically instead of having to manually hide and unhide it? For instance, I always want it hidden when I am playing Pokemon Go so that I get a full screen experience, but I want it to be there when I leave the app to go do something else.

Have you tried going into settings and then display and finally ",Full screen apps?" Because that's how to do the bottom bar.
Yeah I have all apps set to full screen, but I thought that had more to do with making sure the app filled the entire screen than whether or not the status bar is hidden.

Yeah, you're right it doesn't even hide it anymore like it used to.. I just tried it and it did nothing at all but when I used to do it before it would make the bars go away at the top and bottom and give the app full screen but I'm not getting nothing at all now which is weird..
