Anyone know how to hide the notification bar? When I'm using apps I don't want to see the notification/status bar, as I want to utilize the full screen.
So no way to accomplish this?

I am a "noob", but my experience with the TF is that the notification bar is not part of the viewing screen. I could be way off base here.
Using the Gallery app the notification bar remains, but the icons are dimmed (small dots), touching the area and they appear. . Using Moboplayer the notification bar icons remain bright.
Give it a try and you'll see what I mean
i like to too. i hate that frikken white they used for the nav buttons. stock would have been better. the white is so damn annoying when reading or watching movies (i use mobo so it doesn't hide).
i have tried modaco's rom but since it's the ww version some apps don't show up.
Title is pretty self explanatory. I love Immersive/Expanded mode. I use LMT Launcher and LockerPro Lockscreen banner notifications, so don't need to see the status bar often. However, I do find it a little annoying to have to swipe to show the status bar, then swipe again to expand the notification drawer. I have tried a few status bar expander apps, but they just don't work unless I already swipe to show the status bar. I've looked around at various apps and Xposed modules, but haven't found that solution yet. Any ideas?
Is there any way to have a 100% empty status bar,no signal bars of any kind?I am looking for a way do it.I can't seem to kind a way with using immersive mode,which I don't want.I looked for a xposed module and didn't find any.Thanks in advance.

Just to be clear, why would you rather have a status bar with no status icons instead of simply no status bar at all?

Personal preference. I want a change.I like immersive mode with pie.It's just not what I want to be honest.I would like it empty and to use a widget to relay the info that would show up.(I.e WiFi signal carrier signal clock )

Sorry, I get the "clean look" idea. I just don't understand what the difference is to you to have a clean status bar vs no status bar... I don't see why you would want the former not the latter. Or would completely hiding the status bar be an option too?

I would "hide it".I've never really been a widget person,so I'd like to try something new and use a widget to give me all the info normally displayed in the status bar,but I don't want to use something that takes away the keys I added and colored. Any thoughts?

Widget is only good if you're in the launcher. What about in apps? Some custom laucnhers can hide status bar when you're in launcher (homescreen etc) but then not when in apps. How would that suit?

I'm one of the small niche groups that actually really G.N.L.I like the functionality of swiping to my left for my cards.I think I had a ROM on my gnex that I was able to hide icons than make status bar transparent.I'll check out a few custom ROMs and see what I can come up with.If not I'll make my own build to suit my needs.won't be the 1st time...thanks for the feed back I was just looking for the cheap way out.

Use the xposed module gravity box. And use the display setting called immersive status bar. It'll hide the status bar while keeping your navigation bar. You can keep your colored nav keys, not see the status bar, and you won't have to use pie. If I'm not misunderstanding, that's what you want?

Thanks buddy,apparently I missed that set of options in G.B.That's what I was looking for.
Hey guys just want to know a simple thing before I buy the P20. I rely on status bar notifications when using the phone as I keep certain apps silent. Since this phone has a notch I wanted to know if out of the box there is enough room for at least a couple of icons like if I have WhatsApp and Facebook notifications then will it show in the status bar? Some of the screenshots of this phone show the status bar crammed with system icons not leaving room for other apps. Can we reduce the clutter without rooting or adb?
The Pocophone for example does not have ANY third party status bar icons and there is nothing that can be done about it without root. So I want to make sure that this is not the case with the P20.

You can control notification permissions yourself which you want to see and which you don't want to see. There's plenty of settings.
Sorry if this has been asked, I searched but didn't find anything. I like to have my status bar nice and clean and just rather see my notifications on my lock screen or drop down menu.
Running Android 10 on a Pixel 3. I would still like to receive notifications but I would like my status bar just to show the time on the left side. I know you can silence notifications and hide them from the status bar but I still would like to get notifications in the same way other than seeing the icon on the status bar.
Thanks
