You are not speaking of what?
The thread heading isn't where you put your question. Describe it below.
Most of the launchers provide the option to hide status bar. Is that what you want?
If you have a stock launcher then its not possible, maybe with root. Download a custom launcher from play(like apex, nova, etc). In the settings you can disable the statusbar and in nova prime (im not sure if apex has this feature too) you can even have gestures for app or for the statusbar if you disabled it with a swipe you can enable it again or disable it again if you dont need it.

Is there an App or widget that would allow me to remove icon labels/names?
Haven't rooted yet so just running a stock Rom.
you can use desktop visualizer and keep shortcuts of your desired apps on the homescreen and you can remove the labels/names .....
In 3rd party launchers like ADW and Launcher Pro the option to hide app labels is there.
But if you really want to keep stock launcher I guess you could use Desktop. Visualizer to add a shortcut to the app and clear the label then use the icon from that app but it comes out a bit stretched out, unless you have custom icons in a higher resolution.

Bettercut will do that for you too.
GO Launcher EX has this option as well.

Thanks for the replies.
Go Launcher works perfectly.
Hello everybody.
It's possible to hide an icon on iCS ? (Menu Launcher)
Software ?
Thanks.
Not possible without modding the launcher. There are launchers that have the app hiding feature though. Give GO Launcher EX a try.

No, but I've been loving ADW Ex with ICS. TeslaCoil's Nova Launcher is a modded ICS launcher and may provide the function you're seeking.
That app is in the themes and apps forum.
Hello,
I've been searching for some time now a way to hide the label of the applications on the homescreens.
Do you know is there is a mod; an application (I haven't found it in Leedroid Tweaks) or standard option that could allow this feature?
Thanks for your answers!
Depends on the launcher you are using. In Nova launcher gp Nova settings >desktop >Icon label; for hiding the labels of the app shortcuts in the home screen

Download Desktop Visualizer from the Play Store and recreate all your app shortcuts using that. It will allow you to make a custom launcher for an application (can just keep using the same icon) and not use a label. It's free.
Thanks for your answers!
I'm using Sense 3.6. So maybe it's available for Sense and I just didn't see it...
I'll take a look at Desktop Visualizer.
I know it's possible to deactivate buttons but can I hide it?
ADW Launcher supports hiding the system bar, either by icon or a gesture of your choice.
The other launchers I don't know, trebuchet does not...

Trebuchet does support hidden notification bar, but I cannot figure how to show it.

Hi guys i recently bought an i5s replica phone mtk6572, but the default launcher they have put is kinda laggy, so i did install iLauncher which segnificantly improved the performance. My question is - is it possible to delete the default launcher they installed and also if not how can i make the notification bar transperent when using iLauncher. When im using the default launcher the notification bar is transperent, but when i use iLauncher it's not. The jpeg from homescreen is with iLauncher (not transperent noty bar). The jpeg from app manager is for the default launcher!

You can disable the default laucher in the app properties (2nd image) if you don't like/use it . If your phone is rooted then you can delete the launcher from system and also can use xposed modules to make the status bar transparent.
I don't have the option to disable it (its gray), but i can force stop it. Does this going to make any difference?
If you are currently using the stock launcher you can't disable it. First install any desired launcher and then disable stock launcher .

I did that - nothing happens. My whole point is to make that gray status bar transperent, because it really annoys me, but i guess that would not be possible without rooting my phone and installing a custom rom right?
Yes you must root your device to make status bar transparent or to install any custom rom .

You can easily delete default launcher
but you will need two things
1] rooted phone
2] replacement launcher
first root your phone, than install another launcher , whatever you want i will suggest solo launcher.
Then install an app Root App Delete.
Now delete the stock launcher , but before that set the new launcher as default.
: hope you dont brick your phone , though this is tested.:laugh:
