Hi all,
I wondered if it's possible to remove the bottom navigation bar. I'm using the latest CROMI 4.5.
Most threads say to use the full screen apps, but these remove the status bar also which I wish to keep. So ask in all I'd like to keep status bar I.e on 4.2 but remove the navigation bar and instead use LMT.
Thanks
Edit: solved with app GMD HIDE SOFT KEYS.

I suggest using GMD Gesture Control. It enables you to use gesture to hide/reveal your status bar and such with ease. It also allows you to modify what gestures do what on your tablet. It's VERY convenient.
I hope this helps!
Edit: Oh oops, I missed seeing the edit part. Same branded apps, still works. lol
Yeah! Got it sorted so was okay in the end! Thanks for the GMD tip though.

now we have root, we'll finally be able to use apps to hide status/menu bar.
I've found several ones and don't know if someone already test them on Thinkpad ?
- HoneyBar (not test yet)
- StatusbarToggle (don't succeed to use it, long press on search button don't do anything)
- Hide Bar (cannot show back the status bar by swyping the bottom of the screen, maybe I should try this)
- TabletBar Hider (hide with rotation; not tested)
- script for Tasker (I don't have tasker)
- hide the system bar via power menu (not tested)
and another one I forget te name (but that cause me to wipe the tablet because power button doens't seems to work correctly anymore...)
I'm using Honey Hide Widget ( https://market.android.com/details?...251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS52bGFyYS5ob25leWhpZGUiXQ..) By far one of ugliest apps I've seen but works great.

Also using this app. Yes it is a tad ugly, but works wonderfully and it is quite small.
Honey hide widget just works, thats my choice, very simple too.
Thanks for this widget, works good (but I don't understand why using 2 buttons? One would be enough...)
For the moment, I find that hide bar and honey hide are the bests.
Honeybar causes some lag and most video player have also the play button on the bottom center of the screen.
And I remember the apps that I suspect to makes my power button not working, it's "no system bar".
HoneyHide Widget has been updated to address your concerns
So far I've tried HoneyBar and HoneyHide Widget. Both work well, but I prefer a clean home screen, so I'd rather use an app than a widget.
The new HoneyHide Widget does work well with the hard Home button on the TPT.

How do you use it? It did not appear in the app or widget list after installing.
e: required a restart is all.

I have the same question. Any app or way to hide ics status bar?
There is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487647&page=4 this thread but as it is a custom settings panel, probably it won't contain the 'pen only' button anymore etc. Did anybody try this?
Or can anybody do a version for the thinkpad ics?
Or any other solutions?
Thanks

Thanks for the help, Hidebar works for me, although this one (not sure if the two are the same):
GDM HideBar (it is the same as the one used in the GDM gesturecontrol, only that this is free and is only for hiding the bar)

i used it to resize navigation bar
and many mod statusbar
I was wondering if there is a tweak out there to be able to hide the notification bar until you swipe down from the top? Basically a similar idea to how you can hide the windows start bar until the mouse is at the bottom of the screen.
You can do this with apex or nova launcher...

Thanks for the lead. I'll check it out.
This may have been discussed elsewhere but I wanted to get rid of the action bar as it uses too much real estate on the screen. This is easily done in settings>system>power menu expanded desktop. However this leaves no home, back or recent apps button. In comes LMT available on xda. It has a configurable slide pie launcher which when set replaces the action bar but only appears when you slide your finger in from the side.
I don't often post but this has pleased me greatly and I wanted to share.

Hello
Is there a way we can get the status bar to hide automatically, and then swipe from the top when it's needed?
Similar to the app: smart status bar.
But, instead of the killing the system ui, can we just get the status bar as an overlay over the screen that will disappear soon? And then we swipe and it overlays?
Sorry if I posted this in the wrong section, I wasn't sure where to request this.
Thanks!

Similar, but that doesn't do what I'm asking.
I was planning on having the status bar with the description above, and then GMD gestures.

Xposed is still not supporting lollipop yet, gravity box doesn't work. Pie is not supporting L either.
I have been spoiled by pie and full screen. Any current alternative solution? Thanks!

I've install but dont find how to hide the original navbar ? Thx
solution
Been trying to figure this out recently myself.
The below 2 apps have worked for me. Must be rooted though.
I have a htc one m8.
1. Softkey enabler by Fate Development Group (disable softkeys)
2. Pie control by Coolace (run at startup)
Only side affect I see is I cant seem to have a pin security lock anymore. Pattern works though.
Im looking for fullscreen aswell, full immersive mode causes issues with the keyboard on lollipop, i think the issue is the navbar but i can disable the navbar but cannot get the status bar to act immersive on its own. I can use GMD to get full immersive but causes issues with the keyboard due to the immersive navbar. Is there an app that makes only the status bar immersive or a way to edit an .apk to disable navbar immersive whilst keeping status bar immersive?
You can get near with nova prime. It dumps the top bar and makes bottom transparent
Look here.
