Change position of status bar? - General Questions and Answers

Hi, does anyone know of a method to move the location of the status bar from top to the bottom, but retaining the same phone ui?
Thanks

I dont think thats possible.

Nothing's impossible, it's probably just really hard...

Is it possible to get rid of the provider bar at the top...the one that states who you use?, or a way to hide the start taskbar at the top?
thanks

Editing Notification Bar

I'm looking for a way to edit my HTC Incredible Notification/Status Bar. I was wondering if there is a way I can make the bar at the top of the screen bigger. I have a case on my phone that I really like and the top of the case stops right as my screen starts. So it is difficult to pull down my notification bar with the case on. I don't necessarily have to resize it if I could move it or maybe get an icon for it, or something.. Any solutions would be appreciated.

[Q] Status bar icons to far right on left side.

I flashed a ROM on to my Galaxy SIII, and everything is great, it is just the icons in the status bar do not look right. They are to far from the edges of the screen, and it is more annoying that I though. I just need to know what file in the ROM holds the data for icon placement in the status bar so I can fix it. Below is a picture of what I am talking about.
PS I hate that battery icon. How can I get the old one back?

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?

Do you mean that you can't pull down the notification shade? If so, I'm having a similar issue, and finding that when I rotate the phone so that the nav buttons are where the status bar usually is, they don't respond.
I removed the screen protector and also factory restore. Neither one work.
I went back to where I bought. And got a 1 to 1 replacement, as the phone is only 10 days old.
