I have a LG Optimus L9. I recently enabled the navigation bar through a build.prop edit. I was hoping if there was a way I could hide the navigation bar on only specific apps like games, but have it enabled on every other app. Hiding it on games isn't an issue because my phone has soft buttons that I can use if the on-screen navigation bar isn't there.

hi,
anyone knows/can suggest what could replace our trusted "honeybar" for ICS? honeybar - of course - will not work since it's for honeycomb
I tried HideBar app, but it's a hit or miss App, sometimes it works most times you'll find it hard to bring the Status Bar up,compared to honeybar wherein it's so responsive.
any other suggestions aside from the paid GestureControl Full/Lite and Hide Bar?

Have you tried a Launcher that supports hiding of the notification bar? Go Ex and HD, Adw, and etc. They can hide the status/noti bar with gestures or a click.
gesture control
Gesture control is awesome for ics will hide bar and bring it back with a three finger swipe. Plus you can use gestures to replace the soft keys you hide.
People... sometimes I miss all the 4.7 screen for games or reading. Then I thought about an easy way to turn the notification and status bar on and off at my will, not needing to reboot the phone or mess with the build.prop everytime.
My phone is the xt925 and I use ICS 4.0.4 Retail Brazil rooted.
All you need are two programs (they are paid and totally worth the money) + ROOT (rooting is very important for them to work). Of course you can try other programs. I´m not advertising. I´m just giving an idea.
Download 'GMD hide bar' to have control over the notification and status bar at your will. And also download 'Virtual Button Bar' to replace the notification bars.
When I want to read my ebooks or play some games I use these 2 programs and they always work pretty well.
Also, Virtual Button Bar has a really nice function that is: The button controls stay hidden on the position you want of the screen and then, if you just pass your finger in front of the light sensor (don´t even need to touch the screen), they appear.
Its really convenient and awesome!
Hope you enjoy!

I tried GMD Hide Bar on my Maxx HD running JB (4.1.1) but every time it hid the Navigation Bar on the bottom it also hid the Status Bar on the top. I've found several apps that'll hide them both but no app that'd hide the bottom bar and NOT the top bar. I assume that the reason these apps are set up like this is that in tablets running JB the two sets of functions are BOTH in the bottom bar, not in two separate bars. Have you been able to get GMD Hide Bar to hide the Navigation Bar and not the Status Bar?
Hello guys, I'm having a trouble with navigation bar, I'm using FlymeOS 4.5.4.3r on my XT1033, and this rom don't have navigation bar by default, I made the navigation bar appear with a edit in build.prop, but when I'm playing a game every touch on screen makes the navigation bar appear.
In XT1033 stock roms, when I open a game, the navigation bar and the status bar only appear if I slide from top to bottom of screen, is there a way to make it in this rom?
I use Swipe Navigation to operate my phone (LG G4 h815, MM Imperium ROM). I disabled navigation bar after the edit build.prop. When I try change some aplication's android permission cropped popup "Screen overlay detected". I checked this and it is Swipe Navigations fault. When I disabled this I can't use phone because I haven't navigation bar. Switching navigation bar before each change permissions is realy onerous. Is any way to solve this? I converted Swipe Navigation as system app.
How do i permanently make my navigation bar black? Its freakin annoying. Lmao.
X2
I also would like to know...
i'm using nacho notch to make my navigation bar black
What could be annoying about the navigation bar? Its how you navigate around your phone.... If you don't want too see it just enable system gestures so its complete hidden.
Now if you mean the bar up top that's not the navigation bar, that's the notification bar.
