Hi there,
In currently running RAY side bar, but it has an icon in the status bar...
Are there any apps that exist that allow the launching of apps from inside the system tray? (Thus allowing me to remove the sidebar)
Everything I've found is rather old in the play store
Anyone please?

Just wondering if there is a way to hide the non-system icons in the status bar.
I see a few threads about hiding the system apps, but not for the icons on the left hand side of the status bar.
I've seen some references to doing this by using smali/baksmali to recompile a services.jar file - has any less "dangerous" method surfaced more recently to allow this?

I would like to any is there any way i can hide certain application being shown
in the application manager------packages.
I am owning samsung galaxy ace 2.3.6
Just hide the icon and still use the application or hide the icon and stop the applications from running?
Give your thread a title.

and then i accidentally the whole android.
hide the icon and keep the application running.
The problem is the program is being shown in the packages menu.
If you mean applications in the system menu showing the installed packages, you can't hide them from there.
Hi there. I was wondering if there is any possibility to temporarily turn off the black status bar on the bottom of the screen (that bar with back button etc.). Sometimes it can get pretty annoying (for example when I'm playing some games, or watching movies). Of course, I don't want to delete it completely, i just want to hide it for some time and then reapply it again.
I found out, that when you delete cache of all apps (incl. system ones) in Titanium Backup, the bar will vanish, but after restart, it's there again. Anyway, this method is pretty lengthy, so I am asking, if anyone knows, how to do that quickly.
Many thanks for any help.
GMD Gesture Control
You may use GMD Gesture Control from the Market. There you can use a gesture to hide/unhide the statusbar. I tried it and it works, but you need root.
This is the free version:

Thank you very much! I have root, so that's no problem for me. Gonna try it for sure!
When you use that gesture control app to hide the system bar, do video applications (thinking Netflix, mx player here) and games fill up the empty space or does it leave a black bar where the system bar was? This is the only reason why I would root and unlock my tf300t right now, I'd be pissed to find out after the fact that it leaves a black bar!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I know the homescreen fills the empty space, so I assume other apps would too. I'll test it with Netflix and get back to ya.
edit: works! and the app itself is great
I googled whole day and didn't find the solution for the simple thing. How can I hide the preview of the message from the status bar? Seriously, what is the purpose to install app for blocking apps from the opening, if everything could be spotted from the status bar? SMS, Email, Whatsapp, etc. - just swipe down, and here the "private" content! Is there any app, mod, module (you name it), which will show notification icon only without possibility to read its content?
Thank you for attention!
I have installed a white theme that i really like but now the text from status bar can't be seen as it is also white. Is there any way without root to change text colour or background? Changing the theme picture top could also be an option if i could find it and paint it dark but it's downloaded from theme store. Can it be found and be modified?
Did you find a way around this?
I once had an app called super status bar installed. It doesn't affect the original status bar (because AFAIK that's not possible without root) - but it replaces it completely and you can customize it then freely.
There are probably several other status bar replacement apps on the Play Store too, there should be something fitting for you.
