Hi!
so i want to hide the android status bar.
I already did this by putting every app in immersive mode via ADB.
BUT there is a little downside that drives me crazy.
I navigate to e.g. the homescreen by swiping up from the bottom of the screen.
With immersive mode on it needs 2 swipes. First swipe shows the status bar, second swipe brings me to the homescreen.
I use Nova launcher and there i can hide the status bar so that the bar will not be shown on the first swipe, but that works only outside any app.
Any idea how Nova Launcher does this?
I'm on Android 11 on a S20 FE 5G if thats of importance.
Thanks!

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.
Title is pretty self explanatory. I love Immersive/Expanded mode. I use LMT Launcher and LockerPro Lockscreen banner notifications, so don't need to see the status bar often. However, I do find it a little annoying to have to swipe to show the status bar, then swipe again to expand the notification drawer. I have tried a few status bar expander apps, but they just don't work unless I already swipe to show the status bar. I've looked around at various apps and Xposed modules, but haven't found that solution yet. Any ideas?
I believe that the status bar should be hidden and that screen real estate can be used for apps like Twitter and Instagram, while scrolling, for optimum utilization, only thing is Oxygen OS (latest build) puts a black bar after measures are taken to hide status bar. I tried using ADB commands and apps such as Fullscrn and GMD, however the status bar is then replaced with a black bar, and the app is unable to claim that space. I want the status bar to be hidden (accessible only with swipe down) and the apps to take that space besides the notch. How would I go about doing that:fingers-crossed:?

Hi I normally use bxactions to hide both the status bar and nav keys but it doesn't seem to be compatible yet and looks like Samsung have even stopped use been able to hide the softkeys
Does anyone know another way of having immersive mode I know it can be done with adb but doesn't that just leave us with a constant black bar at the top?
Thanks

Yeah, I tried hiding the status bar with ADB but it doesn't look right in most apps. You can still hide the navigation bar and use gestures, I'm just baffled that you can't hide the status bar in the default Samsung browser anymore. The option is still present on my Note 9 running an older version but on the Note10+ it's gone.

Ya I have the note 9 too and I've just got it set to immersive on the bxactions app but cannot seem to get it sorted on the note 10 I'm too paranoid about screen burn so its normally the first thing I do lol
On the Note 9, you can enable gesture navigation and then turn off the "hints" buttons, giving you a full screen experience. It should work the same way on the Note 10+.

Thanks I've tried that but don't like full gestures I like been able to swipe from the bottom and it brings up the softkeys also I'm after hiding the status bar the same way
You can use this to have an immersive mode toggle. You can choose what it hides. Status bar and nav bar or 1 or the other

When I use any app to hide the status bar on my rooted 7 Pro it will work until I lock the screen then it will stop working until I disable and re-enable.
Nova launcher hide status bar on homescreen always works.
And then when the statusbar is hidden, the keyboard when it slides out, will either push the top of the app out of bounds, or the app will not condense and the keyboard will hide the bottom of the chat including where the text is going.
Is this a common problem with hiding the statusbar, or is this an internal issue I am facing.
-Thanks
