[Q]Status Bar mods? - Acer Iconia A500

Are there any mods that allow you to tweak the status bar, add/remove items, hide the bar, etc.?

If you are rooted "HoneyBar" will hide the notification bar. Also look on github there's a free one there but you also need root for this.

Well, if you talk about the upper bar, installing Launcher ex or pro will remove that.
If you refer to the lower bar, you can get I believe Honeybar from the market. It's a paid app. Also, somewhere in the xda forums, there is a lik=nk to a free app that does the same thing.
You can make it appear when you want.
Note, that if you use a launcher app, and the bar remover, the screen may "shift". I think it depends on which you installed first. As I have encountered this a couple times after flashing roms, and installing apps.
I think the correct sequence, is to install the bar remover first, then the launcher app.

Thanks peeps! That's exactly what I need.

[Q] How do I get rid of icons in the top right of my notification bar?

Do I have to be rooted?
I want to remove the time, battery status, and alarm clock on/off icon.
Thanks.
You can run a home alternative like adw or launcher pro to choose to hide it.

No. I do not want to hide the entire bar, just those specific icons.
I'm interested also in removing those specific icons. The battery indicator is very inaccurate.

There is a "fix" for the inaccuracy. It's just loading up more graphics with incremental changes.
I use the switch pro widget which already contains a very accurate battery meter along with a bunch of other goodies.
The clock is useless to me simply because the lock screen before you get into your home screen contains a huge clock.
cyanogen gives these options. I dont know of another way. I have done one of the "accurate" battery mods and LOVE IT (check jonnybuenos theme out, amazing).

remove notification bar

hello
is there any way to hide the notifications bar on galaxy S i9000?
thanks
there are several apps in the market that can do that
but you will be in trouble without it
a lot of apps depends on the notification bar
if you don't have the bar, you will have no quick way to access those alerts
thanks
can you name me one app that do that?
i want to remove this while im driving with GPS to avoid the notofication bar will be stock like i had on my nexus one. this is really troble with amoled screens.
I use GDE as my Home replacement, It has an option for Fullscreen, which removes the notification bar

I do not know why you wanna hide it, but if you have launcher pro, there is an option to hide the notification bar.

Hi there...
This black notification bar somehow is ugly for this homescreen and this phone...isn't there any simple way to make it transparent or hide it without using third party application like launcher pro???
I don't think so.
Unfortunately you have to use a third party app to do this. That said, I'd love to see a mod to hide the clock, it bugs me to have one up there AND a clock widget.....
Back to topic: ADW has a hide option aswell....
I use ADWLaucher, I can hide/show the bar swiping the screen.
I use launcher pro to hide it with a swipe gesture on a dock icon to make it apear

How do you change ICON picture?

How do you change the app icon picture? I am rooted and running cyanogen nightly 110 with launcher pro. Yes I can change the dock icon but not the screen icon, it does not give you anything option to change to custom icon.......This question only few of you might know what I'm talking about.
Check out desktop Visualizer in the market.

thanks man
if you are rooted and not afraid of getting you hands dirty a bit, you can try using ninjamorph to change the icon permanently. It can replace any files you would like within a given application. If you like customization i recommend trying it. Ive changed icons, different color rosie buttons, and also icons in the status bar.

Wanam Xposed

To anyone who rooted their phone yet, have you tried Wanam on your ROM, and how well has it worked?

I tried the Wanam xposed module and it gave me weird results.
The normal behavior of holding home to view recent apps, broke and changed to search instead, making me unable to open recent apps.
The multiwindow option in Wanam added all apps to the multiwindow list, but they weren't actually there. For example, when trying to place baconreader app in my multi window list, it was actually Samsung Apps. Really strange.
***********************
HOWEVER
the multi window xposed module works beautiful
Also, 4 way power options didn't work.
Really buggy if you ask me.

Thanks for the reply! Have you tried some of the customization options like notifcation background, transparent toggles, changing status bar color and icons?

There are multiple ways to have a transparent navigation bar, especially if you have root. Most if not all custom ROMs such as CyanogenMod and Cloudyfa's ROMs come with this option in their settings pre enabled. I know CyanogenMod and Paranoid Android each have a feature called Immersive/Desktop Mode which auto hides the nav bar until you swipe up. What ROM are you currently using?
I'm using stock rom and I didn't want to use a different rom as there are some settinhs and stuff I wont be able to restore. I was looking to get this option without messing with the system.
