[Q] [REQ] - Clear Nav. Bar - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know if there is a theme that will make the Navigation bar clear? I don't mean to make it disappear, just make it see-through and still have the buttons functioning. I would like to make the most out of this amazing screen and have a full-screen, full-color display. (I already got rid of my notification bar

Why not use a ROM with expanded desktop and use something else to control the phone? Like GMD gesture control or LMT launcher

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

[q] [req] show/hide notification bar

Can anyone point me to, or if willing, develop an app or widget thats only function when pressed is to hide/unhide the entire notification bar?
I'm on miui, and its launcher. However, hiding the notification bar is not currently an option in the launcher.
I do not want to use ADW or LP on top of MIUI.
I'm thinking something simple like the app HELLOSTATUSBAR.
Any help would be greatly appreciated I have been searching for days trying to figure this out.
Did you have any luck?
Just wondering if you ever found a solution. I am in search of a solution for my preference. I would like to have the notification bar off the screen so I can have a full screen.. if I want to see it I would just touch the top and it would appear and drag down as usual to see notification bar. I do not want to change my launcher as I would rather modify that one feature only.
If anything is currently available or if anyone could enlighten me on how to do this myself I would be very appreciative.
Try adw launcher with which you can associate programs and actions (including hide/show notification bar) with gestures (swipe up/down). An elegant solution if I do say so myself, which I do, often.

There is an app, personally I used AOKP toggles on the Nexus 7 (im sure it will come to 4 soon) or in systemUI theres an XML you can edit (no clue which...) and set navigation bar height to something lower like 40 odd. 96 was stock on GNEX and 48 was stock on Nexus 7. Idk what's going to be stock on this device so make sure its not unsuitable

This is what i want to do, but for the entire system, maybe by long pressing the power button
Read this:
n Android 4.0, the APIs updated with new flags of SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION, that requests the navigation bar hide completely. Be aware that this works only for the navigation bar used by some handsets (it does not hide the system bar on tablets). The navigation bar returns to view as soon as the system receives user input.
You can also use SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LOW_PROFILE flag, to enables “low profile" mode for the system bar or navigation bar. Navigation buttons dim and other elements in the system bar also hide. Enabling this is useful for creating more immersive games without distraction for the system navigation buttons, and SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_VISIBLE flag to request the system bar or navigation bar be visible.
There's a AOKP ROM for the Nexus 4 which has
Nav Bar Transparency
Nav Bar Button Reorder: Back-Home-Search-Menu
Nav Bar Color Picker
Nav Bar Button Glow Duration: Off, Fast, Slow
Nav Bar: Long press to Search button
Nav Bar Hide on Lockscreen
So if you use that ROM with an app like HideBar it should meet all of your needs.

Hide navigation bar?

Is there a launcher that can hide the navigation bar on the home screen?
S' mobitela
No. Why do you only want to hide it while on the home screen?
Edit: If you just want to hide it period, you can use this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1243352&d=1344188251

You need a custom rom like PA in order to do that.
Or use lmt so which is pie, so you can now hide the navigation bar buttons in expanded mode.

You can also use gmd gesture control if you want to stay on stock but quickly hide/unhide navbar using gesture, even on custom roms its faster than having to hold power button and clicking expanded desktop

This is a great way to permanantly hide navbar but keep notification bar on stock but there is 2 problems i encountered with this method, 1st prob was the 3 dots would dissapear from chrome etc and on 4.2.2 i encoutered a flicker problem quite often but it sounds like the OP wanted to just hide the bar on home screen which im not sure why lol but if thats what he wants his best bet would be gmd gesture control or custom rom with expanded desktop mode

Agreed gmd gesture looks pretty cool.

All other app hide navigation bar and notification bar. I'm developing new root app that will allow to hide just navigation bar and replace it with auto hide status bar replacement :fingers-crossed:. No system files modification and no reboot required, but root is still needed.
Try it here and let me know what you think.

[Q] Removing navigation bar

Hi,
Is there any apk or launcher or mod that can remove navigation bar at the bottom?
I want to setup a second user for my little kid, setting up the Nexus 7 for her.
But, I want to remove all kind of user interface except ability to start some games from the home screen.
So far, I have this setup:
*APEX Launcher
- notification bar removed
- dock removed
- desktop locked
- pinch-in gesture to go to the app drawer
But, I don't know how to remove the navigation bar.
There is an app which I used before "immersive full screen mode", but it seems it doesn't work on Lollipop 5.1.
Thanks.
