Hiding the System Bar

So I am trying to figure out a way to hide the main menu bar (from SystemUI) on my G9 101. I am running ICS 4.0.4 rooted.
I noticed that the startup wizard is able to control the availablity of the home button and recent apps button. The back button is still visible, but it seems like the wizard takes control of what it does.
So I disasembled settings.apk and settings.odex to try and figure out how this is done. It seems like a call to:
Code:
view.setSystemUiVisibility(20905984);
is the code that makes this work. I inserted that into my application, but did not get the same result. Any body have any ideas as to how I can make this work in my application? Is there a way to grant the same capabilities to my code that the settings.apk has? Do I need to install my application in some other location?
Any other ideas how I can use the setup wizard as some way to launch my application without having the systemui elements?
Thanks!

Now that the source is out - does this mean I (or someone) will be able to do this more easily?
Thanks

ICS source code is out for quite some time. BUT this doesn't include Archos specific changes (like 3G stick support etc)

[Q] How to Remove Split View on OmniMetal

im on OmniMetal 4.4.2 kitkat w/ mpokang cm kernel. im on Paranoid Android 3.99 before. i want to try the split view feature on omni so i switch. the split view feature on this rom sucks! sometimes it crash or only showing 1 window. so i installed (via xposed) halo floating window. it works fine. but sometimes its crashing too, i guess its the split view thingy. i want to remove the split view and use halo floating window. I want to switch to Paranoid Android 4 but im too lazy to backup and install all my apps again.
anyone know how to remove split view?

Install navigation bar (soft keys)

is there a way to install navigation bar and soft keys for Galaxy Tab 10.1 like some of the Nexus devices have. I use the 10.1 in portrait mode and prefer to have keys on screen.
What program/method has worked for any of you? I have Xposed installed and am willing to try anything.

If Xposed is in, you can use gravity box to enable the nav bar. You're rooted, so you can also just edit the build.prop file and drop in a line at the end that reads
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
I've backed away from gravity box in cm11 as it may be related to some odd 'misses' I'm getting in the browser - but that may be more to do with the app settings module and dialing up the size of things in the aosp browser.

So gravity box will do it safely? Have you tried gravity box to do it?

It works but only 3 dot menu key pops up in portrait mode. I tried disabling 3 dot menu on navbar reboot and still same thing. How do I get it to work in portrait?
And touching the bar in other places when in portrait doesn't get a response.

Disabling Nav bar stops camera buttons working??

Hey all
I've never been a fan of nav bars, on previous phones I have been able to remove the Nav Bar and then use LMT launcher instead.
Although this causes issues on the G3, when you remove the nav bar you can no longer press any buttons on the camera app? Anyone got any idea how to fix this?
I've tried editing the build prop and using the lg xposed module and it happens on both

If you use LG Pie Support xposed module, it has a hook that sets the navbar @ 0px and hidden, so it's active but not visible/usable.
Only issue w/ this is that some apps will make space at the bottom of the screen as if the navbar is present.

From me a working way was to "disable navigation bar via G3 toolbox module" that make the camera app work. (but i found a problem in stock web browser that you can not use copy/paste function)

I've tried the toolbox, didn't work for me :/. I'm going to try it again, because I prefer the stock camera over 3rd parties. (I'm using 3rd party because I don't like the navbar space the fore mentioned G3 Pie Support causes)

Pop-up View/Multi-Window settings?

I frequently use the Galaxy S6's Pop-up View feature to use multiple apps at once. However, although I know how to resize the windows, they don't seem to be able to get small enough for my liking.
I'd like to be able to resize the Pop-up View apps to about a quarter of the screen or a bit smaller, effectively giving me the ability to float as many as four apps on the screen without overlap. However, the current settings will stop resizing the window at a minimum size of about 55-60% of the screen, effectively meaning it is impossible to even have two floating apps without any overlap.
Is there any way to force the Pop-up View feature to allow floating apps to resize smaller than the current minimum? Also, is it possible to force "unsupported" apps into a floating window like you could with the Note 3's Pen Window feature?
I am currently using the stock odexed 5.0.2 rom with root.
On a related note, does the S6 handle DPI changes ok in system apps, or will they crash or display incorrectly as they did on the Note 3? (Maybe a DPI change can allow Pop-up View to display smaller?)

No quick way that I've found to make popup window smaller than stock. I've tried putting in quad view XML files from A Galaxy S4 mod with no luck. If I remember, I did not replace the multiwindow.jar along with it. I think it needed A way to actually launch them in A quad view. I could probably be done though with knowledge on jar files.
For allowing all apps in miltiwindow/popup view, there is
1. (my preferred method) Multiwindow Commander [Root] on the play store (paid). Shows notification for enabling newly installed apps in multiwindow.
2. MW-Pen app Enabler (play store, free/paid)
3. Xposed and wanam xposed Lollipop.
Changing the DPI effects the Camera app pretty badly I remember, but looks very nice on this screen.
I don't know if A workaround like Xposed App Settings works for the camera dpi.
