Is there a way to hide or remove the Settings icon (gear shaped) that appears at the top when status bar is pulled down? I have 5x with pure nexus Rom.

i use nova launcher. i have it set to always hide the status bar by default, but when i swipe down itll show/hide it.
if the rom you are using has the expanded desktop feature, you can enable it to disable both status bar and nav bar thus making your gnex full screen

im using bigxie's stock 4.2 right now, i tried using cm 10.1, but after a factory reset i flashed it and my phone just went crazy so i went back to stock roms again :/
GoLauncher gives you that option for only when using launcher...to hide status bar: preferences/appearance settings/uncheck show status bar OR GET THIS APP
GMD Hide Bar (must be rooted) https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5nbWQuaGlkZWJhciJd I tried this app...works good on ICS
Hey,
Does anybody knows if it's possible showing android's notification bar while using fullscreen mode?
I found this cool app called full!screen.
It allows you to use fullscreen mode and gives you 2 buttons on the bottom corners with adjustable size and transparency, one of them is HOME and the other is BACK, you can slide them and get more options like RECENT APPS or canceling the fullscreen mode...
The only thing that missing here is the notification bar, its a deal breaker for me and I really want to use this fullscreen feature.
If there are any ideas please feel free to shoot
Thanks

I've tested several things with stock and Nova, but no luck. I was surprised the nova action for expand notifications wouldn't work. This isn't with the app you mentioned, though, it is with AOSPA and JDX, both of which have full screen options built in. The custom ROMs that have this feature built in typically allow you to show the notification bar. You could combine a custom ROM that allows removal of nav keys without removing status bar, then use a launcher like Nova to hide the status bar on the home page.

Thanks it sounds like a great idea, I'll try it :good:
p.s. why hiding the status bar on the home page?
Not sure if this is what you want but Smart Statusbar let's you access the notification bar from full screen apps.
Edit: just downloaded full!screen to try it out and it doesn't seem to work with that app.
full screen and keeps status bar
pie navigator
make sure to set up 'pie' controls before setting full screen and rebooting, or you'll be stuck with no way to navigate

I only mentioned that because I wasn't sure if you wanted the status bar or just wanted access to the notifications. I prefer having the status bar so I can easily see the time, battery, notifications, etc., but many prefer to hide the status bar for aesthetic reasons. With Nova, you can hide the status bar but still swipe down to expand notifications.
Use PA. Then go to hybrid properties, and set the Navigation Bar to 0%. This would make the nav bar disappear and trigger pie but with the status bar still at the top

Finally I used "button savior" app and than removed the softkeys by editing BuildProp file using "BuildProp Editor" adding the line: "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1", Reboot and that does it, no softkeys. Thanks for the advice for removing the softkeys :good:
I also prefer the status bar on... when I hide the status bar (using nova) there's no option pulling it back
Hi, I'd like to change the notification bar so it could be a picture or a color but not transparent. I have Tweaked rom. It's just annoying, I can't see very well.
Have you tried tsm parts>status bar settings and scroll down to bottom?

So we can "hide" the notch which is fine but it will still use each side if the notch to show icons which I hate because it only shows like 2 icons on each side. Is there a way to disaply a full notification bar under the notch?
On the right side I see the battery icon and time and on the left I see the LTE with signal status so i basically leaves me with only 1 notification icon...
tap over status bar to xpand and see other notification icon

I know that but I prefer to see the icons without having to open the menu every time.

bcoz of notch thats not possible,i think
I just randomly found out that if you tap either side of the notch, it will display a second bar with the icons for 3 seconds

Same problem here. I think it's a known bug in OOS12.
Having the same issue. The toggle is there under Settings > Notifications & status bar > Status icons but it doesn't hide the icon. Tried turning the icon off and rebooting to no avail.
