Recently I came across an android application nameed StatusBar+ from the market. It is a custom status bar which remains on top even in case of full screen apps.
I want to know how can we show the status bar even in full screen apps.

I'd like to completely hide the status bar when in Immersive full-screen mode, for the purpose of running a kiosk app. All of the suggested solutions mention methods for preventing the status bar from getting fully expanded, but none show how to completely prevent the status bar from being displayed (then subsequently disappearing) when you drag down on the top of the screen. In Kiosk mode we don't want ANY ancillary activity occurring besides the dedicated app that is running on the device, despite how users may try to interact with the controls or screen.
Thanks in advance!
I need to block full screen mode for any App started in Android. That mean App can be opened, but status bar must be visible. I tried to search a lot of info, but still not luck.
I found App that always showing status bar - but issue is, status bar have transparent color and full screen app is not attached screen, with that status bar.
I have root phone and can modify any settings, but can't update firmware. Also i tried to make overlay over screen, but still no luck, all app just ignore my overlay
Thanks
You can do it in Xposed framework in App Settings module:

Just set Fullscreen to never for every application that uses it.
I am developing an app for Android and iOS in Unity3D.
The app on iOS looks like this picture from the web (The status bar is transculent and overlaps the actual app): http://www.appcoda.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Dark-Navigation-Bar-Light-Status-Bar.jpg (I can't post images yet)
But when I run the app on Android, the status bar is drawn outside the app boundries. This means that the app gets stretched and it does not look satisfying: http://oi60.tinypic.com/2i1nvb8.jpg
Is it possible to make the Android status bar overlap the Unity3D app on Android? And if so, is it then possible to make it translucent as on iOS or at least a darker matching color (as introduced in Android 5.0.0)?

Try this, it lets you decide when to display the menu and navigation bars. Also lets you color them.

I want to make my application go fullscreen in any android device. Hide the Title bar and also the notification bar. The application is supposed to run on a 10 inch tablet on Android 4.0.3.
I am using the following code but only the title bar disappears. I want to hide the notification bar also. Can anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong in my code ?
getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
try this
getWindow().getDecorView().setSystemUiVisibility(View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION);
Hope it helps.
Edit:
The SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION is a new flag 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. As such, this mode is useful primarily for video
playback or other cases in which the whole screen is needed but user
input is not required
.
The thing holding the navigation buttons back and home, time, network information etc is referred to as "navigation" bar.
You can not hide it within the given framework, but it is possible if rooting the device is an option for you:
Root device
Install and run Busybox
Install HideBar
In HideBar there is an option to run in 'Kiosk' mode, in which there is no way to re-display the navigation bar. Needless to say, you really need to be careful with this.

I'm looking for a way to hide the status bar that is displayed on the homescreen of the device, when not in any applications.
Does anyone know of a way to do this?
On Android 1.x and 2.x, you can write your own home screen.
On Android 3.x, this is impossible.
In all versions, you cannot remove the status bar from another application.
