sup
can any1 tell me how I can remove the google search bar? I try to kill the process but i cant use the space (like by my Nexus)
I hope somebody can help me
An alternative Launcher removes the bar
thats the only way i know so far...
removing is possible (dunno find the video on the tube now), but it is already possible.
the problem is that the free space is left unused/unusable....
Launcher is not a option cuz I will use the new Optimus UI with all features.
This is the Video space79 is talking about (start at 3:30)

Just stop & deactivate the Google Search process in Settings >> Application (App Manager)

The top status bar is a waste of space to me and quite annoying when I am browsing the web in landscape mode as it takes up precious real estate.
I would really like to be able to hide the status bar from showing anywhere on the phone (including while I am in apps), yet still be able to swipe down to see notifications if I need to.
Is there any way I could do this? Perhaps once I'm rooted or a certain rom?
Thank you for your help.
The Nova launcher (Play store) has an option to show or hide the notification bar. Touching the top edge makes it visible if it has been hidden.

Launchers (like Nova) only hide the notification bar while you are on the homescreen.
I on the other hand, want to hide the notification bar throughout the entire phone, even while I'm in applications.
Is there any way to do this?
If you can root and get xposed (which doesn't work with ART), you can install the "Immerse Me" module, which will do exactly what you are asking for.
"Precious real estate".....3/16ths of an inch? Lol
K.....I got that out of the way.
Did you Google this? For real? There seems to be some ways where you have to edit this file or that. But no guarantee it works ....and to me seems like it could cause trouble.
So you could fire up Google and try these ways.....must be rooted of course.........or you could just leave well enough alone and live with that 3/16ths of space being taken up.

There is an app in the Play Store that accomplishes this without root called Immersive Full-Screen Mode ($1.29). The keyboard doesn't work right now, which might be a showstopper for you (I only use it for things like Play Newsstand or an e-reader app so I don't mind), but the dev is very active so the keyboard issue may be fixed eventually. It's worth a look, at any rate.
Looking like a temp fix but I need something to work for now. I do I enable the action bar at the bottom of the screen. I don't want to have to install an entire new rom with this pre-enabled just to get the bar. Is there an app in the store that can enable this functionality?

Not quite the same implementation, and I haven't tried it on my Note3 but Button Savior was a similar thing I used on my eink Nook when I had it in semi tablet mode. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smart.swkey
is this possible in stock rom?
I'm tired of missing the space on keyboard because the phone thinks that I want to swipe up, I tried apps that disable the default action but this LG modified version show 2 icons and I can only disable search.
I don't want it to show up at all.
Google now is disabled btw
I have the 405N model (if this helps)
Thanks
Hello guys,
Here is my problem. I usually let the navigation visible by default on my Note 8. I use them all the time, especially in apps like Whatsapp, where having a swipe up gesture to make them appear is not acceptable for my experience.
But for some apps, this white bar happens to be unsightly, especially for apps like Spotify or 9Gag, which don't require a lot of interaction with the softkeys and have a pretty decent in-app navigation experience without softkeys.
I am trying to find an app to hide my Navigation Bar (the softkeys) for a specific list of app, and make it appear again when I leave these apps.
I am not talking about enabling the "Expanded Desktop mode" for these apps, but only to hide the softkeys.
Thank you, guys !
Hopefully this will help other users to settle with the same issue
