[Q] Hiding the Android bar

Hi there. I love my Xperia Z on the great whole, but I was wondering if there was a way (via an app maybe) to auto-hide the grey android bar and then maybe making it reappear by swiping in from the side? It's kind of annoying having it there take up space, when you'd like to use up the entire screen.
Thanks!
PS: if its possible, am I able to do it without rooting? I dont wanna Lose the bravia engine feature

I highly recommend using the SEARCH option. Will save you loads of time.

Um... yes, thanks. But I can't seem to find any topics regarding hiding the bar without rooting. Does this mean it can't be done?

There's no need to reply "go search" in every thread. If you don't want to answer the question - why bother replying at all ?

The answer is no - it can't be done without root, sorry.

Ah, well that might be a good alternative. Is there anything you can recommend?
And will a launcher overwrite the original UI all together?

If I'm not mistaken it's the same that exists on Z3 for some time now. You can find it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...allpaper-xperia-live-wallpaper-2-0-0-t2867665
If that doesn't work, maybe try the latest one from here:

Hello, is there a way to change the clocks for the lockscreen? Other then those 3 options? I'm on stock rooted firmware.
Thank you!

Download other clock widgets from the app store, long press on the lockscreen clock - swipe up to delete - and long press again to choose the widget you prefer.

I've never been so glad to be on the old version of Android. Lollipop is the first update that seemed to take away more useful features than it added.

Idk whats in googles mind. I like the way it looks like. But f.e. Mem leak, silent mode are really disappointing

Agreed, but material design is a bit overrated to me. The colors almost look to cartoon-like and I feel like a simple theme could have been applied to kitkat to give us the same look.
Anyway, that's the great thing about Android. If you don't like it, you can always change it.

Thats the game. Dont like it, dont play it. And we have alternatives. Miui f.e

I like Android 5.0 , but the ability to change the lockscreen clock doesn't have to be removed, oh well, waiting for Andoird M then

[Q] Will marshmallow bring back Z3 Particle Effects?

Will marshmallow bring back good old and the best Z3 Particle Effects same like Kitkat??
Almost all users miss it.
Lollipop only allows it on stock xperia live wallpapers but Kitkat allowed it on any wallpaper applied.
I want somebody to convey this to sony.

Oh god... I HATED those particles, they always made me feel the animations on the phone are slow and sluggish. This should be optional, yes, but not applied to every wallpaper.

I ain't. I'm letting him know there's competition, so he could better his own app, or end up coming with something entirely new and better.
