Every so often is my phone is busy, I manage to crash the notification bar so that it disappears from the screen. Even when I open other apps on my. This got me thinking. Is there a way I can hide the notification bar so that it's even hidden in apps and not just the home screen or other apps that don't have the option to hide it?

Hi,
I was wondering if there was a way to hide the status bar in my homescreens but have it reappear just when I receive a notification (so I can see the preview on the status bar).
Also, is there a way to hide my status bar in my homescreens but have it reappear by tapping the area where it would normally be?
I have looked for a way to do this but I have only found methods of completely hiding the status bar without being able to see it when necessary...
Thanks.
Has anyone found a way to do this?
I don't know if this is what you mean, but I use ADW (the paid one) and I have my status bar hidden and the home button pulls the notifications down when I want to see/check. If I get a notification, it doesn't stay down, but it is simple to hit the home button, check notifications and then slide it back up.
I was actually looking for something that would either:
1) show me the notification alert at the top of the screen even when I have hidden the status bar OR
2) allow me to see the status bar whenever I want (possibly a button press/gesture/etc.)
Thanks for the suggestion though.
Adw launcher or go-laucnher can do that.
hide the notification bar, use gesture to hide/unhide it
Yea ADW- Launcher does this. You can hide the notification bar permanently but then set a gesture to swipe down/up and you get it to pop up like it was always there. Do the same swipe and it goes away.
OK, thats good to know.
Thanks for the help.
Hi All,
I am Using my Xperia Z from two months. Good to have this phone. I have a problem to ask you.
I restricted the background data in the data usage menu. But i have a "Background data Restricted" Notification comes on my status bar. I don't want to see the notification there. Its something looks like a Danger Warning. How can i disable this notification.
Thanks

Anyone have this issue where notifications don't appear in the status bar? For example, whenever I get a text, sometimes I get the icon in the status bar but whenever it flashes in active display and I don't do anything, it actually doesn't appear in my status bar, thus I don't realize I got a text until I decide to open the app later.
It happens whenever my phone gets notifications and I don't do anything about it. I see active display go off displaying the notification though.
