Hello,
it unnerves me that each time one touches the status bar in Lollipop, the notification panel comes out. I want it like in earlier Android versions - that the notification panel comes only out when I swipe down from the status bar.
Is there any Xposed module which implements this?
Or any other system tweak perhaps?
Is now an optional feature in Gravitybox 5.1.3. Problem solved.

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.
Hello again,
there is another thing which bugs me in Lollipop, and perhaps one of the hardworking Xposers has a solution
When I touch the status bar, always the notification shade pops out and the rest of the screen darkens, regardless of where I touch the status bar.
This is markedly different than in previous Android versions, and it makes certain actions impossible or at least awkward:
- I want to set brightness by sweeping along the status bar (an old Samsung stock feature which is enabled in other devices by Gravitybox Xposed module). If the notification shade pops out, I can't see how bright the screen now is, because it is darkened when notification shade is activated...
- I want to use statusbar gestures (in "Gesture Navigation" Xposed module).
Is there a Xposed module which restores the old behavior (i.e., notification shade is only activated when pulling down finger from statusbar)?
Or a possibility to set some values in system files oder something like that?
Thanks in advance,
Hasenbein
No one an idea?
The app "Pin Tasking" is able to reserve one third of the status bar for its own swipe gesture (which but can only trigger the app's own actions), so what I want is definitely possible...
For all who are interested in this issue:
At least with Serajr's "Xperia Xposed" module it's possible to swipe along the status bar for setting brightness without the screen darkening.
Just took the ota and now I'm on lyz28j. I notice that the notification and soft buttons hide and I can't find a setting to disable it. Is this a new feature in lollipop?
I flashed the full LYX28J image because I use TWRP and I'm rooted. I still have the normal notification bar which does not hide except for full screen video. Soft buttons sometimes hide, but like they always have. Are you using the standard launcher? With Nova I can hide the notification bar.
Hi,
Is it possible to make the navigation bar be hidden while in the home screen outside of apps? Cause in apps you can hide it and go full screen.
Also is it possible to hide the top bar with the clock and icons kinda like the nav bar when it's hidden making that you have to swipe down ( up for nav bar ) to reveal it?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
in settings-> Display->Navigation bar
turn on the show and hide button setting
now double tap the dot on the far left of the nav bar (will turn into outline rather solid circle)
caveat nav bar will show up when virtual keyboard is activated*

No nav bar on home screen for me but might be because I'm running Google Now launcher
Is there a rom that has notification panel that shows the settings button and brightness slider on the first swipe just like in Miui? The settings button is on the top right, while the brightness slider is below the quick toggles.
If not, is there a way to tweak the notification panel to make it look like Miui?
you have the playstore app. Miui notification bar, and the voluMIUI (paid) for it.
but its on the bottom, as an overlay. So no, I've asked this too. sadly, could find it.
Thanks, I'll look in the play store.
