I'm really digging Paranoid Android and the extended dekstop mode... That being said, I really miss my status bar. While the Pie control is a fantastic replacement for the bottom control bar, it's much less functional and efficient when it comes to displaying information and notifications.
I miss seeing my time, reception and notifications all the time.
I'd like to get the best of both worlds - Pie Control, with a Status Bar, but so far I haven't had any luck with settings. Is this possible at this point at all?

Yep, just set navbar to 0% in hybrid properties>interface>workspace
Just FYI, the paranoid android team is working on improving the pie so notifications show up as a "tickler" even in pie mode

I must be missing something. I set navbar to 0% as instructed, but the status bar still doesn't show up.
Also, I would like to have a customizable PIE control. There is currently no way to add buttons to PIE. When I'm on AOKP, I always add two buttons to the navbar - menu and search. The menu button is very handy as I can hit it and it shows "Nova Settings" and "System Settings," the two setting menus I use very frequently.
While the search button is on PIE, the menu isn't. Unfortunately, I can't live without it.
[EDIT] Nevermind... you do allow the menu button to show up in PIE. The position can't be changed, but it's a lot better than I mistakenly thought. Sorry!
Make sure not to enable expanded desktop if you're just trying to hide the navbar, if you just set the navbar to 0% it'll hide it and you won't need expanded desktop.
And make sure to press the "apply" button.
Forgot it myself ^^

Yo thanks so much for this. Just like the OP I love the pie control but always need the constant status bar. My man!

Yeah, but now the second ring (date, time etc) never shows up. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong ?
I posted this in another thread a while ago but didn't get an answer.
Is there a way to get the Notification bar AND the notifications in the PIE format too? Let me explain. Right now, I have full-screen PIE controls and in the settings I have the Pie type set to "Quick" which brings up the notifications right when Pie gets activated. I really like that functionality and I want to keep it. Is there any way to get that when using the above-posted solution? I can get the Notification bar and Pie controls just like what was posted, but I also want the notifications to pop up when I activate Pie. Anyone get that to work?
Had the same issue

Had the same problem as I switched back from using JellyBam to Paranoid Android. As the Paranoid Settings are persistent on the SD card I figured that was where the problem was. I had set the Nav bar to 0% in the Paranoid Settings as that was the only way to hide it in JellyBam, which meant that upon launch already it was set like that. My Pie menu was also not displaying the second ring, however when I set the Nav bar back to 100% and then enabled Expanded Desktop it all of a sudden started working again.
I'm not sure if it was because of the change in the Nav bar size or that I played with the different layouts, but it made the Pie menu work as per usual again. One more thing to mention is that despite where I had tried to set the Pie gravity to before doing all this it never took effect, even after a restart. Now all is fine again.
So play with your layout setting (tablet, phablet, phone) and then set them back to your preferred ones and see if that works.
I know it's most likely not exactly your scenario but am hoping that somehow this helps.

It is not possible to have the full pie and status bar at the same time because it is redundant as said by moles the dev of pa. But they are working on pie2 as of now.

For some reason I see my status bar everywhere except my home screen(._.) Paranoid 3.6 with Nova Launcher...
Any idea why ?

Use your 2 finger and pinch your home screen to enable status bar/ navigation bar.

Hey guys I just flashed paranoid android and I can't get my status bar to come back with these instructions.. any advice? This is driving me nuts.
used paranoid android for a month.
I used paranoid android for a month on my note 2, and from my short experience I know messing with it's settings kinda sucks... I would recommend taking the nav bar to 0%. And then to download LMT launcher and put it in the bottom of the screen. Don't forget to leave full screen mode. Hope I helped :cyclops:

Hope its not too late, just hold down the off-button and unselect "fullscreen", this will bring your notification bar back

Hey guys, so I've followed a guide to get immersive mode all the time, just wanna say first of all that is awesome and that I regret not taking a look at it sooner, finally the 6.2" are actually 6.2 (I just thought it would have worked like ****); I was wondering if it's possible to extend immersive mode to when the keyboard is open, it works perfectly everywhere BUT when the keyboard is open.
Thank you!
I don't even know what immersive mode is? haha Where is the setting for that and what does it do?

That would be the ability to hide the status bar as well as the navbar so that you can get the full size of the screen with nothing wasted. What I really liked is that you can choose either navbar or status bar or both although I ended up choosing both but still it's good to have the choice

Where can this be toggled on? and if the navbar is invisible then how do you go back the homescreen/ back to the previous page?

You can see it by swiping up from the bottom and you can see the status bar by swiping down from the top. This is the guide I followed

Not quite the same thing, but if you want more screen real estate and don't want to full-on hide the status and / or nav bars, you can come close to "immersive" (and increase viewing area) by tweaking dpi in Developer Options, changing font / zoom in Display, and working with keyboard sizing--some discussion here https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/view-content-screen-t3594320 .
I tried the adb - immersive, and it works fine. Issue I had was that a couple of apps that I regularly use have their own app-specific nav bars at the bottom of their window, and swiping up to get the system nav bar with my fat fingers invariably interacted with the app's nav bar. Now, I use the higher dpi setting which yields a nicely larger viewing screen with much smaller status and nav bars.

I have (fortunately) none of these apps since I'm really loving this immersive mode, the dpi trick can work indeed, I had 560 ish set as min width, I still kept that even though I'm in immersive mode now but I'm really glad everything is working properly
The gray status bar is hideous, especially with a black screensaver.
Anyone knows how to turn to normal mode statusbar with root or xposed ?
I will like to have power save mode enabled but without grey status bar on homescreen or in apps.
Hi,
In Android Nougat the bar behaves the same way in Power Saving mode that it does in normal mode. So, upgrade your phone, get a fresh new android version and get rid of the hideous gray bar.
All the best,
~Lord

Nougat isn't good for my device .
Poor battery life and no Xposed.
So I will wait for an Xposed module to appear.
Anyone has something new ?

The status bar color does not change even with power saving. I'm in nougat

Maybe try a status bar replacement?
If you use xposed try Flat Style Bar Indicators, not sure if it would work or not as its for adjusting the icons... just a suggestion
or get rid of your status bar completely thats how i use my phone (immerisve mode)
Hi,
I want to use automatic hide status bar. Im using automatic hide navigation bar like this. How i can do automatic hide status bar and use my rooted s8 full screen
Systemui tuner in play store will do it. Immersive mode. I got it in full. You can also do it as on unrooted devices. I have Xposed with gravity box which suppose to do it but doesn't. This app I found does it on the s8 and nicely. Add seconds to the clock and turn off icons. Check it out. It is by zacharee1, the app.
Here is my home screen. The status bar comes and goes with the nav bar. I hated seeing the status bar.
It is looking very nice. I cant install magisk or xposed. I tried everything and open a post in xda. But i cant use it still. I will change my rom and try to flash magisk or xposed again

Hello world~
I've been trying your XDA's Navigation Gesture on my Samsung Galaxy S8 (which is great ) but for some random reasons, it stopped working; like the pill was still here and I still could do the movement but it had no effect at all... so I thought just reinstalling the whole app thing would fix the bug... but no, it didn't! Instead, the Navigation Gesture still doesn't work and my initial NavBar just disappeared (Idk how to get it back). So now I have 2 problems! Can someone please help fix my phone, it getting really annoying.
Thx by advance.
To get the nav bar back disable hiding the nav bar and re enable it from the app
But first use root or adb to give it permission

So I need first to give all permission back (including adb one) before disabling `hide navbar` and then I can delete the app?

I have seen the notification somewhere while enabling the gesture which says "Remember to unhide the navigation bar before uninstalling". Install the app, give the app permissions, unhide the navigation bar, and then install the app.
