I have now. The code you linked is the exact direction I thought I had to head in with what I posted earlier in the thread. Looks like I just lost a night's worth of sleep.

Thank you Smile (not sarcasm)

Yeah, go figure. I am in the process of bringing the code changes into the work I did previously. Should have a proof of concept up "tonight". Going to focus on just hiding for now and then the implementation of show/hide that is in a later commit.

Bingo! Teaser below. Screen caps taken on Nexus 7 running CyanogenMod 10.1 (Android 4.2)

Adapted the linked code and got the following. One more commit to integrate (audo/hide show on tap), some mild cleanup and the code will be ready. I'll be posting back with a feature branch, pull request, etc.

From what I've read the action bar cannot be hidden without low level root/rom trickery on 4.0+. The code used to generate the above screen caps is using the standard API methods.

On the plus side: I'm running my 1st build with the auto-hide / auto-un-hide changes.

That's just dimmed :(

Not dimmed "low profile mode". The best the NDK/SDK will allow (from what I can tell) without root trickery like HideBar is doing...

hopefully you devs can use the sample code provided by google to get to where is needed

Thanks for the code sample Smile

Current code: https://github.com/mcrosson/xbmc/tree/android-feature-auto-hide-nav-bar

Must build above with platform=android-14. Should run on 2.3 but I have not tested that part yet.

Working on getting the auto-hide feature nailed down from the original git sources posted. I'll also be taking a closer look at the code sample from @slhpss and doing a bit of a refactor along the way. Once everything is situated I'll be posting a PR, link to final branch, apk for testing, screencaps.
