For some reason, when I ask such a question, people start minus the question, and not only on stackoverflow. Why do people minus this question? I can not find anything except this : no tutorials, no projects on github. Some say that this is impossible, although I have an application from HTC - “In the car”, it has its own status bar, there are also a lot of applications: super status bar, material status bar, omega statusbar - they all change the status bar to android 4.2 .2. So:

  1. Why do people minus the question? (I can explain this phenomenon only as the inability of me to google, although I have been doing this for the second month and so far have been unsuccessful.)

  2. Are there any tutorials or finished projects? I personally can not find anything, I tried all the wording of the question.

  • Is the StatusBar for you only for your application or do you want to replace the system one? - user194374

requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE); getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);

Now your application is full screen. Make a LinearLayout and place it at the very top of the layer - the custom status bar is ready.

It remains to “only” now to realize everything that is in the standard status bar itself.

    Answer your own question. You cannot create a custom status bar. This can be done only by certain developers (companies). But you can display information about the status of the network, wi-fi, battery and GPS.
