what do you think, sir? any other ways to fix it?[/QUOTE]<br />

[quote name="Thebear j koss" post=65494796]I saw you say flyme OS in a previous post, unfortunately not everyone knows what that is. but anyhow, most of what worked on 4.4 and down especially anything having to do with system ui or framework, will not work on 5.0 and above. there are so many changes with material design and. all taking over. gotta remember, every little pixel on your screen serves a purpose, so if you change something at the top, it is going to affect every pixel from that point on down. the framework is the base layer, it controls the theme, background, text, pop-ups, buttons, etc in all apps device wide. everything else is just a layer added on top of that framework base. changes were made in android that make it more difficult to change or override that base layer anymore, for instance see custom battery images and how much extra work needs to be done just to do that. anyhow, I'm not sure how to make that work as I have never seen nor done that. most people I know are doing the opposite of that to regain as much screen space as possible. if you know who has this or have a guide made by someone, you may want to ask there on if it is possible on 5.0 and above.[/QUOTE]<br />

It's theoretically possible, it just might take a lot of trail and error. If it can be done, that's great. If not...well, making the attempt's half the fun!!<br />

I'm not sure why your status bar is doing what it's doing, but I do have an idea. My ROM has two separate XML files for the status bar: "<b>keyguard_status_bar.xml</b>" for the lockscreen and "<b>status_bar.xml</b>" for the unlocked screen.<br />

It's worth looking in your APK to see if you have something similar.<br />

By the way, this business of regaining screen space is an odd one. My last phone was a Xperia Z and one of the first things I did was reduce the height of the nav bar. Now I have a Z3 Compact, with a smaller screen, and I'm perfectly happy with the nav bar size.<br />

In fact, I'm even considering making it <i>bigger</i> so I can put more softkeys in!

I don't get it either, people like the full immersive mode where statusbar and navbar hide and are only shown when gestured. I think it's tiresome on my nexus swiping to get navbar up whenever I go back or home, etc. I haven't seen a dual statusbar though, as he described and to me it's kind of odd, but others will like it. was just commenting more on how extending 1 aspect of your screen will affect everything else unless you do it correctly. Can't just change height or width and not expect it to just autocorrect itself throughout. anything can be done, and yes there is fun and pain in trying (see anyone who has bootlooped with no backup or a bad backup) but sometimes the headache isn't worth the payoff either. if he posted a link to a thread he was basing this on, it would be more useful and can see if it can be done easily on 5.0 or if this is a deprecated mod because it is too much work to port from 4.4 to 5.0
