Is there a way to SHOW the status bar?

A couple of years ago we could hide it:

Also.. how do I go about making the monkey app translucent so you can view what is under it.

<activity android:theme=\"@...;

I didn't think it would be as simple as replacing the line reading

android:theme=\"@..."

with the Translucent theme but at least I got the status bar back.

This one displays the status bar.

There isn't an easy way to make your monkey app translucent. You have to change the GameView Class. Here you can read how:
