android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar"

public static void CancelNotification(Context ctx, int notifyId) { String ns = Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE; NotificationManager nMgr = (NotificationManager) ctx.getSystemService(ns); nMgr.cancel(notifyId); }

thank you, but when is this method invoked? or i have to invoke it manually?? if so, in which part of the code? – Marco Espinal Sep 26 '12 at 06:20

This sounds like what you need. It invovles creating a transparent window overlapping the status bar and thereby intercepting all touch events to it.
You'll still keep the status bar, the user just won't be able to activate it.
