Well I think thats not possible, but you achieve something similar makin your activity FullScreen.

public class FullScreen extends Activity {
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

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

        setContentView(R.layout.main);
    }
}

this code is for hiding the status bar. I am looking for a way to show it and not let the user drag it down. – Daniel Benedykt Apr 08 '10 at 16:58
well in that case, mbaird has the reason. – Jorgesys Apr 08 '10 at 17:09

public void onWindowFocusChanged(boolean hasFocus) {
super.onWindowFocusChanged(hasFocus);


Log.d("Focus debug", "Focus changed !");

if(!hasFocus) {
Log.d("Focus debug", "Lost focus !");

Intent closeDialog = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CLOSE_SYSTEM_DIALOGS);
sendBroadcast(closeDialog);
}
}

its would be nice if you could explain what this code what doing as well :) – MZaragoza May 01 '17 at 18:37
Sure! So this method is a system method same as onPause, onStart etc.. This method checks If the app lost the focus, if yes it will send an intent to the system to close any dialog above your application :) – Ali Obeid May 01 '17 at 19:15
