Xamarin MonoDroid Hide Status and NavigationBar

Question

In MonoDroid, how can i hide Navigation and Status Bar completely on a certain action?

So far i tried these lines of codes but without good results.

What i want is to prevent the user from switching out of the application.

Window.RequestWindowFeature(WindowFeatures.NoTitle);
Window.AddFlags(WindowManagerFlags.Fullscreen);
View.SystemUiVisibility = StatusBarVisibility.Hidden;

Thanks in advance!

I am able to hide the status bar but not the navigation bar. — SlashJ, May 12 '15 at 17:43

this.Window.ClearFlags(WindowManagerFlags.Fullscreen);  // Show the status bar
