In this example, we are going to see how we can hide titlebar in android.
What is TitleBar ?
The titleBar is component which is available in our mobile phone's top corner where time and others things are going to display.
We use requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE) method of Activity class to hide the title.
It must be written before the setContentView method in class file.
The setFlags() method of Window class is used to display content in full screen mode.
We have to pass the WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN two times to hide titleBar in the setFlags method.
Lets see example below. ..
Example ::
activity_main.xml (Inside res/layout folder)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#EFEFEF"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:padding="10dp"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_marginTop="36dp"
android:padding="10dp"
android:text="Hide TitleBar Example"
android:textSize="25sp"
android:textStyle="bold|italic" />
</LinearLayout>

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

this.getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
}
