Increasing Height of Navigation Bar and Status Bar in Android 6.0 AOSP

[Subrat Mohanty]

Hi,

Modifying the Height of Navigation Bar and Status Bar for Android 6.0 in AOSP

Modified the file frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/dimens.xml

     <!-- Height of the status bar -->

    <dimen name="status_bar_height">64dp</dimen>

    <!-- Height of the bottom navigation / system bar. -->

    <dimen name="navigation_bar_height">88dp</dimen>

    <!-- Height of the bottom navigation bar in portrait; often the same as @dimen/navigation_bar_height -->

    <dimen name="navigation_bar_height_landscape">88dp</dimen>

Did  $ make update-api and  mmm frameworks/base/ -B 

Modified the framework.jar and ext.jar on target device. But the changes are not happening. Is it correct ?

Or Need to do any changes in the frameworks/base/services/core/java/com/android/server/policy/PhoneWindowManager.java

Thanks,

Subrat

Modified the parameters of

 mTmpNavigationFrame.set(0, top, displayWidth, displayHeight - overscanBottom)  in PhoneWindowManager.java and changed the services.jar on target device. But the height is not chnaging. Please help me.

First, why are you modifying the core res values under frameworks/base/core/res/res when you should be using the device overlay facility? Regardless, are you sure that you're reflashing correctly?  Which components are you reflashing? IIRC, the mmm command won't actually rebuild the system.img. Try using m instead and reflash everything.

Its working fine. After re-flashing the complete image. Thanks.
