Some time ago, both Chrome and Chrome Beta started going full-screen. That is, I no longer see my status bar. This is a deal breaker for me, as I can no longer see what time it is or if I have notifications.
I have browsed chrome://flags and didn't see anything related to this.
Is it possible to disable this full-screen mode?
Chrome versions:
- Chrome (30.0.1599.92)
- Chrome Beta (31.0.1650.32)
My phone:
- Galaxy Note 2
- Android 4.1.2
- Verizon
- no custom rom or root
Answer
I had the same problem, but I saw the exact moment it happened, a message appeared saying "switching to full screen mode". Then I couldn't switch it off. I deleted all data in Chrome, and the problem was fixed. There was no need to uninstall the app, just cleaned the data using the Android built-in Application Manager. It seems some website included code that caused this, and the Chrome for Android simply does not have the settings to revert this. Hope this helps.
