Re-enable status bar

I'm using this code to hide the top status bar

public static void removeNotificationBar(Activity activity) {
    if (activity != null) {
        activity.getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
    }
}

But it seems I need to enable it back on in some cases in my activity and I am unable ti figure out what flags to pass to the window to re-enable the status bar.

Any ideas?

You have two options to solve your problem:

the first one: is to clear the flag, as described in this answer you can use:

activity.getWindow().clearFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);

the second one: as this flag is in the activity scope, you can rerun the activity without any animation so that the user won't be able to figure out that the activity is re-initiated:

Intent intent = getIntent();
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_ANIMATION);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
activity.startActivity(intent);
finish();
activity.overridePendingTransition(0, 0); // to restart the activity with No Animation
