Android Lights out mode not working

I just tried it with the 2 lines of code shown here:

Where is API call to do "lights out mode" in honeycomb?

View v = findViewById(R.id.view_id);
v.setSystemUiVisibility(View.STATUS_BAR_HIDDEN);

And it has no effect for me.

Tried it with several views of my layout. Any Idea what I am doing wrong here? Are there any conditions I have to meet to get the effect I want?

Now I had time to dig a bit deeper and found the problem - I put it here so others can learn from my mistake - the problem was that android:targetSdkVersion was missing in the manifest - I had the right target in project.properties, but that was not enough - with a android:targetSdkVersion="15" lights out works like a charm.
