Yeah not working for me yet either - there seems to be more variable(s) at play here or something. Ugh - I just want to hide the thing!

Also - anyone have any luck getting something like this applied to the InAppBrowser webview? Seems like that status bar is obeying a different set of rules. At first stab these snippets don't seem to work on the CDVInAppBrowser.m file.
