My app will not go into fullscreen mode...

I have everything entered correctly. I don't have "dialog" in the code like another user had. I am not sure what I need to do. I will past my manifest and styles xml below.

Manifest:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="dubbdroid.funfacts" >

<application
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
    <activity
        android:name="dubbdroid.funfacts.FunFactsActivity"
        android:label="@string/app_name" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
</application>

</manifest>

Styles:

<resources>

<!-- Base application theme. -->
<style name="AppTheme" parent="android:Theme.Holo.Light.NoActionBar">
    <!-- Customize your theme here. -->
</style>

</resources>

try this in your main activity (before setContentView)

requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);

Also make sure your styles.xml is in the correct folder, If you have values-v11 and values-v14 make sure you check the styles.xml file in those folders too.

You are the best!! Thank you Steve. I didn't change the other "styles.xml" files like you suggested in the second part of your answer. Thanks again!
