I suggest looking at the SystemUI process
(frameworks/base/packages/SystemUI), which is responsible for showing the
status bar and extending as desired.
First question you will need to answer is what layer your UI goes in to:
above everything including the lock screen, above the system bar /
notifications, above toasts, just above apps. It is likely you will need to
define a new private window type with its own layer (assigned in
PhoneWindowManager) to get it z-ordered where you want.

Hi ,
I want to keep my application ( Application A ) on the top always in
Android. Application A is not a full screen application, it is a
floating window or dialog theme based application. The Application A
can launch other application.\ from its own UI portion also other
applications can be launched from background from Home screen
shortcut / Application Launcher screen.
How can we do it?
Also the application which are in the background with Application A on
top should work normally. e.g. it can Launch other activities (of it
own own or some other application), dialog etc.
Second doubt/ requirement is - Activity Y is below Activity X,
Activity X is below Activity A (of Application A) . Activity X has a
close/exit button which would finish its own activity X. Now when that
button is pressed the activity get closed but leaves a black screen
below activity A.
Why does this happen (i think may be because it requires the Back
stack to be rearranged) and is their a turn around way of being able
to do this.
If any application in the background launches another activity/
application then also my application ( Application A ) should come at
the top of the launched activity/application.
Thanks ,
Ankit
