Android: Show/Hide Status bar when new Notification Arrived

Question

My application should run in full screen mode. And also i have to show notification bar when new items arrived to my app from our server. I write coding for notification in BroadcastReceiver class. i would like to make a decision in MainActivity like show the status bar only when new notification received otherwise hide the status bar. All are done when app is in foreground.

Coding for Notification:

Intent scheduledIntent = new Intent(context,Activity.class);

PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, scheduledIntent, 0);

                nm = (NotificationManager) context
                        .getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
                CharSequence from = "From address";
                CharSequence message = "New Orders received";
                Notification notif = new Notification(R.drawable.icon,"Hai", System.currentTimeMillis());
                notif.setLatestEventInfo(context, from, message, pendingIntent);
                notif.flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
                nm.notify(uniqueID, notif);
                notif.ledOnMS = 500;
                notif.ledOffMS = 500;

Through this code notifications are recieved. But the status bar is always visible. I need to hide when no notification received. Please provide me the right way to do this.

Thanks in advance,

In OnCreate() method you have to write this one:

 AppPreferences prefs = new AppPreferences(PresentChatActivity.this);
             boolean notify_checkbox = prefs.getNotifyState();

    Notification(message.getBody(),fromName, name);

Then, outside OnCreate(), write this function

   protected void Notification(String body, String fromName, String Notificationmsg) {

    NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager)getSystemService(NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);      

    String tickerText = getString(R.string.app_name, body);
    Notification notif = new Notification(R.drawable.ic_launcher, tickerText,
            System.currentTimeMillis());

    Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(this, PresentChatActivity.class);
    PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, notificationIntent, 0);


     notif.setLatestEventInfo(PresentChatActivity.this,Notificationmsg, message, pendingIntent);
     notif.setLatestEventInfo(getApplicationContext(), fromName, body,pendingIntent );  
     notificationManager.notify(10001, notif);
     }
