Status and navigation bar showing when scrolling Recycler view in immersive mode

Question

I'm implementing immersive mode using this code:

        activity.getWindow().getDecorView().setSystemUiVisibility(
            View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE
                | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_HIDE_NAVIGATION
                | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN
                | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION
                | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN
                | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE
        );

But the problem is as I scroll the recycler view, the status and navigation bar are shown as an item view reaches the top. It's hard to explain but here's the gif:

Note that as an item view approaches the top, the status bar is shown (only the dark background is shown though). Note also the navigation bar as an item view's bottom reaches the boundary of the navigation bar (notice the gray background at the bottom).

This happens for every item in the recycler view which is really annoying.

It's missing you some UI options like immersive sticky. Here's my working ui options:

View decorView = getWindow().getDecorView();
int uiOptions =  View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE
        | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_HIDE_NAVIGATION
        | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN
        | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION
        | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN
        | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY;
decorView.setSystemUiVisibility(uiOptions);
