The Corona Simulator does not support Android status bars and wrongly returns the iPhone’s status bar height instead. Actually, the Corona Simulator returns the wrong status bar height for iOS retina devices too. It’s an outstanding bug that we’re looking into addressing now.
In the meantime, rest assured that [lua]display.getStatusBarHeight()[/lua] does return the correct height on an Android device. I’ve confirmed this for myself. [import]uid: 32256 topic_id: 33911 reply_id: 139781[/import]
