Android: making a fullscreen application

by

You are getting this problem because the activity you are trying to apply the android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light.NoActionBar.Fullscreen"> to is extending ActionBarActivity which requires the AppCompat theme to be applied.

Extend your activity from Activity rather than from ActionBarActivity

You might have to change your Java class accordingly little bit.

If you want to remove status bar too then use this before setContentView(layout) in onCreateView method

        getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
        WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
