Question Removing/Hiding Percentage or entire Progress Bar

Hello

I am looking for a way to hide the percentage (of pages read) that is shown at the bottom left of my screen when I am reading a book. Or if necessary the entire progress bar with the percentage.

Right now my kindle is not jail broken and fully updated as far as FW is concerned (as far as I can tell). But I am willing to do whatever it takes in order to do this.

I can not seem to find a solution, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I have been requesting this from Amazon from day one, have not found a way to do this yet, here's hoping...

Have anyone found recently a way of removing the reading progress bar? I really wanted a way of hiding it, since I find it defeating in longer books.

Thanks for pointing at this solution. I have already installed it and I'm quite happy with the results (though not perfect, they're perfectly suitable as is).

Great work, btw.
