How to remove the softkey on the screen? - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had read that having the root there was a way to make invisible buttons mangiaschermo ... My problem is for gaming, although I do not use the phone to play every now and then maybe play some games or do I try a few friends it seems really ridiculous to see those buttons that display even eat because it's not that reduce the resolution but cover their a part of the display ... For example, if there is a small detail to the right of the screen will be covered by the keys and you will not see;
Solution?? thanks
P.s Sorry for english but I use google translate to hurry!

wrong section. should be in Q&A

GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys
you can get it directly on the Google Play Store
obviously you have to root your smartphone

There are several ways. I use cm10 which has expanded desktop option. Exposed framework can be used or edit build prop. Check the link

I am using GMD auto hide keys + LMT for gesture

Very Very good! Thanks Gays
Sorry for section... Thought I was thinking , this app eat much battery... or no?
EDIT:
I Use it but i don't like , if you don't buy premium version there is a red icon under display and the app is always open in the notification! Do you know any other better app with the gesture?

The best of the best "GMD GESTURE CONTROL " Is wonderfull, guys

use FullScreen Toggle and LMT, be sure your phone is rooted

First instal LMT Launcher (free) and then go to system/build.prop open and add qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 save and reboot. I used it all the time since premiere.

Any chance on Multitasking Gestures?

I would like to say "Good-bye" to stupid system bar,get real full screen for apps.
But we use backward key often.
Is there any app can use gestures to control backward?or exit apps just like IOS.
You can use Button Savior to duplicate some of the system bar buttons on a small dock.
I made an invisible back button, works nicely aside for occasionally covering some element of an interface. If that's a problem you can also set it to pop up with a swipe from the side of the screen.
I use SwipePad a lot too, a free app switcher, can also be set up to launch ADW with the effect of a home button.
What I like most is that after launching an app with it the Back button will bring you to whatever app you were using before instead that to the home screen.
What I'm missing now is some widget to keep track of notifications when the status bar is hidden, any suggestions?

Thanks,Button Savior works fine for me.
You can try type "notifications" on market search.
I am tring Iphone notifications lite now,Good luck~
I know I'm a bit late on this, but I'd like to throw GMD gesture control in as a suggestion. I've been using it for hiding and showing the statusbar and for the back button. It works perfectly and lets you define your own gestures as well.
+1 for GMD its absolutely awesome

I use gesturecontrol pro to hide status bar, switch apps, and run my own custom apps/actions. I would recommend it. Worth the price and supports an xda member!
Definitely GMD, bought it a while ago, it's one of the apps that changed the way you use the 7.7 fundamentally...
+1 GMD. It's perfect. No bar + gesture. It works perfectly..

GMD Status Bar fix for ICS
Old message: You have to install BusyBox from market (look for some BusyBox installer) if StatusBar hiding is not working after upgrade to ICS. I'm working on solution that would not require BusyBox.
Update: after 2.5.5 no need to install busybox.

I find that the wallpaper disappears still with the upgrade though after I reload home a few times it will randomly return

the wallpaper disappering is a known bug and the developer can't seem to get around it - when GMD ends the statusbar app it kills the wallpaper app with it. Try live wallpapers.
Other that this, GMD is absolutely awesome.
Hello friends.
GMD. I have been using GMD since day one. Love it but now I have an issue.
Hide bar works. A bit slow. I'm using live wallpapers.
Anyways...
The back button doesn't work at all.
The message "back" shows.
Then "GMD Gesture Control has been granted Superuser permissions"
Then....nothing.
Nothing....
Anyone?
Home works too.
I have ICS. I have root. Odin: Cwm+root.zip. Not mobile odin. Couldn't get it to work at that time.

Are you using SuperSU as root binary? If its Superuser, please install SuperSU from market, start it, update binary. Start GMD grant permission. Superuser on ICS is hit or miss experience. While most common things work, there are some not so commonly used functions that don't work.

Thank you again.

How to hide softkey?

So guy I wanna know if I wanna hide softkey when I play a game it inpossible? Thxx
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
it is possible but u will lose quick access.
u must w8 for pro developers to make a firmware/rom with active soft-key or sth like this.
GMD Gesture control Pro works well. It will hide Status and Nav bar when you activate the function, that gives you full 5 inches access for everything you do.
P.S. require rooted

gmd full screen autohide softkeys immersive mode

Hi guys...since xperia z3c cant be rooted wirhout unlocking bootloader...its navigation bar can not be minimized..one of my xda bro told to use auto hide navigation bar for z3c..kindly tell me anybody have used gmd auto hide immersive mode in xperia z3c.i dnt have z3c..kindly tell me after using that either it works on z3c without root or not..i,ll buy this phone if it works..its very important for me to know this works on z3c without root???

It works fine but the usual stuff about keyboard and what not. I could see it being quite good in pro mode if you select apps that don't really require a keyboard only. I don't think it's worth using for me as I use my phone to write things, so having to many all make the keyboard appear is not worth the effort. Works fine though

I didnt get your point bro..keyboard???
I installed on one of my frends xperia z3...it freezes after some time and then no buttons are available.sometimes buttons are available but didnt work.ultimately I have to reboot the device..any issues with anyone??
I use "all in one gestures" to hide the nav bar. I've set it up like this: swipe up from the bottom right or left corner enables/disables immersive mode. That is the most efficient way to quickly hide the nav bar or bring it back when you need the keyboard that I've found. Does not require root!
It's also possible to use other gestures of course. Does not replace GMD gesture control (which requires root), but it's something!

Yes. You select gesture and set it to activate Fullscreen. When you perform the gesture you enter immersive mode. It's nice because you can quickly disable it when you need the keyboard.

[Q] Annoying soft touch keys.....

As the title suggests, the soft touch keys can be annoying sometimes, especially while playing games they use the screen and tapping them by mistake is very often. So, my request to the developer community is that can you make a mod/kernel so that games can use the full screen and the soft touch keys hide automatically like in some games they do.
(I'm not sure whether it was right to make a whole new thread about a not so major problem. If it is not appropriate, please inform me)

2 words : Immersive mode
You can Google to learn what it is and how to force an app to run in immersive mode...
And that's the easiest way instead of making a new kernel /rom and what not
It's easy to download gmd full screen immersive mode app on play store and it's free or if you can afford you also can buy gems auto hide soft keys
I have tried the app before. It's quite good. But we need to manually set it everytime before use, anyways thanks for replying.

It's got per app configuration so if you set it once and u can use that app in full screen mode
I can't see the option......

I don't use it but it's written in app description look in play store
Maybe Im using an outdated version.........will update and check it out.....
Also, the GMD app is filled with bugs like not responding, wallpaper changes on its own..not a good app....

That's what I told before. It is full of bugs( atleast on cyanogenmod 12.1)..

hide nav bar

I was wondering if any one knew how to hide the nav bar when the keyboard was open. Where it really bothers me the most is when I'm texting.

You can use Systemui tuner app, from playstore, there is an option "inmersive mode", you choose navigation bar, and the nav bar will ALWAYS hide, even in home screen, but for this app to work, you need to grant permissions with ADB, the app itself guides you for doing it, look at this:

That doesn't work. It still shows when the keyboard is open
Well, I use AI type keyboard, the nav bar appears below the keyboard, and the back arrow in nav bar changes to a down arrow to hide the keyboard, I find this as a good implementation, the nav bar does not overlay the keyboard, or you just donot want to see it?

I just now spoke with Samsung about this. Apparently, they've heard about this issue and will address it in a future update.

It's a good practice to read the description, not just download stuff. So you don't have to ask unnecessary questions.
