How To Enable Onscreen Buttons On Any Android Phone

  


Its a short guide on how you can enable on-screen capacitive buttons on your phone.
You've seen these buttons on some high end phones like the Nexus 4 and 5 and many people are developing a liking for them.
Well, if you already have them, there is no need to go through this. 


Requirements:
-Rooted Android
-Android 4.0+
-Root Explorer (Any) e.g ES File Explorer
-12 grams of Brain :-D


Procedure:

-This guide involves editing the build.prop file at the root. So, navigate to the root using your favorite root explorer to …/system folder.
-You’ll find a file called build.prop.
-Make sure your explorer is configured to edit any text content at the root for example enable RW while granting ES File Explorer root access
-Open build.prop using a text editor  and scroll right at the end of the content
-Add the following line:

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

-Save the build.prop file and reboot your phone. You should have those on-screen buttons when the phone turns on
If in any case you want to remove them, go back to the build.prop file and delete the line you added. After rebooting the phone, they should be gone.

Enjoy
