Hoping Sony could change the home keys into invisible while not in use in the next update.

I hope that sony could make the black keys below ( HOME KEYS ) be invisible while its not in use, example while playing games or watching movies..

Is there an option where i could not accidentally press the home button while im in the middle of something? and then suddenly what im playing or watching will be lost! then i'd start over again, that gets me irritated..

i hope theres a double tap option then the keys would be visible for use again.

i hope you understand what im trying to say? thanks a lot. ^__^

I agree, it will be nice if they will hide like on the Album app

@ninefive its not about fixing as thats the way its supposed to be, its more of an add-on

yes. hiding that requires rooting the phone. And let me clarify this again. ROOTING DOES NOT VOID YOUR WARANTY. Only unlocking our phone 'may' void that. Meaning that Sony has the right to accept or void the warranty of your phone when when you send in for service, after you unlocked your phone.

im scared to do things or so, i dont have a sony warranty i bought it here in the philippines, but they say that the unit is from hongkong..  i only have a service warranty but its brand new, i bought the phone with cheaper value coz it doesnt have a sony warranty.

there are a few apps in the Google Play for that. You can try "Soft Keys Ninja" Slightly_smiling_Face

Edit: Ignore that apps. It doesn't word like i thought it would.

even if something goes wrong, yo can always flash(repair)  the stock firmware using Sony pdate Service or PC Companion.
