Hey guys, I highly admire the work that many developers do on this forum and I am so happy this community exists.
The Problem: My ZTE ZMAX capacitive keys have stopped functioning. I know this is a hardware issue because I flashed back to T-Mobile Stock 4.4.2 and still had the same issue. Currently, I am on Cyanogen 12.1 and I want to know how to enable the virtual keys
What I have available: I have SuperSU root and TWRP recovery, I can download anything extra in order to fix my issue.
What I've tried: I've tried this guide by MasterCheif87:
To enable the navigation bar on the stock rom just add this line to the end of /system/build.prop
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
This line is already present in the build.prop on the lollipop ROMs and just needs to be changed from
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
to
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
(I am not worried about disabling the capacitive buttons or the backlight yet)
What happens is that no matter what I do, the qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 always reverts back to 1 after I reboot...
I don't know what to do as of now.
Ive tried using the file manager in TWRP but it is useless because I can't reallyoverwrite and replace the build.prop file and then the only options if I'm able to do that is reboot or shut down, and both of the will reset the prop file.
I've also tried read and write using ES File manager and FX file manager but it still resets to 1 after rebooting
Can anyone help me on this? I feel I'm not doing the process right. Thanks so much for reading.
