So I have seen many people trying to edit the build.prop to get small arrow that makes navigation bar appear/disappear. Many people sometimes brick their phone in trying to do so. Some people don't root their phone to avoid voiding their warranty.

SO here is quick solution for the problem :D

1.Download the attached zip. and unzip it.

2.You will find a folder HuaweiBackup after unzipping.

3.Now put this folder in your sdcard or internal storage.

4.Open Huawei backup software.

5.Select restore from sd card.

6.U will see an option of restore having only settings.

7.Press it And U will see the small arrow on Navigation bar.

Please Tell If This Method Works. Hope it Helps.

Ignore my grammatical mistakes as English is not my first language.

Holy cow you're a freaking genius :D this works! finally i can have that nifty hide arrow :highfive:
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] GalaxySIIII:
I retreived hiding nav. completely different way ..

I had eu version then i updated to china version there was option to enable / disable and i have updated to 112 version and the arrow stayed there after flash .. even i dont have that option there in settings now to dis. or enab.

I still can hide or unhide bar :)

Excellent! Thanks very much - works for me. Needed to move the Huaweibackup folder out of the first Huaweibackup folder and drop it back into the root of the SD card, then the restore picked it up. Perfect :)

APK ?

Hello,

Before installing it, I just downloaded and extracted it.

I saw that apart from various empty folders, there is a HwAllBackupV6.2.65.apk file

Can I install it instead of using backup feature ?

btw, tx for this great feature !
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] :
Why should I fill my phone with apps and launchers, when I can edit builld.prop.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] zecampesien:

[MENTION=5384716]hannanzikrea[/MENTION]

After installing your mod I found myself wanting the old Navigation bar back.

Everything worked out perfectly and I am very thankful for your tutorial but I'd like to uninstall it.

Is there a way to undo the modification?

Greetings,

Leo
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] laverdadb:
Why do you want to do that? Its the best feature!
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Kuglikrug:
I feel like my phone is running a little laggy
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] laverdadb:
I think its not because of that. Update to B132.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] skyp6user:
How do i uninstall this?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] laverdadb:
Its easy. If you got older backup of your system (before you flashed this new backup) do with that. And voila magic comes.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] skyp6user:
thanks! but what if i didnt back up.. Like actually i didnt have any back up before i restore this file from sd.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] halman:
In this case just do the following using a file explorer like es explorer:

Edit build.prop inside system folder

Change

ro.config.hw_shownavisettings=true

to

ro.config.hw_shownavisettings=false

Save changes

Reboot your phone

The navi bar is now without the hide button..

If you ever feel nostalgic about that nifty arrow, simply reverse the above procedure;)

Important! You must be rooted!

Hide navbar "no root"

I only have this in Dutch. So i'll put it true google translate.

Method 1:

With this method, you need full access "root " your phone .

Go to the folder / system / using Root Explorer .

1 . Locate and open the file build.prop with an editor .

2 . Find the line ro.config.hw_shownavisettings = false and change the value from false to true .

3 . Save changes .

4. To perform. Reset

5 . Go to Settings - > Navigation Panel > Hide navigation bar and activates the control panel.

Method 2:

This method is suitable for people who can not or will not root . And still want to spend without " root" rights to the device changes.

The required software SQLite Database Editor . from app-store

1. Using the standard Huawei Application Backup backup . Check out the v for coding the backup . And then backup to SD card. ( Then you have to select what you can / want to backup ) . I always get the media files out.

2. Open with ES File Explorer / Root Explorer / Huawei File Manager , or another file manager , the folder on your SD card / HuaweiBackup / Backup Files / YYYY - MM - DD_CHCH - MM - SS / memory , where YYYY - MM - DD_CHCH - MM - SS corresponds with the date and time of the backup.

3. system setting.db Open file system using SQLite Database Editor . (when opening in ES explorer --> select other --> search the list for sqlite database editor (sometimes it wont open directly then try to open the file in sqlite database editor --> open from phone "on top") --> when its opent you see 3 variables. open the system variable --> then select *.

4. The table system variable hide_virtual_key look and change the value from 0 to 1 .

5. Visit Huawei Backup app and run Restore from SD card .

6. Reset. Be carried out.

When you return to the factory settings , and after the firmware upgrade . this operation will have to be reapplied.

You can edit the post to correct some bad english.

It Worked on Kitkat B510 but with a workaround

Hi, I used method 2 in kitkat official int B510 and it worked... :victory::victory::laugh:

But I had to add the line because it wasn't there...

I also had to copy the file to the PC and edit it with SQLite Database Browser LINK because it didn't work either wit the app you suggested.

If i knew this early I wouldn't have rooted with Chinesse VRoot... :crying:

Anyway Thanks!! And I hope it can work for you!
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] xbyt:
Didn't work for me, also on INT B510

The line is already there, I confirm it was edited successful but has no effect even after reboot.

I'm tempted to import the backup file used as a solution for previous firmwares (worked for me on B125), the one that says it is not compatible with the current version, but I'm afraid it can do more harm than good.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Nefarian5:

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] FSRider:
Works greatly on B125, very useful thanks :good:

However after reboot my P6, i've noticed it looks like a bit laggy, with fast animations.

So i've enabled developer options, and in fact after restoring the backup/trick for hide navbar, animations and transitions has been setted on 0.5x instead of 1x

I've choosen 1x and now it's smooth as before. Also i've made a backup of my system stock configuration before restore your backup/trick. Perfect :)

Native huawei backup app not working

Hello, I recently installed the Huawei 4.4 kit-kat software. I also noticed it did not have the option to hide the nav bar, so I decided to use this little trick. But it seems that after I installed KitKat on my phone, the native backup/restore application is not working for me anymore. It says that it's not up-to-date. Yet I have no idea how to update it, it has no option like that. I can't use this hide nav-bar option if I can't use the restore option. Anyone have some advice on how to circumvent this?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] tileeq:
Try finding the app in app manager and uninstalling the updates.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Filip.Boev:
There are no updates to remove from the app manager. The app just refuses to start due to a faulty version, I don't know why, but it does that. I don't really think there is another app that can handle what the Huawei one does, since the only way to back-up to the nav-bar option can only be done with the Huawei back-up method.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] tileeq:
If you want I can take the one I have from my phone and upload it so you can try to install, I know i had similar problem with the update program (on JB the version 7.*** was working fine and on KK it said unsupported version, so I just uninstalled the updates and it worked as version 6.***
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Filip.Boev:
I eventually gave up trying to solve the issue with it. So I just backed up my data and did an all-out factory reset. It's all good now, I installed the hide nav-bar option and restoring my data.

Still, thanks for your time and help, pozdrav.

i use a ascend p7 and restored this backup on it..no faults so far..

i have the little arrow back in the navbar and like it ;)

Hi, thanks for this. I've downloaded and placed on the SD card

But unfortunately it doesn't allow me to restore in the backup tool.

Please could you assist? I've tried all kinds of folders. Even tried making a backup and placing it in the same folder.

I have a H60-L04 without root

Seems that the backup version I have is 6.30.36.L whereas the one you included in the RAR is 6.2.65 - it won't let me install your version either.

I have also tried this without luck as I can't find the Navigation bar option.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] danielhep:
I have a Galaxy S III from AT&T. I got it unlocked and activated on T-Mobile last month.

Now, I went a month on AT&T roms, but recently I flashed SlimBean, which is dual carrier. My phone immediately connected to LTE! Never had I seen LTE on TM's network on this phone before, so I take that to mean I need to run T-Mobile ROMs to get LTE service.

So just now I tried to flash BeanStalk for d2tmo, but it won't let me install it because, of course, it's not made for this phone. From what I have read, though, it should work fine on my phone. How do I override this failsafe so I can run T-Mobile roms on my AT&T gs3?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Da Kine:
"You do this with 7-Zip/WinRAR

Note: DO NOT EXTRACT ROM!

Open the zip file, do not extract, go to:

/META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script

1)Open updater-script with a script editor such as notepad/notepad++ (makes things 10x easier), or gedit if you use linux

2)Delete the first line of code (all the way up to the first semicolon you see) and delete the first semi-colon as well

Do not go past the first semiclon when deleteing and DO NOT forget to delete the first semicolon."
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Da Kine:
You'll want to delete the highlighted text in the updater-script, then save it. You shouldn't run into anymore problems or errors when flashing the ROM.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
And the Rom won't give you LTE. Most T999 roms will show 4g, but look in settings for your true connection. You probably had it all along.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] danielhep:
Well I had LTE / GSM / WCDMA selected in the settings on CyanogenMod for the I747 and it wasn't connecting to LTE. Only HSPA+. So either it's the ROM, or T-Mobile launched their LTE network here at the same time I flashed SlimBean.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mrlamo:
I'm running stock i747 and I get Lte all over Chicagoland. I'm rooted now, but I got it before I rooted too. I'm using the stock 4.1.1 that came with the phone, picked it up for $180 a few days ago...Wow this thing is awesome.

Thinking about going with Dandroid tomorrow...still deciding att or T-Mobile version.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] danielhep:
What are your APN settings?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mrlamo:
Never changed any settings, except picking T-Mobile when it first booted with the T-Mobile SIM....I'll have to take a look at them later.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] danielhep:
Please do let me know! When I was running the AT&T roms, I had "Simple Mobile", "StraightTalk", and "T-Mobile". I tested and all of them worked, but just connected to HSPA+.

Now that I've installed a T-Mobile rom I am also getting "Solavei" and "T-Mobile LTE." When I select T-Mobile LTE, my phone connects to the LTE network. When I have the regular T-Mobile option selected it doesn't connect to data at all.

EDIT: I am testing again, and I actually can connect to HSPA+ on the regular T-Mobile APN. Let me walk around and see if I can make it connect to LTE. Then I'm going to flash an AT&T rom and try to get it to connect to the LTE network by manually adding the APN. I'll let you know how it goes.

Can the APNs determine what type of network you connect to?

I'm just curious what APN settings you're using to connect to LTE on the AT&T rom.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] danielhep:
Okay, here's another update as the result of some testing with my T-Mobile rom:

When I switch to the "T-Mobile US" (no LTE) APN, I noticed that my data cut in and out sort of randomly. I speculate that the reason for this is because it was trying to connect to the LTE network but couldn't get data on it because my APN was set incorrectly. This is what confused be before. I switched the data mode to GSM / WCDMA preferred and it immediately connected to data, and was consistent.

So I think if I just add the T-Mobile US LTE APN to an AT&T rom, it should connect to LTE properly?

A long time ago when I was just on the T-Mobile US APN on an AT&T rom, it was doing the same thing with being inconsistent with the data connection until I disabled LTE so it stopped trying to connect. I'll take the fact that it tried to connect but couldn't as enough evidence that it knows how, it just needs the APN.

Yay figuring things out! Sorry if my words are confusing or I maybe I should have made a new thread for this. I'm new here, and I'm not sure how this kind of things work.

Thanks for the help in figuring that out!

Sorry about the sidetrack, I'll work on getting 4.3 next, and let you know how that goes.
