Android - How to unhide soft buttons after programatically hiding them?

Some android phones have soft buttons (back, home, menu). I manage to hide them using setSystemUiVisibility as described here.

However, how to make the softbuttons visible pragmatically?

You can use setSystemUiVisibility()

Request that the visibility of the status bar or other screen/window decorations be changed.

SAMPLE CODE

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {



    TextView tvTextView;



    @Override

    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);



        getWindow().getDecorView().setSystemUiVisibility(

                View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE

                        | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_HIDE_NAVIGATION

                        | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN

                        | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION

                        | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN

                        | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY);



        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);



        tvTextView=findViewById(R.id.tvTextView);

        tvTextView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override

            public void onClick(View view) {

                getWindow().getDecorView().setSystemUiVisibility(View.VISIBLE);

            }

        });



    }

Setting View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_VISIBLE worked for me.

getWindow().getDecorView().setSystemUiVisibility(View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_VISIBLE);
