Disable on screen navigation bar in game

I don't know what settings I have done to my android phone, Sony Xperia Z3. Suddenly the on screen navigation bar is appearing in the game(highlighted in red). How do I turn it off? Previously it was not there and I can't find any setting in game or in phone settings to turn it off

If you are using the main account the immersive mode will be there as long as the game support this mode.

It was there in the the beginning until I rotate my Z3 screen. Any way to toggle the immersive mode?

Check the game settings, that's a developer issue not Sony, perhaps there was an update and they removed that option

Unfortunatly thats the bad thing about the navigation bottons on the screen. Like uliwooly said they must of been an update that removed the option to hide the Buttons. Pretty much 90% games will have thoes buttons not hidden while playing.  I know only Gameloft and ketchapp removing these buttons.

You can download GMD full screen immersive mode app by good mood droid. On the notification bar you will be able to choose what you want tp see, thw notification bar,  the homs keys or full screen which is the 3rd option.  Try it.

its sony's issue,  i had xperia z2 , now z5 and have the same issues after many updates (3,5 years total),  when play games navigation bar appears again and again even without touch the screen. 

its not game developers problem,  its appear in every game and its more often when charge the phone while playing. 

and i think its the same problem that makes multimedia (video,  music,  youtube etc.)  that pause them without reason. 

i really disappointed from sony,  i start with xperia 10, xp,  z2 and mow z5, many updates but no fixing bugs like these after so long time. 

ps: my screen is clear and i change glass every 3 months
