im running W10M on my lumia 535 build: 14295

when i play GT Racing (actually any game) the at the bottom where the home button is is black even after i retract the home button and its a big deal because the gas pedal is there can someone tell me is there a way to fix it or is microsoft actually planing to fix it?
PS. This has been happening to me scene build 10586.

Have you checked your display settings for scaling?

Presuming you have it -> All Settings -> System -> Display -> size of text, apps and items on display.

Scrolling left will reduce it by that specified %, I'm not sure if you can adjust it incrementally on the 535 as on my 920 (.164) it's in 25% increments with 175% being the lowest and 225% the max.

Also make sure you give feedback via the feedback app.

Nope, tried but did not work. The max scaling for me is 150% witch is recommended and min is 125% tried switching and still a pice of screen is missing

I presume a soft reboot or app reinstall didn't help?

No, it did not

Not sure what else to suggest, did you do a hard reset at any point upgrading through the insider builds?

yes i did, looks like w10m is only optimized for the new phones that come with windows 10 or something
