I'm glad it did. If you don't like Led on Hardware Button being ON since you now have onscreen buttons especially when in the dark you can as well just disable it using this registry path.

Click On "REGISTRY BROWSER"
Select "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE"
Select "SOFTWARE"
Select "OEM"
Select "Nokia"
Select "Display"
Select "ColorAndLight"
Select "UserSettingKeyLightsEnabled"

Under the "Registry Value Data" Change from "1" to "0" then click "Write". Restart your phone for it to take effect ;)

If it's still not showing up follow this carefully. Once you open the app. Click on the hamburger menu at the top left corner and select "Interop Unlock". Turn ON "Restore NDTKSvc" then restart your device. Then go back to the "Interop Unlock" section again and turn ON "Interop/Cap Unlock" and also turn ON "New Capability Engine Unlock"

Then go back to the main menu and follow the process carefully like I said.
Click On "REGISTRY BROWSER"
Select "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE"
Select "SOFTWARE"
Select "Microsoft"
Select "Shell"
Select "NavigationBar"

Once you've gotten to this registry path do this.
Click on "..." by your extreme right and select "Addvalue" then do this

In the *Registry Type* section change it to "Integer"
In the *Registry Value Name* type "SoftwareModeEnabled"
In the *Registry Value Data* type "1"
Then finally click on "Write"

Once you're done restart your phone and it'll definitely work.

Anyone having issue enabling onscreen buttons should to this ;)

The workaround above made my Nokia 830 usable again :)

I created this account just to thank you because now I can go back to using a phone that I love but that was completely unusable.
Thank you!

Sorry guys...been a little busy :p
Once you've successfully installed interop tools open the app and follow this registry path carefully.
Click On "REGISTRY BROWSER"
Select "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE"
Select "SOFTWARE"
Select "Microsoft"
Select "Shell"
Select "NavigationBar"

Once you've gotten to this registry path do this.
Click on "..." by your extreme right and select "Addvalue" then do this

In the *Registry Type* section change it to "Integer"
In the *Registry Value Name* type "SoftwareModeEnabled"
In the *Registry Value Data* type "1"
Then finally click on "Write"

Once you're done restart your phone and watch the magic happens :D

Hi Khay_Breezy

Thanks for the clear instructions. The fix worked great. I've got my L830 back! Outstanding. Be assured your halo is shining brightly!

Cheers
