Yes, you can easily enable this:
Add this line in your build.prop:

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

And you will have virtual keys.

It works fine, thanks.
Just 2 problems:

The stock launcher looks like that: (look attacments)

And the return (or back) key doesnt work.

Then, is there any way to turn off the led of the touchkeys?

Sorry for all the questions and thanks for your help :)

That's because all Sense 6 ROMs are using a patched Launcher, so there is no gap if you are not using onscreen keys.
So, I don't know how to solve this issue and I also don't know, why back button isn't working :/

Use this App to turn of the led lights: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.sleepydragon.capbutnbrightness


You can also disable the M7 keys completely if you modifie the key_layout file.

Try using gravity box with xposed module. It has a softkey setting. I only used it briefly but I don't think I had the issue you had.

I Changed the LCD Density to 350 and your problem was resolved in my case.
But it Changed at Homescreen. Now its not fit in the lockstreen

Turns out there are two build.props. in my phone one that's In the sydtem folder and one in aroma. So I just added the line to both build.props and it worked out

If you have es file manager this is what I did to get it to work once you enter the systems folder in the root of the phone search for the build.prop if you are on insert coin 2.4.0 there should be two of them that show up I added the code to both build props then change their properties to rw- r--r-- and reboot and it worked but for insert coin the back button don't work so I switched back to arhd because of that and everything worked and also my extreme power saving mode doesn't activate.
