[Request] Soft buttons as backlight notification indicator - Galaxy S III Mini Themes and Apps

Hey guys, I'm looking for a mod, app or something which can make the soft buttons light up when there is a notification like a missed call, unread message etc.
I would appreciate a lot any assistance.
Thanks in advance.

Until someone ports BLN in our kernel, no notifications light

There is NoLed app which can make pixels light in screen and there is nothing to light up the buttons?!
What's the deal with bln kernel? Needs root? It's a custom rom or what?

Nothing because an app that interacts with the screen doesn't rely on a kernel feature like BLN. The feature itself doesn't require root while the apps to manage it yes (BLN control for example) but this is not the problem. No custom rom or anything, just a kernel feature and since no kernel developer joined our community I guess no one here is able to unpack zImage, integrate BLN and repack the whole thing (custom kernel). However I'm confident it's only a matter of time
On Play Store there's an app that should make soft button light up with notifications, it's called Light Flow if I don't get wrong but AFAIK it doesn't work with our device

BLN kernel is now available!

Notification Light?

Is there any way to blink the lights between the keys when you get notifications?
yes im interested too with this ?
Sometimes i dont see the Notificationlight on the Side.
It would be very useful if there would be some apps to programm the NotificationLight on the Keyboard `?
Light Flow does the trick
Search for what is more simple. Are too many settings that you must make.
how does Light Flow work ?
Which Settings i should use / change ?

If I'm not wrong, DoomKernal has this feature built-in (v11 & v12). Checkout the thread in the development section to make sure (I'm not yet running v11 or v12 to confirm).

What does BLN and light flow light on our devices do?

I've been hearing so much about them but I installed them and they don't seem to do anything. I hear everyone talking about it.... could someone tell me what it does for OUR device?

BLN stands for Backlight Notifications, when you get a notification your LED lights on the front of your phone (i.e. menu, home, back, and search buttons) light up. As for "light flow light," idk..

...as long as the kernel youre running supports it
"Light flow" changes the color of your led light, it doesn't work on the sgs2 since we don't have an led.
If you have BLN Pro you can make your backlights blink whenever you have a text message or notification.

Light flow gives you the ability to have bln for all apps. It will not change the color but it will enable bln for whatever you have set in light flow. For example, stock messaging

SM-T705: No Notification LED?

I just want to confirm, No Notification LED for the SM-T705 right? It's a phone, very weird.

No.
but you can use app like "NoLed" from play, featuring a little notification icon on the screen, don't worry, it won't drain the battery, that's the advantage of amoled screen.
but the app still a little buggy.
I am also missing the notification LED. But probably could utilize the touch buttons. Any app to recommend?
Mine also doesn't has these notification features.Feel bad why samsung did this.Also my smart screen doesn't work.

Seems like that needs to be supported by a custom kernel. So we got to be patient it seems...I never gonna understand why Samsung isn't using the ****ing background light of the buttons for notifications (on devices w/o a dedicated LED)...I used that solution flawless on my aging S1 for 2 1/2 years now.
Is the issue kernel support, or is there truly no LED for notifications? There's two things to the right of the speaker, but maybe those are proximity sensors or something....

[Q] stock kernel with BLN

I was thinking if this device could have one too?? Wouldn't it b e great?
So i'm asking if anyone can do it, or at leat help me do so
And another question, will this feature lessen the stablity of the stock kernel??
Backlights for what?

BLN means Backlight Notification
this phone doesn't have Notification LED so this feature enables your phone to turn on the Backlight of 2 hardware keys so it kinda replaces LED
i saw it in pico section, wondered maybe theres one for this phone too!!??!
