Just wondering, but is there any way to increase the pulsing speed of the trackpad LED?
A lot of people have suggested LedMe Know but it doesn't have support for Google Voice (which I use for sms) and it flashes the trackpad, rather than pulses.
I've also tried Light Flow and although it pulses the trackpad and supports Voice, it doesn't change the speed of the pulse
Any suggestions?
Have you tried playing with the custom timing settings in Led me know?
If gvoice isn't supported, then perhaps it wont work....sry if it doesn't.
Well, like I said up top, it only flashes the led, instead of the pulses, regardless of any speed settings.
Plus no Google Voice in LedMe Know. Light Flow does support it (so its definately possible ), but it does not alter the pulse frequency so it doesn't add anything that stock didn't already do.

Maybe you could contact the app developers and get them to add the feature(s)?
Some can be surprisingly responsive.
Good suggestion...but not quite the solution I'm looking for since LedMe flashes rather than pulses and I'd prefer if I didn't have to keep an app in memory just to change the frequency of a stock feature :/
Maybe there's a way to modify the lights.vision.so or something?
EDIT: I doubt the developer would try his hand at pulsing rather than flashing since it seems I'm just a minority who prefers the trackpad led rather than the speaker led. Also this seems like a device specific feature and the dev says in the app description: "only available at the moment for htc desire 2.2" so I doubt he has a DZ to test on... I found
EDIT2: I found exactly what I was looking for (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5609688&postcount=25) but sadly its only for Nexus One. I'm messaging the developer to see if maybe he'd port it over...

Yeah I dont know much about editing those files, but some app devs are helpful. It might actually just be a quick edit for them to gain compatibility with GVoice.
I only use LED me know to flash my trackpad light really fast, upon arrival of sms' through tmobile carrier/handcent tho.
I hope you figure something out. I would like like it to pulse fast rather then just blink.

Switch to an MIUI rom. It has the feature built in.
I appreciate pulsing the trackpad LED as well. However it's too slow a pulse at default speed, to be able to quickly peek at your phone and be able to tell if you have a message or not.
xREVOx: What exactly is this feature called? I want to look around and see if it will be included in the net CyanogenMod version.

I'm not using the MIUI rom right now, but it was called either Pulse Frequency or Pulse Delay. Default is 9 seconds. You can change it to as little as a 1 second delay.
I might have to flash it just to check it out and see how it works.
Currently I have LED me know flash my trackpad at 100 milisec. on and 100 milisec. off. Flashes fast and I notice it right away when checking for messages.
I just rather have the pulsing close to that speed.
Well I guess its nice to know that there's an actual solution... I wonder how hard it is to extract from miui rom?
I was looking around for the source of miui, but apparently its not released by their dev team...?

You could try just flashing the exact file that controls it to your phone, from the MIUI rom... not sure exactly what it is though.

I believe its in Settings? I saw a video of MIUI running on a G2 and Trackpad Settings was in the Settings menu...not sure if it contains the pulse frequency but meh. If it is, I don't think it'll be too smart to flash it but idk.

Is there a kernel available with BLN support?
I really mis a notification led on my galaxy w, so I only see missed calls when I unlock the phone. (which often is way too late).
I guess many of you suffer from the same problems.
Apparantly, the menu and back softkeys can be used as notification led is BackLightNotifications are enabled in the kernel. It exists already for galaxy sII.
Any plans of seeing this in an upcoming kernel?
thanks
Such kernel was not made yet for our phone. And one more thing you don't make threads with question in the developer section. Questions goes under General section!
ok, will do.
thanks for the advice

I am also interested to use these keys light as notification indicator for miss call and sms.
The other option is to use NoLed app from market, but it used main display to notify the user which is not good.
Yeah, I saw that one too, but that will eat battery...

Hi folks
I'm looking for an backlight notification app for our SGW.
There is BLN Control which needs an BLN-kernel/mod but I don't want to flash (right now). There also is NoLED which drains somehow battery because initially it is for amoled devices which do not need backlid screen when displaying icons like LCD does. Is there something like "LG Touch Notifications"? I found this for my wifes optimus black and it is awesome. It gives all I need. You can set the frequency and fade for the touch key LED. Set how long and when to blink (you can define sleeping hours ). It also sets repeating sound and vibration.
Do you know something similar or is it possible to port the LG thing to SGW?
Thanks in advance

This is a great thing! Now if some one could actually port it for our device...

BLN
Hi,
I found that it works with some Samsung devices: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=823922
The corresponding file is in /system/hw/ on my device (original rom) it's called lights.msm7k.so
I don't know how to programm, but it should be possible to get the code from the Samsung i9000 and port it to our file.
Hi
So it should work. But this ist for original BLN. Maybe someone could integrate it to our SGW w/o kernel flash.
This almost works...

What do you mean by "almost works"?

Well you seem to have to disable native alerts for sms, which is no good really,
@phonesgw
Do you think it works without special kernel? As the link you are referring is talking of BLN-Kernel
@tmcthree
Did this tool work for you? This means you use the flash light for notification? But therefore you have to place the phone upside down on the table to see it flashing.
I've got no idea of programming android. What is the difficulty of controlling the LED of the smartbuttons? Why do I need special kernel?

I Am allso searching for a application that lets the Home-Key blink when there is a missed call.. SMS or Email. (My girlfriend has the SGW)
Regarding the LG app.. i used it to... but after 2.3.4 ... the app said it needs Root access to work.
Sent from my LG-P970 using XDA
We are still running our LG Optimus Black on 2.2.2. As I read of several disadvantages of updating to 2.3.4 I decided not to do that (until now ;-) ). Are you sure you need root? Why that?
I wrote Martin Börjesson, the developer of LG LED Touch Notification. His app is open source and he is willing to help with porting it to other devices. So what we need is someone who knows what to do.
holydiver
So far no one interested in notification by soft key?
Anyone who can shortly explain what to do and how to learn?
holydiver
so far now people interest with this ?????
any developer willing to help...............?????
It appears Samsung has removed the ability to adjust the text size in the stock email app. This was available in the Note email app. I know I can change the system font size but everything else is good. Anyone have a suggestion other than going to a 3rd party app.
TIA.
Why not try replacing the email app with the one from the Note and see what happens?

I did this, but unfortunately our screen resolution is too high - maybe I mean pixels per inch (ppi)...
the note and the SII were 160ppi, and I think this one is much higher. The Note and SII (ICS) email apps are too small for the SIII.
If someone can find a way to fix that it will be perfect!

Most likely going to end up the same way as other GS2s. I don't think any of the older email apps from Sammy will work because of the ppi. We will most likely have to wait till a dev is able to fix (if it is even possible), or Sammy keeps reading how much people hate this email app and they fix it.
Let me know if it works though!

I surrender SR apps didn't help. I guess I am reloading Enhanced Email.
I like to use K9. Started using it with my Captivate when I first got it, and have stuck with it since. Handles everything I've thrown at it

Hi all.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 for few days, and i installed a JB rom on it, and there are some things i really love !
So my questions are these :
-Is there any mod, or anything to activate like on the s2/3 when you are in the messaging app, you just put your phone to your ear, and it call the contact that you are texting with ?
-Is there anyway to get the samsung's keyboard on the galaxy nexus ?
-Maybe is there any possibility to get the lockscreen ?
-And is there any mod or something to get the messaging app ?
My device is the GSM Galaxy Nexus (Maguro), running Cataclysm ROM (4.3)
I can change my rom to get these mods.
Thanks four your replys guys, and i hope you understand my english.
Someone please ?

If you have the S2 you are in the wrong section. This section is for the Galaxy Nexus, although I guess my answers will still work for you.

There is a direct call feature in some of the modded mms apps. Perhaps some market apps have this feature as well.

Searching for these would be your best bet. If you can't find them, they likely haven't been ported. Good chance the lockscreen is a no. There may be alternatives on the market to get the features you want.

So you have an S2 and a Gnex?
So basically you want some Touchwiz on your Pure Google experience...
-No, that's a Touchwiz feature.
-I believe you can sideload the Samsung keyboard apk to your Gnex and install it.
-No, that is also a Touchwiz feature and probably hard as hell to get working/ported.
-Possibly if you sideload the Messaging apk file.

Thanks for your reply, i tried the apk's and it didn't work.
I wanted the most the direct call feature, because we have '' smartphones '' but actually they are pretty dumb. And this feature is a smart feature imo.
