App to keep LED notification going for more than 5 minutes?

Hi,
Is there an app (working with the Sensation) that can make the LED notification light flash continually until you actually open the new message or am I stuck having to bring the phone out of sleep incessantly to check if anything new has come in?

Surely such an app would just eat battery up for no reason.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

I've been having a look at this myself,
(i am a noob when it comes to devolping apps)
but i was one first to get desire and there
was a command that you can run (without root)
to get the led to flash different colours length etc..
Tried this on the sensation and just get a file cannot be found.
(if you want to now the command then pm me or
il post it up not that it be much help)
so basically this means all existing apps with run on this old
command, so a new one will be needed when somebody figures
out the file name for the sensation led - then you can
just push a number to it using the echo command and itl work.
put into a java script and your done

wait so the notification light only lasts for 5 minutes? wtf?

What?? Is this true???

You know, I never noticed that since it's my second line. Interesting. Maybe part the reason the standby time is so good on this phone. (really reaching)
I did leave my phone alone for a few hours and no flashing led for my peep mentions.

any update on this?
I just got the phone and the lack of a notification sound or light is a big negative for me.

I would love to see the app NoLED work for the Sen4G which would be a perfect fix for this issue

The HTC Sensation does have notification by sound, LED and Vibration, look closer at your settings check out the settings in HTC Hub

The problem I'm having with NoLED is that I also use Handcent SMS and when you clear the NoLED notification screen it also closes the sms popup window. It's kind of annoying. A fix around that issue is the problem I'm having.

Just installed SMS Popup & it seems to have an option to repeat your reminder & can set an interval. It even turns on the screen which I missed!!!
Testing now.

Edit: yep, works perfectly. Only downside is you lose the awesome lockscreen feature of showing the envelope & text

Any update or workaround?

That's only for SMS, which I literally never use. (I use Google Voice for 100% of my texting.)

Haha yes! And I've successfully converted a few others as well. I mainly use it because I can text via my work PC or my home PC. Texting with a full keyboard = a thousand times better
Plus saving on text messaging costs, and ease of porting number over yadda yadda
Anyway, I've been testing out NoLED today and it's a nice app but I don't like that it turns the entire screen on. Massive battery loss there.
Is there a better way?

from what I've read NoLED was made with an AMOLED screen in mind where black doesn't drain the battery because those LEDs are actually off

I've been using NoLED with Handcent. There is an option in NoLED that is Handcent specific that seems to keep the sms popup under the NoLED notification. Just unlock NoLED with the volume rocker and the popup window will remain open. Only downside is when the phone is on vibrate you will be constantly taking the phone out of vibrate mode to unlock NoLED to view sms popups. At that point you'd have to use the home or back key to unluck NoLED but it will dismiss the sms popup. So NoLED is ALMOST a nice fix. Gonna use it for now until something better comes along.

After going through all the app's options and menus extensively, I now have it set to disable the screen via the proximity sensor (ie if in my pocket etc).
Now I'm trying to use the Blink feature so if my phone is on a table or somewhere exposed, the screen isn't 100% on. Rather, it turns off/on periodically.
However, it seems the Blink feature doesn't work on the Sensation? When I get a notification, the screen never turns on.
If I disable blink, it works again right away (but then the screen is on 100% of the time when not in my pocket).
Anyone else experienced this?

Just switched from Blackberry - Please help me to like WP7

Earlier this week, I received a HD7S on non-Mango to replace my Blackberry Torch.
While I like the bigger, better screen of the HD7S and the variety of WP apps (compared to RIM's selection at least), I am not sure, if the WP7 is really suitable for me (yet).
My intention is to use that phone mainly for business purposes.
Perhaps, someone can give me some input on the following items:
How to enable LED notification (email received, etc.)
How to access certain functions quickly rather than having to unlock the phone, finding the setting, etc etc etc (example: mute/unmute, change phone to silent, etc.)
How to increase time-out past 5 minutes max (very cumbersome/dangerous when on call in the car and having to mute/unmute)
Can I setup custom tiles (to bundle certain apps into one tile)?
How to customize notifications per email account (individual ring tone and vibrate)
How to reassign buttons to other functions
Please, I am not a Blackberry fan boy but I really want to like WP7 as I, frankly, have no other choice as this phone has been given to me by my employer.
Any input will be highly appreciated.
BTW: I have tried that force-Mango update for hours and countless times without any luck yet; maybe some of the points above will remedy with Mango?
Thank you!

1. I'm not sure about the HD7S, but the Samsung Focus doesn't have a LED. If the HD7S does, it might be hackable but I can't provide any information about that.
2. There currently isn't any way to change your phone to silent silent, but you can use the volume down button to change your phone to vibrate. I'm also not sure what "other" settings you are talking about.
3. I assume you're talking about the screen, there is probably a registry hack somewhere. A quick search came up with this.
4. I remember reading somewhere about folders, but I can't seem to find it at this moment. I'm also not sure if it would bundle all the live tiles into one.
5. Also not possible on the Focus as of right now.
Sorry I couldn't be much of help, I hope this steers you in the right direction and I hope you fall in love with your new Windows Phone!

There is a LED, which turns red once the battery needs to be charged. I would assume that this LED could be used for other purposes?

My HTC Mozart has a green/red LED, and with Mango it flashes green when you have a missed call or SMS message. As far as I know it doesn't work with other alerts such as toasts; definietly doesn't do anything for new emails.

You can pin the settings tile to the homescreen. Mute can be toggled by pressing either volume rocker, then in the top menu touch the corner that says "ring and vibrate". It'll then become "vibrate" and the icon will change, indicating the phone is on silent.

NowNotifier development

Hello, I'm the developer for the NowNotifier application and decided that the comments in the Samsung store is a bad place for me to keep track of feedback, so decided to start this thread.
Feedback is always welcomed.

Todo:
* Fix for reading messages.
* Option to hide app after action DONE
* No notifications on sleep mode
* Exit to home / watch screen

Hi,
Nice to see you here. Hopefully we will see a new release with enhancement and bug fixes soon

This may be some sort of error on my part, so please bear with me. My only complaint is when using your app the Now Notifier screen seems to stick around. I do have my watch set to wake up to last screen used as that is the only way the Endomondo app is useful when running. Is there a way to turn this off.

If you have autohide on, and don't touch the notification, it should hide automatically. If you touch it, you should swipe up to down past the green screen to dismiss the application.

Got it...thanks. Would it be possible in a future update to allow for the autohide timeout to be changed by the user to something shorter?
Edit: Just received an email through Nine (me email app on my phone). I got the notification through NN, replied to it with NN and the NN screen stayed on the screen until I made it go away. This is what I meant earlier. Is this something that's limited by the APIs, or is it something that can be configured to go away on its own?

What would you consider shorter? If I do it I would prefer to consolidate everything together so more like a selection between none / 5 seconds / 10 seconds / 30 seconds / 1 minute so that way there is no 2 options for the same thing, what you think?

Is the autohide for the NN screen or the notification itself. If for the notification, the choices of 5/10/20 would probably be ideal, at least to me. If it is for the NN screen, then just a standard 5 seconds would be fine. I wouldn't think you would want it to not show up as all; I mean you want your name out there and all, I get that.
By the way, did you see my edit above?

The NowNotifier screen is more for you not to leave by error the app when you don't want it because when you get to it, you are a swipe away from leaving the application.
I think I got it, the auto hide is when you receive a notification. As soon as you touch the application, the autohide stops so you can browse/read your notification. If i understand you well, you want to dismiss the application once you execute an action (like reply) is that correct?

Correct.

Well then yeah, that would have to be a new option something like "Hide application after action" and that basically wouldn't have a delay, once you click the button it hides.

I just thought of another "issue", please don't take this as nit-picking. I really do like your app.
I use the stock sleep app at night. This silences notification and keeps the screen from coming on in the middle of the night. Your app still goes off throughout the night and I never remember to turn off your app until after the first time I'm woken up by the buzzing on my wrist. Is it possible to make your app "respect" the sleep mode?
I am not a developer and only have a very generic understanding of api's and such, so this may not be feasible.

Did you email me about that before?
Yes I'm looking into it, by default I just post the messages that the phone broadcast, so I need to find out a way for me to know when the phone is in that mode to block the messages. No luck so far, but still looking into it.
I'll update the main post with a wishlist and work through it later.

No, I never emailed you... But that must mean I'm not the only one who thought of it. Thanks for starting this thread.

Yeah I got some a question about it some time ago, didn't know about that functionality so I'm looking into it. Yeah between emails and see if comments were updated, I saw a question about the application in this forum, so decided what a better place to keep all the feedback in one place.
Also at this moment I'm doing some live development, testing my encoding PC for other project so feel free to drop and keep the feedback going :good:

Here is a quick demo for the hide after action

Ok I have a list of enhancements I would love to see:
Phone app:
1- When first installed, all applications are enabled (checked) by default, it takes a while to uncheck the applications you don’t want to receive notifications from. Maybe a "check/uncheck all" button.
2- Option to receive notifications on Gear and vibrate while keeping screen off.
3- Option to not show notifications on Gear when phone is used “i.e. screen on and unlocked”.
4- Option to dismiss notification on Gear when it is dismissed from phone, and vise-versa.
5- Option for to exclude notifications from “ignored phrases”.
6- Option for “Night/Do not disturb” times.
7- Provide option for different vibration “duration” for each app
Gear app:
1- Theming option (dark background & light background)
2- “Text size option”.
3- You should queue all the notifications received.
4- Swipe right/left for next/previous notification. Swipe down to dismiss. And tap for notification text/details. Swipe up for (suggestions?)
5- After dismissing the last notification, app should go back immediately (1 sec delay?) to watchface.
And most important of all, stability, stability and stability. The problem I have seen with all the notification apps is stability and usability issues. Often they either hang, crash or stop receiving notifications for some reason or another. And that is very frustrating.
Honestly, if you want you app to be the best notification app (whether free or paid), you should look at the two other similar notification app and combine the best features with your app which I believe provides the best visual experience but lacks in features.

Thanks for the list Renegade!
You should have seen this app the first revision 2 months ago, it was as plain as it gets :laugh:
Some stuff is doable, other might not, right now is limited by my limited knowledge of Android an Tizen, like you say I like to work more on stability so for me is means to add 1 or 2 new features per release.

Some Screenshots of the new Lollipop release

I am loving the looks, I mean the Whitish themes everywhere, that's what I wanted for so long. Just some screenshots in case one want to look how some sections look, for fun, that's all. I am stating some of my views on it too, please share yours too.
However not everything is great, I don't like how they have ruled out the scaling on the options, you might encounter one or two mi****s every now and then. I mean when you tap on option of some app, the OK, Discard etc. options have no box outlining those options, so you don't know where the scaling finishes. They shouldn't have done that. Tapping with fingers (which is and will be mostly done) can't always be precise. I have already miss tapped in some places!
I also don't like how they changed the notification clock font size, the AM/PM font is bigger than the clock itself, weird. The lockscreen clock has also been redone, it now has a slimmer font that KitKat, which I am not a fan of.
And I don't know whether this is a placebo effect or not, but am I the only one who is feeling that the in call loudness (volume) is a little softer than KitKat? Don't know, can't be sure.
The Dialler app now goes full screen, I mean edge to edge, simple change yet looks much much better
The Multi-Window mode doesn't have any small U shaped notification any more when enabled at the side of the screen, you just long press the back button to enable or disable it.
The lock screen notifications are directly tap-able and expandable, instead of dragging down and then tapping it to expand it from KitKat.
I guess you guys can use this topic to report bugs, whichever you have found. If this topic seems like a duplicate then remove it immediately.
Have fun.
PS: One more thing, I flashed the Polish version of the ROM on my Arab N9005, 32 GB. I tried to flash the German ROM first, because it had multi CSC but it failed to flash, so keep that in mind, I mean I think the German ROM is meant for 16 GB variants only.

There is no 16GB Note 3 variant outside Asia... I recall there being an issue with the German rom when flashing over to another back when 4.4 came out. You needed the PIT file to sucessfully flash from the German rom to another. This could be related.

From Developer menu you can invert colors, but that's ... all colors. At least you get rid of white.
I noticed a bug: turning the screen on isn't smooth, it looks like a two step process light up.
A missing "feature": hovering your finger over the lockscreen no longer produces an effect.

And this is why I don't plan on upgrading before at least xposed works perfectly and there is a way to force a black theme onto everything.

Okay after playing with the release for couple of hours I am really not liking it any more (except the colour part). I mean as usual with Samsung, they hurried up and released an unfinished ROM IMHO.
First and the most annoying thing I am noticing that the WiFi password (WPA) is reset every time when I toggle Flight mode back and forth. This is extremely annoying and I am sure there's a way around it, or am I wrong?
- Never mind, it's solved now.
Secondly, where is the Mute/Silent option? I mean it's either Ringer mode or Vibrate mode, but there's no Silent/Mute mode!
Thirdly, the upcoming alarm time doesn't show up on Lock Screen! What the heck?
If someone can tell me how to get rid of the above please tell me, I am mainly annoyed by the first problem though, the WiFi password reset problem.

I've not heard the password issue before. Are you sure it's not just a bug?
The silent mode is split.
You have one toggle that decides how you are notified. (the old sound toggle) Sets to either sound or vibrate.
And another toggle that decides what you're notified about. (Looks like an entry forbidden sign). All, Priority or None. This is where you set Silent mode.
If you set this to priority, you can decide which apps notify you. (settings > sound and notification) Call, text, etc.
If you set it to None, you're not notified with sound or vibration. The notification still shows up on the screen.
Be careful, as this will also silence alarms!
I would suggest priority mode and simply disabling everything in its settings except alarms.
The alarm on the lockscreen, nope. They removed it. Fortunately we can always use GO locker.

I believe the WiFi passwords not saving issue can be solved by editing build.prop (that is how I fixed it on the leaked version, haven't updated myself yet)
Look for ro.securestorage.support and change it from true to false. I tripped the KNOX flag long time ago (doesn't change my warranty) and I haven't noticed any misbehaviours.

Yes, it was a bug, I mean it was a problem because my bootloader wasn't updated. Reflashed the ROM, all is okay now.

If you set this to priority, you can decide which apps notify you. (settings > sound and notification) Call, text, etc.
If you set it to None, you're not notified with sound or vibration. The notification still shows up on the screen.
Be careful, as this will also silence alarms!
I would suggest priority mode and simply disabling everything in its settings except alarms.
The alarm on the lockscreen, nope. They removed it. Fortunately we can always use GO locker.

Yes, was playing with that Interruptions option and figured that, but still that's a weird way. Don't know why Google decided to ditch the Silent mode, well at least Samsung could have kept that.
Go Locker? Well I tried a lot of third party lockers last week, didn't like any of them. I guess I will have to find a different alarm clock app which could give me an option to show the upcoming alarm time on lock screen, it's such a nifty feature to have. There's a module in Xposed which shows the actual alarm time in status bar (instead of that damn alarm icon) but well Xposed is not yet ready for TouchWiz ROMs, but when it becomes okay I will simply install that module. In the meantime I will have to look for a alarm app, that's all.

^xposed alpha 1 already released have not yet used it though. Still playing around with stock unrooted rom.

Yep mate, just saw that. Is it working okay with TW Lollipop now, I mean no more boot loop? Don't really want to try, in case bootloop happens I will have to redo all those formats and all, which I simply hate.
The only Xposed module I badly need is MinMin Gurad, can't stand ads, and AdAway is, well, complicated.

Replacement for LED notification ?

Is there some sort of feature that replaces the notification light which the ultra 20 lacks. They have this weird flash and edge light feature that only seems to work when the message comes in but if you miss the notification it is useless because it doesn't periodically blink. They have a reminder feature that you can only set to go off every 3 minutes (or longer duration); but it seems to be audio only.
If they were going to remove the notification led i would think they had a replacement feature ?

I don't use it and don't really care that it was removed but this thread on this forum might be what you want.

How do you tell if you miss a message if you leave the phone in the other room? Tap the screen ?

I'm retired and if they can't call I don't care. I do check it once in awhile.

AOD is intended to replace LED notification. I'm on my second Frontier watch, which is how I monitor notifications. I don't try to type with it, but I use it to decide if a notification is worth digging out the phone or not. I also use it for Samsung Pay daily.

Fone settings......... accessibility.......... advanced features.......notificationsns......... turn on screen/camera flash flash.
While you are in the accessiblity notifications, turn on notification reminder, set how often you want it.
This is far better than the little led, will definitely get your attention.

AODnotify is what most of us use to replace the LED. Search for it here on XDA.

Can we set the flashlight only for phone calls, instead of for all notifications? I get many notifications, i don't want to waste my battery for each n every notification.

I dont know of any set up for which app gets the flash specifically. But I would set up those apps for silent notification that you dont want any sound, vibrate or flash.

I use LED Me Know and it's awesome.
