Is there a way to use backlight notification on Nexus S?
Any Kernel or Rom give me the option of doing this?
Thanks in advance!
Kinda Pointless
Even with the backlight on, the Nexus S SAmoled screen is still completely black, so that seems to be pretty pointless as a notification system since you wouldn't see any change from when the screen is off to when the backlight is on.
The only applicaiton I've seen that actually serves of some use is NoLED, since it flashes different icons on a black screen. It's free on the market. Look it up if you don't know it already.
Ok. But what if it would possible to blink the bottom of the device (white bottoms)

does anyone know if its possible to adjust the back light dimmer lower than stock. I have tried the various programs that shade the LCD to make it seem dimmer, but they don't work the way I like. I want to use my xoom as a night clock, but unfortunately I can't get it dim enough. My Sony alarm clock has an LCD display that dims the back light in night mode to where you can barley see it. But in a dark room its perfect. All the other programs available just shade the LCD, but you can see the back light seep through and it keeps me awake. If anyone has a solution that can work on my xoom I would be grateful.
Thanks

You could try the app Screen Filter from the market. It allows you to set a %.
Hi, im wondering if anyone has succesfully edited files in sys/class/leds to increase the notification led brightness? I have a white d838 and the led is only half as bright as my previous white G2 D802..
Thanks in advance
Try installing LED manager apps like "Light Manager", "Light Flow". They can also set brightness for LED.
Or if these won't work, just wait a few weeks. We already have a proper recovery (CWM), not long 'til we have custom kernels. Those can also set LED brightness.
(By the way my G Pro2 is MUCH brighter than my S3 was. Let alone HTC's dumb tiny micro-led on top.)
I asked the same question on r/oneplus.
So I've bought a OP 7 Pro just 1 month ago and I'm really paranoid about burn in.
I searched a lot about amoled technology and from what i read i assumed screen burn in it's not something recoverable. And I took all the security measures to not make it happen. Auto-brightness, screen timeout to 30s, AOD turned off, and i never leave a static image on my phone.
Today I noticed that when i plugged my phone and the colors screensaver started, the fingerprint icon left a visible mark like it was burned in. But it lasted only a couple seconds and then it disappeared. Same thing happens with the signal icon on the status bar.
So, is that screen burn in? Or it's just image retention? And why is it recovering? Should I worry about it becoming permanent? I'm not even enjoying the phone anymore :c
Sorry for my english and thank you
Not that big of a deal. Especially with screen technology these days. Walk into your local carrier store, or Best Buy, look at an old phone that has an amoled screen and that's left on all the time for display. That's burn in. When the image stays there after a long period of time and doesn't disappear when the screen is turned off and on. When I had my S8 and S9, it was noticeable that the clock and always-on home button shifted all of the time. With screen technology the way it is now, a lot of OEM skins have some sort of burn-in protection in place. I've left the screen on my 7 Pro on for hours on end, alas at the lowest brightness, with the screen timeout set to never and I've never had an issue.
I'm paranoid about burn-in too. I use navigation gestures and systemui tuner app to hide status bar. I use battery widget reborn to see battery percentage and other notifications can be seen in notifications pull down shade. Use auto brightness to change brightness more frequently. I use amoled antiburn app to check for any burn-in. All clear so far.
Since launch, Not much chatter concerning this as an issue... Enjoy your device
I have Google maps burned in..? I hate it because you can see see on a white background alot.
Back when phones still had LED indicator lights, they would blink when you have a text or a notification or just different colors for different reasons and I miss that because I didn't have to pick up my phone.
So here's my question. Given that a lot of phones these days use amoled screens, that means these phones have the ability to only turn on certain pixels while leaving the others off.
Would you be able to create an app that would make a circle of pixels blink when you get a message and also customize the colors of the pixels depending on the notification?
Also it'd be cool if someone would do that because I know nothing about making an App.

There are already some apps available for some devices doing this.
E.g. Holey Light from chainfire:

100% Free - 100% GPLv3 Open Sauce - No ads - No tracking - No nags - Optional donation Holey Light is a LED emulation app. It animates the edges of the camera cut-out (AKA punch-hole) as replacement for the sadly missing LED on many modern...

Any way to increase that tiny led light? It almost got no benefit. Or any apps to add a notification light on screen such as around the camera cutout ?
Thanks

Find the option for turn on the screen when notification came.
Your request will work better if the screen is OLED with AOD.
LCD screen use more power when the screen is turned on. It's not possible to partially turned on. (At least haven't seen that ability on LCD screen)
