good for you..!!
i really hate those
one of my LEDs is burnt out. super pissed.
I need to ask.. for those of you that do like the HW LED, doesn't it distract you in any way especially in the evening/nights/dark????
I never understood why SE designers came up with this OR for that matter what was the true intention of these LED's.
On another matter, shouldn't this thread be part of the General sub-forum instead of this Dev area?
Thanks for this info nevertheless.
what does hw stand for...???does disabling led saves battery???

hahaha ...same here... this app did the leftover part..!!
This app is very good for lowering your brightness when you are in the dark,
because the default lowest setting is still very bright for a little-to-no-light enviroment.
But it has to run constantly in the background and uses a lot of CPU,
so I don't think it is wise to be used as a HW LED disabler.
But if you are in the movies and want to check your messages
without people next to you whining about blinding them with your screen, it's superb!

maybe.. but they are so small, practically they could consume nothing... this is just for those who dont like them..
Is it just me, or did the colour of the hw leds change from donut to eclair?

Which LED? the one showing low battery etc?
The leds in between the hardware buttons...search home and back

I think that they include it so like if u get a notification, message, text what ever u can just tell by the LED u dont have to slide to unlock it. just seems simpler,faster and easier, could b wrong but
Please tell me how tu disable this LEDs wiht this program, a don't see this option ?
Enable / disable soft-key backlight - no effect on my stock 2.1 Xperia X10 (2.1.A.0.435 + Arc Theme)
Edit:
I read somewhere that it works only on Android 2.2+ ... it's true ?
I like them as an accent piece. They don't bother me and the couple of times my phone has frozen their continued on status was a quick heads up without waiting too long.
Plus I don't pull my phone out in the theatre!
thanks for this, great app
Is there a way to make this app start on phone boot? If there is, could you tell me a "dummy-way" to do it?

title says it all thanks
i dont think the hero supports many colors like the G1. i have tried SMSpopup and chompSMS, both have the option, but neither work.
that sucks i hope is has them i dont see why htc would take them out
in order for an LED to have different colors, it has to have different colored diodes within it. No app will magically add another colored diode in the LED
yea i know but the hero might have them but no apps have support yet idk

The Hero only has orange and green. It was confirmed with a conversation with HTC
oh thats dumb
What about an app to make it blink for longer then 5 minutes when you miss something?
i dont know any i want to start making apps someone how do you make them?
Maybe an app that can make it blink back and forth between the 2 colors...My Nextel Motorola ic902 used to flash between the 2 colors...Something like that would be nice..
yea i need to figure out how to make apps that would be nice

Well you should have the SDK from when you rooted. I'd say thats the first step.
anyone?...
if you have to ask, no offense, you probably arent a sufficient programmer, plenty of guides on setting up and using java/android SDK, also probably a ton of sample code around too... you have to setup java/eclipse/android_sdk...
no i am just woundering if there is any apps out??

Hi Guys
You know when you plug your phone to charger or to USB there is an orange light on the upper right corner of the screen.
Is there any way to modify this, so that new mail, new sms or any notification that we choose makes this light blink? (Like blackberry style or trackball LED style)
See the screen shot
Google has removed the APIs from Nexus One to control the trackball leds which is kind of dumbass thing to do

He's not asking about the trackball... he's asking about the one in the upper right of the screen....
But.. just curious... why don't you just want the trackball to blink? It's brighter and easier to see.

I find it easier to see that orange light.
Trackball's light seems to be very weak.

I'm still curious about hacking the LED in the upper right of the screen...
Try Missed Call.
App was make for rooted devices, N1 led don't flash different colors, if it has been rooted when the charger or usb is plugged the led flashes the assign colors. Always flash is the app. ONLY WORKS FOR ROOTED PHONES.

This guy knows what he is talking about.
He just mis-worded it, well it could work either way actually. App developers cannot make the LED (top left one) blink at all - and they also cannot control the color of trackball flash unless rooted.
It seems though, if you are charging the phone - and use an app like Missed Call, or Hancent SMS, the color of the LED does change.. but only when charging..
It is like Google completely disabled the LED unless the phone is being charged, other than that it is entirely off with no way to be accessed. I'm sure someone will find a loophole around this eventually I guess ~.~

Agreed. I need something for email also. That trackball changer works only for sms/mms.
In the Desire-ROM (HTC Sense) that has been leaked and now is available to Nexus 1-owners, the LED can be controlled just as the original post asked for. Works here, right now.
Just saying, no nothing is "stopped" when it comes to controlling the LED. It's just that no one has put any time into yet IMHO.

I 2nd that notion...
trackball light weak?
did he really say the trackball light was weak? are you really using a nexus one? my light is so bright, especially on white, that it practically wakes me up...
pauls nex desire rom aplha 9 works like this..
Try always flash..
I am wanting an app to flash the bottom key leds for alerts and such.
I second that motion
Very Cool Idea
different sequences would be cool too!
Great idea....hope this happens.
that would be really battery consuming if you leave your fone siting somewhere
way cool, just hope it doesn't kill the battery even more.
Here is one TheJza over at SDX created for the samsung moment. Once again all credit goes to him.
Yeah that sounds awesome, lets hope someone can figure this out!
Only problem I see is that I think the bottom row backlights could all be one light so we may not be able to get patterns and such :\
Agree I would also love to see this app! Tried the apk posted earlier which worked for the Moment but it doesn't work on our phones. Hope one of the brilliant people on here can make one! =)
I like the sequence idea. Maybe a different sequence for each type of notification. Pans left for SMS, right for Email, etc. Or maybe each light blinks individually depending on the type. Think that would be BA.

Interesting, now to add it into notification
Anyone intrested in trying to implement?
The big thing people wanted on the HD2, was a KITT style...which still would be bada** but they couldn't ever get it to work like that...
Maybe someone can do it with this phone, but I doubt it...I really hope so though.
Great idea! I would love this, also would donate to the cause.
Anybody manage to get this working?
Would LOVE for this app

+1 I miss the led notifications from my pre and the EVO doesn't flash while charging
Bump!!!
Sent from my evo using XDA App
Bumpity Bump
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
that's my problem:
i got a desire s and realized the notification led only blinks about 5 minutes after missed calls or new messages.
then it stops.
apps like light flow, missed reminder, easy reminder, all together don't work well or don't work at all!
it must be possible to find an app to extend the blinking of the led to infinite!?
the colour of the led is not significant in this case, green would be enough.
i have no root and s-on.
i heard it would be possible to extend the blinking with "light flow" , but only with root access.
can you help me to find a good solution without rooting? on my old desire it worked very well without root! so my new desire s should do it as well....
First, POST QUESTIONS IN THE GENERAL SECTION.
Secondly, I've not paid much attention, but i'm pretty sure mine doesn't stop until i check my phone.
sorry for the post!
but maybe it's because i use stock rom and no custom rom?
the problem with the led notification für 5min should be relevant for every stock rom... for sure.
I checked, and the problem is there in the ROM i'm using. Just never noticed it.............. It doesn't really bother me, not that big an issue. I can live with this, cuz i'll see the notification as soon as i open the phone.
I have this "problem" as well, the time is too short, but if it's infinite it would drain the battery even faster, which isn't wat we want either..

I think that's why HTC made it short in the first place.
yes.... to stop the notification after 5 min to save battery makes no sense.
...that's the reasen why the led blinks infinite in orange when the battery is low?
i think that htc did't really get the meaning of a notification led!
any news?...
can't be spoken the last word..
Post the Problem to HTC and hope for changing with next update!

Why dont you try the app called "Missed reminder"
It's free on the market.
***Ignore this post- I never read first post properly****
cause missed reminder doesn't work.
there's no app for the desire s that works so far, i think!
Hi,
The app Light Flow works, but you need root.

Also phoneAlarm works as it is supposed to. This being said on a rooted Desire S and you have to pay about 2 US dollars for the full version.
When your phone is in your pocket, full volume notifications are necessary if you don't want to miss a message. But when you already have your phone out and unlocked, there's no need for them to be loud and annoying, especially if you're already using the app they originate from (e.g. message apps).
Awake/Sleep Volume Adjuster lets you set custom notification volume levels for when your phone is asleep and when it's awake.
This is my first app, so I apologize for any issues it may have, but I hope people will find it useful. Either way, it's been nice to have just for myself!
Nice idea, but ram hungry!

Aw, is it really? Bummer. For me it was on par with my other background-type helper apps I use regularly. What device/version have you tried it on?
Very useful app. Thank you!
Does this effect battery life at all? This is a great idea for an application. I hate when I almost crap my pants from a notification being too loud! I hope this app does well and has many more updates in the future.

I have an HTC Evo Design 4G which has atrocious battery life (carry around a spare in my wallet) and haven't noticed any decrease. I regularly check the battery use because I have to watch for things eating it up and it hasn't shown up yet!

I've got a problem, when someone calls me, and my phone isn't in my pocket, but I'm not using it either, the screen turns on, so the phone goes vibrate mode, I don't know if can be fixed. Great app btw.

Damn! I never actually use my phone as a phone so that never crossed my mind. I'll look into it changing it, but right now the app simply works on whether the screen is lit up or not. Thanks for the heads up!
