Hello I have had my NS4G for a month and through all the fun and excitement of unlocking and rooting it I noticed that when I get any type of notification that my LED lights don't come on at all. I actually don't think they ever did. Am I trippin or is it supposed to be that way lol.

There is no notification LED on this phone... so to answer you, its perfectly normal
Ty now I can stop thinking I was crazy.

Try a kernel with bln support as a workaround
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1036991
With BLN app from market.
Noled is another alternative. If you're interested in trying that (no special kernel required) I can give you the settings I found that work well. It took some trial and error to get them the way I like them.

you know, trinity doesn't work with stock rom...
Thanks for all the help I might try some of them. I just wanted to confirm my sanity lmao

Ok so I flashed a custom kernel using kernel manager but now I can't use wifi tether
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA App
Noled isn't that great of an app. For some reason when there is a notification, the soft touch buttons at the bottom of the phone stay lighted.
Also, the screen isn't pure black when the notifications come on. It has this greyish hue to it. Totally not liking the app.

Does anyone know of an app or a setting to control the touch button lights at the bottom of the screen?
i tried searching for a solution but found none.
I like reading off of the kindle app at night and with 22% brightness and white text on a black background, the result is a perfect experience -- except for the four blinding leds every time I turn the page...
This might also be helpful for those with issues during streaming video (i.e. Netflix).
I apologize in advance if this has been dealt with/is in the wrong place.

That is a very good question and I have the same problem while reading on my phone. I'm going to try and do some research to see if I can come up with a solution.
Try this. I don't know if it works or not yet

lol!! thats great.
Bump for a good question
the light buttons are bright as fkc at night. +1 good question.. probably saves battery too if someone can dev this app.

Install BLN control and check Activate Notifications. The lights will only stay on for a few seconds after you touch the screen/buttons.
Thanks for trying guys. I want to completely disable those bad boys. I know where they are. Don't need a searchlight!
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
Well you can't disable them. Not even the stock roms let you do that, the best bet is for them to only blink, which is they turn on when you're using them.
Some black tape works lol
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA Premium App
Would the touchscreen still work with black/electrical tape? That makes me wonder, but I am lazy and have none on hand to test out.

Do you know if the LED lights go back to full brightness after I turn on my screen?

No they don't. They stay at the setting in the app. Paul put it out its quality
Edit: this should be in the Q&A section
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Ok I installed that program
I tried it before but didn't played too much with it
Do I know if I NEED the service running 24/7 on order to work?

If your using the app, yes the service MUST run. If its built into the kernel\ROM like CM7, then you dont even need the app
You shouldn't be running a task killer anyway. Android manages its services by itself killing system apps on a regular basis can make apps that need to be running in the back ground start again wasting battery. Plus your phone will act strange after awhile. You shouldn't use them.
Again this belongs in Q&A

Moved to proper forum.
Too bad I didn't read this thread earlier, I figured this out on my own today, doing the same thing, I changed my brightness to 1 (the lowest it would stay lit) , I do think this would definitely help out on battery life.

The Touch Key Lights app DOES NOT works properly with
1) Cyan 7 mod
I am using stock Android now, it works like a charm
One touch, and the program changes the value FOREVER (even after reboots, after I re-insert the battery...)
Hi there XDA.. I recently have been experiencing problems with my Nexus S. The first one has been the G-Mail.... say I get a new Email.. ill pull down my status bar... click on the email, then it'll switch to gmail app. I can view everything in the app... and the four bottom keys (home, back, menu, search) all do their respective jobs.. but there's absolutely no feedback from the screen when you press on Something. Thank God its only that app. But I also experienced a problem when trying to install 3rd party apps. Everything goes throughfine..then it takes me to the screen where it warns you about what permissions you're giving the app.... and whether you want to install it or cancel. Well... everything on this screen is responsive except for the Instal button. I've tried to factory reset twice... and well.... the same problems keep coming up. I was woundering if anyone else had these problems ? Of if there was a solution? Thanks so much!

Are you using the stock kernel?? the Netarchy kernel have a touch tweak, you can use it and check if it fix the problem...
I haven't touched the kernel .... but what would I use to flash a new kernel? Definitely not odin ... lol plus I'm on 2.3.4 soo.. gingerbreak isn't working so no root for me

Wow actually I'm using screen filter... do you think that's the problem? !?!?!?!?!?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
That's exactly what it is. I'm using that too that's why I know. Lol. I had the same problem I restored to factory also but then I eventually figured it out that screen filter is the culprit. Haha.

That's so stupid lmao. Thanks for the tip! Figure out exactly why it's the culprit? Btw it worked

No prob man. Glad I could help.

Screen filter is actually the culprit. It even mentions this issue on its info in the market. Though it also says that with the latest version of gmail the issue is gone.

Haha thanks. Checked it out on the market... how am I supposed to update gmail?

I am having few things i noticed with my phone don't know if anyone else is having it-
Back button doesn't work in any setting or app. For example if I go to phone settings disable Bluetooth back key is not lit, have to click on home and start over.
GPS takes forever to lock .
Phone doesn't have a led for missed calls, is there a app which can do bln.
phone is running stock rom (2.3.7) and its not rooted
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA App
Check out noled. It works pretty well.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
The back button should work. I'd say there is something wrong there. For the other things like bln you'll need to install a kernel which supports it. That requires that you root your phone.
No back button doesn't work its not lit.

You're 12 years old aren't you? Lol jk
Yes I realize that. I'm not saying I don't belive you I'm just stating that it should work and if it doesn't then there is something wrong with ether the hardware or software on your phone. Best bet would be to root it and flash a ROM from scratch.
Anyone experiences randomly unresponsive touch screen after wake the device or try to pick up a call?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App
Are you rooted? Custom ROM? How many background apps were running at time? I have had it go blank on me but it is always looking at Facebook pics....needs update....anyway..but never unresponsive. On that note let me update my sig so everyone will know my specs.
I have heard of people complaining about this when there phone is plugged in but not otherwise maybe a bug? Or defective
