[Q] Samsung Infuse Call, SMS notification light issue - Samsung Infuse 4G

Hello Everyone,
I have Samsung infuse installed with CM10 JB 4.1.1 v. 8/23/12 ROM which is working good, I get fare battery life of 1.5 days with normal use.
But I am not getting any notification on screen when I get any call or SMS, I get ringtone alert but screen is blank.
Please let me know if all are facing this issue with Call or SMS notification light. Also tell me if there is any FIX available for this.
Thanks in Advance .

There is no notification light for the Infuse, and none of the ICS or JB ROMs have the built in "screen light up upon notification" ability that Gingerbread had. I believe this is because the post-Gingerbread ROMs for Infuse are built upon code for phones with notification lights.
But, your screen should still be lighting up when you receive a call. Mine certainly does. You might want to try a re-flash.

Hi Lukas, Thanks for reply. I did re flash but I m still not getting lighting up screen notification when I receive any SMS.
Actually is it possible for Dev team to glow up Menu, Home, Back and Search button lights up or blink when we miss any call or SMS ?
That will be really great, what you say

The screen won't light up for SMS outside of Gingerbread ROMs. As I said previously, I think this is because the ICS and JB ROMs that are built for the Infuse are being built off of code for phones which have notification lights. Phones with notification lights also don't light up the screen for SMS...they just light up the LED notification light.
I too wish that the screen would light up when I receive an SMS, as I'm completely deaf in one ear and don't always hear the notification sound. I've suggested it on at least one ICS ROM, but that suggestion never came to fruition.
I think it's just one of those things that most people don't care for. I enjoy the added functionality of JB, so I've just learned to live without it.
If it's a deal breaker for you, there are still some really awesome Gingerbread ROMs that you can flash that will still have the native SMS notification screen light up. Or, perhaps you can go into the Development subforum for whichever ROM you're running, and ask the developer if there is any way to add this functionality back into post-GB ROMs

Use GoSMS it has the features that you're looking for and it's FREE.

Problems encountered after flashing to hero rom

Hi everyone,
Thanks to KarrdeNZ's well written guide, I managed to flash my rom to
********Hero ROM for Magic modded for TW users (based on Fatal1ty2787's releases)********
07/18 myhero-08 by redglasses
I just noticed that my phone's LED lights are missing. The LED doesnt light up while charging, and it doesnt light up when receiving SMS as well. I think the LEDs just disappeared completely.
Anyone encounters this and is there anyway to solve it?
Thanks!
Hero ROMS currently have the following issues
Bluetooth headset/mic support is broken, though Bluetooth headset playback works fine - no known solution.
TouchFLO sluggishness - don't use it or minimise widget use - especially clocks.
LEDs mapped incorrectly - no known solution.
Camera flipped/oriented wrong - need to reinstall old Camera package to fix
Take a look here : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Sapphire_Hacking
I got my sms led working, via chompsms.
Charging still doesn't work but tats not really.important I guess
Yeah you can use chompSMS or SMS popup to get the message notification LEDs working again.
Also the LED does work while charging, well sort of, it will turn green when it's 'charged' but won't glow orange like it used to whilst 'charging'.

Optimus 3d notification led idea

Maybe this belongs in the development area but...
The evo3d got a notification led wich i like...what about if we can make the capacitive button led's blink or something when we have a mail and sms...
Maybe more guys have this idea but well....tell me if its possible and a good idea
It is probably possible and I think developers will have a hand on it if they havent yet.
It will be eventually supported.
this idea is awesome. i think it is possible

Glad someone's liking it
This would be a nice to have for sure. If can light up those "buttons" to use for notification, it will be great.
This is already done with O2X, so it is definitely on the way for us
My previous phone was GalaxyS which had no led aswell.
I used a programmed called NoLed on the Galaxy. Installed on Optimus 3d and seems to work fine.

It doesnt support the capacitive button led's.
Sorry i was only suggesting this as a temporary alternative until further developments.
I really like this idea!
But is it possible to expand on it further?
Since there's 4 capacitive buttons on the phone, are we able to make them blink individually?
For example... home button blinks when we have a missed call, menu button blinks when we have a message, back button blinks when we have an email, and etc?
Noled seems to be working fine for me...

Unfortunately not. As the app page states, AMOLED uses no power displaying a fully black pixel so displaying alerts on the screen takes very little power.
Now as the O3D has an old fashioned LCD, it consumes potentially a ton of power just to turn the screen on at all, because it has to light the whole screen just to start. Plus, it uses the MOST power displaying black (least displaying all white), so it would need the opposite behaviour.
[UPDATE]
Ah I see you can make the screen blink, I didn't notice that at first. Might actually be useful then.
i've tested it with the developer of the LG notification app. it seems, that the files which have to be used are'nt writeable. so without root it won't work
perhaps we should send tons of mails to LG, that they make it possible.

Also the notifications can have a time limit, i have set at 15mins and haven't noticed any battery drain.
Modified 2X/Black touch led notification app
Hi guys,
I've modified Martin Börjesson's app and now it works on ROOTed O3D and I'll upload it soon.
To-do:
1) fading doesn't work
2) change of brightness doesn't work
What will never work
1) separate LEDs - I don't think there's a way to control each of them, only all 4 LEDs

[Q] Soft for strobe/blink camera flash led with new message?

Hi I wonder if anybody has heard about software to use the camera led for messaging warnings?
That would be clear to see! instead of pitty htc led
It would KILL your battery and possibly burn out the LED flash. I wouldn't do it but it IS your phone.
Wasn't me!! I didn't do it!
iPhone's have that function, where an incoming call is made the flash on the back flashes a couple times.
I have light flow from the market and I think it has this option

[Q] Possible to light up only sidepanel when message received

Hi all,
If the question isn't that clear: Is it possible to let the sidepanel light up when you get a message? sms or whatsapp or whatever? only the sidepanel. And this when the mainscreen is off. so the phone is locked.
At this moment the sidepanel doesn't do anything when something is received. I checked all the settings but nothing happens.
Thanks for all the future reply's
When the screen is off, you can rub the Side Panel like a genie lamp and it will show you any missed notifications. But AFAIK, that's about it...

I found an alternate way to accomplish this. It's not exactly what you want but it comes very close imo.
1. Go to your lock screen settings and turn off all information that can be displayed on your lock screen.
2. Turn off all lock screen effects.
3. Choose swipe to unlock.
4. . Select a pitch black wallpaper of your choice and select it as your lock screen wallpaper.
5. Profit! I set my ringer to silent when i am in a meeting at work. When you receive a text message, the orange edge notification panel lights up and goes out in 3 secs. The main display stays completely blacked out, (except for the nav buttons and notification pull down menu) thanks to your black lock screen wallpaper. This much more discrete, compared to having your entire QHD display light up in all its glory, during times when more stealth is required
I too thought this was going the feature of the phone WITHOUT rubbing the edge panel
guess we either have to wait for a rom that does that or Samsung release something for that cuz that would be so SICK!!
I saw the Korean Note Edge screen lights up when receiving text message, so is this feature for some strange reason removed for US versions? Honestly to a certain point I thought this was one of the main reason to using the edge , not waste battery by reading the text message without turn on the entire device.
any updates?
Does anyone know if this will be available soon? Maybe in the lolipop update? Would love this to come out. Thought it was already on it tbh
I almost made a new thread before coming across this thread. Are there any updates on this? I'm running Lollipop now on my Note Edge but it still doesn't appear as if they have included this feature which leaves me a bit dumbfounded since it would seem like the perfect use for this Edge screen. It kinda does it already when you rub it (which takes quite a long time to load) but it would be nice if it would just light up automatically when you get a SMS, email, Whatsapp, missed call etc.
hi,
I own the flip cover from Samsung and with this when I receive a notification or a call I get only the edge screen power on.

Yes mine is possible... n915L
remove the fingerprint security...
then go to messages then setting then notifications (turn on the notification then check the EDGE SCREEN option...
Edge Screen option says
Show preview of new messages on the edge of the screen..
Then Everytime you received a message... it will show at the EDGE of the Screen.....

Damn, I already have a flip cover from a third party. I didn't like the Samsung one because the edge screen isn't covered at all (mine has a plastic cut out). Nevertheless, they should still make it possible even without the official flip cover since it can easily be a functionality built into the phone, not the cover.

Thanks, I didn't know that but after checking it, it was already ticked. I hardly ever get any SMS, mostly messages through Whatsapp and Line. What I was talking about though isn't even a preview of the messages, just icons like what you would see on the status bar before you pull it down for the notifications. The Information Stream doesn't display notifications from every app even after I select them in the settings (and even then, you'd have to rub the edge for it to appear) and the Briefing Panel also doesn't show every notification I get (I got a few Facebook messages on the Messenger app in my notifications but according to the Briefing Panel, I had no notifications). Of course, it's not a big deal and I still love my Note Edge, but this is the kind of thing that always made me stay away from Samsung in the past. A lot of potentially useful features let down by poor execution.
Go to the play store and find Augmented SmartWatch Pro and Augmented Edge. These two apps (both by the same dev) together do what you're wanting. The main screen DOES still turn on, but it's a blank grey to black gradient (kinda like the background of the quick glance from the Note 3). I'm hoping a later update gives the option to just make it completely black.

Thanks but the Augmented Edge only shows Google Music controls and the Augmented Smartwatch Pro costs $4. I don't know if I'm being a cheap bastard or not but I feel that's unreasonable considering it should've been a basic functionality. But the fact that it still lights up the main screen albeit with a dark grey/black gradient seems to indicate that it's not as easy to code something like this as I had imagined otherwise he would've just turned on the edge screen alone.

Personally I don't mind paying a little bit for a decently coded app that effectively provides a much needed feature, but I know what you mean.
Also, yes the Augmented Edge app by itself doesn't do much. And Augmented Smartwatch Pro doesn't even provide features relevant to non Wear users on its own, but the two work together and I've definitely enjoyed the benefits (I leave my edge on the desk by my bed so if a notification goes off or anything, I just have to turn my head to look. )

I'm glad I could help. On a related note (pun intended of course) for anyone reading this who may be interested ASP and AE (the apps mentioned above) was JUST updated to support an entirely black main screen while displaying edge notifications.

Using the S8+ a few days, some issues (Proximity in call, notification colors)

Hi everyone,
I recently upgraded my Note 3 to the S8+.
I'm somewhat happy with the device, but have some issues that really annoy me.
1. Where is the option to disable the proximity sensor while in a call? While trying to enter numbers with the keypad the screen constantly turns off and on, which really hinders me.
2. I installed the high contrast black theme. However, the notifications have stayed black text on white background. Are there any themes that inverts the colors of the notifications as well?
3. Can I flash Team Blackout's zips or the ad free Youtube app without without having a custom recovery of any sort?
4. What functionality will I lose if I root my phone in the future? I'm waiting for Xposed to get released for Nougat/O to switch over to a Lineage OS based ROM to get a better dark themed experience.
otherwise, I'm glad I upgraded. The screen really looks great for watching videos
Answering Q2,3,4
2, no.
3, needs root, so no.
4, Anything Samsung Knox related. Samsung Pass, Samsung Pay, Samsung Health, Private Mode, My Knox, etc...
Thanks. Too bad they half assed the theming so so much.
Samsung Pay isn't available here so I won't miss that. As long as I can use the fingerprint scanner for Lastpass I'll be fine.
