[Q] BLN and Viber on Nexus S - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone!
I have a question.
I have a Nexus S with BLN turned on. It's working excellent except when i receive a message
via Viber it doesn't turn on. Actually it turns on but it turns off in a second because the screen
turns on.
So my question is: Is there a way to disable the screen turning on when i get a message on Viber so that
BLN could work?
Thanks!

I've changed numerous roms and the message always turns on the screen. It doesn't unlock it, only turns it on.

Ru using NSTools?
If not change kernels and use NSTools so u can control the length of the BLN.
Some ROMs kernels are just basic, so getting a better kernel gives u more options and control.
Search ur ROMs thread to see what kernels work best with it.
Good luck

I've used NSTools since i rooted my Nexus which was in december of 2011.
And i always use Marmite kernel which has plenty of options so...
Nonetheless, thanks for your help man!
If it won't work, it won't work. I can live without the light for Viber messages.

It's a Viber issue. Viber team has stated multiple times they would fix this, yet haven't because they lack the "man power". Usually a pretty simple fix, heck, it has to be implemented for the screen to turn on rather than for it NOT to turn on, but whatever.

BLN problem
Hi all!
I've Nexus s/CyanogenMod/Marmite 8.5 BM.
The BLN keys don't work with the marmite kernel but work with stock cyanogenmod, marmite does not support BLN or I've made an error?
thanks ......

Install NSTools from Play and activate BLN.

[Q] i9020a BLN

Anybody have this working on their phone yet?
tested on my i9020a and doesnt work either for me anyone?
Seems to work fine on mine.

thats odd i tested it using the free version and the BLN test didnt even work. Tried calling a few times and missing the call as well as texting my phone and leaving the message unread and still nothing. Wonder if this is the case with only the rogers/fido/telus/bell i9020as as some of us had to root via the i9023 CWM recovery.
Yeh, I got caught with the problems of flashing the i9020 CWM instead of the i9023 version but the BLN is working for me both with the free non-blinking test and pro blinking test.
The NSCollab ROM I'm using includes the latest Netarchy 1.3.0.3 CFS kernel. Maybe that's the reason it's working for me??
really thats interesting, the kernel i tested one was the 1.3.0.3 netarchy kernel i guess i'll have to test it using the paid version and see wat happens
edit: tested using the paid version and it seems like its the i9023 root method thats screwing things up a little.

That's what I was kinda wondering about the i9023 recovery, I guess that is what is doing it. I have the paid version of BLN as well, and it didn't make any difference.
did a bit more testing and it seems that BLN does work, but only for SMS and not for missed called even with the LED notification on for missed called.
Took mine back to 2.3.3 stock, installed Netarchy latest 1.3.0.3 kernel and now I'm getting the same behaviour: BLN test doesn't work, LED notification on missed calls not working but LED notification on new email is working.
Might try flashing the NSCollab ROM again to see what happens.
Tried running fix permissions on the stock ROM but this didn't seem to fix BLN notifications.
Reflashed NSCollab ROM. Tested BLN and initially still not working but after a reboot it's all working properly again.
so it might just be a stock rom + BLN kernel issue has any of the kernel devs looked into this?
I tried it out a few hours ago on my 9020a with CM7 and the Trinity UV kernel and so far BLN free version works great, not that I have much use for it, never used it on my Galaxy s but will see.
I too am having issues with it working on calls. emails/txts it works without fail.
EDIT:seems i found the issue. its the good old BFS choose a kernel that doesn't use it and it works fine. Seems bfs doesnt really like the 9020a's.

Hi,
I'm just wondering if anyone got BLN working on the Jame Bond kernel ?
I've read in that thread that it supports Voodoo and BLN and I'm using the Sabai dee kernel but BLN doesn't seem to work for me ?
To be honest, I'm not too sure how to run the test. I click on it and it says press the power button to test it, which I do, but then my screen just turns off and nothing happens....am I doing something wrong ?
I also brought the pro version, and tried calling myself and sending myself an email and nothing happened.
Any suggestions ?
Cheers in advance
I'm running SupeAosp 6.2 Rom and BLN works perfectly for with, this includes missed calls and notifications. The Kernel that I'm using is 2.6.35.12-SuperAosp-S-1400. Apparently the next upgrade is going to be compiled with the UV which I am planning to test out as soon as its released. Furthermore as a bandage solution people can use NoLED without any mods at all, I found the app quite useful as I was not experienced enough to recompile with BLN included.
I forgot to mention, I am using an i9020A.

first of all make sure all your settings are correct in the bln app...
bln works for the 9020a, but I forget if the missed call works or not...everything else seems to. with that being said, the issues with stock and the missed call not working will be sorted shortly...when the 9023 gets working...its not the 9023 recovery causing the problem

Captivate switched to LED notifications?

Hey, lately my captivate decided to switch its notification ways. Instead of vibrating and showing that i got a text at the type, it just stays silent and turns on LED home buttons. I have no clue what i changed. I don't have any LED hack apps. If this happened to you, please help. Thanks

Perhaps you flashed a new kernel w/ BLN (Back Light Notification)...

i used the bln control app, but now after my phone vibrates on a text the notification goes away and is freezing up
EDIT: It's fixed now woot, thanks guys. Now I just have to find out why it's been freezing up today, I ran the stability test and neocore for 10 hours as I was sleeping and no errors came up. Will do again tonight.

[Q] [Q/A] Best kernel for BLD

Hi guys! I'm new to android and I'd like to know which kernel implements BLD the best. I'm running codename 3.6.6 (with air kernel I guess) and BLD isn't great on this rom (I've set the bld delay to 0ms in nstools, but whenever I tap one of the buttons they light up for 1ms and then go off again).
I was thinking of GLaDOS kernel but will it support codename 3.6.6 (jellybean) or will I need to flash some other rom?
If I have to flash some other rom which one would you suggest?
(I've got a Nexus s )
Thanks in advance!
Do you just want the backlight off all the time?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
Yes, I prefer having the backlight (on the 4 buttons) always off. But I want those buttons to function normally.
The minimum delay is 500ms regardless of the kernel
I recommend marmite kernel
I recommend reading the forum rules before posting around this site again.
Asking about best ROMs/kernels etc is a great way to get threads locked down.
I'm facing same problem...Yesterday i installed new rom named NIK Sensetion XL...or smthng...It has sense 3.5 wid android 2.3.3 ...this rom is overclockin my cpu from 1024 mhz to 1228 mhz...i dun like this overclockin...i used set cpu bt stil it fail to control my cpu...how can i stop this overclockin??? N use stock cpu clockspeed 1024 mhz...plzzz reply....

I'm using codename 3.6.6 and i've set the delay to 0ms (I guess codename uses air kernel) and the backlight switches off a lot faster than 500ms (I've tried delay=500ms as well and the lights go off a lot slower with that setting)

Hi, I actually posted this in the General forum and it got moved (I'm a reader who just started posting ) So, sorry about this but I wasn't asking best ROM/kernel combination, just want to know the best kernel for BLD

CM10 M2 on Nexus S (i9020a) Noob Questions

So I just rooted my Nexus S for the first time and started messing around with custom ROMs and kernels.
I'm starting off with CM10 M2, and I've noticed that a few features seem to be disabled regardless of which kernel I'm using.
Under the Advanced settings for my Nexus S, the option for Deep Idle is greyed out and cannot be enabled.
Also, over in the display tab of Advanced settings where you should be able to controls colors and such, everything is greyed out as well.
If I recall correctly, the screen color settings were only clickable when I still had the stock kernel installed, and with both matr1x and marmiteCM they were greyed out. Deep Idle seems to be unavailable with all three kernels.
So is there anything I can do to enable these settings? Is it a kernel issue? Will deep idle work properly on my phone and save me battery life?

Have you fixed permissions?
Deep Idle is not compatible with Jelly Bean (at least it wasn't)

You mean through Clockworkmod Recovery? I haven't done that yet because I think I've read somewhere that it can cause FC's and other problems.
Is it safe?

Yes it is safe. Infact it is suggested for some FC's. Give it a shot and report back.

Many kernels do offers deep idle or are working on it. It has a history of not being stable so it is a work in progress.
Sent from my Jellyfied Nexus S 4G
Well, upping this thread.
I'm experimenting with roms and trying to install different kernels. And I've got same symptoms — in Settings/Advanced disabled everything but BLD tuning.
Using CWR 6.0.1.0, latest marmite and matr1x, several CM-based roms (starting with CM10.1 M1).
Tried full wipe before/after installing kernel. Tried fixing permissions in CWR.
Main thing I need from there is voodoo colors, otherwise I'd just use nstools.

[Q] Searching app for waking-up the Nexus with a "double tap"

Hi,
I search an app (for my unrooted device) that can wake up the phone from stand-by with a "double tap" on the screen. Like the LG G2 has.
The only thing that was better on my old Xperia Arc, was the home button on the front that wakes the phone. If the phone lies on the table, tapping the side-button of the Nexus to wake up the device is a little tricky... double-tapping to wake up the phone would be really cool
Anybody knows an app that works like this? Thanks for help in advance.

This indeed sounds awesome.
I think this will be implemented in the near future in some kernels. No sure though.. I've seen it in some kernel options when I had the GS3...

You might try Touch Control
Based on user feedback, it seems to cause some problems and high battery drain, though.
Touch Control didn't work for me, because I didn't want to flash back to stock kernel. I'm using Bricked kernel, where it can be enabled through KControl. There's no way to do it without rooting/flashing though, at least not that I know of. Go here for more info on Bricked

I really hope franco adds dt2w and s2w to his kernel. I much prefer franco over bricked (I got better battery life and performance) but I really want dt2w as well... sigh
