Could someone please create a mod to turn off the capacative buttons lights?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6756023&postcount=8
the apk in that link can power them off and on

Also if your rooted you can just go to the market and download "LEDs Hack"
Works like a charm!!

Thanks!

unless it's been updated lately, you have to use su 2.0.3 or the screen refreshes every few seconds. it causes games to reset and movies to flash or pause or both.

[Gingerbread]{file}Button Back-Lights like they used to be

Unrar attachment, then copy or push this file in /system/lib/hw and overwrite or rename previous. Reboot.
Button back-lights will function again as they supposed to and did in Froyo.
The hard keys will go on using the Tab and go off after 4 seconds.
Update: Working on stock gingerbread/kernel 2.3.3 (Chainfire CF and Dip7 kernel), Overcome 2.0.0 and Koxudaxis kernel (up till 3.0.8c)
Update: (15-6-11) Patch doesn't work for Overcome 2.0.1. Hermes nor CM7 is supported.
!Auto-dim, when battery is under 10% can be overruled by toggling auto-brightness on/off in notification bar!
doesn't work for my cm7;
Tested it on stockrom gingerbread, don't know about cm7. Should work on Overcome though.

works ok on overcome gold with koxudaxis kernel

Installed on stock Gingerbread, working perfect.
Thanks a ton, that is much better! I can't imagine why they changed it in the first place.

They probably changed it because many (most?) of us prefer the lights to be on with the screen! Still now we have the option.
why on earth would anyone want the 4 key lights on while watching a video?
Thanks! The button back lights have been driving me nuts when I am reading on my Tab. Works on Overcome 2 Gold.

Just use connect bot, remount the system and copy the file over.
Or put the .os file on your sd card and use root explorer to move file to where its needed...
Like Root Explorer, you can change the permissions from R/O to R/W...
Very good. Thanks
Thank you very much for this....have been expecting somebody to bring this out....
Thanks!
Just what I've been looking for. I can confirm it works on my tab running Overcome Gold as well. You my friend, rule.
anyone know why the lights stay on in netflix even with this patch?
Hmm, I wonder why would anyone want to do that (turn off the buttons lights)? It used to piss me off royally when I was using my Tab in the dark and I couldn't see the damned touch buttons because they switchd off after 3 seconds.

Í had the same probleme, but after a few months of use, I know exactly where the buttons are now. So keeping them off while watching a movie is better.
Works great on Overcome 2

How to flash custom ROM - please help!

Hi all,
I want to flash a custom ROM on my Captivate Glide, but I can not find any step-by-step instructions for that.
For example, the INC3PTION ROM Installation guide says:
3: Boot into CWM - HOW? Is this "Rom manager" by ClockworkMod or something else?
Thanks!
U first need odin and the cwm md5 tar.. open odin put in the pda slot and make sure auto reboot is only checked... start and let it run. Then u should have cwm... make a back up b4 u flash any rom and ur good to go... anymore questions just ask

Thanks SO much for your responses, very useful!
Does anyone know if it is possible to get the menu buttons on the Captivate Glide to behave like notification LEDs? I know this hack is available for other phones, so just wondering if anyone has this working on our model?
Cheers!

u can always use the thanks button as well to
Notification
Me 3!
I was also annoyed at the lack of a notification LED.
There are some apps in the market that ring/vib every few minutes if you have an unread msg/email/missed call etc.
If you have the Tasker app, there is a profile called Notification Reminder on the Tasker Wiki that does this.
Good luck all!

I use NoLED from the Google store.
It uses the screen not the menu buttons, is very configurable and works pretty well.
The screen is kept mostly black to reduce battery drain.

AOKP & How to turn Soft Key lights off

I have searched thru the forums and I have did a few Google searches. I cant find any information anywhere on how to turn the Soft key back lights off in AOKP. I have went to settings>Display and Custom options and the menu where you can change the number value of the screen and buttons, I turn all the value of the buttons to 0 and hit save and apply. Get out of the setting and get back into it and everything has been reset even after a few reboots..
This use to work a few milestones back but not anymore. Anyone found out how to do this on the latest build. Thank you.

This is how I did mine and it works great.... long press on home screen
Shortcuts-activities-galaxy SII options...from there uncheck backlight keys.... than i downloaded button remapper from the market and changed all my keys functions and set them as "focus" so as long as ur not in the camera app they do nothing so only the softkeys work and u don't hit the turned off home key or something by accident....
Button remapper wasn't in the play store but sure where I got it lol but its the app I used....maybe got it of off 4shared idk anyways here it is if anyone wants it

Remove Google now from Home button?

Hello, can someone please tell me how to remove google now option from home button. It get's annoying when I accidentaly open it, I don't need it's functions, so maybe I can disable it, not just turn off?
Thanks.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA Premium HD app
I would like to know that as well!
Not sure what you mean. You mean long pressing the home button and getting the Google "circle"? If so, not sure why that is an issue for you. I didn't even know about it until I read the post as I never long press the home button.
I found it:
Settings > Interface > Navigation bar > Navigation bar ring targets.
Here you can set how many apps you want on the ring and also which app. (could no way to disable the rings completely, but for me it becomes useful now, that I can set some apps myself.

That's... a custom ROM feature.
I'm so sorry, totally forgot that you could be on stock Rom. Nevermind then...
CM10 is Ur best option for getting this done. Either that or use Holo Locker.
I'm gonna get u the APK of an older version Cuz the current one has Google now.

If I have helped you.... hit that sexy thanks button. ^_^
I'm using MIUI.us, so I don't have that disable option. This funxtion get's me annoyd specially when I play FruitNinja. Just can't play for 5 minutes without opening google now.

Hit the thanks button. This version has no Google Now Option at the lock screen.
Just Camera and unlock.
This app will disable security and allow u to use volume rocker to wake.
Also u need lock screen in settings.
I think this is Ur only option to disable now with a good locker ( best one IMO)
--------------------------------------------------
If I have helped you.... hit that sexy thanks button. ^_^
Nothing changed, just my lockscreen is now custom and I don't have PIN security. Still holding Home button Google now option pop's up.
Which Roms allow to disable GoogleNow? Only CM10 nightlies?

But if you only disable the search app, it will disappear only. but still you can not use the space at desktop, as it will be used for hidden app.I would suggest to use non stock launchers(nova/apex), where all apps could be easily removed etc.

Control musikplayer with phone buttons

I have a question: is it somehow able to control my music player via long press oc volume buttons like it does in cyanogenmod? Coz cyano isnt as developed with s-pen as stock. Root and nandroid both available...

I think u can use a 3rd party app like JAYS headset control for ur stock music player or instal another player like ttpod.
There is a mod in the tweakbox apk that allows long press on the volume key to change track but you have to download the xposed framework apk first. Its in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2012770

well
you have to enable the tweakboxbox in the modules Tab of xPosed
in in the Tweakbox in Misc you have to enable the vol. button option.
also your player has to have an enabled support for the one button Headsets (@least I think that coz when you hold the vol. button while screen off [it only works when screen is off] you hear 2 beeps when you hold v+ (next Track) and 3 beeps when you hold v- [prev Track])
