[Q] Droid incredible capacitive button lights? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is their any way to turn off the capacitive button light on the droid incredible? I am rooted and am willing to install some zip files if I have to.

so your wanting to disable the leds lights for the bottom buttons of the phone? (phone menu back search?)
Are you wanting to disable them for good or just to be able to toggle them on or off?

in the market, free app. LEDS Hack. Latest version works great with the froyo builds. I turn off the notification icon as I don't' like it in the notification bar, too big. It warns that it might cause issues but I haven't had any in the time I've used it.
You can also control the notification light at the top too.

Yeah I want to be able to toggle them on and off. I'm rooted running skyraider Rom 2.5.2. Is their any way I can do this ?

Count another vote for LEDs Hack. I use my phone as an alarm clock replacement and it's great to be able to turn them off.

Trackpad light

Id like my trackpad to be constantly lit if I have a notification, instead of the fade in and fade out.
Would I have to edit lights.vision?

I like this idea. Going from my Nexus One to the G2, that's one thing I miss the most...even though the N1 flashed its trackball, it was much easier to see when I had a notification from across the room. With the G2, the trackpad light is so dim as it is, and when it flashes once ever couple seconds, its barely noticeable. If I had an option to keep it on, I'm sure it would help to get my attention.
Download LED me from the market and then when your in the setting for the duration go to custom and then hit OK which should make it stay lit when you have a notification. I don't have it installed so those instructions might not be exactly "followable"

Couldn't find LED me, but there is an app LED Me Know Beta, same thing?
UPDATE: Tried the app...this actually manipulates the tiny LED light under the speaker grill of the G2. The OP and I were talking about the light surrounding the trackpad of the G2. Thanks though.
Check compatability in settings, then under the notifications tab choose whatever notification you are setting up, then choose led color, then choose trackpad.

I tried LED Me Know, but it seems to drain battery a lot. Did anyone experience this?
LED Me Know does allow you to light up the trackpad. Go into the Notifications tab, then go into the specific app you want to notify you. Under LED color, choose TrackPad. You can make it blink or not, choose the rate it blinks, and choose whether to turn if off when the screen is on. The color is the only thing that you have no choice about because it's only a white light.
I love this app. Works very well on my G2. I haven't compared the battery life with/without it yet though. But turning the indicator's off when you turn the screen on would probably help. I really hope it isn't a huge battery drain. That would be a deal breaker.
Why the heck is Android so allergic to persistent popups anyway? Every old school phone in the world is in your face when you get a call/sms/email/voicemail/chat. But it's like pulling teeth to get the Android to yell at you when you have an alert.

Watch QBkings video of this rom, he shows how to turn these on screen buttons off in the first two or three minutes. Forget this, misread the question
There used to be an application called led hack that would turn off the capacitative buttons. Not on the market but you night be able to find the apk and see If it works

Not to be a necromancer but I'd really like to tackle this and be able to turn the backlights off.
LED Hack does not work for our device but Screen filter does, It'll turn the lights off until you turn the screen off and back on, the lights will then turn back on.
I'm not seeing anything in the logcat that gives a hint as to what the app is doing.
Any news on this?
It seems like many ICS based ROMs, not only AOKP, keep the capacitative button lights on whenever the screen is on. This causes more battery to drain and makes it hard to use as a clock radio (too bright). I have yet to find a setting to turn that off so it times out like most GB ROMs.

On any TW based ICS rom, you can select them to be always off.
Menu -> Settings -> Display -> Touch Key Light Duration
there should be a flashable zip to turn off the lights either in the codename thread or the aokp thread

Stock and rooted, is it possible to disable cap.buttons and run onscreen?

I've been looking around but haven't seen much, so I thought I'd see if I'm just missing it. I am running stock with the exception of being rooted and flashing CWM. Is there any hack I can use to disable the capacitive buttons and use the stock ICS on screen nav buttons?
Thanks!
I know you can turn them off at least. Settings/display/touch key light duration and choose always off.
I'm Not sure about on screen lights though sorry.

Thanks, not a bad start but I still would need those onscreen buttons.

ROM or mod to allow notification lights when screen in ON?

Does anyone know how to have the notification light blink when the screen is on?
I put my phone into a dock to use as an alarm clock, which keeps the screen on.
The problem is, when I get texts, etc, the notification light won't blink. Is there a fix for this? Thanks
No it is impossible it wil only blink with the screen off but just change the settings that your screen will go off after some time in tour dock

[Q] CM 10.1.3 Always on Capacitive button lights?

Is there anyway to have the capacitive back and menu buttons always be lit up? Touchwiz would allow you to do this but I recently upgraded to Cyanogenmod and this is bugging me like crazy. It only allows you to turn it off or have it turn on and off intermittently. I have seen plenty of threads on how to disable the backlight or the buttons completely but is there a way to just enable the backlight always on like in TW?
On 10.2.nightly: Settings / Buttons / Backlight ... Slider all the way to right is "Don't turn off"".
Betcha your battery goes south fast.
