Hi All,
Been trying to find something that will work like NoLED for the SGS2. I have issues with NoLED in that in combination with Handcent sms and the popup notification, it gets its self in all sorts of messes (loops etc).
I've seen there is a BLN mod for SGS1 which allows the buttons to act as notification lights (e.g. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=813389) however there's nothing that I can find that works for SGS2.
Anyone found a solution?
BLN is supposed to be very close to being released for our SGS2.
i'm using NoLed since the first day i bought the phone and there's no issue.
+1 for this thread
Coming from a Desire, Im really missing my LED notifications... So any alternative is highly appreciated.
Can't use NoLED because I'm using WidgetLocker and therefore I disabled the stock lockscreen (which I truly HATE!)

Compability issues appears if you run widgetlocker, handcent etc. Noled also disables the functions of the sliders that appear on stock lockscreen. You know the one you get an SMS and a slider appears that takes you direct to the message. Function is broken with noled

I'm running Go SMS, WidgetLocker and NoLED and haven't come across any issues yet...
Can apps like this cause a burn in? And wont the continuous screen-on weaken the colors over time?

Answer, yes it could cause burn in, I don't think colours will be damaged though.
The biggest issue here will be battery drain. Using an app like this users processor power and screen power at a time the phone would normally be sleeping.

Function is broken? Not for me, works with the messages slider without any problems. Also, since I started using Handcent I have had no problem with noled either, noled works everytime I get a message, email etc. Strange how it works no problem for some but others have nothing but problems. :-(
use application BubbleBuzz from Android market
I got a problem with Noled in that if I use "other icons" for calls (Phone), the phone flashes and show who is ringing but immediately after that, the screen off the display in split second and only shows the green phone icon moving randomly(which signifies a missed call) even though the call is still ringing
Not sure if its explained clearly enough though.
Did I set it wrong?
I can't use anything with noled, not widgetlocker not the sliders from stock lockscreen etc :/ thats weird

I have both Wigetlocker and NoLed and they work fine together. At one time on my SGS i9000m they had a conflict but i spoke with the dev of NoLed and was informed that a fix was coming and i have the latest NoLed on my SGS II and have no issues...

I remember reading that a developer was working on the back lights as notifications....I can't seem to find it in search......any ETA ?

What are your sources?
if only the SGS2 had an led
it would be the most complete phone ever,but unfortunately no phone is perfect.
maybe SGS3

It has a big (amo)LED screen... and two LED's under the capacitive switches...
But that's been said before...
I want BLN for SGSII
Me too no issues at all ..thanks to madmac .
NoLed works perfect with Widgetlocker, just check settings in both programs to make sure nothing is blocking unintentionally
Has anyone seen any update for this? I've tried reinstalling it and still have issues. I need something like NoLED badly
Is there an app in the market compatible with ics, to change the colour led?
Thanks

Thanks for that - phone is upstairs on charge (as usual with its battery life hah, and I'm that lazy to go fetch it) - but I'll check when I go to bed later. Feel stupid for not trying this!
Ive found that turning off the screen still dosnt work for me but the app does actually work when i miss a call or text.

Thanks! new to android phones, works perfectly
It certainly works well.
But I find it to not work at times. Once I enabled the "force run in foreground" then I couldn't turn my phone screen on and had to take the battery out. So I think I'm fine with having it worked almost 80% of the time
It's a great app, quick and easy to setup.
But it does stop working sometimes, I've had it once or twice.
Does anyone else have problems with Lightflow? The notifications work well but then after I've checked the email or whatever, I turn the screen back off and the light carries on flashing, even though I don't have any more notifications
It depends on the notification, but if it's a Gmail notification and I open Gmail it goes away.

The app uses a few methods of clearing notifications.
At the moment 2.7.2 has a bug if you choose "screen" as the clear notification style. It's fixed in the dev build, but not in the market yet.
The others are manual (where you have to manually clear a lightflow notification in your notification bar) and finally "app". (some apps such as gmail have extra methods)
"App" monitors for entering the app (or pressing the "clear all" button in older builds of android) and clears when you've entered the app.
I'm guessing that if you swipe away a notification from the notification bar that the led might still keep going as with Gingerbread there wasn't a method to clear single notifications directly from the notification bar. I'm hoping this has changed in ICS. I know the accessibility service has had things added to it, but nothing jumped out at me that would add in the relevant hooks.
Remember when upgrading the app from one version to another (there's been a few updates over the last few days) that I'd recomment powering off and back on the phone.
Looking forward to running lightflow on a GN myself as I've just picked one up today.
This gives me chance to see if there are any cool features I can add into lightflow for ICS and specifically the GN.
Now, just to get my "real" job out of the way for the day so I can start playing with the GN!
does using lightflow affect the battery alot?
Apparently it drains alot
Lightflow gave me Sleep of Death, so I uninstalled it. All ok now.
Trackball alert pro is pretty cool too, one of my favorite apps on the n1, it's now compatible with ics , but currently only works on the modaco rom.

For those with Enterprise email/Exchange if you ever used Touchdown - might be good to go back.
Their light notifications work fine with Galaxy Nexus - set different notification colors for email, calendars and tasks
PS The Touchdown Tablet HD (Honeycomb) version actually works better though you need to pinch zoom out the email list to get the font smaller

Are you sure it's lightflow. If it is I'd be keen to work out what's causing it.
If anyone who had this issue is using lightflow, could they switch on file logging and then at least if it does happen you can mail to log to me and I'll take a look, but I've heard of others getting the sleep of death that have never installed the app.
I've been using light flow since I got my nexus last week, never had any issues. Great app!

Just posting this to see if anyone else has experienced the same problem (and hopefully was able to fix it).
I flashed BeastMOD II v4.0 last night (which I LOOVE because of the speed, smoothness, overall feel etc.) BUT, BLN will ONLY work with e-mails and not text messages. I've tried all kinds of different display and notification settings but for the life of me cannot get it to work with texts.
I even restored my phone to the rom I had prior (Juggs v3.7, which BLN worked perfectly for), then re-flashed BeastMOD whilst whiping everything twice just to be sure. Still the same exact result.
If anyone has ever experienced this before and knows why or how to fix it please post!
Thanks
EDIT: Tried flashing Bullet v2.9b and got the exact same results, so I'm thinking it might be an issue with the ROM.
I have used BLN on synergy for cm7 and stock, and with bullet. It works for everything but tstkmg for me but I use chompsms and it have its own screen wake quick reply option that I use.

You are right. It appears to be a rom issue. I have the same problem as you.

At least i'm not the only one lol. I actually restored an older backup (Juggs v 3.69) and got everything working perfectly...reflashed BeastMOD and same thing, works for emails only. Sucks.
But overall, this ROM so outperformes all others I'm actually willing to go without the BLN working correctly....but am seriously WAITING FORTHE FIX ;-)

I third your results. BLN had issues for me too with Beastmod. Plus I had Gmail push issues which were later answered after going back to Juggernaut 3.7 which is flawless, but a bit laggy at times for me. It could be just suffering the usual symptoms of any Operating System we have all seen with Windows OS variants on PC's....just getting a bit slower and flakey with time. NOT here to bash any ROM. Overall, it's been the most stable of all ROMs I have used as well as the most satisfying from the get go with installing.
Bln has to do with the kernel not the Rom and most kernels have posted that it doesn't work with stock sms I've been using go sms pro with jugs 3.7 along with bullet 2.9 and haven't had any issues also remember that on most apps you have to activate Bln in settings

Hm that was the interesting thing - I knew it was kernel related. However people in the thread said that BLN use to work for them on a different rom.. I will try gosms when I get home, but BLN did use to work for me before.
I'll post this here just incase any of you miss the post:

Tried it, still failed.
I'm telling you, I have gotten BLN to work flawlessly with several other ROM's/Kernels, but NOTHING, no Kernel or settings will allow BLN to work correctly with text messages with this ROM. There's something in the coding that's preventing it.
I noticed that no matter what my settings are, whenever I receive a text message (if notifications are set to allow screen on) the screen always turns on for exactly 6 seconds, then turns off and nothing else happens no matter what the settings are. So something in the ROM is dictating the screen on time for SMS, and is overriding anything what ANY Kernel says, and is probably also overriding something that needs to be changed for BLN to work correctly.
And if I install a 3rd party SMS app that prevents the screen from turning on (or change the settings with the stock SMS app), the screen will stay off when I receive a SMS message, and the back light buttons will never turn on, so that's even worse lol.
Just my guess.
I'm still using beast mod 3.6, but it works very well with 3rd party apps such as go sms. It activates the capacitive buttons on all texts. It also will allow popup and screen on from the settings, i just don't like this as it can hurt my battery life with the screen on. I'd rather it just give me a notification tone and light up the capacitive buttons.

Yeah, I'm sure it works on BeastMOD v3.6 (just like how it works on all other ROMs and Kernels that supposedly support BLN), but the fact that it doesn't on v4.0 sucks. It's definitely a ROM issue. I just hope the developer addresses it with the next release since I really like the speed and feel of the ROM overall.

Really? Are you sure you turned the stock messaging app's notification feature off? His work-around worked flawlessly with me. It also stopped turning on my stupid screen when I receive a text which saves a bit of juice lol.

Yup, when I turn the stock one off the screen never lights when I receive a text. Then if I install a 3rd party app the screen may or may not turn on (whatever setting I choose) but BLN will never work regardless of what setting I choose.
There's something in the ROM that's f'ing with BLN with my phone. I wish I knew what it was. All other ROM's/Kernels are fine, just this one has issues.
this may be a long shot, but did u disable the setting to force all notifications through the 3rd party SMS app?? try go SMS again, but go into settings-recieve settings- make sure "disable other message notification" is unchecked.

Weird, I haven't tried Go SMS because I like the stock messaging app. Exactly what I did (Following the person's post) was:
1. Go into stock messaging app settings -> Uncheck notifications.
2. Download SMS Popup from the market: https://market.android.com/details?id=net.everythingandroid.smspopup&hl=en
3. In SMS Popup Settings -> Enable SMS Popup.
In their Additional settings: Turned quick reply off.
In their Notification settings: Check Enable Notifications, and Check blink LED.
4. Went into BLN Control and made sure BLN was enabled.
Voila it worked for me. Hope it helps. I understand your fustration .

We were talking about BeastMod which uses Synergy Kernel as stock. Correct me if I'm wrong but Bullet Kernel HAS Bln support while Synergy does NOT, hence the reason we were stating it's a ROM issue. I installed bullet kernel on Beastmod. Bln did not function. I have the market app Pro version of BLN. Yes, it works with Juggernaut. And yes, I also ONLY use GoSms Pro. So, it is a ROM issue I believe wrt Bln not working. But the Beastmod Co-OP told me on their thread they only recommend using Synergy with Beastmod and not Bullet. So this issue is moot I would assume.
EDIT: I have not specifically tried those extra settings mentioned. So I will have to try a fresh install with those specific settings mentioned. But are you guys that state Beastmod 4.0 works with Bln and Go SMS Pro...using Bullet kernel instead of Synergy? At least I hope that's the case.
Edit: MY BAD>>>>>>>>Synergy does have BLN support. I will go sit in my corner so please don't holler back I can't read Back to reinstalling BeastMod 4 and using settings with GoSMS and turning off stated settings etc in stock message app.

I think the whole issue with bln is that both the stock messaging app, and gosms stock settings both force sms notifications to go through those programs. bln has to be able to read the notifications. enable other programs to have access to the notifications, and you'll be good.

I have tried every method posted in this thread AT LEAST TWICE, and they never work with this ROM (at least for text messages.....e-mails WILL trigger BLN, but not SMS messages for a still unknown reason). These methods work with other ROM/Kernel combos, BUT NOT THIS ONE.

I hear what you're saying,but I'm telling you that I'm on 4.0 with the included kernel, and its working perfectly for me.
The new message notification LED on my (new) LTE Gnex only flashes once or twice, just when the phone boots up. Doesn't flash when a new message arrives. I've tried disabling it, and re-enabling it in settings, but it just does not work. This does not seem normal, and I'm wondering if I need to return the phone, which I really don't want to do. I've already unlocked the bootloader and rooted, but still running the stock ROM.

Have you tried Light Flow from the Market?
This has worked with the stock ROM.
I personally use Trackball Alert Pro - MoDaCo ROM has suppport for this.
Just tried calling myself, and hung up. The LED isn't lighting up. But I have seen it blink for emails at least. Hmm.. maybe try light flow.

Have not tried any 3rd party apps, yet. First I wanted to know if there was a problem with my phone, or if this is "just" a bug. If others have this same problem, then I'll try a 3rd party solution. Thanks for the feedback.
Tried the same thing, called myself and sent messages with no led notification. Thought my led was broken but then installed light flow and it worked no problems.
Not sure how it was supposed to work stock but could not get it to work at all without a 3rd party app.
Without the app, the only option I could fight was pulse notifications which I tried turning on and rebooting but it never seemed to work.

Just tried light flow. When I tried the "test LED" function, my phone would no wake from sleep. Also got sleep of death when I got an email. Had to do a battery pull. Any solution for this?
I looked at Trackball Alert and it requires Paul's ROM, which I'm not ready to try (yet).
I noticed it doesn't light up when it's charging either. Is this normal behavior?
From what I've seen so far the stock light is a hit and miss for me. Only time will tell how they will improve this.

Well its not your phone....The light stock is stupid I have no idea why you would include a light that only flashes random times and only in white.....

Just bite the bullet an flash ARHD or Paul's rom they both support Trackball notification and it works very well!!

Yep. Probably don't have/use most apps that support it for me to notice it all the time.
I've been having the same trouble. Haven't seen the light in days.
I went back and revisited some of my settings. I had turned on the setting for the screen to "stay awake while charging." I unchecked it, and now my light is working again.
Now, it only ever comes on when the screen is off to begin with. It won't come on if the notification happens while it's already on.
But at least the light comes on when the screen is off now!
(And I really wish the blink rate was higher. You can look at it for several seconds between blinks, and think there's nothing and look away.)
So the change I made to the settings seems to have fixed the light issue. I have been properly getting notifications since I turned off the keep awake. Seems like an easy enough to fix bug as long as they know about it.
But now what I want is a faster blink rate. One second on out of every 6 or 7 seconds is easy to miss.
Hey guys. Im having a problem with Light Flow. Im sure a lot of you use it? Although i couldnt find many threads on it. I even searched Google for this issue. So hopefully you guys can help.
Anyways im using Light Flow 3.0.2
And it works great but a lot of the time ill get a notificiation (screen will be off) the LED will flash its appropreate color. Ill check the notification (Lets say Gmail) read the email, delete the email, respond to the email w/e and turn the screen off again.
Then the LED will still be flashing for that notification even though i checked it and erased it.
The only way i have found to fix this other then reboot ofcourse is to go into Light Flow > Notifications. I notice when i do this LightFlow gets granted Superuser then i exit turn screen off and all is good.
Any ideas?

Did you make sure you don't have any other app notifications that have the same color?
Are you using any task killers or killing the app with the hold of back button?
Same issue here, disabled it until it gets an update to support JB.

Developer is aware of the issue already. He's working on a fix.

It's in the known issues for jelly bean. Something to do with the accessibility.

for me
when removed the app it disabled the vibration for new sms, gmail ..etc
tried everything without success (disabled settings & re-enable it, rebooting, ...etc), so I didn't bother to install it again after a factory reset (stock ICS by the way)
if anyone had the same problem and knew how to correct it let me know.
delete me please
There is a lightflow widget that clears all lightflow notifications when tapped.
I am just using that while waiting for a fix (which couldn't come soon enough).
FYI guys with JB 4.1.1 I got light flow to work 100%

The missed call notification does not go away even after entering the app, that is the dialer.

So i found out a little more.
So for me before 4.1.1 SMS was my biggest issue that notification would never go away unless i manually cleared it with the app or the widget.
I noticed that is was working on 4.1.1 after i went to accessibility and turned it off and then on again for Lightflow. after i did this i noticed that the notification for SMS was clearing on its own. So i thought it was all good.
UNTIL
I reset/tuned off the phone and received another txt. The notification would not clear on its own. So i was messing around with it and went back to accessibility and turned it off and on again and now the SMS notification clears itself until the next reset of the phone.
Hope it works for you guys. I dont mind toggling a setting until an update comes out.
lightflow issues not fixed on 4.1.1 derp :silly:
Gtalk and Gmail both clear correctly. Gonna see how it is with SMS and Missed Call when I get one of those.
uh. what's up with the title of this thread?
How about on 4.1? Is it playing nice on there? A ToroPlus GNex here...I will buy it if yes
I just downloaded the lite to try it. I feel like its hit or miss. Too much customization and easy to get lost. For example, right now, I have two different notifications going off for like SMS and email. Because within the SMS and email app themselves I've defined a notification sound and then within light flow settings you can define a sound. So I get x2. I think the trick may be to go into the app settings themselves and set them to silent. Then use light flow and set the sounds up. That seems to be the KEY. However, there is a learning curve it seems to this APP. Once you set it up, your good...but dam it takes awhile.
Colors are working good though, but the dismissal of notification via "opening the app" dont work worth crap. You have to set it to "on screen" dismissal
Plus I found myself disabling and re-nabling the app from withing settings --> Accessibility often.

No, I was fine on 4.0.4 but when i went to 4.1 it stopped working, I'm now on 4.1.1 and it's still not working.
It is a fantastic app though, I'm sure the developer will update the app eventually to work with 4.1.1.
