New post images

There seem to be new icons for posts and I was wondering where they were from and when they were added. I only just noticed them!
This isn't really a question just more of a discussion sort of topic.

New Icons
We added them just for fun--many of them seemed more practical than what was there before. Also, we're preparing for the new theme coming soon.

ne eta's for the new theme?

Haha just seen the new theme However it looks kind of retarded where on my 1366x768 (or whatever) display it has a horizontal scroll wheel.
EDIT: Also, put the link to user cp back lol

I really hope that xda wont look a rainbow someday

Lol, I tried the 2013 beta as well and it didn't work particularly well, although I did like the colour scheme and the general UI of it.
Also, I can't tell whether the icon I'm using for the title of this post is supposed to be a generic smartphone, or is based on the iPhone

I dunno, the buttons at the top do look really too big and it reminds me of your average forum tbh

but hw did u all get to use tht theme?.....i see theres no option in mine

Disable Touch Key Backlight on Google Edition

I hope someone can help me out with this (I guess most of my posts arent worth bothering with as they usually go untouched by anyone). I'm trying to figure out a way to disable the touch button backlight on a Google Edition ROM. I have been searching for an answer since the Google Edition hit. All I can ever find is how to disable on GSIII ROMs (non ge). If anyone can please help me out I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!

Screen Filter is an app that can disable the backlight of the softkeys. Set it to auto-start at boot and you should be good. I know its not a direct fix but its a low impact app that shouldnt effect battery life or operation.

Seems to work for me. Did it dim the screen at all (thats its main function)? Did you see the check box "enable softkey back light" (uncheck it) at the bottom of the app ui?

Yes, it did dim the screen, but if i uncheck the enable softkey back light, anytime I touch the screen the backlights still come on. Are you on a G.E. rom? I am currently on Infamouse G.E.

No im not. I am on AOSP (Slim Bean) though.

There are options to do this in AOKP and CM roms. Anybody know how those builds pull it off?

Give me a minute to shower and I'll write you an app. All you have to do is install my app, reboot, grant it root access, and profit.

Okay i am having troubles setting it to off on boot. But here is a "toggle" version of it where you can toggle them on or off. Will try and fix the boot issue tomorrow.

SWEEET!!! Works like a charm thanks dude! Like I said, I've been searching for this forever! I know that many others have been searching for this, perhaps you should make a thread in the mods section.

Go HERE i fixed the boot issue. I was way too tired last night xD missed something really simple lol

[Mod] Restore Power Saver

If you are stock Sense ROM and you want power saver in the toggles use a root explorer and go to:
system/customize/CID/default.xml
Carefully remove:
<item name="def_hide_ui_user_powersaver">1</item>
<item name="def_hide_ui_powersaver_connectivity">1</item>
reboot
I made a backup first. Not responsible if this jacks up your phone.
Pull down the notification bar, click on the toggles and there it is, power save.

You could also probably put a 0 where the 1 is to turn hide off.

I sure wouldn't want to steal anyone's thunder, Andy. Could you point me to his post? I don't see how I missed it, I've been crawling the Verizon HTC One forum since this thing was released. I kept seeing the "Verizon took out Battery Saver, here's Qualcomm's solution: Snapdragon™ BatteryGuru" floating to the top in the themes and apps, so I thought I'd post this mod.
If it is sure enough a dupe, mods please delete.

oh I'm sorry brother, I didn't mean to make it seem like you were stealing thunder, he posted it in my thread, I didn't realize this was a how-to, sorry!!!
another way to do this MOD, I find it better as you don't have to delete anything
<item name="def_hide_ui_user_powersaver">1</item>
change to
<item name="def_hide_ui_user_powersaver">0</item>
you will find the power saver in settings now

Thanks, man. These things are toys to me, a sometimes relaxing hobby, my platform is mainly Windows. If this were a batch file I'd just REM in front of a line I wanted to ignore. Wasn't sure what changing something would do. I made sure I had a current backup before I pulled the trigger.

I thought the default.xml file is only read once at the first initial start of the rom only; meaning only after you do a factory reset on the device?

Dunno. I know after the mod and a reboot, power save showed up in the toggles and seems to work. When I click it, screen dims for instance. If you touch the dots, you get the screen with the three choices, CPU power, display, and vibration. All seem to work. You don't see it in settings and you don't see the big ugly icon in the notification bar, but I like this better.

I have tried changing the value as suggested by Andy and deleting the settings, and it will not show for me at all... the only thing i have done was debloat the stock odex rom and hide the location icon, that's as far as mods that i have done to date

[BLN][APP][WORKİNG LİKE A CHARM!!!] BLN feature for galaxy w

hi guys!
our kernels arent supporting this awesome feature
because of that ı decided to search for how can we use this awesome feature in our phone
you can download the apk file from here:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/4cmiu9q7g4hk900/IUw3GUcHWD
NOTE: our device galaxy w is hdpi device so download the right apk
You do NOT need a kernel with BLN support to use this app , already our device has no BLN kernels
Running the app:
install and open the app. You should be greeted by a popup showing you a list of files. Select the most appropriate (you're looking for something that has a path such as "/sys/devices/platform/bcm21553-leds/leds/button-backlight/brightness). Once you're done, click "enable buttonled in accessibility" and do so. Come back to buttonled and tap the "test buttonled" button. If your capacitive buttons flash, you're good to go. Otherwise, you will need to select a different brightness file (use auto locate or do it manually).
You may also want to customize the options.

I will ask too. Have you tried? For me doesn't work as expected. Just "blink" the lcd and not the backlight when i receive notifications.

Yes, you can just disable it but whats the point of installing if you will just disable it? Anyways, this one is good for those who doesn't use messaging often as it will use the battery often too and the good thing is, it doesn't use the lcd but the capacitive buttons. Thanks for sharing though mate :good:

From main thread post #9
BLN "redirects" LED notifications to the capacitive buttons, ButtonLED tries to detect all notifications.

As you can see in the video, supposedly, only the capacitive buttons should light up not the LCD. Just check the settings

I downloaded, hdpi_jb for cm 10.2. It doesn't work I guess. Im choosing "auto locate", and it brings me 2 different path under the /sys. I tried to click them but nothing happened. Then I activated for missing call and unread message. Besides, I pressed test button, and nothing happened again, I mean there is no blinking. I activated buttonled in main settings panel too. Lastly I tried to restart phone... Guess what? It didn't work again..
Is there any solution bro?

Hi, I'm almost certain that this has come up before but I don't find the search in the mobile app very accessible/useful. But here it goes:
I have set up an avatar but I don't seem to see it in the app or on the web page (well I don't see any avatars there). Has this been deprecated or is the another reason?

Looks like you don't have one, go here(https://forum.xda-developers.com/profile.php?do=editavatar) and get an avatar, use set custom avatar > choose file > set the pic you wanna see as your avatar > hit save changes, good to go.
