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
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
Edit: Remember you also have to have Bln control installed from the market

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.

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 .

Just tried it, didn't work...I think this is pretty much the same concept as using Go SMS. I think it's just the ROM, it's just not gonna happen with my phone until the ROM is fixed.

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.
I installed the kernel that supports BLN then I installed lite Rom version 5. Now I downloaded the BLN from the market and it said my Rom supports it. Unfortunately when I get an email the button lights don't go on when the phone is sleep. Same with Facebook notifications but it did work with Google talk. Someone sent me a message and it lit up quite nicely and stayed on till I woke up the phone. Anyone else experiencing this? I looked in Facebook and made sure on the app that I have light notification enabled but that did not help. I could not see any options from the email. I use the built in email from android not the Google one, the white one with the blue @ sign is the one I use. Am I not enabling something? Please help I would love this to work properly.

I second this. BLN works, but not consistently. I can't quite put my finger on why the performance varies. It works during sleep, but not always. It works while it's awake, but the screen is off, but also not always.
The only thing I may have found is that BLN works less often when I have the app triggering the notification open/active. So, when I'm in a chat and I put down my phone after a message, the screen will go off after 15 seconds. The other party may have replied within 20 seconds, but it does not always trigger BLN.

I wish it would just trigger on everything in the notification section. Unfortunately kind of useless if it is only sometimes getting triggered. What good is a notification light that does not work? Sorry, I know how hard some people have worked hard on this and I am not trying to upset anyone, just stating that it is not there yet to be reliable and fully functional.
I had the same issue previously on older versions of the lite kernel. I ended up flashing the kernel twice in a row and it seemed to fix the issue. I haven't seen issues since. Maybe upgrade to the most current lite kernel?

I couldn't get BLN Control to work with Handcent SMS so I downloaded Light Flow Lite, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rageconsulting.android.lightflowlite.
So far it has worked great and I haven't seen any of these intermittent issues. Maybe it will help one of you guys.
I have been setting up and play with this version for a couple of hours. I was fighting with Kies to recognize the phone and finally had to uninstall / reinstall again to get it to work. Makes no sense since I backed up before the update. Regardless i was able to recover my SMS and Phone logs which is the only thing I did not have backed up.
Here are the fixes that I have found so far:
1. Keyboard backlight of course.
2. Menu buttons light up now when they are touched. No longer have to touch screen (this was a big one for me).
3. SMS notifications work correctly although I had switched to SMS Pro to solve and I love it now.
4. Other notifications seem to be working ( calendar, alarm, etc.) but I was already using Volume Ace which fixed these as well.
5. Accuweather application rotates through my chosen cities now. I had not realized this was not working properly but always had to open the app to switch cities.
So far so good with some of the major items fixed. #2 was really bothering me for a long time since I was alway hunting for the right button in the dark.

So, there shall be no more GSM hangups? Than its a musthave
Still have not found a link to download any version of this update.
Someone had posted that GPS is fixed as well, something that I and a few others have been battling with - it taking minutes, if ever, locking a signal and location.
Can you confirm GPS ? Did you have issues w/ it before?
I'll be playing with this Rom this weekend.

I had seen people having problems with GPS but I never experienced that issue. Perhaps I just do not use it enough but when I use it as navigation while driving with the built in apps, the location was always correct for me. I used it out of state a few times and my location seemed to stay locked.
I was basically using the stock ROM LH2 before with just the Keyboard light fix. No Root or other changes except CWMR for backups.

Tethering and 4G Symbol
Hi,
ICS looks great for me, i flashed the Stock rom (I927UCLJ3_I927ATTLJ3_ATT) from samfirmware.com via ODIN, but there are still 2 problems.
First:
Is there any way to unlock USB Tethering and Mobil Hotspot?
Second:
What´s about the 4G Symbol, i´m living in Germany and on GB i saw the 3G or H (for HSDPA+) Symbol now its a 4G
I´m not sure if the 4G search process reduces the battery livetime wahtsoever, is it possible it switch it back?
Thx and have a nice Day
Oh. P.s. is ist possible to Root the Stock rom, and kill all the damn AT&T app´s and change the gps.conf?
Well, about the GSM and notification issues: they were not fixed. I noticed one thing, that this problem is repeatable if you use Alarm clock (stock or not - does not matter).
You wake up, diable the alarm, after that, if you dont touch and turn on your phone - it will hang in a while, until you turn it on. So the GSM/Wifi statuses change rapidly after turning on, time advance in status bar very fast.
This issue makes me miss calls and have repeatable notifications
Why does the name of my provider always appears in the notification bar?..

It is built into the software. You Can decode the Rom, and put in 14 toggles to remove it

GPS works for me, but I have to wait a lot for first time position fix.
Literom 0.8.4 finally has GPS fixed. I was cruising around with it, it was as accurate as my TomTom and fixed about as fast.
TheGreaterGood found the fix and embedded it .. huge thumbs up! Follow Instructions in the OP .. .I installed everything, literom kernel 1.1.1, stock modem and stock everything else, north america for gps config and after it fixed the first time, it started fixing right away in doors and out.. I'm very happy w/ this Rom.
Love the phone. I think the included dialer (phone app) can use some work. Does anyone have any recommendations on alternate dialer apps?
My favorite phone app is the Pixel Google Phone app. Does anyone have a script or directions on how to install it on a 5T?
You can try "True Phone". A very good dialer/contacts app. Manage well the dual sim.
Magisk+Google Dialer works like a charm for me. No problems whatsoever
Just to follow up my thread and logonaniket's suggestion, I used Google Dialer install zip from Oneplus 5 forum. Here is the link for others:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/themes/magisk-oneplus-5-google-dialer-contacts-t3640993
I flashed it using twrp and it works great. Sounds like logon used Magisk Module and it worked for him also.
Hi all,
my main problem with the OxygenOS Dialer is that the screen sometimes suddenly switches on, even when the phone is very close to my ear. Then I touch the screen with my ear and someting is triggered (Flash light on,...).
I installed 'Drupe' which is a bit of an overkill in my opinion., but the proximity sensor works fine there.
Did anybody try the flashable google dialer from here? https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/g-d-m-c-dpi-t3805463
Or should I use the Magisk module and anothe Google Phone version?
Any other good dialer recommendation is very welcome
Thanks

I tired that. Installed the module and disabled my contacts and Dailer but then when I was trying to call someone the Dailer screen would disappear while the call was going through. Means I could not end the call. Did you come across this by any chance?

I use it in the same way. Magisk plus disable the bulit in versions. It's works like a charm since around a month. Tomorrow the dailer crashed when on the call but when the call ended (from the other side) the app works fine again. Never faced any issues like that

I had the same issue when I switched to the Google Dialer. I found that I needed to make the Google Dialer the default phone app before disabling the system dialer... for some reason OmniRom didn't know what to do... phone would ring, but I got no screen to pick up.
The flashable zip i mentioned 4-5 posts ago seems to works fine for me on OxygenOs
Try ExDialer app. I'm using it for many years, on different phones. No mistakes with it!
Google Dialer, no root required.
True Phone

You can try "True Phone". A very good dialer/contacts app. Manage well the dual sim.

I second that. I have been using True Phone for a couple years, works great.
