[APP]Lg touch LED notifications - LG Optimus Me P350

Hey guys i found this app using which we can use our touch buttons as LED notifications
It's available for free from Google play store
Description from play store:
Touch LED Notifications
This application uses the touch LED buttons to show if there is any missed notifications by turning them on and off. It is enabled by default and will autostart on boot but has to be run once after installation to start the service.
Supported devices:
* LG Optimus 2X/T-Mobile G2X/Star (P990/P999/SU660)
* LG Optimus Black (P970)
* LG Optimus 3D (P920)
* LG Nitro (P930)
* LG Optimus ME (P350)
* LG Marquee (LS855)
* LG Prada 3.0 (P940)
Other phones might also work if they're similar to one of the supported devices. Even though a device is listed above your rate of success may vary depending on ROM and/or if you require root. It may also not work perfectly due to various limitations of the phone.
If you get a message about rooting, you have to root your device to get LED notifications to work. This is not something I've chosen to do, it is because the devices does not have the correct permissions and root is needed to correct them. If you wish to root your device you're doing so at your own risk.
Translations of the app is very welcome. If you wish to translate please drop me an e-mail and I will give you the link to the strings.xml-file.
Gmail 2.3.5+ no longer works with the built-in Gmail-check. To get it to work again Gmail has to be disabled in Notifications and then added as a monitored activity (Notifications -> Monitored activites -> Gmail).
* It's recommended to open the app once after update to initialize new features and updates.
* If the latest version doesn't work then previous versions can be downloaded here: http://martinborjesson.com/android/
A note about Accessibility:
The app uses Accessibility to listen to notifications from other apps. When activating this feature a warning will be displayed, this warning is part of the Android-system and is displayed for every app that uses Accessibility. The warning can safely be ignored as the app only uses the notification-part and since the app does not require an Internet-connection no data can be sent away somewhere.
Some tips on how to increase the battery life when using the app:
Every time the LEDs has to change or when the vibrator or sound is started the device has to wake up for a short moment. More wake-ups results in decreased battery life. So to improve this set the Touch LED mode to Constant and optionally use a lower Touch LED brightness, for example 15-25%, and do not use vibration or sounds. Devices that can handle one LED at a time will only use one to increase battery life.
Thanks to
Paul at MoDaCo for sharing how to change the brightness on the touch LED buttons !
[email protected] for helping me with the LG Optimus Black implementation !
Everyone who helped me out with the app during its development !
Disclaimer: It is not known if using this app have any negative effect on the touch LEDs in the long term, so use at your own risk. By installing this you agree that I take no responsibility if anything happens to your device while using this app.

Glorious Praise For The HTC Flashlight App

Old news to most but I had to drop a post to give recognition. The HTC flashlight app saved my bacon last night, in the aftermath of the snow and ice storms that rolled through Ohio. It uses the LED instead of the screen. It gives various brightness levels. It is glorious and I thank you.
Notes for improvement: Ditch the cute flashlight icon and give me a variable brightness setting that uses as many brightness levels as you can pack into it. Allow dual or single LED use as desired or needed and allow infinite brightness within each LED.
It's not a flashlight app if it uses the damn screen and can't change brightness!!!
Nice to hear one actually uses the flash. LG doesn't offer anything like that. Well they've got a flashlight app, but it's just the screen. I had to use it last night working on our home PC. Worked ok, but not nearly as good as a camera flash one.
Agreed. Amongst all the hate HTC get, they sure know how to make a damn good Flashlight App. Been a life saver a few times for me too!
I am a drummer and can testify to the usefulness of the flashlight app on a dark stage when you have dropped the nut off the top of a cymbal stand!!!!
Unfortunately it does not work on the Mozart (says device not supported even though it is HTC) and they never bothered updating it.

There's noting to update. The Mozard has a Xenon flash - it can't be always-on. That's also the reason why there's no video light on the Mozart.
yeah, it's the exact same flashing light HTC Sense ROMs use (WinMo and Android), I've been using this flashlight app ever since the HD2 came out, and it works flawlessly in WP7 just as it does in other operating systems. I even have it set as a tile for easy access when I need it!

[Q] Tiny Flashlight

Anyone know why a simple app requires so many permissions and has SO many updates?
I uninstalled it...

Try TeslaLED. It has some features that don't work, but the simple LED flashlight works great for me.
Cool, I'll check it out. Thanks!
hmm, ive never had a problem with TF, but there are others. Be careful as its an easy target app for malware authors.
I got rid of Tesla LED after long running problems. Tiny Flashlight works well for me. Even stays on when screen goes off and locks. Tesla did not.
The dev for Tiny Flashlight explains all the permissions in the description of the app on the Android Market.
For me Tiny Flashlight beats the pants off Tesla LED on my Epic.

I'm the developer of Tiny Flashlight. Sorry for the constant updates. I'm improving the app with every update, but usually not all devices are affected and that's why you won't see new features or fixes on your device. For example, in the latest update I've added support for variable led brightness on most new HTC devices (and this doesn't affect Epic 4G).
At the end of this week I'll release a new version which will fix a long standing bug, which makes the app freeze on some devices like LG Thrill 4G, and this again won't affect Epic 4G, but it's very important to be released for the LG Thrill users.
I'm trying to keep the updates as low as possible (currently 3-4 per month), but I can't promise to lower this number more (at least not in the next couple of months), because I'm preparing some big improvements, which I want to push in several small steps - this helps track problems faster and the fixes are ready for the next update.
All this makes Tiny Flashlight one of the higher-quality apps on the Android Market.
For every update there is a detailed changes log, which you can see before updating - again in the android market app. Here's the changes log for the latest version (v3.9.9.13):
* Fixed widget size on Android 4.0
* Widget didn't start the light every time on Galaxy Nexus. This is fixed
* Fixed screen flicker on Galaxy Nexus after pressing the widget
* Added variable led brightness on almost all HTC devices
* Added support for XENON based devices (using the auto-focus LED) - Motorola XT701, XT711, XT720 and added Strobe Light support
* Color and Bulb lights brightness is now persistent
* Fixed main interface frame on Android 4.0
As for the permissions - I'm pasting you the relevant part from the app description:
Flashlight Permissions:
============
Why Tiny Flashlight needs so many permissions and how are they used:
* TAKE PICTURES AND VIDEOS (CAMERA permission)
- In order to start the camera led (flash) on some devices, Tiny Flashlight has to use a small part of the camera hardware and it needs this permission. Don't worry, I'm not taking any pictures or videos without your permission. Tiny Flashlight is just accessing the camera led (flash).
* CONTROL FLASH LIGHT
- This is the old method of accessing the camera flash on Android 1.5 and 1.6.
*** As you know, Tiny Flashlight is free, but also is one of the best supported apps on the Android Market. Currently, this is the only app that supports almost all devices with camera led (flash) and fully supports all versions of Android (1.5, 1.6, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 3.0). This takes huge amounts of time and effort and in order for Tiny Flashlight to remain the best flashlight on the market, I have to use ads inside it.
The following permissions are required by Google's own ad provider (Admob) and Millennial Media (the biggest independent ad network). Both are respected industry leaders.
* INTERNET
- Used to load ad info from their servers. Nothing more.
* MODIFY/DELETE USB STORAGE
- Temporary caches some ads on your SD Card. This method is used to save bandwidth.
* READ PHONE STATE AND IDENTITY
- Some Motorola devices have factory bugs. These devices don't have unique IDs and this became a problem for ad networks, because they can't function without it. There is a workaround for this problem by using the PHONE IDENTITY permission. This permission is used only for getting a unique id. Nothing more.
Tiny flashlight has been the best since the epic came out
It it has just got better and better i love all the light options and love the strobe light lol, (beware tho make sure u ask someone if they have seizures cause it will cause one LOL)

[App] Wave Control - Control your phone without even touching it

Wave Control uses the proximity sensor to detect hand gestures to control music playback (free version) and more (paid version).
Update (10/11/2012): Half of proceeds from app sales from October will be donated to Breast Cancer Research
More Info Here
Update (9/7/2012): New Tasker Support for changing profiles in Wave Control!
I developed this originally on the Note and luckily it happened to have one of the best proximity sensors (at least for my uses). Now I've moved on to the SGSIII and it works just as well! Works best on the SGSIII, Note and Galaxy Nexus. Not so great on HTC phones and SGSII due to their particular sensors (much slower).
There are 4 basic gestures:
-Hover
-1 Wave
-2 Waves
-3 Waves
By default they correspond to Play/Pause, Next, Previous, Enable/Disable Controls respectively.
In the Pro version or upgraded free version, they can be remapped to any of those plus: Screen Toggle On/Off, Volume Up, Volume Down, Launch Google Voice Search, Alt Play/Pause (for MX Video Player), and do nothing.
Popular uses are:
When driving, don't have to take your eyes off the road to try to hit a button
When your hands are dirty so you don't smear crap all over your phone like when cooking or working on car
While on the computer, you don't have to bother waking the phone to change the song (works even when the screen is off)
I'd like to see what you guys think of it. If you have any suggestions for new features or any feedback, I'd love to hear it.
Google Play Store Links:
Free Version
Pro Version
I just put out a new version, 2.0 that was developed on the SGSIII. It adds nifty action bar navigation and an upgrade store for the free version.
Here are some youtube videos of it in action (soon to be updated with the latest version and star the SGSIII )
I've got threads open in the Note and Galaxy Nexus forums as well. I'm fine tuning features for these phones first then will push more publicly.
Coming Soon:

It's innovation like this which win's awards my friend.
What can the sensor actually pick up? I'm thinking minority report here
If swipe left and right can be mapped to a gesture and hover or a quick left right for select then you could look through your phone freehand.
Great idea m8.
An Excelent idea.Very nice!
But can you tell us about battery consumption?
Unlocking,opening media player,pressing next is annoying.
i test it now,it's ok,but why the app need all that permissions ?

I wish I could detect direction. I tried using both the proximity sensor and the light sensor together but the light sensor was too slow and always fired after the proximity sensor so I couldn't interpret direction.
I want to use the front cam but will need some really efficient code (probably OpenCL) so it doesn't kill the battery.

It's about on the order of what the music player uses or a bit less. I do suggest exiting the app fully if you won't be using it for awhile. Running the sensor endlessly does use power. Not that much but some.

This sounded like a great idea.
installed the pro version again and used root explorer to try and find the apk file with the aim of setting permissions.
expected to find the apk in mnt/system/app but cant find the file. what am I doing wrong.

Settled over email.
I think I'll need to add a link for the Pro version in the Upgrades tab. This is my first shot at in-app purchases and I still need to support the existing Pro version.
Great appS!!! Working great on my pebble blue..^^ Still testing on battery usage. Report again tmr..
Samsung galaxy S3, OMEGA V6, Franco kernel V6...perfect!!!
Working on my note. Sorry i know its the s3 forum... But is there a way to pick up phone calls while its ringing... Sorry if this has been answered
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
To answer calls: turn on Call Controls in Settings and when the phone is ringing two waves is set to answer.
I've got it on my to do list to make it customizable. But for now Call Controls are fixed to one and two waves.
Sent from my GT-I9300T using XDA
Testing the free version on my s2 and works great! Awesome work man! Can't wait for "launch any app" option! Think I'll be buying this... Gonna see how battery behaves with this on!

Light Flow Status [UPDATED 8/18]

Since the threads have been split AGAIN thought I would pop in here and post a thread for those of you that were following the progress on getting "Light Flow" to work on the US GSIII (or in our case the T-Mo GSIII)
The last notes on the developers blog are
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
25 July 2012 - it looks like it should arrive with me Friday or Saturday this week
(He's been waiting for a US GSIII, ATT in this case, to figure out whats messed up)
29 July 2012 - I've now got the AT&T S3 and I'm making good progress for users with root access
30 July 2012 - Just to add a little to yesterdays comment. With root access I'm controlling the led in the correct color. You don't get the always on green led and you can set different flash speeds. At the moment the issues are around the UI part of the app hanging in a few places for up to 30 seconds and also everything gets reset at reboot time until I go back into the app and reset some new settings again. I'm not too worried about either as the main thing is that the led control itself is working. I'm pretty sure root will be required for any solution though (unless Samsung fix the actual driver to accept the alpha channels - which is where the problem stems from). I did find rooting to be a pretty simple process and it only took around 10 minutes.
31 July 2012 - The boot issues have now been resolved (and may also fix startup errors that others were having with other phones).
I've read the few comments regarding root down below . I will continue to look for a solution that doesn't require Samsung but as they are transposing their data incorrectly it may be totally impossible to control directly via android without root. When not rooted we can only send data through the android API so unless shoe-horning some data into the led parts of the API manage to pass through the correct values I'll be pretty much stuck unless Samsung fix things. Trust me, I want it to work for non-rooted users too. My own Galaxy nexus (which is my main phone) isn't even rooted!
1 August 2012 - App sent to beta testers.
2 August 2012 - Some problems noticed when running with the charger not being plugged in causing the led flashing to freeze for long periods of time (even if controlled outside of the app). Therefore it looks like only solid (non flashing) will be available, but using another method there's some control of flashing the same colors that Samsung do when they control the phone, so red, blue and pulsing blue - like on boot.
3 August 2012 - Beta seems to be working well so far
4 August 2012 - Working on a couple of bootup bugs for root version of app. Created sample app and letter to send to samsung regarding Talkback issue and incorrect color mapping on non-rooted phones.
5 August 2012 - still working on the bootup issues, making some progress but lots of changes to make everything boot smoothly. I know a lot of people are keen to beta test, but for the time being I'm being kept busy enough with the current beta testers and I'm therefore not pushing the app out to a wider audience until these issues are sorted otherwise it'll only slow me down trying to reply to everyone. Thanks
6 August 2012 - new beta out to testers to see if the bootup issues are resolved. They seem to be for me from the testing I've done so far.
7 August 2012 - boot issues seem to be resolved. Added in root control for international version of S3 (GT-I9300) so users can have the led on when the screen is on. Adding in some new app support while beta testing continues.
8 August 2012 - fix for GT-I9300 settings in root mode. Updated translations files for new languages added. Testing on non S3 phones. Added support for another 24 apps. Started to prepare build for next release to play store (this usually takes about 1-2 days depending on if any issues are identified in the "lite" version of the app as development is all done on the full version)
9 August 2012 - it's here. Version 3.0.5 of the app has just been uploaded to the market. It may take a few hours to show but you should start to see it soon. Note that it's still only adding functionality for rooted users for the time being.
10 August 2012 - ok, I think I've managed to get control of the LED for non rooted phones! It's a solid light, but it looks like the solid green light can be got rid of and then with some re-mapping of the incorrect color maps I may be able to get a real color list. I've had my phone running for about 9 hours now trying different combinations automatically at about 100 per second to come up with one that matches the command issued from the root version. It's also given me some insight into how the led color has been mapped incorrectly by Samsung. It'll be a solid LED as the flashing has similar problems to root, but if I work out a way for root to make it flash I should be able to do similar for non-rooted phones.
11 August 2012 - I've managed to get the app working on non rooted phones. There's no solid green light when you've no notifications and when you select a color from the color list it shows the correct color. I've a bit more testing to do, but things are looking good.
At the moment the differences between the rooted and non-rooted version are:
Rooted version: the led stays on when the screen is on, not rooted it goes off (which is standard android default functionality)
The blue pulse and 2 flash colors are not available as there's no way to access this control file
If you use the "custom led color" option, those colors will be messed up as there's no way I'll be able to write that to issue the correct colors as the color matrix is too messed up, but the main default 18 colors all show up fine and you can still "play" with custom colors, just don't expect to get the color you chose!
12 August 2012 - Not much to report today, non rooted test still going well and I've been benchmarking the battery usage ready for trying to add in the flashing code (plus trying to work out in my head the best way to tackle flashing). Sounds simple, but it's quite tricky.
13 August 2012 - started work on the flashing code. I've got the led flashing, but there's still quite a lot to do to get it working, stopping and starting through the different color cycles.
14 August 2012 - making good progress on the flashing. Yesterday the flash color was incorrect (that's now fixed) plus now I'm managing to mix different flash rates with solid leds for different notifications (e.g. charging solid, gmail flashing etc) and actually make the flashing services stop when they need to. A few occurances where the state gets mixed up, so the solid will be off instead of on when it is its turn to show, but improving.
15 August 2012 - got flashing for root mode working, changed the flash rates to be better for less battery drain, added notification regarding more battery drain for flashing speeds. Default app to "Always on" for notifcations on USA S3's. USA S3 detected on startup of the new version and automatically set to the correct mode to work (unless you are already running in root mode). Now I just need to look into the "sleep mode" settings as they are getting ignored for s3's. Hope to have a beta very soon - but please don't send me lots of requests yet!
16 August 2012 - though I'd come across a show stopper for non-rooted users as the default blue flashing led that Samsung provide for missed events was overriding our notification (which is different to other apps raising notifications that I'd already tested). This meant things like gmail and missed calls were killing the app's control and Samsung's default behavior took over (another non-standard way to do things - thanks Samsung). Finally after a lot of scratching my head and having a play around I found a way to kill their blue light by cancelling it shortly after it's been raised. It's a real hack, but seems to work. For those familiar with android it's using a bit of "reflection" to access bits of android not normally accessible. Phew, after a day of worry, I think things are back on track!
17 August 2012 - I've been building yesterdays hack into the app and making sure it doesn't affect the user if the screen is on when a notification comes in. Due to the inconsistent timing of the blue led starting to flash after a notification it's been quite tricky, but seems to be working quite well now.

For those of you who don't know, the color mapping is different for some reason between our GSIII and the International version which is why the colors are off if you are currently using light flow and also why the green light stays on when there is no notification
Its all being looked into by the developer, you can follow along at his blog here

Since the threads have been split AGAIN thought I would pop in here and post a thread for those of you that were following the progress on getting "Light Flow" to work on the US GSIII (or in our case the T-Mo GSIII)
The last notes on the developers blog are
25 July 2012 - it looks like it should arrive with me Friday or Saturday this week
(He's been waiting for a US GSIII, ATT in this case, to figure out whats messed up)
29 July 2012 - I've now got the AT&T S3 and I'm making good progress for users with root access

Pretty buggy for me, waiting for it to work better. Just using standard leds for now and noled app overnight so I don't have to disable the leds but s till notifications without bright blinking blue.
bump for updates
If only I can set led colors for separate Contacts text like go SMS let's me do. This is the only reason I want led control.

Even with 3.0.5 I'm still getting the green light staying on. If I disable the led for phone then none of the notifications work. Any body still having these problems after the update?

I'm not sure about free, but the paid app can do exactly that. Once in the app and in the notifications section, touch the contact + icon on the top right. You can choose colors for mms, SMS and missed call for that contact.

Are you rooted and do you have root mode enabled in the app? I'm rooted running a stock deodexed rom and the app is working perfectly for me. All colors are working and the app showed me the proper notifications about 100 times today.
The app is still buggy. When I have set a few notifications and some go off at the same time or I do t check my phone and they stack the colors don't flash Constantly or it freaks out and just shuts off. When I turn my screen of the red led flashes for no reason. I had to uninstall ill try it again I am a few weeks after the dev works out the kinks.

SOLVED Adaptive Brightness (dim/up/dn) -repeates Android 10 [Dev tools Pro]

It basically just keeps dimming then 2 seconds later it brightness to a satisfactory level, then dims again.
the only way is to have it set off (AB).
I have tried everything possible like apps to reset the proximity sensor, all the way to using a third party Adaptive Brightness application, but it's not 100% factory functional.
it keeps moving as attached.​
My solution was to use
"Assistant Pro for Android - Cleaner & Booster"
Assistant Pro for Android - Apps on Google Play
18 features to help you easily and efficiently manage your android phone.
play.google.com
And enable the adaptive brightness through it, where other applications would only work temporarily. This isn't a permanent fix because I do believe that there is an actual hardware issue.
I Tried different ROMs (in my case), and they all gave the same result as mentioned in the first post.
I have not had any issues since using this magnificent application. The is only the screenshot of what's mentioned (point) in the subject line.
Also plenty of tools in the app
Thanks @Didgeridoohan
