[REQ]Silient ringtone with turn upside down phone

hi guys,
i've switched from GS2 to GN and miss the integrated function to mute the sound just put face down the phone
there is an app on market that do the same thing?
thanks!

Very easy to do with Tasker. Costs a bit though, but there's a lot you can do with it.

yes very easy but not the same implementation
with taker i need to do two profile to put/remove silent based on device position
the implementation on samsung touchwiz/htc sense make phone silent only with one motion and only when you do it. I think that with Tasker, if I accidentally put phone on face down (and not voluntary) i'll lost ringtone..

I haven't tested it but this is one choice

yea you can do it without tasker without randomly silencing the ringtone, you can set it to only work when your phone is ringing

Charging LED app for the Galaxy Nexus

I found an app in the market that uses the LED for charging! All I can say is awesome. Red while charging and blue when charged. This should be standard on the Gnex. Works great!

Do you experienced sth about the battery?
If not i'll just try it

You could also try a program called lightflow which does all of that and more. There is a free version too.

I use Lightflow Pro and works very good on my Gnex. I can choice led color, blinking speed and duration of every notification for all programs (like Handcent SMS, WhatsApp, Gmail...). Simply the best.

Worth a go simple is the best if it doesn't use a lot of power

Yea light flow solves all led needs

So I gave it a go and it does what it says it does requires no permissions that you would find odd (only asks for vibrate because it has an option to vibrate when charged) so yeah if you don't want all the flash and extra that comes with lightflow I'd say give it a go

Awesome

Lightflow is the way to go

Any data on how much extra battery lightflow consumes to run its service even in standby?

Probably not much since it should only awaken the phone when you receive a notification but should lie dormant until then or run in the background like Google services.

Yeah my only gripe with Lightflow is even after you dismiss an alert it stills keep popping up from time to time.

I have this too. Found I actually have to open my mail or SMS to make it stop even if I clear the notification.

Maybe because you have it set to dismiss on app open?... set it to screen on - dismiss. I made the same mistake when I first got it... its an awesome app! I Love setting up the colors lol

full charge notification?

It's funny when I search around the forums for it, everyone wanted to disable it, but I actually want it. I'm currently running AOKP Build 3 and I was wondering if there was an option for this.
Is there an app for it?
Other people were complaining about how the full charge notification wakes them up in the middle of the night. Were they planning to charge overnight and overcharge? Isn't this bad for the phone or was it just a myth?

Use tasker and create a profile in it for full charge notification. It is quite easy.

Tasker is awesome, but it's a pretty heavy app for a simple "done charging" notification. If no one has put together an app for this, they should.

Honestly.....

Why does Google do such weird things all the time? I know other people have to think the same thing about why they design an OS the way they do. For instance clicking the clock in the status bar takes u to time settings instead of clock or calendar(when we all have auto time enabled)? And I'm pretty sure(at least I hope) its a bug, but the stupid new camera rotation is beyond dumb. And why they took the so much fun camera effects out, I may never know... I do love Google but just question their Dev team sometimes... sometimes a lot
But that is why we have these wonderful devs across the forums. I can't thank you guys/gals enough!!!!

I have to ask, why would you need to click on a clock to take you to another clock?

LOL Maybe he means alarm settings which is inside clock app
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

The slow camera rotation is intentional. The Android Dev team spoke about it. As for camera effects, I don't know how many people actually used them. Sure, Mac users seem to use them quite a bit, but I don't know about Android users.

Yea I meant alarms.. Lol. Or even clock app would be smart
Why on EARTH would u want camera lag when changing the phone orientation... Then u end up missing Ur shot!
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

The rotation lag doesn't bug me too much. It usually takes a second or less to rotate. I usually know what orientation I want my picture to be, so I'll press the camera app in that orientation.

Just lock rotation when you want to use your camera, if you are using a rom with toggle rotation it wont be that hard to press a toggle.
I personally always disabled rotation, and only enabled it when i want to use it.

Another thing that bothers me is app drawer. the black background is still stuck in the Gingerbread era.

If I lock rotation to to a pic in landscape its going to take the picture in portrait but I guess u could just rotate it in the gallery... But still useless as fuhk. I'd rather deal with the lag of swiping to my pictures than the actual camera itself... Come one Google... You're better than this... Back to 4.1 camera I am

IMO the black background is nice to quickly identify icons. U know u can always use third party launchers to change that..

Daydream in 4.2

Maybe a dumb question,
But how can daydream in 4.2 be not bad for the screen?
Wouldn't it burn out the screen much faster than not using it?
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium

Absolutely, which is why there are available options such as setting it to only enter daydream mode when docked or charging.

My apologies, I read your statement as it being detrimental to battery.

i wouldnt worry about it messing up the screen unless u expect to keep the phone for the next 5 years, which i highly doubt. i would worry more about battery life because the last time i tried daydream it was using more power than my phone was charging
