[Q] Turn off soft-key lights on MIUI ROM?

Well I want to disable the hardware key lights, or the soft-keys on the T989. I've tried searching Google, XDA, and everywhere I look the solution is either old, doesn't work, or is not ROM specific to MIUI. I'd really love to use MIUI, but the lights for the keys are stopping me from using it. Anyway, is there anyway (and don't mention Adjbrightness) I can turn these off whether it be manually or thru using an app?

I don't think this is rom-specific, but make a backup in case!

Thanks, but I don't want to turn them all off. I just want the lights to be shut off. I still want to retain functionality.

Ahhh gotcha. Look up the screen filter app. In the app, you can turn off the soft keys.

Yeah I tried it already when I first tried MIUI. It didnt work It's like no app works.

Nfc broke?

I don't think my nfc is working. I tried doing the Google wallet mod to work and failed a few times so I gave up on it and restored my backup.
I haven't messed with the nfc feature before that but tried with a co worker today and it wouldn't work.
I could share through wifi direct but not through nfc.
I watched a YouTube video on it to make sure I was doing it right, but I noticed I don't have an icon come up in notifications whenever I enable nfc through settings.
I am running the h20 lk8 room

might sound like a condescending question, but did you turn it on? it's off by default...

Lol. Yeah, I did.

Anyone?

try looking at the antenna, does it seat properly? does it have something blocking contact? it's it dirty? if none of these are the case seek warranty reimbursement or change of phone

Maybe I'll just unroot and try it and if it doesn't work then get a replacement

It's official, I'm going to unroot and try it. If it works I will root and try again. If not, I guess I'll take it back

Still doesn't work. Gonna go to sprint store and see if their demo phone has it working
Edit: their phone doesn't show the icon either. Didn't try using the nfc on it though
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app

I have used nfc many times and I never see any icob light up. The only time you get an icon is after you receive a file through s beam letting you know the transfer is complete. Your not supposed to see an icon just because nfc is enabled.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app

does it make the blurp sound when you touch it to another nfc phone? also remember unlike the S3 the CENTER of the phone is not the touch point its the top half. the range is EXTREMELY short (many times under 1 inch) so you do need to touch with "some" precision.
also make sure SBEAM is also turned on (thats what is uses to nfc file transfer)
you don't transfer via NFC you transfer via wifi direct which is linked to sbeam and nfc handles the "handshake" so BOTH nfc and sbeam need to be on to do a file swap

I think all share needs to be turned on. I just tried the other day.

Any way to disable this?

Go through the Settings, there's a tick box to disable this, even in the Stock LG ROM.

Which settings exactly? I didn't found anything in the sound setting...

What?

I'm no longer on stock, going from memory, but I remember that setting as it's one of the first things I turn off on every rom and version of android I've used.
Sent through the magic of an LG Optimus G (E971) running RootBox 4.2.2.

Only thing, well, it's not there! I've gone trough all the settings and there's no such thing in the canadian's LGOG.

No one?
On the build.prop maybe?

I also have this problem. and it does not like me very much. I do not have options. f180l

Here's my situation:
When I plug it in my car, I want the volume to be set to full. I've aranged that with an NFC and it "works".
But, when I use headphone, I don't want it to be set to full, or half, or whatever. I want it to stay the way it was. that's why I want to know if there's a place I can disable this option.
I'm rooted already, there must be a settings of a file somewhere I can edit for this :|

Please people. Did someone managed to solve this one? It is really pain in the neck.

If anyone is still interested I found a way to disable this.
You have to edit the build.prop file its path is /system/build.prop
Find the line which says
Code:
ro.lge.automaticvolumecontrol=true
and change it to
Code:
ro.lge.automaticvolumecontrol=false
.
Then reboot your phone.
Although the sound will stop turning down you will still get the notification

[Q] I have a few questions about my new Optimus G Pro

I recently upgraded to the LG Optimus G Pro and I love it and all, but while I'm at work when I get messages, my phone does all sorts of crazy things in my pocket because the screen comes on. I was wondering if there was a setting that I was looking over that would stop it from doing that? I'm trying not to root it because I know the bare minimum about rooting phones, but I did root my Galaxy s2 Skyrocket with youtube tutorials.

What things is it doing? I have the flip case and that keeps it from coming on and such. I think there is a pocket mode in the setting(I could be wrong about this though) check in display section or even under notifications.

Or go into the offending app that's causing you trouble and turn notifications off.

I think there are a few others who have complained about this as well. I don't have a texting plan (I use Google Voice), so I haven't ever experienced this. However, if there aren't any options in the phone settings, there may be another way.
I seem to be on this Tasker kick lately, so when someone has a problem that is related to the phone sensors or events, I tend to think "how can I fix this with Tasker?!" . As a result, I have made an app really quick using Tasker and have even included the project XML if you want to fiddle with it on your own. It does NOT require root. However, it will need you to install another free app called "Secure Settings" and give it administrator rights in your phone settings. All that the app does is wait for an incoming message and checks to see if the proximity sensor detects something in front of it. If it does, it turns the screen off. However, like I said, I don't have a texting plan, so I haven't had a chance to really test it. The app interface is just an "ON/OFF" button and a "Close" button. If it doesn't work, just turn it off or uninstall it. It is set to "OFF" when it is first installed.
Alternatively, you can play around with it if you get Tasker. I think there is still a trial period you can get if you aren't sure if you want to buy it. Let me know if it works or if you have any other questions.
I named the xml file as a .zip just to upload to xda. Just rename the file without the ".zip" at the end and then you can edit and/or import to Tasker.

This is easily fixed, just change the lockscreen to anything other than swipe and the phone will no longer accidentally become unlocked in your pocket

Had the same issue. Do a search for it. Lots of threads. Maybe try Magiclocker or Widgetlocker instead of the LG home screen.

Use pin lock. Solved for me.

Okay I just realised that there is an emergency call button on the screen when you have either pin, password or pattern unlock set. If you just have swipe, there is no emergency call button. Maybe this will help?

Double tap to wake/ unlock

Hi all, any of you using double tap to wake or any similar option to wake our nexus. The power is really awkwardly placed (at least i think so).
So.. What alternatives are u using to wake the screen??

I already tried this but i wasnt able to make it work. I am on miui v6 and so might be a kernel issue.
Anyways, which kernel do you use to make it work?

I was on stock kernel with supersu.
The program loaded a modded version of the stock.
I needed to restart a couple of times before it would do what I wanted to do. not everything in the program does work, however single touch and double touch wake up works.
Since I'm mounting the thing on the wall I went for single touch

M-kernel has this feature, try.

That is for the Nexus 7 2013 (flo/deb) not for the Nexus 7 2012 (grouper/tilapia)., although it is true that I had the exact implementation (code copied) in my kernel a while back. We let go of that mainly because it didn't work as well as we wanted it to without a wakelock being held (M-Kernel implemented this first and I copied it later; tells you a lot about me huh? ) I'll work on this in the near future, but no promises are being made.
