Need a Notification Tweak for DCD ROM 3.12...
I am very happy to find that the ROM 3.12 makes the led on my VZW-6800 flash amber when I get a new text or missed call. Normal operation it is flashing green at all times. Beforehand I was going to post will this work on our PDA model:

Well I have enough of what I need from the led change with the ROM so part of that above is not needed. However there is one function I do miss that Kaiser Notifications tweak provides which all cell phones do...
If a called is missed, text received but not answered/reviewed, etc. etc. it will continue to beep similar to what a cell phone does and slowly expand beeping time out, for example beeps in 5 min, then beep in 10, then 30, 45, 60 then stop. This is so helpful because my PDA my be on my desk out of sight and I miss the initial call/text when it first arrived.
Is there a tweak for the HTC Mogul that can beep and continue to beep a notification in intervals after a missed call, text, message, etc.????
Someone please answer...thx!
i may be mistaken, but i believe it flashes indefinitely, until maybe a soft reset or something. i have the LED Killer cab from stroths that turns off that annoying green LED connection flashing (but no other LEDs, which is great), so the orange flashing is more noticeable. your device should flash orange every 4-5 seconds until you acknowledge the missed call or text. also, S2U2 notifies you of a missed call or text.
heres stroths cab incase you wanted it.
Thx for the info...with the rom 3.12 it flashes green until I acknowledge the message then goes back to the flashing green....
Now, I still need an tweak to the original question is there a way to make the phone beep in intervals when I miss a call, text, etc....???
Thx

Hi,
My XDA LED flashes green constantly when the telephone is switched on (I'm sure this in normal operation); I would guess that it flashes once every 5 seconds or so.
This morning I missed a telephone call and now the LED is flashing green, but at an increased rate - probably once every 3 seconds. I assumed that this indicates a missed call and went and cleared the missed call, checked for a new SMS and even email and my calendar; no notifications of any kind but the new flash rate is still there.
Also, is it possible to change the colour of the LED programatically when a call is missed etc (as it changes to orange when charging)? I have the settings such that a missed call, new email, SMS, etc will flash the LED.
Does anyone know what this means?
Thanks,
dont softreset make it go back to normal ?
my led flash every 5 sec
and when it's charging it's orange all the time
Mine flashers red when i have missed a call,
I got it by doing a RS upgrade and OS opgrade so not sure which on did it.
The change of LED from Green to RED for a missed call, SMS etc. is a user defined function. Go Start/Settings/Personal/Sounds & Notifications/Notifications and then scroll through the available items to configure in the 1.Select an Event scroll list.
You can set if you want the LED to blink (will auto change to RED) and for how long after the event that triggers it.

You're talking about the XDA2? The XDA might be different. Just a suggestion.
You can choose whether to flash the LED for a missed call on the XDA I as ednap has indicated.
I am not sure about the LED color change in XDA1 maybe on XDA2.
my trackball light keeps turning on and off, even in standby mode... is there a way to turn it off? or is this normal with the phone?
Hi,
The flashing trackball means you've had a message, email or a missed call. You get a little icon in the top left of your screen with a red squiggle on it. When you've turned your phone on, put your finger at the top of the screen and sweep downwards and your notification screen will appear. This should tell you what event, message or call you've missed, or is waiting for you.
Hope this helps. It is a bit confusing at first.
Sometimes, even after I've completed reading all my unread texts/checked missed calls list, the trackball remains flashing for a period of time (like say 10 minutes) and then stops flashing.
Only way to stop it it so bring down the notifications panel and hit 'clear notifications'.
Its a bug.
my mate with an orange one had this, but it turns out he had set up the MAIL application (NOT Gmail) for his hotmail and turned notifications off, so it flashed, but no top bar notification or sound was played.....

I would actually love the option to have the trackball light to pulse indefinitely until notifications are cleared. I reckon its damned sexy!
Just a shame it can't do multi-coloured light :<
Mine will keep blinking until i take down the notifications panel, even tough its clear and i.e message is read. But it "cures" the blinking instantly.
Mine is doing the same thing, blinking for roughly 10mins but dissapears if open and close notifications even if blank.
Is this a bug only in the Orange rom ?
Hi All,
long time reader, first time poster.
I can normally find the answer to any question I have by just looking though the forum or by googling it.
I've only had my HD2 a few months and am very pleased. After over 6 happy years using the XDA2 I thought it was time for a change.
Here's my question. On the XDA2 when a new text message arrived the screen backlight would come on for the set time & the red alert light would flash until I read the text.
With my HD2 this does not happen, so if I don't hear the text message audio alert I don't know I've got a new text.
Can I change my settings to make this happen on the HD2?
I'm on T-mobile, ROM 1.72.110.4, the only none standard thing about the phone is co0kie's home tab.
thanks in advance,
CJ
don't know about screen, but there is quite nice app to blink keypad on missed call, sms, email etc.: LeoExtendedNotifications
this app will let you turn on extended notifications. it does not work with vibration but audio works good. mite have to install it twice, just go to settings-sounds and notifications and turn on all your sounds as this resets them and turn what you want to repeat.

Hello XDA,
I'm fairly new so please excuse me if this has already been addressed or answered. I've searched but haven't found an answer so if there's a post on this, please reply with a link and I'll do the rest.
Okay, when I get a text message, the message alert goes off. But say I'm not with my phone, or in a loud environment, is there a way to get the phone to vibrate and play the alert when I get an sms? Also, is there a way to get the phone to periodically alert me when there is an unread text ? My last phone (GSM HTC Hero) had an LED that would flash. But this phone, the Samsung Vibrant, doesn't have an LED, and apparently no way of letting me know I missed a text message.
If not, is there an app that might provide that functionality?
Thanks in advanced for any reply.

Thank you.
This is exactly what I was looking for. If only it would occasionally vibrate, it would be perfect.
Thanks again.
Look in the Market for SMS Popup. It has a lot of notification options (custom vibrate patterns, notification icon), it can turn on the screen, and it can also remind you in time increments.
If you decide to go this route, be sure to turn off your default messaging notifications, so you dont get double.
Hi folks,
Is there any way to get decent notifications for messages on the Xperia Z2?
I'm used to old nokias and iphones. If I get a message it plays a sound (if the sound is on) and notifies me on screen. I don't need to turn on and unlock my phone to check if I have a missed message or a missed call.
So far on the Z2 I can just set the vibrate and tone, which is fine if I'm near the phone when I get the message, but if I'm not then I probably won't see it until I unlock the phone to do something, which could be hours later.
Can you set the Z2 to flash the led when there are missed calls/messages, or display something on the screen?
Usability-wise this is right up there with the motorola startac 130, which in my mind is still the most user unfriendly phone in the world.
If this can be done without a root/unlock it would be even better!
you have to activate the LED in setting -> display -> last line (as I can remember)
Try Frozen LED, a free app that let's you control the led notifications.
It let's you set colours and flashing speed for different apps.
Even better is you can set them by name. For example if my wife texts, messages or emails me the led flashes purple 4 times a second. Easy to spot.
