TeslaLED crashing - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Tesla works ok.. Except when the screen turns off
When it does, the LED flashes, and then after a few seconds the phone crashes and I have to hold the power button to get it to power back on

Yeah same issue here, I just set the option in TeslaLED to always keep the screen on.

Hi, I'm the dev of TeslaLED. I don't have a Galaxy S2 yet. Can some of you guys test this beta:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133393
Once installed if Auto isn't working well can you try manually setting the different LED Methods and seeing if any of them work well?
Thanks,

An App to turn off softkey backlight?

Anyone know of an app or mod that allows you to turn off the softkey backlight when you want? I read on my Vibrant at night & those extra bright softkey lights are hard on my eyes.
does not exist for any GALAXY S.

Really? I had Captivate with i9000 reoriented kernel and those softkeys were lighting only when pressed. So if you tap screen, softkeys do not light - perfect for night reading. Solution that I see - to find a i9000 reoriented kernel for vibrant.
I know there is one called "BLN" (Back light notification I think), the paid version lets you schedule when the lights turn on and off. I have mine scheduled to turn on at five in the morning and off at seven at night. But I think it's just for notifications and not turning them off completely.

Unfortunately BLN doesn't turn off lights completely. But we can ask developer to add such feature .
Anyway there should be some sort of hack for kernel to turn off those keys.

This is correct I know of no Galaxy phone that can do this either Sorry
This is disappointing. I know it can be done. Because there are plenty of members here that have turned off their BLN keys on accident by using SGS tools, and messing around with it.
So I know the script is there. Just, nobody has done it yet.
Dev,s anybody???
Come on- Let's do this.
Thanks
Bump. I would like this for the Samsung Fascinate. Anyone?
Have you try 'Keep the lights on' in market by Guardian Bob? When toggle Off, the lights stayed off when you tap the screen. Atleast it is for me, I'm on Bi-Winning rom.

It's not the app, it's the ROM. And they come back when you tap the keys directly. I think all 2.2.1 ROMs do this.
Same issue
The key lights really bother my eyes at night....has anyone figured out a solution to this problem yet......please help thanks

Is there a flashlight app that will keep the LED on after the screen goes off?

Is there a flashlight app/hack for the evo 3d that will keep the LED on after the screen goes off?
This and the keyboard are the two biggest things I miss from my My Touch Slide. :crying:
The Rom I'm using zr3dx has a flashlight built into quick settings that stays on when the screen is off. I don't know if it is included in Leedroid Tweaks or was added by Drop (the Rom dev) though.

If you are rooted, any room with flashlight from status bar pull, or if it has leedroidtweaks(comes with flashlight widget from status bar) you can turn the flashlight from there...hit the power button the flashlight is gonna turn off for a second, then turn back on, until you go back to the pull down settings and turn it off...
search for Flashlight on market, ive downloaded it and led stays on even when screen goes off
Thanks for the info. I'm glad to hear it's not a Evo 3D thing.

Every app I tried (20 or so) goes off when the screen is locked. Thus the post.
play DOT google DOT com/store/apps/details?id=com.devuni.flashlight&feature=search_result
You tried that, it works for me. or it could just be your Rom?

I agree. Maybe the ROM you are using goes into such a deep sleep that it shuts off the LED when you turn the screen off.
try this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=droid.pr.coolflashlightfree
I've tried a few, but always go back to Tesla led. It does flash off for a second when the screen shuts off, but it will come back and stay on.

Jelly Bean home key to illuminate screen also quits apps

Pretty simple question here, I recently installed the three UK JB update on my unbranded phone (got confused and wasn't concentrating, but anyway...) anniversary noticed that when the screen dims and turns off, if I press the home key to turn it back on in the short space of time that you get before it auto locks, then not only does the screen turn back on but it also backs out of the app I was reading. Is anyone else experiencing this? I never had this issue on ICS.
I am using smart stay, but this happens at times like when I'm reading in the dark or have the phone on my desk without my head directly over it.
Cheers in advance!

Yep, it's a Samsung bug that I guess they haven't fixed yet...
CyanogenMOD fixed the bug back when CM10 wasn't even usable on our devices
It's already fixed in the XXDLJ4 release.

I flashed about a week ago the official JB Update and the Bug was gone - till yesterday -.-
Now the Bug is back and i really don't know why. Is there any working solution? (execpt to reflash everything)
As far as I can see the bug depends on the lockscreen type and appears only, if you activated pattern locking and you have a relock delay.
still have it here, no special lock screen set up, just swipe to unlock

If you set SVoice to launch on home double press it should solve the issue of it backgrounding the app.
Yes this problem seems to appear when S-Voice is turned off. Which sucks cause I'd rather have google voice search.
I freeze Svoice in Titamium backup. And I have a problems with home button as some decribes in posts.
I was looking around for solution and I am happy that i finaly find answer here.
Many thanks for help with this S-Voice app
Samsung SVoice also introduces a delay to home button.

Capacitive buttons light always on

Hey guys
I just recently noticed that my Amaze capacitive buttons light has been staying on all the time. Even when I press the power button once and the screen turns off. Sometimes while the screen is off, the lights in the button seem to flicker. When I power off the phone completely, it turns off but the button lights stay on. Only when I take out the battery do the lights turn off. I tried using the screen filter app that can turn off the backlight for these buttons but it didn't help. This started happening after I flashed the CM10 nightly. When I switched to Speed Rom 8.0, the problem still continued. I installed Android Revolution Rom recently and the problem hasn't gone away. Any one know how I can solve this problem?
On speed rom 8.0 u have a tweak to turn them off completely or download kernel tuner and turn the capacitive light to 0%
I think there is also a modification you can make to turn them off in the build.prop I think. One of those scripts I can't remember which.

Already tried the mod and didn't work. Lights remain on. Even did the tweak that Speed Rom has and that didn't do anything either.
OK on speed rom 8.0 here is what you have to do click on energy tweaks, misc, capacitive light, always off, then click on reboot on top right corner check out the pics I made for u...

appreciate you going through all that work to get the screenshots, but I did exactly that in speed rom and it didn't do anything to the lights. I am running Android Revolution Rom now though.

Home button LED on a little brother of our L9

Hey guys, I just saw today on a friend who got an LG phone which is L5 and when he receives sms or get a missed call his button is blinking in many different colours. Also, when he reboot the phone that LED is entertaining the holder which is pretty nice . My question is if we got something like this ? If yes with what app and if no which was the reason of breaking this feature off on a better phone than this one ? I left a link below to understand better what I mean.

LE: I found that is the 2nd generation and they got button LED allerts. Perhaps is auto solved.
Wait, the l5 2 has button LED notifications and the l9 doesn't? That sucks, it looks so neat. Its a shame about its 512 mb of ram though.
well read the later edit. the l9 2 will have too that home button led notification.

L9 II dont have a physical home button , so maybe it will be at some other location i Guess ( If at all its there )
It really sucks that LG is getting rid of the physical home button on their newer devices. I find it very useful, there's no accidental home button presses and you can use it to wake up your phone. Not to mention if they put the notification LED there it would look sweet.
I find that using the LG Nofications app works well enough, you can use the backlights of the soft keys as notification lights, they light up and slowly flash when you receive a message, gmail or miss a call. You can also use those key lights for charge status and there is an option to enable other apps to use the lights too e.g. Facebook

I believe he's refering to "LG Touch LED Notifications" - it's on Play Store and it's free.

Yeah, I tested it too but that home button LED is much much prettier and u must admit that and is very different when u use an app which wake up ur phone every "x" seconds for the notification alert and when that LED is hardware based on.
installed lg touch led but no led for home button...
Guys, our phone does not have a notification led on the home button. No app or rom will make the home button light up like that because we do not have the hardware for it.
