Here's when the problem started then I'll explain it.
I was trying to install this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=751031
But when I did it said something about CM 3.0 doesn't support a certain kind of script so it aborted.
My problems:
When I turn on my phone it says that the Wi-Fi calling has stopped
I had it set so my phone would vibrate when I press the home bar buttons.
Every time I try to run the Wi-Fi calling ,it stops.
I have it set so when ever I press a button on the on-screen keyboard it should vibrate but it doesn't.
Thanks in advance.
If you need logs then I can get them, just need to tell me where they are.
EDIT - Also, the LEDs on my phone never blink, not when I have an email or text message, nor when I charge my phone. Is this just a limitation with CM7? Or how do I fix it?
Also, I realize that CM7 drains batteries pretty quickly, if you have a suggestion for an easy to install ROM/Kernel that is great at saving batteries, but keeps ADW, and most of the customization options available in CM7, do share.
Thanks again.
Also it seems that my phone is stuck charging at 57%
It's been there for a few hours now.
UPDATE -
I have it now so that the phone vibrates when I press a button with the on screen keyboard
It is charging past 57%
The home bar buttons still do not vibrate even though I have it set so they do.
UPDATE -
The video recording is very choppy. I took a video yesterday and it wasn't this choppy.
Umm so I'm guessing, nobody can help me?

Install of the rom went great with the camera but I'm having dpad issues. The light on the center pad keeps blinking after the phone is put into sleep mode by turning off the screen. Their used to be a setting to turn of light notification (their isn't any). Any help would be great.

I have the update but the constant blinking of the led drains my battery. Is their any way to turn it off or is it a built issue.
That's the way I turn mine off. Perhaps it acts differently with different versions of RAPH?
one other quick question. I noticed the clock is running slow. Losing about ten minutes every few days. Is this a known issue or do I have to add/update something. Restarting the devices to update clock. I do have the data turned off to data battery life.
thanks for your time.
(I think) It is a known issue but don't hold me to it as I usually run data 24/7... Also, I don't run Android constantly as I need my calls to go through and Android is still not quite "there" yet (IMHO)
BLINKING BUTTON NOTIFICATION for 354, 360, and GS2.4b3 Dell Streak ROMs
UPDATE (2011/10/20) v0.999
Uploaded blinking button notification patch version 0.999, for ROM 354, 360, and GingerStreak 2.4 beta 3. Drop support for ODEX-ed ROMs as it seems impossible to update with ODEX-ed framework on ROM 354.
Download the correct version for your ROM below:
Update.zip v0.999 for DEODEX-ed ROM 354 and 360
Update.zip v0.999a for GingerStreak 2.4 beta 3
UPDATE: Confirmed working as tested by zero410
Changelog (0.999)
- Fixed screen turned on during LED blinking. Screen will never turn on neither lit when blinking the notification!
- The 3 capacitive buttons cannot be used to stop notification anymore. The phone needs to be unlocked with power button to do so.
- Prevent button LED blinking on proximity sensor activation during phone calls.
PS: The most ideal, elegant, and power-friendly solution for enabling backlight buttons for use on notificaiton LEDs are, still, loadable kernel modules. The patch will never reaches version 1.0, unless it is implemented as kernel module, in the future.
UPDATE (2011/10/16) v0.91
Uploaded blinking button notification patch version 0.91, for GingerStreak 2.4 beta 3.
Changelog (0.91)
- Fixed blinking to disable when USB is connected between 8:00 PM to 4:00 AM.
The feature wasn't working before.
ORIGINAL POST v0.9
What is it?
I would like to have a notification LEDs like the ones found on BBs. Unfortunately, Streak didn't came with any (hardware) notification light. I've tried several notification solutions but still not satisfied. Heck, I'm not even satisfied on how Froyo handles notification LEDs! Hence breaking in the Android framework, and the resulting update.zip
This update will patch your Streak so it will now blinks the button(s) backlights whenever an application puts *any* notification icon on the status bar. That's right, the patch won't care whether notification asks for light or not. It'll just blink it! The update also (of course, priority requirements!) notifies and blinks missed calls.
How to use
0) Always do nandroid backups! You can just restore the system image if anything goes wrong.
1) You'll need to know whether your ROM version 360 is deodexed or not. If you don't, then most often it's the odexed stock ones. Grab the correct update patch in the attachments.
2) My Streak is rooted. But there is no requirements for root privileges on the updates. So I think it should work on non-rooted phone. Hopefully.
3) Clear /data/dalvik-cache contents before flashing. Sometimes it needs clearing, but sometimes it don't
4) Boot into StreakMod and flash the proper Update.zip package.
5) Restart. As usual, on deodexed systems, replacing files will cause some longer boot time as the update is odex-ed during the boot process. Be patience.
6) Lock the screen, let the screen timeout, or whatever.
7) Get notified on any notification icons and missed calls
8) Congrats! You can now busy playing with your (better) other phones and keep Streak laying on the desk without even touching it!
Features
+ Blinking keypad backlight notification for any applications that provides notifications with icon when the screen is turned off.
+ Missed call notifications, too.
+ One-press power button to clear blinks. You can use any of the three capacitive button, also. Cool!
+ Blinking is disabled when ringer is in vibrate mode. Useful when Streak is in your pocket and blinking it would be useless.
+ Automatically disables blinking when charger is plugged in, after 8:00 PM and before 4:00 AM. Useful when you wanted to hibernate, together with your phone, you phone!
It should be able to be re-enabled manually through notification icon, but unfortunately the feature isn't working (yet!)
TODOs and glitches
- LCD blinks before the first blink, and keeps awake -- albeit with zero brightness -- while blinking. Cannot solve without custom kernel (or custom drivers?)
- Tapping the notification for "Button blinking disabled" does not clears the notification nor re-enable blinking.
Somehow I can't capture the Intent sent from NotificationManagerService itself. Oh well, probably will be important for people who works midnight and slept in the afternoon!
- Inconsistent behaviour on clearing missed calls notification and other notification types.
If you did not answer call while LCD screen is on, next lock screen will cause missed calls notifications blinking. The notification on the status bar had to be cleared before locking the screen.
- It is not known how much battery drain does leaving the phone blinking all the time costs!
- Can't imagine doing all over again on this on Galaxy Note. Maybe I'll just skip that!
Happy blinking!

Hi,
Will be trying Fards' and DJ_Steve's latest GingerStreak 2.4 later tonight. There seems to be very positive response on the system stability on the release.
I wouldn't mind having my own Gingerbread build for that kernel including the feature. If so, I would plan to extend with additonal Settings for Gingerbread that gives you more control on the blinks
I am also thinking of another possibility to run Gingerbread on Streak, but will check their latest release to see whether it's stable enough for production uses.
Will check them after trying GingerStreak 2.4
Cheers
UPDATE: Flashed GingerStreak 2.4 and it is indeed very promising. There might be something on the pipeline though, as stated on the wallpaper

Well there are some reasons why I'm not keen to use the StreakLED:
1) I don't like to have a service hanging around wasting my RAM for something that should've (and is, actually) been built into the system.
2) The modification for Blinking Button notification works of framework level and hijacks all notifications. Any app that attempts to show notification on the status bar will be blinked
But I've just re-read StreakLED's entire thread and thinking. Probably it would be good to have a LED that stays lit instead of blinking to get better power saving, after blinking for sometimes, say 1 hours.
The unresolved problem seems to be the way to just "wakeup" the backlight buttons instead of the entire LCD screen. If anyone knows how to wakeup just the backlight buttons, then power problems should be solved. Haven't got luck with writing "power:blablabla:wakeup" on /sys/leds/button-backlight/power/wakeup.
Looking forward to see the beta on GB

Yes I know (I did accidentally during testing it. It seems like a harmless bug in the backlight driver), but it's for keeping the button backlight lit during screen off.
But why would you want led on all the time with screen on? We are going to let backlight stay lit after an hour to preserve lcd power?

I agreed with you. It's not very distracting though, but it's a good idea, though it had to come with settings in which you can enable/disable. Will post back once I findout how to modify the behaviour.

I agree. It would be great if there was an option to disable the screen from turning on. The L.E.D. Notification is great but if you had an option to keep the screen off this mod would be perfect.

if it could light the buttons up for a notification and not the screen, and have a side option to keep the buttons lit all the time while the screen is unlocked that would be awesome
It has potential but as of now I went back to streak led. On my device it seems that screen stays on for ever. Also when you make a call the screen would turn on and stay on regardless of proximity sensor because there is a notification in the notification bar while talking. Just letting you know. Thanks for your involvement in development.

Ah right, the trigger doesn't detects whether the phone state is in call or not. Fixed on next release.

Greeting everyone.
I recently got an Android and I also recently decided to root and stick a custom ROM on it. Everything went fine and dandy with that and I'm currently on Cryanogen 9 Alpha ROM (it's spectacular to say the least).
On the default ROM you could choose to turn off the key lights (I'm talking about the touch keys on both sides of "the master button"). However, neither does Cryanogen 7 or 9 offer me this option and because I'm so used to it, lights seem weird and unnecessary.
So, after searching the interwebz for a while, I couldn't find anything useful and hence my post.
Thanks in advance for any help given.
Furthermore, fantastic video!
Bump! (Too few characters apparently).

This requires .bln (BackLightNotifiation) mod which isn't featured in my current ROM (Cyanogen 9).
Thanks for the input anyhow.
I would like to know this too. The keys are allways on in CM9 unfortunately

It turns out that you can turn them off in CM7 but unfortunately I'm yet to find a fix for CM9.
you can try to modify the following script in the middle of this post to make it work in cm9

Thanks a bunch for the link.
I'll definitely give it a try when I have a bit of spare time.
EDIT: This script also requires BLN (which I talked about above) and after searching long and hard, I have found out that there is no ICS kernel with BLN support (while some others knew this, I certainly didn't).
After looking around further it seems that I/we won't get the feature for a while since BLN seems to be the only way apart from integration within the ROM (like it is within TouchWiz or CM7) that you can turn off your soft keys.
Latest build of CM9 has removed backlight!
'Tis a glorious day.

Wow, I've been looking for a way to disable the keys and while the script won't work for me messing with the settings did the job, that was my only issue so far. Cheers for the share. I'm using MIUI with siyah if anyone cares in order to make it work.
PS: games and movies look much better with no white lights :O
EDIT: Well, guess I was beat by the software had a notification during the night, and now the lights only stay off until the first time the screen gets turned off, after that they go back to their normal behaviour unless I reboot :|. On the look again for another way.
EDIT 2: Ok, I'm not giving up, for now I found yet another way for anyone interested (you need a BLN kernel however).
I installed BLN Control Pro, disabled everything and put BLN blinking: On and Led OFF time 3 minutes.
Now what I do is enter Test mode, turn the screen off and on, and now, the lights will be off for as long as I keep the program running. The only problem with this, is that BLN stops the phone from going into Deep Sleep, so I just need to remember to turn the test mode off and to disable BLN whenever I don't need the buttons off.
It's not a pretty solution but for now it's the best I could come up.
no setting for that

Same here..And I don't know why CM touch screen sensitivity always have different 'feel' compared to stock ROM, without notice I'm always touch the screen more tightly to prevent miss touch. I think you guys understand well
Ps. Since this ROM is nearest to official then I'll tell more CM bug:
The bass sound's ugly than stock. You can check with mort player with same equalizer (without DSP mgr of course). Also the equalizer freq change from 5 freq (stock) to 6 freq (CM) and if you slide bass booster on mort, the sound more awkward
Um..oh. Laggy gallery! LOL

Not only for messages but when someone is talking to you in WhatApp and others, with all notifications. I think this is to warn you that something happened when the phone was in standby. It's not a bug imo.
The same thing happens with others CM7 roms that I've tested and the AOSP too.
but until you use them do not light. remember that in another CM7 ROM, this does not happen if I went to Settings-> CyanogenMod-> Interface-> LED Notification, except that in this rom, there is no menu Led Notification
is a very good rom but i have a problem, i test smartass, v2, conservative and never enter in deep sleep always 245mhz (my min frequency).
ps: sorry my bad english.

Great ROM so far.
text messaging touch goes rumbled, maybe coz of sensitivity... hope to fix it on next release :clap: more power to Frozen Ace Team...
After two days of usage, I would like to report that this ROM has battery drain issues. Much more than the vo-1 version of CM 7.2
wifi?
Wifi does not work for me. It doesnt scan. When I turn it on in the notifications bar it just turns itself off again after a minute or so.
In the settings the same thing happens. (sometime here it even force-closes)

When I tried several times to type in the password and SSID it still didnt connect and just turned wifi off again.

Ok I have a galaxy note i717. I have 2 problems that are absolutely horrible. One problem is if I recieve a phone call and have certain apps or games either open or were just open, my phone freezes. When I say freeze I mean all I hear is my ringtone, I have no way to answer, and my phone is a paper weight till I power cycle it, once I turn it back on I see no missed calls, and have no idea who called me. The other is I slide to unlock my phone and it is extreemely slow, I press a button and wait an average of about 3-5 seconds before it opens, and every button I push is just as slow, this problem seems random, but I think it has something to do with the other problem. I am right now running black jelly, it is not the rom as all the Jelly Bean Roms have this problem. One solution posted is to revert it to stock ics then have Samsung do the upgrade to Jelly Bean, then reroot it, same problem and did not change. I really want to get a good Jelly Bean rom that works for my i717. I can get any ICS Custom Rom to work correctly, so I will revert it just to get normal functionality, if no one knows how to fix this. This is the last thing I am going to try before reverting back to ICS. Any help is appreciated.

That made it much better I removed my screen saver, and also turned power saver mode off. After I changed that setting the phone worked correctly most of the time. It still runs slow sometimes, but I just turned power saving mode off, so we will see, thanks for the help, the ripple screen lock was doing something bad as it got much better when I removed it.
I tested my phone for a few days, it seems the phone call thing is fixed, thanks for the info about the ripple screen saver. Only problem I currently have is if I forget and leave my game running on a certain screen that is animated and it screen locks, when I unlock and start using the phone it is extreemely slow. A simple restart fixes it, and I am fine with that as my phone actually works correctly most of the time. I was researching the problem and the GPU settings may be the answer, but I have no idea what settings need to be set. One setting is Force GPU rendering ( use 2d hardware acceseration in applications) currently it is turned on. Was thinking also kill all background processes, I really don't know, Anyone out there an expert with GPU or how to finish tweeking my phone.
