I have problem with BLN on the SGS2, VillainRom 3.0 Siyah2.2.
When a notification comes in, the BLN comes on which is to be expected.
However, if i screen on, displaying the lockscreen, and screen off, the BLN turns off, even though i have not checked the notification.
Time out is disabled on BLN.
Anyone experiencing this, or know how i can solve the problem?
That is normal and expected behaviour.
Once the screen turns on, the blinblin turns off.
That's also the reason why the screen must stay off for BLN to work for like SMS and the such.
hmm... thanks for the reply.
one of my buddies, has his BLN left on even after the screen power on and off... i guess his is the abnormality then.
the funny thing is he doesn't know how he did it either. if not, i'd like to reproduce it for my phone too...
Edit:
Found a way to solve the problem. The MMS patch on check rom will allow the BLN to stay on even after the screen on and off.

Hi guys!
I noticed over quite a time, that while I leave my phone charging over the night, any random notofication will cause the screen to stay on until I wake up and manually turn it off.
On my galaxy s2 I have VillainRom 2.1.0 (Android 2.3.4) with ninpho's 2.0.4 kernel.
However I did notice the problem before with VR 1.4 and CF-Root kernel (didn't use anything else yet), so I figure it might not be related to this.
This is rather annoying, as I don't want any burn in effects on my screen, but there's a much worse part about it:
It's noch 100% limited to the time of being charged. If I remove the charger at 100%, play around a little with the phone and then go to sleep, some random notification (whatsapp/sms etc.) will still cause the phone to wake up and not go back to sleep mode.
What happens is, I wake up with a phone at 50% battery (at it's best!), or I don't even wake up because my phone is dead and therefore my alarm clock stays quiet..
I read about some people having this problem with their SGS1 and it might help to go to Settings -> Applications -> Development -> uncheck Stay awake.
SGS2 does not have this "stay awake" option (or I'm seriously stupid)..
Anyone an idea what I might want to try?
Best greetings, Alex
At that screen I have "Standby" and you need to have it unchecked. Also, what's your screen-off delay? You don't have any apps like screebl keeping you screen on, I assume?

You're problem sounds similar to mine.

I have tested with a stock rom of which I made no input and had the same issue.
Hope we can solve our problems. Cheers

mine just started doing it. i have been running custom rom for awhile now.
apps recently installed:
words free
launcher pro 806
extended controls
impossible level game
I have uninstalled:
words free
impossible level game
my issue is still happening.
when unplugged screen turns off.
I can get a text, it will light up then turn back off.
when plugged in (charging)
display will not turn off unless i press the lock button.
if i get a text the screen turns back on and stays on unless i press the lock button again.
I have recently re-flashed, complete wipe of phone and factory reset wipe.
I still have the screen on when charging and no option to disable.
I need an option to disable the "stay awake"
As my fault occurs with the phone completely reset on a stock rom it must be hardware so I am going to return it and see what happens from there.
I have flashed CM7 and there is an option to turn stay awake off.
This option is removed in DarkyRom.
Finally figured out how to turn it on or off!!!!
install the app extended controls and add stake awake as a toggle.
Turn it off!!!
then remove app
FINALLY!
Hi, I'm running neutrino rom and I'm trying to find a way for the notification LED to blink even if the screen is on. How can I accomplish this? I've tried lightflow but the LED still only blinks when the screen is off.
I would like this function, since if I have my phone in the dock and the screen has gone to screensaver mode I can't look in the satusbar to see if I have a notification. And since the LED only blinks if the screen is off I have to touch the screen to check and I find that silly to have to do. Sometimes I forget and then hours later I find out a have had missed calls and texts.

I believe our phone is one of those that doesn't blink led with screen on. I know lightflow warns of this as does my handcent. Don't think its possible unless someone else proves me wrong.
that's strange. if I mess with the LED notifaction settings under Cyanogenmod setting I can test the LED notification while the screen is on. Somehow it must be possible.

Is that cm7 or 9? I noticed in 7 the settings just aren't there (for me anyway) to use led for anything other than system default. With 9 I noticed led functions totally different like the charging led working (love that!) So maybe its rom dependent.
I'm running Neutrino CM7. the LED notifcationsettigns are definetly there. maybe it is rom dependant. Does the LED work for you if the screen in on running CM9?

I honestly haven't had a chance to test that with cm9. I load the rom and test the things that I use most in order, wifi, camera. I don't get passed the camera issue on most. That's a bug I can't live with since I take tons of pics. I will try to remember to test it out next time I flash. Im on rc1 of 7 now getting ready to update to rc2, maybe there will be something there. Where did you find the settings for it in neutrino?
Just upgraded to cm7.2 rc2 and found the screen on led setting. Works great for me. Just wish I could get a charging solid led that goes off at 100% I got spoiled from my flipside I guess but its just so much nicer to not have to turn the screen on to verify full charge. Lightflow didn't work for me.
How do I prevent my screen from turning on when receiving a text?
Just got my S4 and am having trouble with one thing. Every time I receive a text message, the screen turns itself on.
What I've already tried:
- The feature is unchecked in the settings, but even then, screen still turns on.
- Installed Handcent (so I could use pop-up feature), disabled notifications from default app, still screen turning on.
- Disabled default app, screen still turns on when texted.
- Turned off pop-up, thought it may be doing it, screen turns on from texts.
I have no idea what else to do and this is an annoying thing. Maybe I'm missing something obvious, if so, please point it out.
Thanks.
I've been using PA ROM for Galaxy S3 i9300 for a while now. So far didn't have any major problem except rare auto-restarts. But now I'm facing an issue with LED notifications. While the screen is off for any new notifications at the time of arrival the LED flashes once and that's it, then no pulsing. The notification settings are intact. What could be the problem?
Device GT-i9300
ROM: PA 4.45 for S3 STABLE
Same Here
I9300 with PA 4.45 (STABLE)
LEDs don't work 95% of the time. At first I thought either K9 Mail was a problem or a Gravity Box conflict. I did a second clean install (did not reinstall Gravity Box) but get same results. Regardless of which app. K9 Mail, Whatsapp, etc. Led flashes for a split second and that's it. Sometimes if I turn the display on and off it will start to blink.
Also did a test with Tasker>LED Notify, same results, flashes for a split second. After screen on and off blinks as it should.
Solutions or suggestions would be appreciated

Exactly same problem here. Any notifications like for missed call will work here because the screen is on when the the call is received and the screen goes off, then the led works perfectly fine. Tried also turning of the screen exactly when a generic notification is incoming. After screen off the led blinks as set. The problem is only when receiving something screen off. I don't know how android handles notifications, If known I can find the correct source of the problem.

I assume you meant screen ON. Actually I did a Tasker event for received notification with a Secure Settings tas of "wake device for 1 second". However a) it did not help the LED that way and b) it did not go off after a second.
I will be trying Light Manager as described here . Will advise if it helps but need to get back to work. Been spending too much time on this the last few days!

UPDATE: AcDisplay is working very nicely for me. LEDs work fine and its a neat app too!
I'm asking about an issue that is happening to me since the beginning. With the "wake up screen on notification" activated, the screen wake up normally but the brightness is too low to see it, is this a normal behaviour? The same problem happens with "Always on display" function.
Seems like i have a similare issue. First of all, the phone ALWAYS wakes up for a notification even if i got wake up screen on notification" turned off. And when this happens its also at a REALLY low brightness level so you can barely see it in anything other than complete darkness.
yeah I got the same issue on stock zenfone 9 rom. Hopefully someone with a different kernel and custom rom can comment so we know if it's something fixable.
