Open light flow and go to general and untick accessibility check.
I think that's the way you won't have the voice

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.

Hey guys!
In CM7, when I hit the Ace's power button, it ends the call. I don't want this, I want the good old turn-off screen, like on stock roms. I searched everywhere and I didn't found any option to change this.
Can someone point me what can I do?
Thanks!

cm7 power button ends call in galaxy ace
I switched over to cm7 on my galaxy ace a week ago. Its very frustrating that the power button ends the call, i always disabled the proximity sensor in stock firmware and kinda used to that.
everytime i try to turn the screen off in a call, it actually ends the call. There is no option in accessibility settings to prevent power button from ending the call (screenshots attached)
I also downloaded an app phone settings manager and that too has no effect.
please help!
Same as here. Using CM7 from vo-1. I think that I'll switch to the one provided by FAT. Can someone confirm if it has that option in Accessibility?
This is what I have. Apart being in portugese, of course.
you can download "Screen Off and Lock" from the Play Store.
this is what I did.
so when someone calls. press the home button to go to your home screen then click the shortcut you have or if not go to your app drawer and press it to turn off your screen.
I'm using go launcher so I set the application to be activated when I glide down my finger in my home screen.

I've used Grif's CM7 and in that ROM, POWER BUTTON ENDS CALL option was in Accessibility only
I don't think that I'll need this anymore. Yesterday I was using the phone when I needed to hang-up the call, and it was right in front of me, so I didn't needed to power-on screen, unlock it and then hang-up. I just hit the power-button and done!
Also, I think that I can live with the screen-delay to power-off.

Whatsapp vibration pattern
Can anyone tell me if theres an app to increase the intensity of vibration if we get a message on whatsapp? I have to keep my phone on vibration in class and always miss out on the messages as the vibration intensity is too low.
I figured how to change it for gmail and sms through an app but how can i change it for other apps like whatsapp?

Blue, red, green (presumably an app could also provide mixed colours).
bought it juz for fun.
pleasantly surprised by the functions it offers.
a good buy definitely. doesnt cost a kidney too.
on my s3 when lightflow is on it activates talk back function when choosing home screen page. and talk back and driving mode are off :S
Yep - thats a bug (not with Lightflow) but elsewhere as this also happens with other apps that require Accessibility function.
Requires root or not?

Root isn't required.
Yes talk back is an android bug in ics that Google seem happy to ignore. Their support even blame the app devs such as ourselves (and the tasker devs) for the issue but will not reply once you challenge them. It's really frustrating!
I hope to get an s3 over the next week or so to see if there are any extra things I van hook into that Samsung have added to ics.
I have one person with the lte version of the phone and it seems that that doesn't work so well as all the colors are messed up. I hope it's a pre production bug.
New version of the app due soon with quite a few additions.

You need select the function from accessability. Untick led functions within settings and that's it. Let me know of that works.
I think the talkback issue is more of a touchwiz issue, as if you change the launcher to Apex there is no problem
Also i have totally removed talkback from my device... And i still habe the same issue.. So im quite sure what else to try

Had the same problem and had to do a factory reset.
Well I managed to pick up and S3 for development.
I've been playing around with the tackback issue. What is working for me at the moment is going into accessibility. Switching "ON" talkback. Then pressing the "settings button at the bottom".
Uncheck every checkbox in the settings.
Then switch talkback OFF again.
Could anyone else see if this helps for them?
New version of lightflow due very soon, just fixing up a few last bits for the s3 with the new version.

Tried the above still have the talkback bug only but it only seems to be touchwiz related i.e when I open folders on a homescreen or go into the homescreen manager. Seems that the bug appeared after I enabled tasker under accessibility settings.
pulsing led
If you turn on or off your s3, you can see the led actually pulsing blue and greenish... I wonder if an app could make the led pulse in the same way for notifications...
Just wondered if theres any apps out there which add more LED options? Maybe frequency and colour change?

Good point - I was going to root last night then thought I'd be screwed if something goes wrong with the phone!
yeah thats what im waiting for , really dont want to void the warranty on a few day old phone by rooting it
Well you can always restore the phone to factory settings, reset the flash counter and unroot which isnt that hard tbh and then nobody would ever no you rooted or flashed another ROM and to your warranty would be intact!
Im going to try out this app now cheers guys!

Go to lightflow and make sure that your SMS notification is set to stop "when notified app is open" (or something like that)

I have SMS setup to blink green. Here is what happens
Green light comes on
Screen turns on for like 5 seconds showing the lockscreen and the new message
Green light comes on for a short duration
Red light comes on even shorter.
No more blinks.
I recommend lightflow lite..it is free and work perfectly with sgs3
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Your phone doesn't need to be rooted to run light flow.
The issue with SMS showing and then stopping is due to the way it's monitored.
The Samsung SMS app causes the app to pop-up when a new text comes in. Doing this causes lightflow to think the app has been entered and cancels the notification straight away.
Could you try switch on "alternate off monitoring". That's what's needed for some other apps the have a pop-up like this.
I've got an s3 to test this out on, but I haven't got around to cutting a sim card down yet to try out the phone functionality. I plan to do that before releasing lightflow release 3.
To avoid battery drain make sure you set "notification type" TO "Show latest only" in general settings of light flow.
I didn't put this thread in q and a since it's not really asking for basic help.
Moving along, i like the way the led pulses on phone power off with the animated Samsung logo. Is there some way to get the led to pulse like that for notifications? I'm a little disappointed that there aren't more ways to customize the appearance of it.
Thanks in advance!

Not sure what I did but I have Lightflow working with talkback off. I'll mention that Lightflow works best when you have root which I have. My setup does just what I want. Also note that the Note 2 has a setting that enables flashing the LED for incoming messages, voice mail and one other thing I can't recall. The drawback of this stock capability is that the flashing goes off when the screen comes on. I only want the light off when I go to the app causing the LED notification which Lightflow allows me to setup.
Light manager works beautifully andbits free...no bugs

If rooted, the light will stay on when the screen is on using light flow - go into settings and enable root mode and s3 root mode. Unless I misunderstood what you said, in which case, my bad.
Also, once it disables air view to turn on light flow, just go back in and turn on airview
