[Q] LED color modification without apps - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know that there are lots of apps to change led notifications, but they run in background.
Is there a way to change stock led notification color for calls and sms by changing system files on a rooted samsung 4.1.2 stock phone?

I'm sure that your $600 phone can handle the app in the background.
That being said, there are no other ways, AFAIK

trackball led

ello world.
im writing an app that could light up custom trackball led notifications for defined apps.
without modifying system jar files/rooting that is.
right now i found a way to intercept ANY notification being showed in the status bar. all works fine with all 3rd party apps.. led blinking fast (even on froyo), custom intercepts, custom colors etc..
BUT the progs i need most - gmail gtalk and phone dont have an option to disable native led blinking.. so i can catch them but cant override the default slow-only-one-ugly-color blinking..
ive been thinking about
1) cancel ALL notifications before calling mine (cant find a way to do it + need the one in the status bar to stay)
2) decompile the damned ones (dont like it)
3) force led off.. (again donno the method)
any help will be appreciated.. tnx
IHardwareService hidden api also didnt work (
is it even possible to FORCE led OFF?
Try asking lillhermet (sp?) the creator of Trackball Alert?

[Q] Display ongoing apps in notification shade

Previously my S3 could display whatever apps that was running in the notification shade (pull down notification / status menu thingy). It was simple to switch between apps this way. After I upgraded to JB, this function was gone. I can't remember what app it was that made that happen or was it something in ICS.
Does anyone know how to get this function back or what app I could get to achieve this function?

[Q] Any way to reduce font in the Notification Shade?

Does anyone know of a way to reduce the font in the notification shade? The font that Samsung uses is driving me crazy; it's way too big and I can barely see half of my notifications at one time. It kind of gets rid of the whole point of the notification shade...one place to quickly see all notifications. I've tried adjusting the font sizes in the settings, but doesn't affect the notification shade and I haven't found any apps or mods that are able to change it. I'm running a rooted stock rom.
Any luck?
I know this is an old thread but was wondering if you had found a workaround?
Thanks

Calendar app and notification LED...

I have a Galaxy Nexus, running AOKP. I disabled the stock Calendar app and downloaded the "newer" stock one via the Play Store. One issue I've run into with this new one, though, is that it makes the notification light blink when I have a notification for the next event on my calendar. I always liked to leave those notifications hanging up in my notification bar, because it helps me remember that I have to do something soon, but I don't like the LED blinking all the time just because I have one of those sitting in my notification bar. The LED never blinked in the original stock app...
I've looked through the settings of the app, itself, and all I can find is a setting to turn off notifications altogether, but doing so means I don't get the little reminders up in my notification bar. Did I not see the right setting, or is there no setting to turn off the LED?
What's kind of annoying, too, is that the LED notification for these reminders seems to "override" that of other notifications. For instance, I have it set up in AOKP to blink different colors when I get notifications from certain apps, but the color for the calendar notification seems to take precedence over the LED for everything else.
Any other suggestions, or am I out of luck?

App to change LED

When we receive any calls on our xperia, the default white led flashes which is kinda boring.
I need an app which can change this to another color.
Also need to change colors of sms and missed calls as well.
Can we get the file in the system rom where we can directly make manual changes rather than using app?
