Lighting buttons problems - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i have problem with my two buttons they are dont lighting

Assuming you checked the display settings? And any other config that can control these buttons, like the features in custom kernels? If you don't provide any info, it's hard to answer. Kinda like, if you say your phone doesn't turn on, I can suggest inserting and charging the battery...

[Q] Capacitive buttons not lit up

Hi guys
Had my galaxy s 2 through T-Mobile for a few days now. Beats HD2 running TyphooN CyanogenMod 7 hands down.
I've debranded the phone, running KE7 XEU and rooted via chainfire's insecure kernel.
However I've noticed this morning that the capacitive buttons are no longer lit up. The power is very low and needs charging, so I was wondering is this normal? A sort of built in power saving thing perhaps?
I'm not actually running power save mode, but suddenly the buttons aren't lit, however they still work?
Any ideas.
Thanks
Yes, that's normal. Search the settings, you can customize the behaviour.

Thanks for the swift reply.
That's a relief!
I've just put on the Case Mate Tough case and suddenly the buttons didn't light up - thought maybe I'd somehow broken it!
I can see power save settings and an option under display to specify the touch key light duration, but not nothing specifically regarding turning off touch key light power saving mode when battery low. Am I missing something?
Unfortunately there isn't anything you can do. When the power is low the buttons won't light up. For me it's not the end of the world as I know where they are.

[Q] Miui + capacitive buttons

Is there a way to prevent the LED from turning on when its bright outside? I know that on the stock rom that their is a feature where it turns on and off automatically and is wondering if theres a feature/ mod for this.
You can set the light levels manually for the screen and the buttons when you have auto backlight on, but the button levels don't seem to have any effect. Not sure why, I'd also like to know the answer to this.
While I don't have an answer for this, it has been proved out the battery drain from the touch buttons being lit up is near negligible.
The touch button lights being on with bln, at least for the time being, doesn't cause battery drain, it's the process that turns them on for a notification that drains the battery.
So I guess that was a long way to say, why do you want them off?

Ringer/notification volume changing on its own?

OK I have been having issues with my ringer and notification volume.
I can have it set to full volume and I miss calls or messages because the volume changes to the lowest setting or silent.
Any ideas on why this would happen?
A lot of people are having this issue, and, it is listed in the issue thread. The only 2 things we have come up with is that it is a software problem, or people are accidently pushing the rockers, and the phone is acting as if it is awake registering the action.

Hard to push buttons when it is sitting on the table...
I am going with software. I am also trying turning off the special features like pocket mode and quiet on pickup to see if that helps.
i haven't had this problem yet, but i DO have the problem of system volume continuously making itself 100% lol..thankfully though i don't use anything that uses system volume, so nothing is blaring loud and scaring the crap outta me.

Well, you didn't specify it wasn't in your pocket or what not.
Turning off those features might help. Isn't there a setting that sets the volumes to be what they were on previous use? For example if you pick up the phone and the volume goes down, maybe it sticks like that? Doesn't explain it going to 100% though.
Ok here is my biggest issue that I have found. I use alarmdroid to wake me up and for other routine alarms. I have it connected to beautiful Widgets so when I press the time it opens alarmdroid. When I go in to the app, then exit, it changes my alarm volume to zero. I also use the app volume locker so I know when it is changing settings on me. I have successfully recreated this problem numerous times. Anyone else with this combination of apps experience this? How about with just alarmdroid?

I use plain old Sense clock and alarm.
Sense alarm rocks. It's easy, and wakes me up every time with its annoying ass beeping. I hate alarm clocks. I hate waking up, period.

I 100% believe that I accidentally hit the volume rocker and so I downloaded volume locker and I have not had any volume issues since!!
I would use sense alarm, but I usually run sensless ROMs. So I like to keep things similar. Anyone else use alarmdroid? Anyone care to try it and see if they can duplicate the problem?

It happened to me a couple times and then one time I noticed that the way I was holding the phone when I woke it up or turned it "off" was applying pressure to the volume rocker and changing the volume. It happened so quick I barely noticed it, just saw a blip at the top of the screen once and figured out what it was.
I think changing those settings helped. I will keep checking on it though.

Capacitive Buttons

How to shut off capacitive buttons from lighting up? Did Samsung remove this feature to shut off and change duration?
Yep,,,sadly they seem to have removed this option. Annoying.
Looks like we weren't the only ones to notice

Thanks. At least it is something to use at night.
Hi, I have the S6 Edge. The touch key lights are not working at all. In Settings I have the Touch Key Light duration set to "Always On". Power Saving Mode is off, but they still won't come on. The keys do blink briefly during startup, so I do know they physically work. Any ideas? Thanks

Anyone find a setting to turn off the charging sound?

Sometimes I come to bed late and when I put my phone on my charger I want it to not make a sound. But I don't want to put it the whole phone on mute in case I get a text or phone call. The 3 previous phones I had did have a setting I just either can't find it on V30 or it is not there.
Mine masked no sound. But I have the system noises turned to zero in the volume control bars
Bumping this thread because I too would like to turn off the sound. Or better yet, change it. But I don't think there is a way. I'm assuming this thread is for Wireless Charging. I honestly think LG forgot to include a sound file for Wireless Charging. Android usually has a file called "WirelessChargingStarted.ogg" in system/media/audio/ui/ but there is not one there. The sound it plays is a notification sound "Crystal" which it is probably defaulting to. Hopefully the Oreo update adds an actual Wireless Charging sound that isn't so annoying or loud.

What about putting it in vibrate mode?

Same here, would like a little reminder, but the current sound is mental. Hope it gets tweaked in Oreo.
I'm looking to turn mine off, as well, but only because I want Tasker to handle it for me, and not make a sound when I'm at work and I put my phone on a wireless charger. (I like to overcomplicate things)
I'll drop this tip here to get more eyes on the situation, but I don't mean to imply that I found the correct option...
Install QuickShortCutMaker from the Play Store. (The icon is a finger pressing a red dot) Then, search through every activity (Start with the Settings application) for a shortcut to charging sounds. Again, I couldn't find it using this method, but I was able to use this same app to get to the Advanced Calling options on my V20, so it can help you get to menus that LG has hidden but not removed from the UI.
Good luck, and report back if anyone finds the right way to turn off charging sounds!
try this way
turn down the volume of 'touch feedback and system' all the way, it should do the trick, and i guess it doesn't affect anything else or at least much important
8.0 installed and still no controls for any type of charging sound control
Installed 8.0 from LG Bridge yesterday and there is still no volume control for charging sound, either wired or wireless, and no custom sound for just charging either. Drats! I too so HATE the lack of this basic feature.

Uh... Yes there is.
It's the volume slider for "touch feedback & system"
Thank You, but...
Thank you, but... I found the Touch Feedback slider as you mentioned., slid it all the way down and it still makes the sound when plugging it into the charger. Darn!
I know necro-posting is frowned upon, but I needed to find the answer to the question again after I had to format the data on my phone.
When you plug in the phone, pull down the bar at the top and long-press the Android System entry that shows what mode the port is set to (Charging, File Transfer, etc...), go to All Categories. Near the bottom, find 'USB connection'. Tap it and then tap 'Importance' and change it to medium.
No sound when any USB cable is plugged in. I haven't found a way do disable/change the charging sounds specifically, but I'm thinking LG modified the OS to not read specific sound files for charging at all, and only uses whatever sound is set in this 'USB connection' dialog.
Also, there is a 'LG_Cable_Connect.ogg' file in /system/media/audio/ui that can be renamed/replaced/removed.
