[Q] Built in LED vs BLN wakelocks - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

ok so on BLN it is reccomended to have static on instead of flashing because of wakelocks.
The default behaviour on the S3 for missed sms is a flashing blue led (is forever?) does this have the same battery drain issues as a flashing BLN?

Led control in EBXX?

I can't get my led notification to work in any SC 2.X
I know that led control is supported by kernel.
I'm currently on SC 2.8, I tried all the led control app from the market but still a no-go.
Anyone found a way around this?
If by LED control, you mean Backlight Notifications, where the soft keys light up on certain events, then no. We don't have kernel sources so we can't build a kernel with BLN built-in to do so.
The Fascinate doesn't even have an LED (I WISH!!)

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That's your problem.
We don't have the source code for this rom yet, so this no BLN or high fidelity audio fix from super curio...
misses my voodoo sound fix :-/

[Q] Powerwashed - Battery charged beep disable?

Hi,
I'm on the latest Powerwashed with the PBJ 8/4 kernel. I've noticed that the phone will double beep (chirp?) when the battery is fully charged.
I've tried to mute it by changing the notification sounds to "silent", but that didn't appear to do anything. Is there a way to disable the beep?
I noticed that the Powerwashed changelog has "Removed full battery notification", however I assume that refers to the pop up window?
Thanks!

[Q] bln with Light Flow Lite and CF-Root

Hi all, I use the app lite flow lite to get notifications from a lot of apps I use on my ace (K9-Mail, Calender, SMS, missed Calls, eBay). It gives sound an will light the button backlights when kernel supports bln.
Unfortunately the bln function is not very stable. Sometimes lights go on for some seconds and then go out. I set the configuration to do solid light (no blinking). Sometimes lights go on and cannot be stopped any more, until I reboot the ace.
I tried with different versions of the app and different versions of CF-Root. I achieve the best results with app version 2.6.1 and CF-Root-S5830 v3.7 b82-ex-fixed. In this combination bln starts very dependable, but sometimes does not stop.
With newer Versions of the app light blinks just one time and than stops shining. Same effect with older versions of CF-Root and with b83. I did not try B84 because I do not need overclocking. And I did not try an CM7-Kernel because battery life is said to be not so good. In the moment I am on rom StockLite v2.0, but I had same effects on other roms and on stock deodexed.
Does anyone have similar experiences? Is there any hint, how to get bln to work with newer Versions of the app? Or maybe another app that can light buttons on several notifications.

[Q] SC3 Milestone2 + KGB - How to disable full battery vibration notification?

Hi, I'm on Superclean 3 Milestone 2 with the accurate battery mod (found on page 1 of the SC3 thread) and KGB kernel, and my phone vibrates every time the battery charge is full. Is there a way to disable the vibration notification? Does the KGB trickle charge option have anything to do with it?
Thanks!

[Q] BLN Defination

what is bln controll and whats its function??
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=what+is+bln
BLN = backlight notification, I.E when you get a call, txt, whatever a blinking led light on the phone lights up to let you know. As the SGS2 doesn't have a dedicated led, hacks have been developed that enable the softkey lights to blink in order to achieve this.
True BLN needs to be supported at the kernel level (as opposed to various apps on Google Play which make an indicator on your screen blink), to the best of my knowledge only Siyah (and possibly some direct ripoffs of Siyah) support BLN at this stage. There is a wakelock associated with using BLN and you will suffer a degree of extra battery drain (apparently small) if you use it.

I think "NoLED" app from market does not require a supporting Kernel and its awesome,
