Capacitive Buttons Backlight as Notification - OnePlus 3T Themes, Apps, and Mods

Hey folks ..
Is there a way to have the Backlights of the Capacitive button on the One Plus 3T pulsating (just as the Notification LED) when a Notification comes in ??

That is a nice idea
Hope someone will make it work

I remember BLN Control apk with Samsung Galaxy I

The gravitybox xposed module has this function, and it works, but it doesn't pulses, its just flashes.

I'm not sure what you mean by it "doesn't pulse just flashes".
On my phone 3T using Gravity box it works in tandem with the regular notification LED at the top.

It's not turning on/off as smooth as the notification led (which is pulsating)
It flashes, turns on/off suddenly. Like when you turn on/off the lights in a room.

[Q] Notification LED Replacement

Hello people, to my dismay, I have found that there is no notification LED on the S2 and so I'm wondering whether or not there is an option, through apps or such, to get your screen to light up or something. Just doing some research before I get this phone as I don't want to be stuck with a problem without knowing whether it is able to be solved.
Thanks in advance
Use the No-LED app.
Edit - It wont light up your screen like a Pink Floyd concert, but it does provide color icon notifications for email, sms/mms, charging status etc
Thanks! I just looked up the app after reading your post and it seems perfect, with the bonus of being developed for the Galaxy S. Thanks again, it'll be among the first apps I'll get
To the guys who use no Led:
Is it true that it drains battery a lot?
Guess the is no alternative right now.
I would love blinking "menu" and "Back" Button rather than blinking screen...
I looked around for info on the this app and found the developer's thread about it. It's someone from XDA actually.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=730692
i ll test it now anyway...
Try any kernel that supports bln and install bln control from the market. This way the buttons will light up if you missed anything ( you have to be rooted though)

I don't think there's a kernel yet that supports bln for SGSII....

Frankly speaking, it's a terrible idea to lighten the screen as notification. Yes it is absolutely true that it will drain the battery, definitely. So No-LED is a big No for me, especially when GS II have two backlited keys, we are just missing the BLN kernel support.
Regards.
"I would love blinking "menu" and "Back" Button rather than blinking screen..."
Exactly what I'm looking for too.
+1 for the blinking backlighted buttons idea!
<rant>I'm currently stuck with an old G1 with a dedicated notification multicolored LED and I'm getting ready to upgrade my phone (most likely the SGII) and I'm disappointed to see newer phones are lacking notification lights... It's not like it's a lot more expensive to implement... a simple colored LED with a timer interrupt and an I/O pin...</rant>
Anyways, I'd love to have the backlighted button as an alternative..
Thanks,
Stephane
Have you noticed that when the proximity sensor is on it turns red? Make a call and check it next to the camera. I guess we could use that as a notification led. I wonder what would eat more battery, the soft-keys backlight (like the BLN in i9000) or the proximity sensor.

[Q] In Xperia U Notification LED(blue) is very dim

Hello all,
all Xperia u users must have noticed that notification leds are very dim (specially blue led for sms and miss call notifications)
@xeda developers
can u guys please tell me if we can we control the intesity of these leds through code (in upcoming custome rom or some application)?
thanks
Mahendra
I just got mine today, but unless I hold it and look straight at it I can't even see the top LED is on when charging it, not tried missed call notifications yet.
The LEDs on top are crap
And cannot be intensified by any app or code.
There are apps that use the big led bar below to take over the notifications.

[Q] How to turn off the LED bar of the Xperia U ST25i

Hello,
I've searched for a solution to turn off the LED bar for quite some time, but all the solutions via apps like LEDs-U-CTRL or uninstalling the sony.illumination.service package or removing the /system/apps/SemcIllumination.apk or the terminal commands from this thread don't work for me. Maybe because I've flashed the FXP152... The two packages don't exist.
Is there any other way to disable the LEDs? What versions of FXP support disabling the LEDs?
Thanks in advance!
yes u can disable ..

use SCREEN FILTER https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.haxor&hl=en app from google pay store and install it thn run it .then uncheck enable soft key backlight then click enable screen filter ..you can adjust your bightness to too low as u want..
reply me if it doesnt work..
I can't believe it! It really works!
Thanks!
In FXP 210a the LED bar is finally completely off. Thanks to that my phone used only 2% of battery in the last 11 hours. Well... without using the phone much (sleeping for about 7 hours) and Wifi off. The Governor at "on demand" set to 200-400 MHz. :cyclops:
(of cause the LED bar will still blink at a custom frequency with a custom color when I get a message.)
btw: When the LED was always on the percentage went down every few minutes... It almost halves the duration of the battery when using the phone all day.
*Don't mind me reporting how things were progressing*

bro you know how turn off illumination bar of xperia u permanent, without apps? please tell me
Use illumination bar notification app (search urself) and on choosing the color of the theme of that app, don't slide non of the red, green and blue and then, save it. That's how.
P.S: That app didn't even use root access so you better give it a try

I don't know... I have something in mind, but it also could cause, that no led works at all or even that the phone won't boot anymore... So I don't even want to try it. (deleting the file /system/lib/hw/lights.montblanc.so)
As Little Zed said, you should try it with an app like screenfilter or the illumination bar notification app.
If you try out newer Roms like KitKat, then you also have an option to disable the LED but, I don't know if it will both disable the small LED on the top right and the LED bar... But this is something you might want to test.
ps: in the current KitKat Rom the LED bar won't work, you'd have to replace the above mentioned file with the one from CM10.1.

[Q] Notification lights?

Is there a way to turn the hardware buttons into the notification light instead of the Power button led? I have a case that covers the power button and miss the notification blink that I had on the Atrix HD. Thanks in advance.
There's an older app for that on the play store. Called LG notification lights or something like that. Doesn't officially support OG, but might be worth a try. I don't recall any talk of the feature... Probably because we have a notification light. It was popular on the i777 though.

Thanks. I'll have to check that out. The only reason I want it is because of the case I have. :good:
I have confirmed that LG Touch LED Notifications by Martin Börjesson works on my E970 with KitKat AOSP 4.4.2. I have the Diztronic TPU case that covers the notification light. When I get a notification it will vibrate first (can be adjusted), then light the capacitive buttons. Perfect!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.martinborjesson.o2xtouchlednotifications
I used to have a Samsung Moment that did not have a dedicated notification light, the Devs used to do kernel edits that allowed for the BLN app by Neldar to work.
Also, just in case there is anyone like me who keeps their phone on vibrate but still wants notification lights for Gmail without the vibrate notification, do the following within the Gmail app:
Press hardware menu button or three squares menu button in top right of Gmail app to access Settings;
Select your connected Gmail account;
Leave Notifications box checked, press Inbox sound & vibrate;
Press Sound, select Silent;
Make sure Vibrate is unchecked.
What I would love to see is the ability to assign up to three types of notifications to the three capacitive buttons that we have.
Example:
Missed call = Back button
SMS message = Home button
Gmail message = Menu button
Missed call + SMS + Gmail = All three buttons lit. Hmm... maybe I will email this suggestion to the Developer of Trigger - location profiles to see if they could add this sort of functionality to their already awesome app.
Does anyone know if the E970 has one LED light to illuminate all three capacitive buttons, or are they three separate LEDs? Edit: Boo! Only has two... http://imgur.com/a/ydoJb
I've been using an app called ButtonLED I found on XDA since ICS days and still works with KitKat roms. The GUI is pretty basic and not the prettiest but the app is functional. When you turn the logs on, it will track what app or keywords appear in the status bar. You can then go in and add that app or keyword to be excluded and not trigger the notification. I'm going to check out the LG app and see if that performs better (battery drain, etc). Here's the link for the info on ButtonLED... http://www.xda-developers.com/android/buttonled-turns-your-hardware-buttons-into-a-notification-led/ Even though the app is not being updated, I've been running 1.6 with no issues.

didn't work on mine unfortunately. I'd tried it a couple of weeks ago while looking for solutions on this issue (along with many other apps). I'm on SnowJB. So far the only one that has worked is using Xposed+GravityBox... the problem with that one is that it seems to link the side notification LED red light to the front softkeys LEDs, so when the phone is charging and the red LED is flashing on/off the front LEDs flash as well. This bothers me because once I go to sleep and charge the phone the white front LEDs do seem very bright... plus I don't like the fact of having them flashing every night for 8 hours straight, gives me the impression that it'll cause them to get damaged much sooner than normal since they weren't really desinged to flash like that. There is an option on GravityBox that says DISABLE LED FLASHING WHILE CHARGING... which I thought could've helped to prevent that charging flashing but at least in my case that option did nothing,
It would be awesome if someone could come up with a mod for this. Even better if someone knew what file could be edited through root browser to make the red light flash faster on notifications.

Thx....
didn't work either... which version did you install? (I saw there were several on the dropbox download link).
The problem I have with these apps is that they interrupt the normal function of the softkey lights... for example I like to have these lights always ON while my screen is ON as well, I don't like them to time out... and there is an option withing stock Android to set them up like that.... but when I use an app to use the LEDS for notifications for some reason it disables the stock preset and shutts them off entirely while the screen is on... I kinda gave up on this. I'd just be so happy if I could modify the frequency of the RED LED on the power button on notifications.

I use the same setup with cap keys always on. That's the downside all apps/mods have regarding the keys getting disabled when the screen is turned on after a notification. Simply turn the screen off and back on to reset the keys and they will turn back on/reset. I'm using 1.6.

app replacement for LED

so, i'm struggling without a notification LED. my phone is usually silent for work, on my desk. I don't notice unread notifications on the second screen unless i'm looking right at it. Is there an app that will periodically wake the screen if there are unread notifications? so far i've tried dynamic notifications/ac display, and either would be perfect if there was a way to re-notify of missed notifications!

So close.. I need an app to wake the screen because the phone is on silent.
Hi,
I think this is what you're looking for: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.led.notify
The app enables the Screen and shows a small notification dot moving about a black screen. The color of the box can be changed per app. Ypu can also switch between a colored box and the app Icon. You can also configure noLED to be only active when the phone is set to silent/vibration mode.
Don't Forget to activate NoLED in the settings of the app.
check this out! i think it's exactly what i wanted.
