Profiles

Hey all. I have been searching for an app/widget that will create ringer profiles. For example, a low volume level with vibrate off at night, loud volume with vibrate on when outside, vibrate only in meetings, etc. All selectable/switchable via one (or two) button presses. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I use Quick Profiles, from the Market. It let you create different profiles and place shortcut icons for each of them.
A much more complete solution is Toggle Settings, but it is also much resources hungry.

Trying ProfileManager for now. I remember on my Touch there was an app that, when selected from the home screen, would pop-up a list of fully customised profiles. Simple. The widgets in the market (most in the form of switches) all seem to lack the ability to select ring AND vibrate ... it's either one or the other.

Why not try Locale?

also try audiomanager. I know you can do it in the pro version, not sure about the free one though.
But i always hear good things about locale too.

Locale Beta was awesome, worked really well and hardly affected the phone in terms of performance or battery life.
Locale is now resource-hungry and not as full featured. The network location is really iffy (it wasn't in Beta), it costs ten quid, and it just seems slow and buggy. I'm quite annoyed I spent money on it, based on my impressions of Beta.

Does any of these apps allow to set auto-answer on and enable the loudspeaker? It would be great to create an in-car profile!

NoLED and menu buttons

Does anyone know how to make the lower buttons, back, menu, search, and home buttons not light up when I receive a message our missed call while using the NoLED app?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

I don't believe there is that option within the NoLED app. The BLN has to be built into the Kernel I believe.... I'm sure there will soon enough be a supporting Kernel for this as there is much support for the Galaxy series phones and this sort of thing. As I am not a dev I have no idea how easy/hard it would be but I cant wait

The op was trying to turn the lights off not on. As far as I know it just needs to be updated for gingerbread/ns so that the bottom lights don't turn on. You can follow the original app thread here. It looks like the dev won't be working on it til after the holidays.

As in the camera flash? Well if your phone is laying on it, that probably doesn't work too well
Plus that LED is bright. Not sure what it's power requirements are compared to using NoLED.

That's what Back Light Notification (BLN) is and it needs a supporting kernel to be ported over.

Didn't want to start a whole new thread just to ask a question, but for whatever reason, NoLED doesn't work for me. I'm on Android 2.3.1 running stock (not LP or AWD). I've read the FAQ and I believe I have everything set up correctly. I call myself and miss it and I've emailed myself (different accounts) to test it, but I don't get anything on my black screen.
SOS?

did you use the widget to turn it on or restart the phone? personally i don't like it, i had my phone fully charged and had about 4 notifications bouncing around, not sure if thats a lot but it drained my battery to 16% in about 3 hours.

Yeah my battery also feels like it's draining quickly put I never thought our was because if this, since they say it's good for these types of screens, but note I'm thinking it may be this app. What other alternatives exist to get some sort if notifications for the nexus s?

I honestly doubt its the app. Blacks on SAMOLED consume nearly 0 power.
Check your apps power consumption under Menu > Settings > About Phone > Battery Use.

Display will always be the highest under almost every circumstance, regardless if you had the app or not.
If anything is higher than display, I'd be super concerned.

Yes to both. I have the widget set to "on," restarted my phone, and before, made sure all the settings were correct.
Still, nothing shows up after sending myself emails and giving myself calls (didnt' pick up, of course).
Doesn't seem to work; I'm running 2.3.1 with stock launcher.

Just read the FAQ. It's the "No Lock" app that's preventing NoLED from functioning. That's a shame because sometimes when I'm at home, I dislike having to swipe or enter my pattern key to unlock the phone.
NoLED works fine now. Thanks y'all.

NoLED keeps force-closing on me! So annoying. Anything else similar that works entirely on NS?

It's forced closed on me a few times as well.
I'm finding I don't really need NoLED. I prefer having No Lock capabilities. Oh well.

[Q] Do not disturb or blocking mode feature for overnight?

I am just about to get one of these phones but was wondering if it has the ability to switch off calls/notifications at night between specified times?
I believe the S3 has blocking mode and iOs has Do not disturb.
If it doesn't have this ability are there any apps on the play store that people could recommend that would do this?
Cheers

Thanks I will check that out, so it doesn't do it natively then?

If it does, then it's very well hidden. i can't find such option.

I am using this Ringer Volume for years and it never failed.
Easy, simple and versatile.

There is an app in the play store called SEER that works like a charm.

Ha ha lol I thought you were taking the piss until I clicked on your link.
Do any of the apps have the ability to set it so one number still rings, as I am on call and need the phone on silent unless work ring.

That's an unethical practice disturbing an employee while on his sleep considering the fact that it's not already work hours. lol! You should know your rights! You deserve a healthy living still you know haha!
Anyways I'm not sure about the HTC One... Don't have it yet but on past HTC Devices there's this feature called Smart Group... You could assign contacts on that group and add options on it like the notification settings for each particular group. And yeah you can configure it to be silent on a specified time or switch ringtones on specified times also.

If you want some serious automation, check out Tasker.
It s not free, and not easy to get used to, but with some perseverence it can do just about anything.
The easy stuff is shutting radios and volume off between hours. Also simple to nominate a specific contact so that person can still make your phone ring.
With some practice you'll get it automatically muting your phone when you walk into your favourite cinema.
Or adjusting settings depending on battery levels.
Or turn your wi-fi on when you get home.
Or waiting until you are on a certain part of your drive home from work and text the wife to say you are on the way, and to get dinner ready! :laugh:
Check out some of the pre-made "recipies" others have made for Tasker than you can download and import...
http://tasker.wikidot.com/profile-index

Nevermind thought it had a night mode it doesn't
Or another suggestion would be BusyMe all it does it set times to silence your phone. Very simple and work perfect. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fernandodunn.android.busyme.lite

I use an app called power schedule basic which does this as well and is very customisable. You can use it to set silent mode at night, wifi on and off schedules, ring profiles and other stuff.

Wow thanks for all the suggestions, I checked out Tasker, it looks mega complicated though, I also tried Llama which seems to be good as well, any other suggestions?

I think Tasker is overkill (doesn't mean it's bad). I can't judge is functionality but it's just too much work to accomplish simple things. That's why I settled for Llama.

Some ideas, maybe the best if we can accepnt call from some group of contacts such as favorites...
Any idea?

Llama allows you to put your phone into quiet mode but still let calls ring your phone but only from specified contacts. It's not as simple as just selecting your favorites group but you can select allowed contacts.
The reason I sought this specific app was due to Smart Actions on my Razr HD. I loved it but found it was too limited. Llama fills in the gap.

Try I'm sleeping app in store.

[Q] Email screen on mod

Is there a way to have the screen turn on when I get a notification? More specifically an email. I did notice in the Roms section there are tweaks to have SMS screen on.
There are apps in the play store that will allow this but they all require the accessibility settings to be turned on which affects how the lock screen works so looking for a way to do this without using an app.
Thanks

You'll either need a different rom or an app, it might be added by an HTC update at some point but I haven't read anything about it. I think HTC thought the notification light was good enough...

I use sms popup for texts. There is an app called notify me in the play store, that if you purchase the pro version you can set up different apps to have the screen turn on. The free version only allows sms.

Yes i agree, but in relation to the ringtone sound level it makes it more convinient. You can even adjust the level by using multiple files. But did google already "fixed" this since version Kit Kat?
