Froyo and color trackball + trackball wake

hi, I just update to FRF50. Just wondering if there are any apps out for the colored trackball and trackball to wake the phone? I had those when I had cyanogen.

Untill the source is released there won't be a 100% working option. There are mods from Paul in the dev section for the trackball notification. There are also lock screen mods for the trackball wake.

Look for "No Lock" on the market. It turns off all lockscreens so pressing the tracball will turn on/wake the phone, again disables the lock screen. It can be ran as an app or a widget.
As for trackball colors, the only one I found that works with original 2.2 non custom rom is SMS Popup, lets you change the colors of SMS notifications.

Trackball colours works with all new FroYo Custom Roms here on XDA

"blink" and "Gmail unread count" allow custom colors on non-rooted Froyo.
Successive notifications don't work x-app but it will allow you to experience some trackball notifications until the source is out for Froyo to get a "proper" implementation.

Whilst this works well for me, I do find that Blink can lose settings randomly. You ever seen this?

If you are on a properly deodexed froyo Rom, ie modaco r17, you may use trackball alert for colored notifications. You can get itfor free from the market. As for trackball wake, nothing yet.

Can't say I've noticed. Will keep an eye out

Never had it do that, instead it would often flash the SMS colour for no reason, with no way to stop it though.
That was annoying.

No Lock from the market works for trackball wake on this rom

running frf72..... using a free app called lockbot that allows to you wake via the volume buttons and the trackball. you can also customize your lockscreen if you choose. this will work for me until something integrated comes along. Don't forget to make sure its installed on your phone rather than the SD so that it will launch on boot. Also remember to ignore it in any task killer you might use.

I've been using no lock for awhile, works great with no ill effects t to the battery life. Running desire r21.

yup i'm using no lock on froyo FRF50 and it works perfect. lets you use trackball to wake the phone, and battery life is identical as well.

No LED blinking notification for missed calls and messages!?!?

What's up with that!?!? My last few phones all had that feature. Someone please tell me that there is some led that I'm not aware of.

There isnt one. alltho you can use some mod laying around that will lit up your phone screen LED or one that lights up your bottom buttons (home back search )

How long have you had your phone?
There is NoLED which you can get from the market or you can run an I9000 Rom that has BLN enabled. From their you can use a couple apps, Blinky or BLN Control. We have options that work really well.

I like the idea of having the bottom buttons light up, any link or name of app?

Most ROMs have it included. its called BLN (Back Light Notification). I dont think there is an app for it as i think it needs to be built into the kernel (Though dont quote me on that).

They have to be I9000 roms. Blinky app can work sometimes without BLN enabled on the Rom but it is highly recommended to run a Rom that has BLN.
OP: Just look in the dev section for roms that say BLN enabled. That will be your best bet for the menu lights. Otherwise, NoLED works great and it lights up your screen in small icons.

Miui with torch?

Hello!
I realy like the miui roms but there are some things that i could not get to work with it when i tried it last month.
What i miss is the support for ultrabright flashlight for example with n1 torch
i also want trackball alerts like in enoms rom.
is these things possible to get yet ?
Thanks in advance!

Of course, you have and torch and trackball alerts!

...from the market.

Not necessarily, you have the torch in notification menu and trackball alerts in settings - system - Led notifications. Both works perfectly.

Thannk you for the quick response, yes i know about the torch but does it support ultra bright mode ?

[Q] Notification lights

just curious if theres a way to make the 4 lights at bottom flash when you have a missed call our message

yep. its called BLN Control. you can get it from the market. but you also have to have a kernel that supports it.

Bln won't make them blink will it? Get bln then blinky
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

BLN Control worked, thanks guys. I paid the 2 bucks for upgraded version, it does blink. I already had the kernal, as Im using Continuum rom by Cezar. Great rom btw.
Now I have to see if it runs down the battery

You can also try a free app called NoLED which flashes icons on the amoled screen instead of the buttons. More informative since you can tell what kind is missed event it was!

[Q] Led buttons disable?

Hello guys, i have a serius issue with my Optimus 2x.
I wanted to disable the led buttons brightness so i found the "LG 2X/Black/3D Notifications" app to disable the led lights (i set up the brightness to 0), but what i realized was is that it drains a lot of battery, A LOT!!! (29%) after 4 days of usage.
So i wanna ask you if you know any mod that i could flash on my rom to disable the led buttons light....
(My rom is CyanogenMod-7 - NIGHLTIES)
Thanks in advance

I think the app your are using, other than being able to adjust led brightness, it also listens to notifications, which is actually its main feature. And this feature is what actually draining your battery.
Try this app called: touch key lights, this app is solely to adjust led brightness.
Cheers.

Wow great hope that will work, thanks man, cheers ;D
