LED notifications? - Nexus S Themes and Apps

Is it possible for someone to create an app like this one https://market.android.com/details?id=com.martinborjesson.o2xtouchlednotifications but for the Nexus S? The backlight of the capacitive buttons flash when you have a notification.

Already is one...its called BLN control...u need a custom kernal that supports it...and most do...

Running the AOSP ICSV43 and NoLED works fine on my phone. I don't play around with kernels for now since all is being tested, don't want to be flashing the phone at every second.
Nexus S 4g sprint

nstool can set BLN to flash.

I really like NoLED but it sucked my battery, so had to quit using. Found a couple others on the market, loaded on kids phones, seems to be working okay without major drain.

Most custom ICS ROMs have notification LEDs preloaded now

I'm stuck..please please help.

So I mistakenly installed the i9000 voodoo lagfix kernal.......problem is.no voice calls on my phone. I'll tell what state my phone is currently in, and where i'd like to be, and any help i can get would be greatly appreciated.
Current State:
Firmware Version 2.2
Baseband Version I897UCKB1
Kernel Version 2.6.32.9
Build number Froyo.UCKB1
Phone build 1006
rooted/shell rooted/market enabled with SuperOneClick
I disabled the voodoo lagfix but still have the I9000 kernel apparently (splash screen and no voice calls)
Where I want to be:
Stock Froyo
Rooted (which I know how to do)
Voodoo Lagfix built on captivate kernel, not I900 (because I like to talk on my phone)
That's all I want. Odin1click seems to not want to work for me anymore, unless I'm apparently doing something wrong in my method of operation.
I cannot seem to find a stock Froyo rom? Maybe I just don't know how to search the forum, because I can't ever seem to find anything very easily.
Please someone help me, this is my only phone, and I had to borrow a laptop for the night, to fix my phone.
well........nevermind, imagine, after a giant pitcher of amberbock and a shot.......
first thing i do when i come home is get the correct kernel with voodoo lagfix installed
wtf. no more I9000! So I think I got to where I wanted all by myself, well i mean I didn't make all the oneclicks but you guys know what I mean!
edit: i did a quadrant, I feel I have the stock kernel installed but not lagfix as my quadrant is only 900 something? doesn't seem right cosidering
i was close to 1800 before on i9000 *sigh* Still would like to find a stock ATT FROYO rom Just in case
Quadrant means nothing. I ran two benchmarks one after each other with the same setup and got 900 and 1500. It only looks big when you compare it.

Just look for the voodoo folder. If it is there then it is installed. As for your scores that seems about right for a stock Tom, the i9000 Tom's will always be faster as they are more updated

Well its there just dunno if its from before. Also before whem I rebooted into recovery I would go into a 2nd screen that was red that would let me enable or disable lagfix.....doesn't happen now.....dunno if I really care though cuz at least I can talk on my phone now lol....anyone know if supercurio is working on voodoo sound built on captivate 2.2?

Yeah that was for the universal lag fix. Not voodoo. As long as it is there and no disable lag fix folder then you are good. It would not have carried over as the stock flash wiped it when you flashed the update. Not sure if he is as he doesn't have the device. And they are building kernals on more updated stuff then 2.2. Only time will tell if he does. I am more looking coward to the 2.3 port lol

I can recommend the camera app MagicHour which was also recommended by Roman Guy a few weeks ago. Even though it's a bit laggy, it still does a nice job.

yeah but i thought it was mostly based off cm7 and thats what i tried it on. miui has some odd quirks and doesn't have the greatest battery life on my phone or i would just run it full time.
the camera is almost worth it haha. the stock and cm7 camera's are pitiful when compared to cm6 or other stock cameras. touch to focus seems like a must have feature to me.

backlight notification turns off?

hey guys, im running cm7 with the platypus kernel which supports BLN. and its been working flawlessly even for handscnet messaging. however about 2 days ago i noticed the backlights would turn off about 5 seconds of staying on. In the setting there is so timout selected at all. and Even when i "test" the backlight notification it turns on and then runs off after about 5 seconds. Can someone please tell me what to do to fix my problem. I want my backlights to stay ON when i have a missed call or txt.
This should be on the kernel thread, the rom thread or the rom's Q&A. I assume you are using BLN app to set it up? It can be a kernel setting. Does that kernel or rom offer any special app for settings? Those would be the places to check.
BLN wasn't working for Glitch kernel on v13 either; same problem. Not that it helps you, sorry...
yea cyanogenmod has some settings everything is there though. BLN is working its not just fully working lol

Which is exactly what happened to many people on Glitch. Even the developers don't know why it's happening, so they dropped support for BLN.

I wipe delete. and restored my phone to a previous state. lasted a day. and then same thing.

Suggestions for me please

This is what I am looking for:
3d converter (movies too? haven't seen it...)
overclock
as close to stock as possible/very lightweight launcher so I can use SPB shell.
so far ARC looks closest to this, I just don't want to miss out on options I am unaware of.
Thanks all.
After careful trial and consideration, I decided to stick with 20p since I use this device for work. That said, I have tried every ROM available on that baseband. The winner is Mokee. Here's why...
4g does work.
Wifi works
No call dropouts/ lost sms/ ghost.
Killer interface
Fast as hell
I did not install gapps. I installed via market what I wanted. I like that market was included with nothing else.
Bluetooth works. This is the only ROM that connected to Wifi and bluetooth worked without editing.
Network connected without need of editing flex.xml.
Gripes-
3d is gone. however, the functionality of the ROM and speed of it outweighs the loss.
I have not tried any 3d apps, but having looked at the source, I don't see it being possible from this ROM.
Strange quirk I noticed, when charging by default the phone lags like hell. You can adjust this to your liking in the power configuration, which is far advanced from the default.
You need to install su for certain apps to work properly, and the integrated over clock force closes. As modders, we are not shy of these apps or setcpu. Use them. The kernel does not support above 1008, but I find with the power manager and setcpu on "performance" over clock is unnecessary. Battery life extends by single click, custom settings for the power manager is fantastic.
Winner. 8/10- if 3d worked, it would be a hands down 10.
Great job development team.

Glad you are enjoying your phone more with mokee...
You are correct that the 3d will not be able to work... I think pictures work and that's it...
As far as the overclock force closing I can't find what's wrong with that...
The rom is cm7 based so I believe other cm7 compatible kernels should work if you want overclock... but expect wifi bt and other radio issues... Swhy I figured the stock speed is more than enough...
I tried replacing the default superuser app but the rom doesn't respond well to that.. need to research that more...
I will be updating the rom soon to base off of the latest nightly so stay tuned...
Thanks!

3d camera is working in mokee, it switches the screen into 3d mode. Thus, it may be possible to integrate the 3d interaction.
If this is the case however, as it stands now, there is still an "on/off" ability for 3d. Using this Rom as it is designed now, in order to utilize the 3d it would need to be switched on at boot and would remain on until either the camera is switched on or off, or by full reboot from what I can see.
Any thoughts trek?

From time to time you might feel like that. But it does not mean that you can't tamper with a phone, especially a nexus one.
Yes if I would buy an s4 the only thing that I would is root it just for the sake of TB.
But with the nexus you can do anything and is super easy to return to where you were.
And no counter or avoiding warranty by unlocking the bootloader you just need 3 words to lock or unlock it and of course a backup
I don't say you have to become a crack flasher but trying mods and roms will make you have a better perspective and even convince you that stock is better.
Anyway, everything is up to you.
You can always leave it at stock and wait for that much desired OTA.

I used to feel like this. Back when I had a g2x I flashed because I HAD to frequently. Every ROM would inevitably become unstable and I would find myself looking for a new ROM to flash. Annoying as hell really. My n4 is rooted stock 4.2.2 w/ franco kernel for help with battery drain. I truly yearn for the day that I don't have to do anything to a phone. Not even root. Will the nexus line eventually come pre-rooted as well as unlocked? A man can dream can't he?

I don't feel like I need to install a custom rom with this device. Tweaking it with a few mods gets me what I need. I still don't get why some refuse to mod the phone because they want to get the next ota update. Once it is released, all one has to do is flash a rooted version that should appear here within 24 hours.

I don't understand why it doesn't come pre-rooted. Just like enabling the Developer options, there should be some method needed to enable root, aside from the whole custom recovery custom root solution thing. Normal users aren't exposed directly to root, and power users who need root, can easily enable it. And... new users can root too without the need of those toolkits :good:
