Just wanted to know if anyone else notice the different colours in the captive buttons. The light white coloured captives on the HTC one is running stock rom and the dark blue coloured captives second htc one running sky dragon v7 beta. At first I thought it could be the kernel but even with stock rom on both installed colours never changed. Although I am glad not to have any purple tint but gotta say started to prefer the blue look just as it stands out.
Yeah mine are pink on Viper.
I think it has to do with the brightness of the LEDs since white LEDs tend to turn pink and blue depending on their brightness levels. Unfortunately I haven't succeeded in changing it even with the Capactive Buttons app in the Play Store which is meant to do just that.

Its strange, even with max brightness no change, also the app worked for when some roms didn't have Capacitive button lights on auto.

Yep. No change. Its weird. Its obviously doing something because the capacitive buttons flicker off and then come back on but the brightness is the same. The only one that works is turning them off entirely.

Hmm you don't it could also be kernel related as theres the notification mod to flash the capacitive when theres a notification

I don't know. I haven't messed with kernels in a while. Mostly because I don't use my phone as much now that I have a Nexus 7 and it doesn't overheat unlike my One. I just happened to grab my phone when I saw your post and noticed my buttons are pink on Viper.

Cool man, yeah at times i prefer using the nexus 7 at times just because bigger screen but mainly on the phone more as need for daily use but did find nexus 7 2013 design to be a bit annoying when its hot compared to the 2012 model. Although got both 2013 seems to be same as htc one just alot bigger.

Well it's only recently but even at the highest backlight levels the whites are very very green, Reds and blues are there but not enough to make it look like it once did.
Replacing the screen at the moment is a no go due to the price of a replacement...
Any ideas on a fix as my SGS needs to hold me over till SGS3..
Thanks!
Use a kernel with Voodoo Colour, then install the Vodoo Control app. With that you're able to adjust the colour. In your case, you could turn down the green.
Having tested my screen for the better part of 3 days I think it's time for a new screen :/ Where's the cheapest place to get one?
Thinking my screen is finally kicked the bucket..

I'd check eBay.
What sort of notification LED does the Galaxy Note have? I've used three different Android phones since the original G1 and it feels like they're turning into pretty useless two or three colour things now. The G1 had a multi-colour LED, something like six or seven colour choices, as did my Motorola Milestone but my current phone, the HTC Desire HD, has a pathetic tri-colour LED. I was seriously considering the new One X but that has a dual-colour LED!
Anyway.. getting sidetracked. Can a Note user please tell me what, if any, notification LED the phone has and what colours it can display if it does have one? I know this won't be a big deal to a lot of people but I relied pretty heavily on the multiple colours in the past.
it has none.
None.
But, you can install a custom kernel that supports notification light and software to enable indicator light, such as when you have a new email. Then your soft buttons will be lit up.
I think there's also variations of quality on those soft touch lights. I had two Note, one had clear soft light on the soft button, the other had dirty looking light on the soft buttons. Both works fine, but just something to know.

as what jeremy.chan and hp79 have said that the SGN has no notification indicator. but if we are taking about custom kernel to have the touch key light as the indicator, it will be white in color.

The only notification LED you can have is the soft touch keys backlight. It will be white in color and you can change the blinking rate to your custom setting.
You require root and a custom kernel like abyss which supports this and attain the said functionality by using this app - https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsIm5lbGRhci5ibG4uY29udHJvbC5mcmVlIl0.
Hit thanks if it helped
If your on stock rom, install Noled app from market.
Thanks for the replies everyone, I appreciate it It's strange to see such a useful feature missing or reduced from what it started out as but I'm sure there are reasons behind it.

Bad Samsung user interface? Samsung arrogance? Silly patents? Doubt there's a good reason.
But you aint gonna change it, so you'll just have to live with it!

i never noticed it until i read your post. it's actually amazing!
It's possible make a notification like the iPhone 4 ?, whit the flash led, if you have a notification blink two times or something similar.
PD: sorry for my english
I know its difficult to see on the picture but my replacement black One on the right is darker at full brightness than my white one on the left.. I know they use different lcd's due to quality issues now and the white one has a stuck pixel so at least the black one is free from that it just doesnt look right and is annoying me.. and input?
Click here for screen shot
PS: when using the camera app the black one seems to always be focusing!! they are on the same settings, software and same looking at the same image, really strange
You are aware that you don't have the brightness turned fully up on the right device aren't you?

LOLOLOLOL that's an epic fail ... OP, surely you can see that in the pic! ... I have the black one and it only focuses when I touch to focus.
Yeah mines the same, works perfectly fine regarding that.
I have sorted the focus issue out with a hard reset they now both perform the same, the brightness is turned down slightly to show the blue colour better..
Is there any way to dim the back lights on the buttons at the bottom if my phone? At night they're very glaring
[SGH-I337]
nope i think, but its done a good job glaring ur eye to take ur attention, or u can use no led mod make use amoled as notilight instead of ur hardware button led.
ps, i wonder if those two light at da bottom were red light n glaring at darknight when both lighten up, it would be creepy to see from afar herherher
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
It is possible with a script. Someone made one but i cant seem to find it atm.

I dont know how fast they can be switched on/off.
But something like PWM should be possible. (See wikipedia)
Eg. Swithing on for 2 ms and switching it off for two ms makes the led seem less bright. The eye is slow, so it doesnt see the fast on/off switching.
When eg. Switched on 1microsecond and off 10ms they should be dimmed much more.
Regards

Interesting thinking! The only reason I asked is my old moterola atrix could do it. Thank you all for your help
Good evening all.
Is there a notification led on the front of the Rog Phone 2?
And if it is, is it a monochrome led or a multicolor led? If it's a multicolor led, can I modify the color based of notification (WhatsApp message, Facebook Message, GMAIL, SMS, Lost Call, etc.) ?
Thanks in advice
Yeah. It is multicolor. I think you can set it based off of the apps but I haven't checked. Also the logo on the back serves as a notification light if you set it up. But I think it might be buggy as of now.

Yes there is and it's multi color, you can change the color for apps if you use a 3rd party app like light flow. You can only set the color to 1 of 3 colors i believe (Red,Green,Yellow). The default system notification color is green.

It's not very bright.. i had a blackberry before and there it was much brighter. It is noticeable only when you look to the phone imho.

If you keep it on a table or bed next to you, is the LED visible if you glance at it? My earlier LG G Pro 2 has a very prominent LED. But the newer phones seem to have a LED that is so tiny and faint that you can hardly see it blinking or glowing unless you hold it right in your hand close to your face. I think it must be the same as this ASUS ROG II phone too. All the Huaweis and Xiaomis that do claim to have LEDs have the useless invisible microscopic LEDs.

Depends on height difference between your night stand and bed, but it's very visible for me when glancing over from bed. Forgot how much I missed having a notification LED!

Had a a OnePlus 6, then switch over to a pixel 3a which was great, but not very exciting
