App to disable captive buttons

Is there an app that can disable the lights in the captive buttons?
I still want them to be functional, I just don't want them on.

I'll second this, from a theming point of view, this would be a desirable thing to have... perhaps someone could suggest a hack instead

I was about to suggest this app:
https://market.android.com/details?id=net.geekherd.softbuttonshack
however it is clearly stated that this is not possible on the Nexus S
*ALERT: The Samsung Nexus S will NEVER be supported. Not because I don't want to, but because it is not possible, I own one and I have tried and tried. Samsung (or Google) have decided that the bottom LEDs will always be on as long as the display is on, powered at the same time. Obviously breaking a few APIs as well as the ability to turn those LEDs off based on the light-sensor.*

Hmm well I've experienced instances where the screen is on but my buttons didn't light up. It looked pretty cool with a black background which lead me to start this thread.

Re - enable My Magazine. Open it and go to settings. There's only two things, the later is what you want.

Screen on notification

Is there anyway to stop the screen on Notification? I am rooted and I will happily delete a file or modify code if someone knows the answer.

What do you mean by screen on notification?

Sorry what I mean is when the screen turns on when you get a text message. I do not want the screen to turn on when I get a message.

Open messages. tap menu, settings, and then more. About midways You will see an option to preview message. Make sure that is not checked.

No that just prevents me from seeing who texted. I need to disable the screen from turning on

I did some surfing and found that the screen coming on is an AT&T variant exclusive and cannot be disabled. Sprint's version as well as Verizons does not come on. The preview option still lets it come on, just does not tell you what the message says. So you will just have to live with it unless you want to sell yours and get a Sprint version.

While that's not happening lol. Maybe I can find the build prop line and edit it. Thanks though. If anyone else has figured this out please let me know.

That does not control if the screen wakes up or not when you get a text. That just controls if it shows on the status bar and yes that is stock even for AT&T. His issue is the phone wakes on text and he does not want that. At least not so much that the screen lights up. That feature is an AT&T feature and cannot be disabled with an AT&T ROM.

It seems the attachment in the pic has the option for turning the screen on setting off. I like the stock tom and do not want to change it. Is there a way to just side load the mms.apk from his rom?

If you want to install and use safe strap then you can load and use the xnote ROM. otherwise due to the bootloader being locked there is no side loading on this version of the Note 3.

The post above yours by solarenemy (quoted below) seems to imply that sideloading mms.apk from another rom wouldn't even solve this problem (I don't know whether or nor mms.apk could be sideloaded - I think it could be, via the usual rigamarole for changing system apps):

This sounds like the sort of thing that should be possible using xposed framework... Though I don't know if any modules exist yet which do it.
Flashing ROMs would require safestrap, and could surely get what you want even within the limitations of the locked bootloader - but this is, I think, more dramatic than it needs to be to get what you want.

Your right. There was an option in Wanam. I would have never have thought to use that. Thank you so much.

I had the same issue with Note 2 and now with Note 3.
Fortunately I use Google Hangouts to handle my SMS/MMS and the issue does not occur with Hangouts app. I know its not a solution but I could not find a proper way to disable this with the default messaging app.
On a side note, I still have issue with Calender reminder pop-up which turns the screen on and there is no way to disable it. I have 100s of calendar entries synced through my Google Calender which has one of the default reminder set as pop-up on web interface which triggers the full screen pop-up on phone as well waking the screen.

Solved

In either case. There was an option in Wanam which gave me the feature in the mms settings.

[Q] [F340K] How to activate Knock Code

Hi,
I see the Knock Code feature working on a Flex in this video: w ww.lowyat.net/tag/lg-g-flex-knock-code-demo When I went to activate it in my Flex F340K Korean version, this feature is missing. Anybody knows how can I activate it?, maybe in a hidden menu or something?.
Thank you!.

Sorry but I still not found the option, I don't wNt to activate the double tap for lock and unlock the screen. I'm searching for knock code unlock, with this option you must push the screen in some zone like a pattern to unlock. As seen in the video linked in my first post.
Maybe is a future option that will be included in a firmware update?.

WTF !! we don't have that man...but looks very cool

After research about knock Code the video appears to be a preview of a next comming enhacement, the knock code feature is available now in G2 mini and will be added with a firmware update in some models like Flex,G2,G2 pro.... No ETA yet.
Appears to be a very cool option.

Does this mean this phone is always awake ? Could we see features like on the moto on this where google is always up ?(ok google)

I think that phone will be locked but when you lock your phone with a pattern or code you must activate the screen and then insert the code or pattern to unlock. with Knock code you will insert a push pattern with the screen off and will activate screen and unlock phone in a single step.

Lockscreen immediately

Are there any apps that can lock the screen right away? I noticed when screen timeout kicks in, the phone is not locked right away. I am looking for something that would lock it right away. Thanks

Go into settings, lockscreen, and scroll to the bottom and click on secure lock time. Then check imediatley. This should fix your problem.

The widget for greenify has one for lock screen and hibernate, but it may not turn off the screen.
