[Q] no notifications led on s3 mini?!

Hi, I've just got the s3 mini and it looks as if it has no notification leds.
So there is no visible way of knowing things unless you open your phone display.
Is this correct, my phone isn't broken is it?
If this is the case the its lacking a very fundamental feature

man, i hope that is not true..i heard rumors.

SIII mini has no led.

notification led
It's true. The galaxy s III mini doesn't have a notification LED. I've got this phone since 10 days now.

i can confirm too, by the way it's a great phone !

it has no LED but the manual explains how to turn it on and off (manual says go to settings => display => notification LEDs).
the only thing is that there is no such menu in the settings of the device, which is weird to say the least...
let's hope an system update or custom rom will correct that.

I don't see anything on my device and the german manual says nothing about a notification LED. We also tested it with a app called "blink", the galaxy s III shows the LED, the galaxy s III mini doesn't...

No, it does not have a notification LED and there's no entry for it in the Settings -> Display menu.
You've got your manuals mixed up, since in mine no such thing is mentioned.

I'm using noLED app, which has a bunch of options and notifies me.

i'm speaking about official manual app that is in the app list. it is the same for everyone.

Oh, I didn't even open that... Yeah, seems to be a problem with it, since it presents a manual for the options present on the S III.
If you want the manual for the S III Mini, then you can download it here.

would this mean that samsung has issued a device with a manual and that this manual is about another device than the one it is supposed to serve?

So the consensus now is that it does not have a physical notification led or that it is disabled in software or something?

Definitely no LED notification light on S3 mini. You do have vibrate on pick up setting for notifications.

Hm, real shame, I was planning to get this phone as it looks to be the top android performer with 4" display (optionally xperia p, but that phone is hard to spot in my country + non-removable, weak battery & no memory card). How can something like this be omitted on today's phones?!

Dont worry about the led nottifications.. soon as the developer comunity expands im sure someone will relese a kernel with led notifications on the soft keys.(like the original sgs)

Did anyone hear about such soft-keys notifications? It would be really nice if the phone had this kind of visual notifications.

If you go to the s3mini original android development section, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2153107, you can flash this kernel by neldar and follow instructions on first post. I can confirm that notification lights are working...

I used BLN mod, which makes the light of the buttons function as led notifier, but battery will not be your best friend

[Q] No Haptic Feedback options?

TL;DR : Phone has no haptic feedback or any options for haptic feedback anywhere. I remember it used to have them, don't know what to do about it
I've had my S3 mini for little under a month, and I remember having haptic feedback while typing, unlocking and while pressing stuff, as well as a set of haptic feedback options.
It sort of slipped my mind being used to haptic feedback for a long time, but lately typing hasn't felt right at all on my phone, and it took a friend to notice that my phone has no haptic feedback in most cases. There is no option for it anywhere, either (no option in the default samsung keyboard, no option under Sound settings or Power Saving either). The phone vibrates just fine during calls and has all the vibration options, and there's haptic feedback for a long-press of the middle button that summons the recent app list, but that's pretty much it.
I also disabled power saving mode.
Early on, when I got the phone, I installed both Ultra Keyboard (used it on my old droid and loved it), which for some reason does NOT work at all (app has an unexpected error when I open up the settings, and if I enable it as default keyboard it simply doesn't appear on my phone when it should, as if I don't have a keyboard at all) and SwiftKey 3, which I didn't really like, so I just reverted to the default samsung deal. I have no idea if this is relevant.
Google searches have been very unhelpful.
Am I nuts and does the phone actually have no haptic feedback options? Or is something wrong?
Thanks in advance!

With your keyboard app installed use this program called SELECT INPUT METHOD PRO from Google Play. You can then select your keyboard input. There's a free version to try out first, if you like.

How will that help me? I've lost all haptic functionality on my phone, not just from the keyboard. That and I'm not using any other keyboard than the default one.
As far as I can tell this only provides a shortcut to the input selection option.
I don't see how this is even remotely relevant

Haptic must be there, if u install a battery saver app there's always the option to turn it on/off.

I've installed no battery saver app. I simply do not have options for haptic feedback anywhere anymore.

Just looked on Elixir app and it says Haptic Feedback enabled. Try battery booster put widget on screen and enable haptic in green.

i too used to have the s3 and since i moved on to the s3 mini, i have been missing haptic feedback specially on the menu and back soft keys.
i wish there was an option or an app to restore that function again.

I couldnt find it full stop, not sure if it was there to start with in the stock keyboard, I ended up grabbing "Keyboard from Android 2.3" off of play and using that as that does have Haptic feedback enabled, still not found an option for it for Hard Keys though....

install Elixir 2, open it, select the first icon 'information', scroll down, simply press on 'Audio' and the third option will be 'turn haptic feedback off'
It will disable vibration as you (and I) wanted...although when modifying the home screen/adding or removing widgets it will keep the vibration...
hope this helps

Yep can confirm it works.
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda premium

So, is there any way to enable haptic feedback?
I already tried Elixir 2 but it does not work.
Using 4.1.1 by the way.

notice that to....after i root it the haptic feedback setting gone...if flash original stock firmware everything seems normal...not a big deal for me actually...

How did u enable haptic feedback in Elixir?. What did u do exactly.

It is not about haptic feedback on the keyboard but on the back/menu softkeys.

Lock screen notifications no longer displayed.

Hi everyone.
As the title implies, my P10 Lite no longer displays any notification information when the screen is locked, even though I have set the notification setting to show all content. The notifications DID work, but simply stopped working all of a sudden.
I have also Reset all settings, but the issue still persists. I have gone through all of my themes, lock screen types, but they simply will NOT show no matter what I do. Some app notifications don't even pulse the notification light. The device plays the notification sound, but nothing is displayed in the lock screen.....
Please help.. This is rather annoying

If i use a lockscreen from the Theme app that is not made by EMUI i dont get notifications. Are you sure the lockscreen is made by EMUI?

You need to set the 'screen lock style' to 'Magazine unlock' found under settings -> 'the Screen lock & passwords'

Hi guys, is there anyway I can have "always on" Samsung feature on my p10 without using any app like glance plus etc. Thanks in advance.

As far as I know there isn't natively an always on display like on the s8 for the p10. The only option you have for an always on display is to use a third-party one like AcDisplay. (Correct me if I'm wrong though)
Edit: There is an option to let the screen never sleep during charging in developer options but I'm not sure if that's what you were looking for.

This finally solved my problem

After the update on my Huawei P10 Lite the notifications don't show on my lock screen. I tried everything - changed the theme (everyone I have), changed the settings and nothing. Every time I have to unlock my phone to see if I have some new notifications. Please help, it's really anoying.

Huawei P10 Lite notification doesnt show on lock screen after updating
Hi
Could you solve the problem with notification? I`m also struggling with that and dont know what to do,tried everything what was suggested.

Hello, I cant display the notification panel while my phone Its locked. After de update I could. Anyone knows what to do?

The problem with notifications on lock screen on huawei p10 lite i was able to solve on this way: As someone wrote earlier you need to go to 'Settings'-'the Screen lock & passwords' and set the 'screen lock style' to 'Magazine unlock'. Then go to 'Theme'-'Customize' and under 'Me' choose lock screen wallpaper that you want. The only problem that I have now after i've done all that is that notifications apear on my lock screen and make a sound but doesn't lite up. If anyone knows the solution to this problem please write.

the problem is that i dont like magazine unlock, is there another way?

Can anyone who has rooted emui 4 phone(probably Huawei/Honor) extract it's default theme so we can figure out how to make a theme with lock screen notification enabled

Huawei P30 Pro Screen Recorder

Greetings everyone,
About the built-in screen recorder, I was not able to locate the settings for it. As soon as I press the screen reorder icon, it starts to record without providing any UI or setting beforehand. I am curious whether it is only for me or everyone else.
Thanks

No issue here for me.
Have you tried using combo VOLUME UP+POWER? When using for the first time it gives you the options. Also, tdy by clearing cache/data+force stop app from Settings/Apps/Apps/3 dots upper right/Show system process/Screen recorder.
