[Q] any kind of notifications, without turning on the screen?

As most of us know our beloved Note (1) doesn't have the "notifications LED" present in so many dumber and older phones.
After completely breaking the power button from just checking if there's any notification I've got a new phone and I'm on a quest for finding some alternative notification.
So, it seems that in order to actually GET that there's some notification you need to have talkback enabled and that's buggy (you get this spooky voice when doing certain tasks). FINE, I disabled (freeze) both samsung and google TTS (although I didn't really wanted, but OK). Then I get a hand icon in the notification area with "talkback activated". Ok, FINE. I'm using Flashlight Notifier (which flashes the camera LED) and it seems to be somehow working, except that it leaves the (camera) LED turned on continuously!!!
I seems that there's some other option to flash the soft buttons backlight but it needs some very old (I think GB) ROM and I'm not going there. For what is worth I'm on a stock new JB with speedmod kernel.
In short, any solution that "just works", getting extremely frustrated with all the stupid problems I run into? I need notification for gmail, hangouts, sms, missed calls, nothing fancy.

Whats wrong with vibrate and message/ring tone?
This is question. So should be in Q and A thread

a. vibrate/ring disturbs people around (especially when there are at least 10-20+ notifications coming every day)
b. you might step out briefly and you might not take the phone (all the time...) with you to WC and such. Yes, some applications allow for repeat rings (like the default SMS app) but that only makes (a.) worse
I think it is good to be able to just look at the phone and see that you don't want to turn the screen on as opposed to turning the screen on, see you don't need anything from there, turn it off.
If a mod wants to move the thread please and thank you.

Thanks, interesting but not at all what I want. Just want something to blink reliably ...
There's a whole cohort of software that does that but is usually geared towards making the "real" notification LED blink in various colours and also it usually shares the talkback (samsung) bug (but I'm willing to work around it).

NoLED seems to be fine (I was thinking for a long time that on OLED it might be a good idea to have some "few pixel" notifications, although I understand there is still significant power consumption even with OLED and few pixels on).
The device still deep sleeps (at least without notification) but of course this is the type of thing liable to kill the battery overnight.
Still, it works great and for most notifications I need it doesn't even need talkback (that's a big plus because I don't have to freeze TTS). And it looks great! Will report later or tomorrow how things go, with my luck I'll run into some issues in no time.

wow

The battery drain was extra 2-3% while me and the phone were sleep from 10pm to 6am. Acceptable. Good. With setting - noled always on and battery % while charging on.
Thanks.

lol, maybe they obtimized it, that is good news if true. The wakelock occurs when not charging btw.

Thank you everyone!
NoLED is great for now, battery life is good, it catching all I want (maybe except hangouts) without enabling accessibility and is better than I dreamt.
Maybe, maybe a little concerned with display life now (it looks like there is still some kind of backlight, not only the small icons) but overall it looks good!
Maybe some option to blink the camera LED would still be good but you can't have everything.

List of bugs on Note 3

I love this device but it has a couple of issues. I thought it would be helpful to list bugs in this first release of the software. I'm not rooted. These are mine:
Haptic feedback on menu keys sometimes stops
Air Command has stopped working. Its intermittent.
Sound controls sometimes don't allow me to make changes (right now I can't change notification sound level)
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app

I myself have not encountered the haptic-feedback, air-command, or sound-control problems.
The one problem I've found is that Google Hangouts won't do video calls via LTE. It pops up a message saying a WiFi connection is required instead. (The Note 2 used to have the same problem on ATT, but it was fixed about a month ago.)

Another annoying bug is that AVRCP 1.3 does not seem to be implemented properly.
Song/Media metadata does not get properly sent via bluetooth to receiving devices. This has been seen as not working at all to song information getting stuck on display and not changing when tracks change.
I'm definitely looking forward to a big fix for this one.
This has been seen on ATT, Tmobile, and Sprint variants.

You have to edit some code to allow video call on LTE. changing a 0 to a 1. Google to learn how. Can be fixed

But the workaround requires rooting, doesn't it? (For me, the disadvantages of rooting at this point outweigh the benefit of Hangouts via LTE.)

Whats the disadvantages to rooting?

The only bug that I have noticed is sometimes when I get an email notification from the stock email app, it appears in the status bar and then disappears within a couple of seconds. I've seen this a couple of times.
I guess we have to expect some issues since this is the first device out of the box with 4.3.
I really wish they would allow the widgets on the lock screen while having a pin for security. At least read only.

Some of the disadvantages are:
* If I screw it up, I could brick the phone, or at least make the phone unavailable while I have to spend a lot of time fixing it.
* Rooting will wipe my existing setup, requiring more time than I want to spend to re-initialize my phone.
* There may be security, stability, or performance problems that have not been discovered yet.
* If my phone exhibits any subsequent problems, even if they're not actually due to rooting, I won't have any easy way of knowing whether that's the case.
* I don't know whether rooting may interfere with subsequent OTA updates (unless I go to the trouble of flashing back to stock first).
* No one can rule out the possibility that rooting will void the phone's warranty.

screen and sound
has anyone noticed occasional brightness flickering? I thought it might be adaptive display or something like that, and i disabled it all, but I still see it.
also, I'm not sure what in the world happened, but my phone started randomly playing music. the music player didn't open, I had air gestures, off, and it wasn't ringing. I turned off wifi and the music stopped. In fact, i don't even think I have the song that was playing saved to my phone.

Rooting any device voids warranty. It does not trip the flash counter or Knox. Just flash back to stock or supersu unroot.
As for the other stuff, no issues here. Phone is as stable as it was on stock. Runs even better because debloated it myself.

Anyone else having problems using whatsapp with pen window?
It seems that when I minimise it from a conversation I then can't open it again or move the icon around on the screen.
Works normally if I press back to the conversation window first though

S voice gets weird with me too. Had it in hands free mode and it kept telling me something about my safety while it simultaneously read my text out loud. it kept getting stuck in that loop for any new messages.

Same here

Screen brightness and
Screen brightness issue: occasionally, when brightness is set low (not auto), when phone is turned on, screen turns on at full brightness for a split second then go to low setting level. Happens about 25% times.
Haptic feed back when screen off: after I turn screen off, if I move phone, I get a haptic feed back once. Doesn't repeat until I turn screen on and off again.
Edit: this is caused by 'smart alert'. Under Controls -> Motions. It vibrates when you pick up the phone and you have a notification and the screen is off to let you know there is something you missed.

[APP] S2W Phone Call Disabler

S2W Phone Call Disabler
If you have sweep2wake enabled, you may notice the touchscreen is active while the screen is blanked during phone calls. This app will disable sweep2wake and doubletap2wake during phone calls and re-enable them with your previous settings after the call is finished. I couldn't find a way to do it reliably in the kernel, so I made this companion app. It will work with any Nexus 6 kernel that has sweep2wake.
It requires no configuration, just install it, and run it once. After that, it will automatically work, even after rebooting.
There is one option in the app. Since this app only needs to be opened once, you can click a check box that will remove this app from your app drawer. If you change your mind and want it back in the app drawer, you will have to uninstall and reinstall the app.
This app shouldn't use many resources. It runs an intent service when the phone state changes. That means the app wakes up, does its thing, and then stops itself. In other words, it is not always running in the background.
This app requires root!

Thanks wanted to run your kernel but kept having issues in call.

Works great thanks man

This issue bugs the crap out of me. I'm testing now. Thanks flar.

I assume it's working good for everyone?

Working good for me I think I've had maybe 1 or 2 instances where the wake gestures didn't turn back on after a phone call, but it was probably just a fluke.

Keep an eye on that and try to remember the exact sequence of events where it's not coming back. I don't talk on the phone much so it doesn't get much real world testing.

Great idea for this app, I'm surprised that there isn't greater call for it, or maybe I'm alone in having major screen issues when in a call with 2t2w enabled.
My issue is that it never turns double tap back on after a call. I'm using LK with it set up through lkconfig. Anyone know a solution to this? Thanks

In fact I've experienced the same once or twice with ElementalX Kernel. I'm going to observe if it is happening again on my next call.
Edit: Tried it twice, no problems, so false Alarm. Everything working as it should be!

Thanks for the app, Flar2! I wrote a guide for this on my website (here), and also made a video tutorial:

Works perfectly, and removed from the app drawer. Screen is completely unresponsive (as it should be) when on a call with the prox sensor covered.
Thanks for this!

Hey @flar2 ... I think I may have found a sequence that keeps disabling dt2w and s2w. It seems if I get a call and swipe to ignore the call within a second or two that it's disabling those two features, they only come back on after I re-enable them in your ElementalX app.

My phone vibrates for no 'reason'

Greetings all,
I have a new Note5 and overall I like it.
As you might expect I have been working feverishly to find up to date app solutions for my usage model and that will work on an unrooted device. I despise all that conspire to force this upon us! Anyway I have been testing loads of apps and somewhere along the way something has been set to vibrate to indicate something. It is happening at fairly random intervals and nothing shows on screen or in the pull down that accounts for it.
I have looked for events that are pending, past due, etc. I don't get many texts. So, it isn't that. I have even turned on airplane mode which should prevent any kind of updaes or pushes that might trigger an notice.I have checked all of the apps I am using and none are set to vibrate only. From the initial turn on of this phone I have run package disabler pro for Samsung. Using a basic list from this xda thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/general/guide-bloating-touchwizzing-note-5-t3184563. I have restarted the phone several times as well
Can anyone suggest some kind of system monitor/logging app that I can load that will allow me to find out which application is triggering this? Is there some other way I can find out what is triggering this event? I expect that a logging app will eat battery more but on a temp basis that would be ok.
Thanks all and here's to someone finding a way for us to root our notes without messing up our warranty and secure payment...

If you are talking about how it vibrates when you first pick it up for seemingly no reason, then that's a feature. It's to let you know you have notifications. It's called smart alert, you can disable it in the gestures menu.

vibrate (and sound) for 'no reason'
Thanks _MetalHead_
But no. This happens when it is sitting undisturbed. I will check and turn off that feature if it isnt already so it isnt adding to the confusion.
If I didnt say, I find no idication of active alarms or notifications.
P

Do you have any Bluetooth devices connected? I had a smart watch with my S5. Every time it connected or disconnected, the phone would vibrate. This was especially annoying when I left the watch in the bedroom while sitting in the living room with my phone. Every few minutes it would connect/disconnect and the phone would vibrate.

Not clear if this is contributing. Will turn BT off to be certain.
Actually, I think I can say for certain no. This has happened in airplane mode.
That is why I am looking for a system logging application or some equivalent method.

Pie/One UI Impressions?

Using the US unlocked variant, I haven't yet received the pie update. However, just reading around, I get the general impression that the update isn't that good (buggy, lost features).
What are people's thoughts on it? Right now, I'm kinda glad I haven't gotten the update yet.

Looks like unlocked goes last for updates. I guess the carrier versions beta test for us.

I decided not to wait for Verizon Wireless to update my phone, and I saw a way to get it now on reddit so I pulled the trigger (go to https://firmware.science/ for instructions). It was brain dead simple.
Not sure what's supposed to be "buggy", because I have found zero issues - but then I've only had it a day now. Lost features? Not sure. Well, you can't set Performance mode any more in Device Maintenance (now called Device care), but I never changed it. And the Device Maintenance edge panel is gone, too. You can still get Battery, Memory, and Storage in settings. Also, you can schedule the phone run this automatically, now.
Night mode works (long as you're not using any theme). Battery life is impressive (lost less than 2% overnight). Edge panel icons are huge, now. Not a fan of that. At least Android Auto fully works... no more lost icon dock. That's the main reason I upgraded.
I mean, if you have examples of specifics where it's buggy or other lost functions, I'd be interested in what, but i can't complain so far.

Main issues for me
1. Multi window features are completely stripped down. No drag to popup, cant switch window positions without redoing the actions from scratch, etc.
2. Samsung Good lock customizations and routines are broken.
3. The interface is very erratic. Even Samsung apps with the interactive areas at the bottom still have the 3 dot menu at the top. Non Samsung apps anyway follow the old ui, so overall, its not that much of a benefit.
These were an integral part of my usage, so Pie is a disappointment for me at least.

Not that impressed so far; cannot add items to quick settings menu - you can only move around the existing icons.
Lots of things now require more tapping to get there, ie simple thing like checking batter usage now needs five steps: pull down on quick start menu>press settings>press device care>press battery>press battery usage.
Would be so much easier if you could just create a shortcut to this screen??
PIE/One UI just seems change for the sake of change. I've not seen any benefits yet.
