[Q] app that vibrates every 5 minutes if notifications active - Galaxy S I9000 General

Hey guys,
i'm searching for an application or built in option that lets my phone vibrate every x minutes if there are any pending notifications that i did not react to.
is there anything out there that could fit my needs?
didn't find any "repeat"-funciton in tasker either.

i want something like that, for my missed events/calls/sms

yeah, me too.
my 10 year old phone could do this... and had a flashing led :-/

there is an app out in the dev sections here for galaxy s that uses the screen as LED notification sort of
ill have a look this week at coding something as its should only use a few Broadcast Receivers and not be too complex

I think this would be a better idea then the noled app to be honest!

Is there any news on this app?

maybe we could entince the developer of NoLED to include Vibration

Something like 'notify' on the mAemo platform would be cool. Had an n900 which had multi coloured configurable led but it was always nice to have audio notify every 5 mins for missed calls and texts.

notification light alternatives...

just wondering if anyone came up with different ideas for the notification light. i myself use flash notify app, it works great, however it only works for sms and missed calls. i hope they put in for email support.
NoLed is awesome, the developer does daily updates trying to perfect it.

agreed that is what I am using
I use Missed Reminder, a (great) audible alert app; don't miss having a notification LED like I thought I would (though I understand there are situations where you need to keep it silent).

I'm using flash notify. Wastes less battery then all other alternatives I think.

noled works fine... but the .apk i got from someone here on this forum FC'd all the time. Got the one on the market and it should be better this time....

[Q] Using capacitive lights for missed calls?

I wonder if some dev is already working on it but it would be great to be able to use the capacitive lights (under the screen) for missed calls and missed messages...
Checkout NoLed from the market..
Edit...
Aah sorry I see you mean the soft key lights...

NoLED can't do that. AFAIK there is no such app at the moment. NoLED is close though.
you should check out the nexus s forums. there was an app that can do that on the nexus s but a custom kernel had to flashed that had that functionality built-in. i think it was called bln (back light notifications).
as for noled, it is a pretty cool and very functional app. i used to use the very first beta releases when i had a galaxy s, and i was recently using the market version on my nexus s and it allows for the screen to show notifications of missed events, plus you can also have it give audio reminders every so often if you do not acknowledge a missed event

Notifications

OK I'm really frustrated trying to find a solution. Is there a way to get the screen to light up for a few seconds to a minute or two or keep the soft keys on the Note to light up and blink interval when I get any form of notification, mostly need for messages, miss calls and kick messages and emails. I have tried every kind of app, Noled, MMF, Tasker and a few others. The closest I got to was Llama, which lights the screen up but only for a few seconds like less than 3 seconds.
Really need a solution fast, I keep missing my notifications until for more than an hour, I am on PA rom 0.4a and not sure if BLN works, installed the app but doesn't seem to work, someone please solve this issue for me and the rest suffering in silence.
So surprised how such a basic function of screen lighting up when there is a new notification was available in as old phones as my previous N97mini but can't even have it decently working by downloading apps from the play store. I am so tried of Googling, have been doing so for several hours and I am sick of it. Someone with the solution or with their personal solution please post on this thread and share.
Sorry for the rant but really need this fixed soon, once again I'm on PA rom 0.4a

LightFlow discussion

I remember recently that there was an alternative to LightFlow being featured somewhere (forget if it was XDA or Reddit or somewhere else).
Does anyone remember it? I believe it was a bit more lightweight than LF.
EDIT: Decided to make this the general Nexus 5 LightFlow thread since that's what it pretty much became.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I could find and try this one only.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koo.lightmanager
But eventually I moved back to light flow because it works better for me in KitKat.
I prefer light flow. I like being able to set it to dismiss the light as soon as I turn my screen on. Quickest way to get the light to stop blinking.

Uncheck the foreground option in settings. I always uncheck that and I've never seen any difference, except the persistent notification goes away.

How about getting the led to be always on?
I've always liked it better than pulsing, and set it up like that in the Galaxy Nexus, but can't get it to work on the N5 yet.
is it worth having root mode on as well ?

I see the very first app i ever purchased on the android market for my old N1 is still getting updates (sept 2013).... TrackBall Alert Pro... also Trackball Alert..
updates say it will work with any trackball (hah i miss that thing) and RGB LED.. from what i remember it was a pretty minimal app that let you choose colours/flash rate/etc...

There's an option in each notification under the "light" tab for "LED flash rate" for "always on / very slow pulse". I have it that way for when my phone is charging.

[REQ][BOUNTY] Quiet Hours or Motorola Assist (Sleeping)

Looking for the simple UX, minimal UI and 100% functionality that Quiet Hours (CM10+) or Motorola Assist (4.2+ on MotoX) provide where there are no notifications, no LED, no vibration and only phone calls allowed during set hours. Both seem seem to be integrated at the system level to provide the user with minimal interruption for the set hours.
Not sure if this is as simple as pulling something out of CM/AOSP or looking at the Motorola Assist .apk or what.
I got $20 on this for anyone who can do it. If anyone else is interested, please add your pledge.
Why don't you just get an app like Llama (can be found on the Play Store) and set specific hours or locations, whatever you choose, to enable a silent profile with only calls coming thru. This isn't that difficult... simple free apk called Llama has done this for me every night since ICS.

LOTS of settings in there. Uninstalled.
If you haven't used either "Quiet hours" or Motorola "Assist", the screen shots attached show how easy it can be.
The first picture is of CM/AOSP "Quiet Hours" settings found in Settings>Sounds. As you can see, minimal in settings and it works.
The second/third pictures is of Motorola "Assist" on the MotoX. The third picture is the first screen you are given, where the second screen allows you to pick how calls are handled. Again, minimal and it works.
I appreciate the suggestions, but these two examples of what I would like to see are what I would like to see.
Before I fell in love with Tasker, I used Timeriffic, which has a super easy layout. I've also run CM, so I'm familiar with those settings, but really Timeriffic is more powerful (without being confusing)

The single biggest function I am looking for is something that allows only for calls (whether the first call or second) to come through during set hours 11pm-6am. Timeriffic doesn't recognize my XPosed framework and thinks that my phone and notification volumes are linked, where I have separated them. Unless Timeriffic can recognize this separation, I won't be able to get it to do what I want, which is to have no notifications between 11pm-6am, except for phone calls.

Here, try this. I made a Tasker app that you install and click the icon and it will set the volumes to the presets shown in the screenshot. Lemme know if you need anything changed, or want another app to revert to your normal volume settings. You dont need the actual Tasker app installed to use this, either.
