Hey... I don't know if anyone has posted this here before but I found a fix to it although it's temporary (kind of). So basicly when texting I'd send my message then go to the home screen and turn the screen off, but doing that means it won't notify you to tell you you've got a new text, eg. through sound, vibration or in the status bar so I started trying somethings after each text I sent and it turns out all you need to do to make it notify you is after exiting to the home screen, just open and close the app draw Simples
Well it works for me anyway
Thanks but the???? Lol aghast you guys and your unrooted phones lol

I dont know if this is the right place to put this so move the thread willingly.
I was wondering if there is any way to get the Trackball Light notifications and the Trackball wake mod working in froyo. I know the source hasnt been released but maybe it is still possible... maybe
Patience my young grasshopper
Paul from Modaco says that he'll get right on it as soon as the source is released. He himself wants it quite badly (follow him on his Twitter if you want to know ASAP when it's released).

Then how do you enable them? We're you able to enable them? They don't work on my phone. Its back to the old white pulse every 5 seconds for everything.
hmm i have "Light" checked in google voice,ebuddy, and Gmail doesnt have an option in their app but i have "Pulse notification lights" enabled in the default menu.
Im guessing its up the app developer to select the color notification light.
Yep, really missing trackball wake.
As for the color notifications, they just seem to work here out of the box...
I dont think you need to open a new thread for this topic. Everyone waiting for it, cant you learn how to wait? Dont just ask for something, learn how to understand something. At least understand the situation, source is not release yet. So be patient!
DL screenmode from the app market and set it to screen lock off. Trackball wake up should work. Just found out about this yesterday lol

nice! just have to make sure you remember to turn the screen off when you're not using it...
I think trackball is much more useful. I got so used to it by now that its really annoying to use the unlock button at the top. Also its annoying that the Email light and the SMS light are both white....
Sitting by for further development i guess haha
Since HandcentSMS & ChompSMS no longer work - I've reverted back to 'SMS Popup' and the stock messaging app.
SMS Popup has 'LED colour' in the notification settings - so you can set to red, just like CM...

Umm ...
I bought LockBot Pro for Froyo for switching on with trackball, and it works great
(as long as you install or move it to internal memory)
The ChompSMS beta works great on Froyo too, and it makes the LED flash Green for me.

why? phone will sleep in 1 min anyway.. with or without screenlock..
never really understood who needs that locking feature.. doesnt the screen only respond to the fingers?
im using app called No lock. it removes that sliding locking AND enables trackballwake on froyo.. at least worked for me..

Handcent already releeased 3.0 that works with froyo. Been using it with no problems for a day now.
Most lock screen apps will allow trackball wake. Lock Bot works as well
There is an app on the market called no lock that let's you wake up your phone with trackball.
Hancent and ChompSMS both work now, and allow custom colors for your trackball alerts.
Google HAS enabeld the color trackball notif for the nexus one. See link below for use:
developer.android.com/intl/fr/reference/android/app/Notification. html
Now anny app can use those notifications, no need to be root. You can now just start having some fun!!!
I've noticed some of my trackballs notifications are different colors now but has anyone found a way to speed up the blinking?
So is there anyone that has developed something that will allow you to get rid of the unlock screen completely? I think it would be nice to just be able to hit the button and not have to slide the screen every time.
i havent used this app so i dont know if it works or not but it does what you want.
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.jraf.android.nolock&feature=search_result
I use Battery Indicator Pro. https://market.android.com/details?id=com.darshancomputing.BatteryIndicatorPro
The free version can't disable the lockscreen.
Just search for "disable lockscreen on the market.
Awesome! Thanks you guys!
On CM7 there is a feature for disabling the lockscreen.

Except that it re-enables all the time. (Issue 2121 on the Bug Tracker).
Been waiting a long time for this to be fixed.
I know there is a app that uses your proximity sensor to detect if the phone is in your pocket, and if not it will unlock your phone when you press the power button.
Going trough my app list now.
Edit:
Found it, it's called Intelligent Keylock Unlocker

I found the same, BUT!
Disabling instead from the recently added 'Tablet Tweaks' menu means it stays disabled. No idea what's wrong with the other disable methods, but this one works. Yay!

I love you.
Now i can reconfigure my Power Widget as i don't need that particular toggle switch any more!
Theres an app on the market called no lock. all it does is gets rid of the lock screen. I was using battery indicator pro for it but hated the notification that was always there.

Hi all i just had an idea for all the people that want a led notification when they miss a call or get and email, fb notification , twit anything really.
You could have the two led back and menu buttons flash when the phone is in standby, letting you know there is a notification waiting that you have not seen since the last your phone was on.
Now i don't know how to do this but i put the idea out there for devs could be some thing useful for some people?
What you are looking for is bln (backlight notification) which needs to be baked into the kernal. There was a thread about it in the dev forum. Seems to have died though.

Hi,
with the Omnia 2 we had the same problem. Somebody solved it this way!
Perhaps something like this is possible on S2, too?
Rgds
Agreed..Only needs to be a soft pulse to notify the end user

Yep, that's what the OP needed, a battery-draining solution NOTHING like what s/he had suggested...

+1.. Use NoLed , its an awesome app , but I always check my phone so I dont need any of these apps xD
Since noled keeps phone cpu in awake state, its non comparable to button light kernel hack (which causes almost no battery usage change at all, like on phones with dedicated notification leds)
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Yeh that's why i made the suggestion so that your screen is not on awake.
Having the menu button and back button to be personalized "like missed call for menu and back for sms " . This would be good i think
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
Funny because I was thinking of the lack of notification today, but want something different. I would like the led to light up like a heart beat when connected to usb charger. I simply hate that I can't see if my device is charging in the car.. how does this sound?
Hi all,
I would like to ask if any of you have this same thing.
I have tried to disable all of the smart stay / smart scroll feature of the phone, yet I still see the 'eye' icon in notification which indicated that the feature is still on. Is it just me or you guys have the same thing?
I already tried to turn off the phone, remove the battery, turn on again, it still there.
I don't want to hard reset yet, as maybe something else I could do, or maybe it is supposed to always stay there.
Thank you.
I9505.
On this phone the eye icon is always there but since no active - it is still dimmed. no problems all.

Hi,
If you go to settings/my device/smart screen, and uncheck everything,the eye in the notification bar disappears.

Hi, no luck. I try that as soon as you inform me. But it still there. Any other suggestion? May I know you using I9505 or I9500? Perhaps different built?

Finally I hard reset the phone. It's working. The eye is gone. Hope the glitch will not come back.
I am currently using Oreo March security patch, and the notification such as new messages, emails do not pop up but only show the icon of the app on the top left Conor which makes me feel uncomfortable. I have turned off the edge lighting and all the app notifications are on. But it just wouldn't pop up. Only after I reboot the phone then it works again. I also have tried to force stop the message app, not working well.
Anyone has similar experience? PLS help
