Apps to control LED illumination bar - Xperia SP General

Hi guys,
My english is not perfect but i will do my best
I'm new here and that's why i post it here and it would be great if someone could move it to development forum.
I've seen some tutorials here about how to control the led bar with terminal but i have something easier for you.
There is 2 Apps to control the bar. I will try to make them better and try to add another features but i dont know when it will happen.
One of this app is based on sony illumination API but the thing is that you can turn on 3 leds at the same time with the same color. Maybe i dont know how to use it but i dont know how to change color of each led separately. You can turn on Pulse Effect here.
Second app is basen on DooMLoRD tutorial (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2439651) and here you can change color of each led and thats the only thing that this app is doing.
Yeah i know that this apps are so simple but maybe someone will have some fun while using them
If i will make something new i will update this thread.
Have FUN
PS: to turn off leds in app where you can control each led just set their colors to black.

Sorry to say but wrong section mate.you should have posted in themes and apps section

Great apps bro :thumbup:
Can you add features like music pulse music beats
And please please can you make it compatible with AOSP ROMS like cm11 and it's based ROMS

If you could implement the features like discolight it would be much more awesome

@LIONS1
I'm new to android programming and i dont know how to make apps comapitible with other ROM's, but i will try it.
Music pulse, music beats - like i said i'm beginner but maybe some day i will make it. This project is just for fun and i dont know if i will have time to implement all the features i would like to.
@mrjraider
I will

Firstly i think youve got the icon for the two different app in the zip mixed up and secondly how to use the the app that changes the leds individually for more other than just to see it can be done

It's not possible without root.
Also, you are in the wrong section of the forum. Questions about U are probably better answered in the Xperia U forums

@rundgong is it possible to turn on illumination bar when in certain apps? e.g if I set color to yellow for temple run, every time I launch temple run the illumination bar stays on with yellow glow and when I switch to hangouts it starts glowing green? (would love to set colors for different apps, I mean we have this huge illumination bar so why not make it shine through out the ui? why use it just for notification and not fun )
btw using your illumination bar pro app and I must say it is money-well-spend

It's not possible to do it properly I think. There is no easy way of knowing what app is currently running.
By using AccesibilityEvents you can probably find out some info about when an app is brought to the front. With that info you can maybe do something that kind of works, but not really.
But I'm not sure about that.

The best thing about this app is that it works without Rooting also :laugh:

Yes there is one just modify a launcher that reacts different, depending on which App is opened. Or just checkout these ways on StackOverflow.

[Q] How do i get this app to work on Android 2.1

How can i get this application (soved.eu/Torch.apk) to work on Android 2.1 (Rooted)?? It's CyanogenMod's Torch app.
I think you may try downloading a different one from the Market.

I can't find a app like that in the market. Otherwise i would'nt ask for it. But thanks anyway
doesn't the stock rom have a torch app that's pretty much the same? but anyways if you're rooted, there are quite a few torch apps that use the phone's led.
Yes, the stock rom does have an Torch application, but with the CyanogenMod's Torch's application the flash light is almost 4 time's brighter.
try tesla LED.
You will see the difference
Thanks!!! This is a really great alternative

[list] [R800x] feature/mod wishlist for possible future rom

I dont know if anyone else is in the same boat and hates the se theme, and wants a fully working Rom based off the stock vzw one but I sure do. That's why in making this thread to build a list of features and mod people would want for said Rom. Then if I can get enough support and help I (or someone who knows how to to this better as I never have) can make it. So please post what you would like to see or if you can offer some support. Thanks.
Sent from my R800x using XDA App
The list is as follows so far.
[WIP]Notification power widget
[ ]Power menu reboot options
[ ]Power menu screen shot
[x]App2sd
[ ]Xloud
[ ]theme chooser support (longshot here)
[x]Bravia Mobile Engine
[ ]Long-press trigger buttons for media (L - previous song, R- next song)
I'd like the above, but I really just want an ICS theme.
Most of what is listed is doable. I am watching this thread to gauge interest.
I know it can be done just not entirely sure how its done, later I'm going to compare my systemui.ak with the modded gsm fw ones that don't work and see if I can add it in. And also so far the list is only stuff I had on the top of my head.
Sent from my R800x using XDA App
The only what i wish is a fully stable and perfect running MiUi Rom for the Play who also works the touchpads and any other thing..
Also i wish me cyanogenmod 9 nightlys
Well I don't like miui at all so I won't be helping with that lol not that I could really help anyway the scale of the miui and cm7 work is way over my head.

The SystemUI.apk should be the easy part. It decompiles with ApkManager without issues. I was already looking to add this to mine. The harder part is the screenshot.
I also would love everything bladestonez mentioned, and if it could be on a cdma compliant 2.3.4+ build, I'd be ecstatic.
Highest priority would be aps2sd, for me, then the notification power widget, etc, etc.
Are there any camera mods to enable panoramic pictures?
I've seen scteenshot mods for UK roms before so now just to do digging
Sent from my R800x using XDA App
I would like 2.3.4 also but vzw is terribly slow on updates and I am just working with what's available
Sent from my R800x using XDA App
ok well im about 99% positive that i have fount what makes the notification power widget mod work and have tried to add it to the cdma SystemUI.apk but when i compile it wont include the additions its like you can modify things and it works but you cant add them. i have included a zip that should only need to be extracted and merged with a decompiled SystemUI.apk then compiled if anyone can get this added i would love you forever. also if you do get this added would you please pm me the modified SystemUI.apk or attach it to a post in here.
☻Fully working 3D sweep panorama
☻More Xperia PLAY launcher customizations (Themes, background, sort by, display only these and these games, recently played, most played, favourite - i know, let's create a second Game Center!)
☻Bravia Mobile Engine
☻Enable/Disable auto brightnes, ultra brightnes
☻Long-press trigger buttons for media (L - previous song, R- next song)
☻Camera: L button - focus, R button - shoot (and make it fullscreen, I mean no edges and onscreen controls - only settings, if possible transparent
The last 3 ideas are mostly from hatcyl so thank him
I know that some of these ideas are difficult to implement, but would be pretty sweet if someone would. Good luck then!

[Dev][Request] Motorola fire notify led application mod

i'm not sure if this is the right forum to post in,
but i wish a dev could help me since i'm just 13 years old that doesn't understand anything in java android development
so;
This is notifyled.apk from motorola fire xt311/xt316/xt317/xt530/xt531/xt532, all these models have the same method and led flash ligh above the screen, and all of them have the exact same notifyled.apk [check attachments]
the problem is: the application sends orders to the notification led only to light up it's blue color only when the owner of one of these phones recive an SMS/ missed call or when the battery low
AND doesn't light up the led whenever i recieve a notification from any third party like whatsapp, any im app, xda premium.. etc.
the request: can any body mod it or teach me the general rule of adding the applications to the .SMALIs inside the apk so it sends orders when i recieve msg on whatsapp fpr example ?
i really wish someone could reply.
thanks.

It's an interesting little app, I had a look and it actually uses a 3rd party receiver for missed call and missed message so it can in theory support other apps but I suspect those apps will have to support NotifyLed as well.
Can you post the SMS/MMS and Phone apps from the same rom? They probably have logic in them to call this app, I'd need to look at them.
Also, can you post screen shots of the LedNotify app since I can't test? Especially any screen with this text on it:
Code:
3rd Party Apps: ID(something will be in here)
No promises but since you're 13 I thought I'd have a look...

Thanks for your reply,
Here's the mms.apk
the notifyled doesn't have a gui, not even an icon in the appdrawer and it's apk has even no strings except for the app name and hello world !
Btw, sorry, i'm 14* lol.

Okay, so as I suspected the app that generates the notification must tell lednotify to blink or stop blinking, lednotify doesn't "watch" the other apps.
This means that it is possible to get lednotify to work with other apps (just like it does for phone and MMS) but those apps will need to change to talk to lednotify, not the other way around.
This makes it quite a difficult proposition unless the app devs wish to support it. It's not difficult to do by the looks of things but it would require code changes to all of the required apps.
Okay thanks i understood now
I'll have a look at the other apps like whatsapp or even email the dev
It's strange that app like whatsapp have led option but doesn't blink whill mms.apk doesn't have led option in notification settings but blinks! The same as phone.apk
Thanks anyway .

Feature requests for the Q

Question- What additional features would you like to see on the Q? So far I have additional features added;
Dual Mode
Browser
Clock
LinuxonAndroid support
Email
FTP/HTTP Server
Limited but functional Play Store
G+ services like Messenger and Stream
NTFS support when combined with StickMount
Zumocast
WiiMote as remote works with the proper app installed
Some things like are problematic as the kernel (no source) lacks needed services but I will work to find a solution.
I replied to you on RootzWiki as well (great work on the rom), but had one more thing: enable wallpaper support for the launcher! I have my home screen all set up, but it would be much cooler with a wallpaper.

I'd like control of that glow through an app. There was someone who made the lights show a clock but he never released anything. I believe it was called qclock.
Any way to use a playstation controller or getting a phone app created to control it?

[Q] LG Quickwindow tweaks/apps

Hello, I was wondering if there are some possible evolutions, of any kind that would be possible in order to do anything more with LG G2's Quickwindow.
While it seems to have produced rather mixed reviews, I like it and get feeling from the sole 3 screens available, that there could be a lot of potential to such feature, if only it were open.
Has anyone tried to add watchfaces, or to display notifications (sms/e-mail), to add features (shuffle/repeat) to the music screen, or even to create custom screens? I'd love it if this feature were to be expanded to something more than just a cool way to answer calls...

That seems to be a decent workaround, but it looks very time-consuming; i'll probably wait for a true opening of the the quickwindow app, if it ever comes
Haha I just accidentally found a function. In quickwindow mode push and hold volume down for 3 seconds (it should open camera)

Here is a post on the LG developers forum( click Mobile Forums>General, First post), that shows the code needed to utilize the quickwindow feature. No SDK ever apparently, but this may be helpful. Also posted today is this which shows that QCircle will get an sdk, so maybe we can use that and change the sizing and shape? I am not a developer, just an interested party, so let em know if this helps or not.
