Re: [APP][ROOT][1.6-4.x] ButtonLED v1.5 (24/02/13)

Strange, 1.4 did work for me. But the new versions doesn't respond to notifications. While the test function does work. Already did a clean installation, but no luck.
[Android Apps and Games] rafael_mfr:
Same for me. Test works as it should but I can't make it works properly into mine ASUS PadFone 2, notifications are "ignored" and button leds never blink.

Tried 1.5Hhdpi already with no luck

Hi people, I've been searching a solution for this, but I can't find it. When the phone is playing music, and it skips to next track, it turns on the notification led, I've tried the exceptions, but I don't know what to write on it. Can some one please help me??

Re: [APP][ROOT][1.6-4.x] ButtonLED v1.5 (24/02/13)

I'm having issues with it going off with no notifications after the phone idles for a few minutes
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
Turn ButtonLED's logs on, and check for a pattern in the music notification (e.g. if it's always something like "Playing Artist - Song" you can add "Playing * - *" to your exceptions).

Can you try this?
[Android Apps and Games] nunoacruz:
Thank you, i'll try it, I tried, putting the name of the application, tried *.mp3 lot's of stuff but not that :)

EDIT: Thanks it worked the log says "09:47: little dragon - ritual union (detected)" and in exceptions I just added " * - * " and it worked

i have a wierd problem ..

the app runs fine ... i had to manually search for the backlights but it seemed to be the same and while testing it works ..it blinks .

but doesnt work otherwise ..no led lights up for any notification ..

in the log it says detected but i see no light

i should add that this is a MT6577 chipset device (XOLO A700), the hardware buttons donot light up if i touch the screen only when i touch the hardware buttons ..its kinda a feature i guess .

any help is appreciated ..used to work flawlessly on my HTC incS

Can you check the few posts above yours, please?

Does the FAQ help? The part about accessibility and compatibility, mostly.

Try the compatibility check (read the FAQ).

A logcat might be helpful :)
[Android Apps and Games] ctibor:
Hi, I have a Thl W5 Chinese Dual-SIM phone (MTK6577 dual-core chipset, 1Ghz processor speed, 1G RAM). The phone has a red notification led but it signals only the charging, nothing else by default. With the 4.0 factory ROM I could use the ButtonLED 1.3 version without any problem, I never missed a call or SMS.

Now the factory published a 4.1.2 ROM, I flashed it and the new firmware works well, but I simply cannot install ButtonLED again (nor 1.5 for JB, neither the previous versions). When I try to install it, after a few seconds the system writes "The app has not been installed". I've tried all three JB versions, but the result is the same.

Any hint or idea what to do?

Thanks in advance!
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
Do you have Google Maps installed (that's a Tasker limitation)? If you do, try installing using ADB (GIYF), it'll give you a more meaningful error.
[Android Apps and Games] ctibor:
GermainZ,

Thanks for the quick answer!

But I am far from being an expert...

First: I don't have Tasker installed (but you wrote at the beginning of the thread that it is not needed). So, is it a problem or not?

Second: the phone is certainly rooted (I mean the new ROM also).

Third: I think I know what ADB means (it is a command, from PC to phone, right?), and I might have it in my notebook but I surely don't know how to install an apk via ADB...

And finally: I have never heard about 'GIYF' in my life... :(

EDIT: I forgot the most important info: YES, I have Google Maps installed.
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
Not a problem. The limitation is related to Tasker: apps exported using it, even if they don't use Maps, will force close if Google Maps isn't installed.

Correct. One thing you might wanna try before ADB, tho: copy the APK to /data/app and set the correct permissions (rw-r--r--), using a root explorer. FX File Explorer (you also need to download the "Root" add-on), ES File Explorer (you need to enable "Root Explorer" in the settings) are free apps that can do that. Then reboot and see if it's installed. If not, remove the APK from /data/app and try using ADB to install it.

Once you have ADB set up and running, this will do:

adb install path/to/apk

Replace the path/to/apk by the actual path. Not sure about the syntax for Windows, I suppose it's C:/Folder/File.apk, but it could use "//", "\" or "\\" instead of "/".

"Google Is Your Friend". There are many tutorials on how to set up ADB that would be more useful than me offering quick instructions. :)
[Android Apps and Games] ctibor:
Thanks again,

I did what you said. It was easy with Root Explorer. The apk now sits in the \data\app folder, premissions are adjusted accordingly, but even after a reboot ButtonLED does not show up in the app drawer... :(
[Android Apps and Games] TheCrow1372:
Re: [APP][ROOT][1.6-4.x] ButtonLED v1.5 (24/02/13)

I just used ES File Explorer so after I downloaded it, just go into ES File Manager/Downloads and its there than just click on the apk and it gets installed. After this you just click on the new app in app drawer and follow the instructions and options the app gives you, simple so don't try to over complicate things cuz it's all laid out for you :thumbup:
[Android Apps and Games] demonicangell™:
did u tick button led in accessibility ?
[Android Apps and Games] ctibor:
Re: [APP][ROOT][1.6-4.x] ButtonLED v1.5 (24/02/13)

How should I do it if the app is not allowed to be installed by the system?
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
Please try installing it using ADB. Read my post above for more info. :)
[Android Apps and Games] ctibor:
I tried. That's what I got in the command line window:

But the apk is still not installed, I checked it in both data/app and system/app folder.
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
Your ROM is weird. Can you actually install other apps?
[Android Apps and Games] ctibor:
Yes, practically all of them. I recently upgraded from 4.0 to 4.1 ROM and ButtonLED is the only app among my old ones that I could not reinstall to the phone.

But it is true that my new firmware is a custom ROM, based on the vendor's latest official 4.1 ROM.

You might want to contact the ROM cook, tho, and let him know about the error when trying to install APKs via ADB.

Strange issue with "Sleep End"

Hi, thanks for the app.

After installing (1.5 MDPI) it worked like a charm, but i have a strange issue: i can configure the "Sleep start" time as it was designed, but when i click "Sleep End", i can see "ye s % ti m" on the "wheels" instead of the numbers. As a consequence, ButtonLED switches off every day at the given sleep time and never turnes back itself. Is it possible to solve this issue, or make possible to switch off the sleep function completely?

Thanks in adavance

nohab013

update: downgraded to v1.4: both sleep start and sleep end seems to appear correctly with hour/minute, but the selected values doesn't have any affect and returns to 00 00 next time i hit this menu apart from what i've choosen last time. But at least this version works, hopefully it remains the same.

Hi, since I couldn't instal 1.5 version I would also try 1.4, but I haven't got it and only the latest build can be downloaded from the first post.

Would you post here the 1.4 version?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] djsubtronic:
I for one would definitely love a patterns feature, maybe with a way to define custom patterns, like a sweeping wave of LEDs.

But maybe something simpler, could be to pick individual LEDs for different apps.
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
Not yet.

Try using 1.4.

It could be a flag to enable in the kernel's config, or something more complicated.

No idea, really.

1.4 will remember sleep start/end fine, it just won't display them correctly.

I don't think that's currently possible, but I'm not sure how GMail notifies you anyway. The log can be viewed from within the app, just tap "View Logs".

It's in the OP, just below the current version.

Here's the link anyway.

What do you mean by restarting the terminal?

Does the same happen with 1.4? I'll try reproducing it anyway.

[Android Apps and Games] chokitodopoder:
Re: [APP][ROOT][1.6-4.x] ButtonLED v1.5 (24/02/13)

It didn't happen with 1.4 when I used it, and started a few days after I began to use 1.5. What tricked me is that now, even though I try the 1.4, the same happens, so I thought it was a problem with some of my apps conflicting with it.
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
If you can reproduce it, a logcat would be helpful.

You can check the Tasker project to know exactly what it's doing.

Try adding exclusions to reduce it.

You're saying the app eats up a lot of RAM if you receive many notifications in a row. Does it happen every time?

If so, wait till you do and take a logcat as soon as possible (~1-2 minutes after it happens at most). You might want to use PMs as it might contain some private information, and use

tags.

[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
Thanks. I took a quick look at it, and I don't think I can do anything about it, sorry. It's probably a Tasker related issue.

Hey

Really loving this app on my Desire HD, works 100% on all my ROMs :D

One question, how do I setup exceptions?

For example, it's set to light up for all notifications. But cause I listen to music a lot, it flashes for that, but I don't want it to. Any help please?

Thanks in advance, and again , a MUST HAVE app for any phone with crappy notifications LEDs.. e.g. Any HTC device...
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
I'll try to add a way to exclude apps (instead of notifications' titles) when I find the time. Tasker doesn't support this natively, but I can probably use the "dumpsys notification" command.

That being said, try checking ButtonLED's logs, if all the music notifications have something in common, you can ignore them all. Post if in doubt. :)

Suggestion: Management of proximity sensor !!!

What would be nice is to include the management of the proximity sensor, for avoided consuming the battery unnecessarily when the phone in your pocket !

At least this would be good on my HTC One S on which it consumes a bit more battery than normal I think!
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
The proximity sensor won't have any effect at all when the screen is off due to a Tasker limitation, actually. Can't do much about that, sadly.

It'll work fine if you import the Tasker profile instead of using the APK, tho.
[Android Apps and Games] naudmick:
So you advise me to uninstall apk and passed by Tasker ?
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
It's the same thing, except that the proximity sensor will work as intended in Tasker. Note that you'll have to enable it in Tasker's settings first.

I have yet to come across an app here in XDA (and the far reaches of the net accessible via a google search :P ) that can manipulate the leds in the capacitive buttons in some way, not until now. I would like to try using your app, but I have another problem that I'd like to mention to you, since you seem to know a lot about manipulating leds. :)

For some unknown reason, my phone's capacitive buttons (recent, home and back) has led lights but they never turn on. It should turn on whenever the screen turns on, but nope it just doesn't do it. The only way I got them working was when I plug in my phone on it's charger, and it only works when I angle the cable's tip in some way, then goes off.

I know this seems off, but I'm quite desperate in getting help. I wish you can help me out. I'm willing to put up logcats and stuff, and possibly copy the files in the sys/devices/platform/leds-gpio, if it would be any help...
[Android Apps and Games] beafraid88:
can i use this by only installing the apk? its a little confusing with the tasker...
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
Just install the APK. :)

Check your ROM's settings, some ROMs have the option to keep the capacitive buttons' LEDs turned off.

If you find nothing, you're more likely to get your issue sorted out if you post in your device's Q&A/Support section.
