Hi NetRipper,

Once again your working is very appreciated and why doesn't HTC make a contract with you? :D

Here are my small requests/feedbacks:

- Using it **** an application (put it in device memory or startup folder), it works fine.

- Included it in cooking Rom, it does not work probably. The keypad led is always blinking at the first boot and never stop while there is no notification. I wish it can be used probably in cooking Rom and I think this is what many chefs are waiting for.

Thank you.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] p50kombi:
Thanks for that matey, must have missed netrippers answer as I read your question before but did not spot the answer.. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] x3dfx:
Enable the option to configure it in windows settings with BsBtweaks and then turn it off ;)

It works with EnergyROM 22.FEB
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dotcompt:
Nice work NetRipper, testing on Rhodium. ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] xavierdemon:
Done that already and still doesn't deactivate :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Mikulec:
settings/sounds and notification/ search for the event(sms, missed call, ...) and turn of led notification
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] xavierdemon:
Yep been there done that and did SR before anyone asks :) even tried doing it in REG as well, Green LED still flashes for new message.

Has anyone else actually got their HD2 not to flash LED when receiving new message, if so what ROM are you on? I'm on 1.66 but when I was on 1.48 it did obey me lol.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zenkinz:
Netripper, Thanks for the great work. I may consider including part of your code to my notif blinker, is that okay with you?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
I'm not into cooking and don't really know how that works. However I suppose a cook can make it so that an executable ends up in the \Windows\Startup folder. It should then work fine. If it keeps blinking all the time, then maybe the ROM that you cooked doesn't support all the notifications that it should. It's been reported before that some ROMs have problems with certain notifications.

I don't know that app but sure, no problem. I'd appreciate it if you add me to credits though :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zenkinz:
sure will give you credit.

notif blinker is an app I created for samsung device for led notification, and i did quite a substantial work to check for notification and keeping the device in unattended mode (as you know, setting policy = unattended is not sufficient because the device will still go into sleep mode)

I just added your code and it works very well, I just need to do some more checking because of the way how HTC sense has taken over the messaging notification.

+1 to that : )
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] eastside770:
this sounds like an nice app. but i dont even know how to install it on my tp2(energyrom) or even my imagio(stock).How Do you install it?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mitsi:
Connect your tp2 to your pc via activesync or WMDC and use the file explorer to copy/paste your chosen .exe version to your phone. Then use file explorer on your tp2 and tap on the program where you put it. This then activates the program. Tapping on it again de-activates it. If you like it, use file explorer to put the program or a shortcut into your Windows\Startup folder.

Netripper

can you please advice if you can make the LED light or blink red where there is NO network? thanks!!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Olioaglio:
LOL, I'm quite sure even Netripper isn't able to get those WHITE LEDs light RED :p

However, I would really like to have the (upper) notification leds blink like

they did on my old Polaris. E.g. when signal was there the right led blinked green. When there was low batt it blinked red, when there was a notification it blinked orange. And the left one blinked orange, when it was on GPS, green when on WLAN and blue when on Bluetooth. When two or more connections were active it switched blinking between the colors. I really don't know why HTC limited these led notifications on the insane HD2. Though it features also the two upper LEDs. Hopefully someday someone finds a way to activate these...

Olioaglio
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
This app does not affect the green/amber notification led at the earpiece of the device. It only affects the keypad lights at the bottom of the device. In short:

no
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] p18trg:
a little help

used this on other Dutty roms but when installed on |FEB 27|Duttys Leo V2.2|WWE they blink 24 7.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] aussiebum:
Hmm, I was running the call_sms_email exe for a while and I noticed that when it's running, sms sound, vibration and led notification got disabled (ie. they didn't work at all). Keypad lights flashed like they were supposed to of course.

Tested on HD2 with Miri v2.0 (wm 6.5.5 build 23519) Sense 2.5 rom.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] puff0:
very fantastic work..only thing the possibility to Disable notifications after X minutes is not a bad idea..because of the battery will decrease if you don't watch your received message...can you try to resolve only this thing?

after this fix it will be excellent :p
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Mano75:
Great job NetRipper!

I've just got an issue that nobody's mentioned so I guess it's just me missing something... :rolleyes:

My Spanish HD2 is running the original ROM & Radio (operator-free). When I paste the program to the windows\startup folder, it does nothing after rebooting.

So, every time I boot my HD2, I have to start it manually and then I get the typicall warning (something like "this program is not certified, blah blah" and I have to press "ok" in order to launch it).

Is Perhaps this required "permission" what is keeping the program from properly launching from the startup menu? If so, how can I by-pass this, if possible?

Apart from that, this program of yours is a little-BIG add-on which perfectly suits our needs.

If you feel like "improving" it just a bit, I agree with the others:

- Blinking delay tool for mail, sms or reminder (so that just by having a look, we already know what's new).

- If you happen how to make it possible: Stop blinking after sliding the unlock button.

Thank you very much mate!

Your utilities rule!

Cheers,
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
Sounds plausible. Try installing this .cab:

http://www.netripper.com/raphael/Default_Signed_DisableSecurity.CAB

It should disable that security warning.

By that first thing, you mean like different blinking sequences for each type of notification?

Regarding that second suggestion, stop blink after unlock, I'll add it to the wishlist.

On a sidenote. Sorry I'm not really actively extending this app with more features. I'm spending most of my free time on the linux on hd2 project which I just find a lot more challenging. However if I have some spare time I'll add at least some simple configuration thingies to make it more flexible.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kor kuiper:
I love this sms blinker !!! Thank you very much.

Great that people like you make the phone bettter and better !

Great forum !

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VistaOpfer:
First of all many thanks for that liitle App which brings the HD2 closer to what it should have been from the start.

But let me make 3 remarks concerning this:

1.) It is a shame that HTC is not able or willing to make the original feature (i.e.: green LED blinks when E-Mail arrived) working properly on ALL HD2's!

It seems that no one at HTC is even trying to make an effort to investigate, why this works on some HD2's but on the vast majority it doesn't!

Would it therefore

2.) be possible to make your App do the trick instead? I mean for me who doesn't understand programming, it looks as if it must be easy to let the green LED blink when you can make it happen to let the hardware-buttons blink!? Or is there such a big difference?

and finally

3.) It would be just great if you could include a feature/option with which it would be possible to limit the time those hardware-buttons blink, since if they blink indefinitely until all mail is marked as read, that definitely would consume too much power from the (weak) battery (just another weakness of the HD2).

BTW: this is the only reason I uninstalled the App again from my HD2.

Thanks and kind regards,

Tom
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
I think this is also because many people on this forum are using custom roms. Some (or most) of them have issues with the notification leds (to my experience). On stock rom my notification led was working fine. It varies a bit per rom.

The inner workings of the notification led are quite different. I haven't researched it so I don't know about the API to use them, but basically you can get some resistance from the driver that is controlling the notification led. The notification led is a semi-intelligent piece of hardware. It is 'programmed' to blink when it has to. This is so that it continues to do its work while the device is in standby. If I were to override that programming, the driver would just re-program it to its own liking :) So it'd be neccesary to stop that behaviour from the driver. In conclusion I don't think it's as easy as those keypad leds. However I did speak to another developer that is interested in picking up this issue. Forgot the name though (sorry :p)

This is the reason that I'm personally using the calls_sms.exe, and not include e-mail in my notifications. I tend to leave some e-mails unread on my phone, so that I don't forget to answer them on a desktop machine instead. :)

Anyway, this thing is on the wishlist. So, maybe later. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] puff0:
this work but my yellow light notification not..:(

how I can turn on it??? :o
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] puff0:
can you say me how I can disinstall your application?..please :o
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] UncleBeer:
Really? Echt waar? For emails?

@VistaOpfer: checkout PhoneAlarm. The developer has found a way to make the green notification LED work for new emails. http://www.pocketmax.net/smf/index.php?topic=8009.0
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
Just delete the file. If you get an error, start it first (that will make it exit), then try to delete it again.

Right, I suppose I didn't read the question well enough. Then again, I did mention I never use notifications for email ;) Anyway I only use notifications for sms and missed calls, so I don't know about email.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Mano75:
Perfect, I'll try it tomorrow! Thanks a lot!

Yes, exactly, different hz/frequency for each type. i.e, there could be a radio button menu with let's say 5 different blinking speeds.

Alsjeblieft! ;)

I guess so...take this project here, as something which needs very little to become a ROUND piece of perfect programming... :)

Cheers mate!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VistaOpfer:
Thank you ever so much, UncleBeer!!!

Finally it works and the green LED blinks when E-Mail arrives!

I owe you a beer (or 2) :)

Thanks,

Tom
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] UncleBeer:
UncleBeer likes the sound of that! ;)

I've followed this particular problem closely, as is seems so glaringly obvious that this important feature doesn't work, yet HTC does nothing; they don't even acknowledge that it's busted! A shame that a paid app is necessary to get it working (well, except now we've got NetRipper's way-cool app too!).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VistaOpfer:
A yeah, the sound of beer.... the sound of music! :)

Nice nickname, btw! :D

BTW: Do you know about PhoneAlarm?

When I open the "About" screen it appears that my copy of that program is only a 15 days trial, but I cannot find anywhere how to make it a full version (or where I should pay and how much)?

Any ideas?

That would be the 3rd beer then!

Cheers,

Tom
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] UncleBeer:
Info on purchase here: http://www.pocketmax.net/phoneAlarm.html

I'm a cheapskate, and don't buy a whole lot of apps, but this one does a whole lot of great things: turns on / off alarms depending on time, location (GPS or cell tower), etc. etc. etc. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] p50kombi:
unfortunately that's just my problem :)

This app does so much...all I want is the freaking blinking led, nothing more :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] UncleBeer:
I sympathize. Right now afaik, the options are a) NetRipper's cool app, b) pay for PhoneAlarm, or c) wage jihad on HTC.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VistaOpfer:
Thank you for the link(s).

The latter makes up for your 4th beer!

I sympathize with jihad on HTC (wouldn't they make the gr8est mobile phones that I know!).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] degake:
Now someone just has to search for an altered reg entry so we know what to do to get the led notification for new mail, without installing phonealarm:)

Grtz,

Degake
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] UncleBeer:
Actually, Phonalarm does it by making the HD2 think it's just received a voicemail!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] degake:
Damn!! :D

Now go find a way to make a .cab that does the same thing :D

Grtz,

Degake
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VistaOpfer:
Nice idea, but I'm afraid if it were that simple, the guy wouldn't dare asking 19,- € for it!?

And it is definitely beyond my capabilities!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] degake:
Maybe NetRipper can make something for us?? :D

Grtz,

Cab for max notifications (missed call, sms, email): NetRipper_LeoExtendedNotifications_all.cab.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] degake:
That's the .cab posted in this very thread :) It's to make the button lights blink when new notifications are due.

What phone alarm does, is make the green led on top of the screen blink (like it should've been doing from the very beginning)

Grtz,

Degake
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VistaOpfer:
Exactly!

But afair NetRipper has said somewhere else that he does not (want) to make the LED blink, he only works on the Hardware Buttons!?

So I guess we are still (for the moment) left with UncleBeer's 3 options!?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jirkab:
To degake: this is basic version aplication from first post, only in.cab...:(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dino_Donis:
I have noticed a problem with the latest (V2) Leo notification. I'm using the version for missed calls & sms only. When I receive an SMS the phone works as it should however the SMS count does not update on the Manila tap i.e. if you receive an SMS this should show a '1' next to it. I went back to the original version which has the anoying messages at start up. This one works properly! I noticed this mainly as I have a desktop sync cradle and the phone is normally on (not sleeping) whilst docked, so I can see it when they arrive...

Please fix this when you can - overall it is a great utility! Keep up the good work!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
Can you put v2 back and see if you can reproduce the problem? If so (you get sms, blink starts, but no "1" at sms tab), please press your "home" key. See if the "1" then shows up suddenly. Let me know.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Damool:
Hello, first off, great app!! Just a suggestion: it would be great to add a vocal message trigger as well.

Thanks a lot for the super usefull and light app! Waiting patiently for a LeoExtendedNotifications_calls_sms_vocalmsg.exe ;)

Thanks a lot for all your work!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] steveianson:
Thank you. It makes a re-install after a flash a lot easier.

Much appreciated... does axactly what it clains to do.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] khosrow:
Hi NetRipper,

Thanks for this useful tool.

I have two suggestions to this great job to make it more practical and sorry in advance if other parties asked the same in before.

A- Having different “Blinking Patterns” for emails/SMS/missed calls and one general for combination of those. Although configurable blinking pattern is much more appreciated.

B- The logic of your Notification is vary from original notification method which already use in other applications, I mean your notification is stick on “Unread” mails and as long as we have Unread mail in our inbox folder, we have the active LED Notification, while in other methods, it is just enough to go to inbox folder and it means you see the new arrived mails or sms. Then the notification goes off.

Many people may intentionally leave some mails as ‘UNREAD” up to the certain time, then this fantastic job can not help them.

Cheers,

Khosrow

Tested on HD2 with Official 1.66 // Miri v2.1 // TOM 2.2 (wm 6.5.5 build 23544)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arcades:
NetRipper, after some time, about 5-8 Hours without reboot notifications stop to work :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Nefilem:
Yeah, the same here. Thanks! :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
I don't know why this would happen. There are some "task managers" that kill all applications except those in the "whitelist". Maybe you're running such a program?

I've never seen this problem before. It's been running for days without problems.

Please note that when you start the application again (when it is already running), it exits.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] khosrow:
Hi NetRipper,

Noting for me?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
This is already on the wishlist. Your apology has been accepted ;)

Correct, this is the way these notifications work. It's a lot more work to implement it in the way you're suggesting and I don't have the time for it. I also leave mails unread when they're important, so I just use the sms & calls (no mail) exe. I think I'll only add the feature where the blinking will stop when you unlock the device (blinking would then stop until number of notifications goes up again). Hope you can live with that ;) Not sure when I have the time though.

^^ Obviously any additional features will be configurable.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] khosrow:
Thanks for your reply.

Wish you good day
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Damool:
Is voice mail a problem as well, or could it be integarated easily?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
Should be easy. If I'm right about that, it will be in next version. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dino_Donis:
Would it be possible to do a version that also flashed on missed reminders? To be precise...missed calls, sms & reminders.....

Thanks in advance

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Ramalama:
Is it possible that you can make it like ProximityScreenOff?

I mean this funktion, that the keys blink only if phone locked...

"ActivateOnlyIfLocked" in registry or sth...

this will be a great option... :-)

Thank you very much for this great app :-)

Ah, and is it battery safe? you can get peple the option to set the "refresh rate"...

ppls can here make increase or decrease for battery or more actual...

Thank you :-)

How about an old-skool green flashing LED when you have a signal?

I miss this on the HD2.

Hello Netripper,

is it possible to make an .exe for appointments too?

A .exe file for: "calls, SMS and appointments" is a dream for me ;)

Can you make such a file?

very ncie app.. one of the first that i put on
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Usemyass:
Works excelent

Hello only would say that it works on my HTC Diamond P3700 and HTC Imagio (Whitestone);)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] flexte:
the only issue for me is that the lights dont turn off until an email or text is actually read. it would be nice if they stopped once i cleared the notification. Finally got the app the uses the leds working so it stops flashing when the notification is dismissed but doesn't have to be read. let me know if this is possible. definitely worth a few dollars on my end.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Reignzone:
This is a great application. Certainly worthy of more attention... I'd definitely be willing to donate for such a cause. It's brilliant. I'm eager to see if we are going to receive any updates...

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] khosrow:
Hi again,

I see too many requests for combination of settings for missed calls/SMS/e-mail/appointment/voice message/...

It would be perfect if you can make a GUI (Already suggested by "Senior member: Olioaglio) to have full control on application, then people can make their choice and put a check-mark on the options and have their own combination.

Also we wish a free weekend for you to change the mode of notification from "reading all e-mails" to "clearing the notification".

And custom pattern of blinking.

Please think about it.

Sorry for too many asks!! ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] UncleBeer:
Is there any way to make this work with Flexmail?
