Dear Neldar,

Many thanks for your reply, however I had tried that too but the BLN still does not work in SMS.

Does it make my battery drain fast ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] neldar:
That depend on what phone your are using. The sgs2 implementation uses a wakelock, so it uses more energy than usual.

For all others phone: no, it does not drain battery.

I have always love BLN and love it even more now cos I have found a solution to my BLN not working in GO Sms Pro (after a week of trying all different settings, more that 20 different option combination)

The following are the conclusion that I want to share:

1) Turn Off Screen on option in GO Sms Pro Notification Settings (Though I must say that this did not solve the problem initially.

2) Turn On Disable other message notification in Go Sms Pro Receive Settings

3) Turn On BLN (I strongly recommend to all to buy the Pro version to say a big thanks to neldar).

4) Lastly (very important), Turn On Blink LED in Go SMS Pro LED Settings in Notification Settings. Customised the LED color to white. Customised the LED blink rate to Time On and Time Off empty in the values.

5) Even with BLN Control Pro without LED Blink, the BLN will just follow the settings in BLN Control Pro settings.

IF you want BLN to blink, ONLY adjust settings in BLN Control Pro.

Hope this helps. So come on everyone, get the BLN Pro!

Thanks neldar for your patience.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Tkbf:
Yes, sirbrian, you are right, my settings are the same with what you shared with us.

I just misunderstood your request to me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] untalented893:
Hey, just bought the pro version. Not sure if this was suggested before or not, but you should have the options to have different blinking patterns. I'd personally like my buttons to slowly light up one by one from left to right. I'm sure there are other patterns that could be thought of too. It would be awesome if you could make this happen.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] neldar:
That is akernel limitation, we still dont know how to keep the touchkey lights of the sgs2 alive in suspend/sleep mode. I hope that the just published bln for the sgs2 attract attention of other devs and we will see a improved implementation.

Thanks for this suggestion, I will see how this can be taken into account for the 4th re-design of the blinking service.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] arz:
first of all: thanks for the app! i bought the pro version to show my support...

i only miss one thing:

there should be a possibility (not sure if there are limitations) to set the brightness of the buttons (led). often i take my phone out my pocket to check, but i can barely see the blinking buttons. i'd love to be able to crank up the brightness...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] parknook:
Check - using nin 2.0.5 on Lightning 5.0

But I still get "the liblights on this device does not support BLN"

It works fine in sgs2. Is there a way to hide bln from running applications; And not to close when I close all open applications;
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] neldar:
What are the settings of the lowmemorykiller of your phone?

Please execute 'adb shell cat /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/*' and post the output.

Hmm, good idea, I have put that on the todo-list. Thanks.

The leds should have

at least

a lifetime of 10,000 hours (that is more than a year of continuous operating the leds).

That means that the luminosity decreases after 10,000 operating hours.

Sure, the the jvh kernel does also work with the jvr rom (except that the front camera still wont work.)

And I already saw a patched jvr services.jar somewhere.

You could wait until the activity will be automatically removed from ram, how long that may take depends on the usage of the phone. Btw, it is not said that an application is running only because it is still listed in the running applications. Keep in mind this is android, it is different from other OSs.

Or you reboot the phone...

Finally a solution for those people who necessarily want to have blinking leds. :D

I look forward to reports on battery consumption by this app, because it uses a wakelock solution. Maybe i could also add this to the pro version.

I noticed that a lot of SCH-I500 (Fascinate), SGH-I897 (Captivate) and some SGH-T959 (Vibrant) owners are using the BLN control app.

Could these people please report what kernel they are using?

I would like to include that kernel on this webpage (for mobiles):

I'm using an i897. You can take all the details from the sig. I'm using it together with missing call form now, until that functionality is implemented here. Works like a charm.

From the setiron' and designgears' threads, it's been working on kernels 1.3.5, 1.4.1 and 1.4.2 (all i9000 kernels) with perception roms 1-5. I can only comment on using it with the rom perception build 4 + setiron kernel 1.4.1 1.2 GHz.

How do you disable the APN?

What feature of the bln app do you think may enable again the apn?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Virnik0:
with Extended Controls. It is disabled, I can check it withing settings menu of the android itself. But then, when any notification is recieved and bln start to light up buttons, it everytime put APN on.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] SobaniForce:
And how many times does a "serious customer" have to be told that what they're demanding simply isn't possible? If you lack the mental capacity to understand why this is so then i suggest you give your phone to someone who knows how to use it and leave the internet for good.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] neldar:
It is possible, but not on all phones. The i9000, for example, has only one led (2 physical leds treat as 1 virtual led).

And I have already evaluated some use-cases regarding to this. However you wont see any result within the next 2 or 3 weeks, because I have vacation until 11th of september and I may not get access to a pc.

Intelligent Scheduler!

Hi neldar! Would it be possible to have in the Pro version an "intelligent" scheduler? I mean, let's say I get a SMS during my sleep time and it doesn't light the LED because the schedule was off. So, when I wake up (after the schedule is on), I'd LOVE to have the led lighting up if there's a "missing" notification that didn't show up before because the schedule was off... :D

Hope I made myself clear, but just in case, here's some steps to show this:

1) I'm sleeping. I get an SMS / email / missed call / etc and the LED doesn't light because the schedule was off

2) At some time (let's say, 8 AM) I wake up and have the schedule on in order to start lighting up the LED for new notifications

3) If NOTIFICATION_RECEIVED_DURING_SCHEDULE_OFF Then LIGHT_LEDS :p

Thanks!!!

You are missing kernel version. Custom kernel with BLN support is needed in order to make BLN work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] akayssi:
Sure. The kernel is the Nexus S Trinity TEUV (03/09). The *free* BLN app works with gmail and sms over that kernel. The Pro does not work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Virnik0:
Ah so, you do have BLN support in kernel then? I think that Neldar has wrote some time ago, that free version of the app is little bit ahead, comparing to pro version. You'll propably have to wait till your phone is supported in pro (ie changes made to free version are merged to pro - just wait for next update).

I do have different kind of problem: BLN makes my phone freeze.

How to reproduce: just leave your phone in standby, and wait till SMS is recieved, or somebody calls you. Ignore such event. BLN will start blinking.

Still ignore it, and leave it that way for ~15 minutes.

Now, when you press Home button, your display shall lit up. But your phone may pause blinking and not lightening display with 30% chance. You can still use adb and in case you are connected over wifi, you can ssh to it (if you're using dropbear or openssh).

Phone is not completelly frozen, but when you'll keep pressing Home, it will eventually self-reboot.

Basically, I'm running Ficeto's Deodexed JVQ, with DeepBlue Theme installed. My kernel is DarkCore 2.9.3

Closer info about my rom setup: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=818556

Basically, kernel should be fine, liblights are the same version like in the first post.

On other hand, problem may be in services.jar, which has been blindly patched jvq services.jar with bln diff.

Can some of you check it out? Do somebody have stock deodexed services.jar, patched correctly? Can you share it?

Thanks in advance...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] neldar:
I am back from vacation. :D

Yes, it works.

But my bln-reference kernel (3.0) is not up-to-date, the front camera does not work. So you may want to use another kernel.

An update for the kernel is already finished, but not yet tested.

That is possible and was already present in the froyo roms for the sgs1.

However for gingerbread it needs a little modification to the kernel driver to realize this.

You may receive this feature with the next kernel update.

Just to be sure: Did you activate the missed call option in the pro app?

The code base of the free and pro version to control the bln driver are the same.

Usually problems of 3rd-party apps are not related to the bln control app. Except that apps are explicitly supported by the control app (that is currently only the phone app). any other apps are supposed to use the common android api for led notifications.

These freezes are most likely related to the services.jar. Just try to replace it with the original services.jar, that should fix it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] _Freezer_:
Thanks :D

Welcome back neldar! Hope your holidays were nice!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] akayssi:
>> Just to be sure: Did you activate the missed

>> call option in the pro app?

Yes, absolutely.

The pro version is not working consistently for gmail and sms, and does not work for missed calls. The free version, on the other hand, works well with gmail and sms.

This for the same kernel, same low memory settings, same everything except bln app!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] neldar:
Well, there is no difference between the free and the pro version regarding the gmail app and the sms app. Both apps can handle led notifications directly through the android notification api and that means no control app is involved (currently only the missed call detection is included, due to historical reasons...)

But I think you might have incorrectly configured one of the led timeouts in the pro app, either the timeout for normal static leds or the timeout for static leds after blinking.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Virnik0:
Hi Neldar, can you please release patched services.jar for JVQ? Freezes are indeed fault of my services.jar. Maybe I'm just diletant and I have patched it wrong. Thank you very much in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Dan_Aykroyd:
Calendar Notifications... still in development for future implementation?

Neldar,

Thanks for your previous answer.

As I've read the whole 80+ pages thread, I've noticed that at the start (and in the OP), you mentioned that you were working to add calendar events notification to the Pro app. But ever since, I didn't see this mentioned anymore, neither by you or users asking...

So, is this still in development and will be released some day or have you dropped this functionality? I was waiting for your app to implement it instead of using a third party app like Calendar Notifier for this.

BTW, if you still need a spanish translation let me know and I'll help you with that. ;)

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] akayssi:
I am actually using the default time-out (not setting my own), disabled blinking, and I checked the box for Android-OS apps. Still no go for missed calls.

Nexus S GSM, TEUV 08/09 kernel with BLN support that works for gmail and sms.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] LordVetinari:
The kernel has to be modified (i.e. sources edited recompiled) to support BLN.

Check Google to get a kernel for your phone.
