Does the Nexus S have some type of notification light or vibrates randomly?
No notification light, but will vibrate if you set it.

Negative on both counts.
Although, that second option sounds kinda nice. Wonder if someone could set up an app to do that.

Has this been mentioned before?...
Yesterday, I stumbled upon a new way to adjust the brightness of the screen. I
I'll try to articulate here as best as possible.
- Initiate the process of pulling the notifications window, by holding your finger on the top of your screen until the windowshade bar shows up.
- Do *not* pull down to reveal the notifications window. Hold your finger at the top of your screen for a fraction of a second.
- Slide your finger horizontally, left or right! So cool and handy! No more scrambling to increase brightness going from indoors to outdoors!
Reminder: Turn off auto brightness before doing this or brightness will auto change

Neldar: I already had a look at the nexus s sources and there is no way documented to control the touchkey backlight.
So i need access to a nexus s to check if there is an undocumented way.

For anyone who is wondering about BLN this is the answer i got today from the dev himself.
Thus, if anyone is knowledgable enough to help him out in accessing things in the nexus S we may finally figure out if we can get it

I think so, because it requires you to flash a .zip, much like a rom, in addition to installing the apk.

BackLight Notifier/Notifications
Basically to get around the fact that the phone has no LED alert, BLN (originally for the Galaxy S, but the same problem arises with the Nexus S) uses the phone's capacitive buttons as notification lights, flashing them like a normal LED. This is different to NoLED (a software based solution), as it requires a bit of hacking, as most phones do not have a way to control the capacitive buttons by default.

BACK LIGHT NOTIFICATION. its a subsitution for not having LED notifications. its built into the kernel so we'll see the dev will work with someone experienced that owns a nexus s. i hope.
Couldn't one of the google employees that post here point him in the right direction?
I'm sure they have access to any information he might need. After all, they are the ones developing the operating system for the phone. It would be in the spirit of openess
any progress with BLN??
So how long did it take for you to realize your phone had no LED for notifications?

Trying to video call someone at night is hard as it's too dark to see each other. Anyone know of a good app that uses the front facing flash as a torch/flashlight? Would greatly appreciate it if you do.
