A Great Idea!!!

Im pretty sure we all agree that the EVO has sub-par notifications. It doesn't have alternative colors for the LED and when plugged in you get absolutely no notification, unless you use that app that I forgot the name of...
But anyways I was wondering if it would be possible to use the capacitive buttons as a Notification source.
Maybe we could have the home button blink for sms
the menu for calls, return for emails, etc. I don't know much about software development and all that crud, but I was just reading this idea on another phones forum and I figured it would be something extremely worthwhile for evo users, and in all honesty, its a pretty dam brilliant idea if we could just get it to work.
don't bash me if its not even possible. I was just simply trying to help my fellow EVO users by sharing a creative thought.

in the theme and app section there is apk that does this already well it flashes all of them for notifications

i tried looking for it and i dont see one. there is however a thread requesting a port of the moment for one...maybe im blind??? i could very well be...

i also just went through 6 pages..
anyone got the name/link?
thanks..
i coulda pulled the whole... WFFF deal.. but..
i want this too? hah
Thanks people

jr - awesome thanks. in my defense, i didnt do a search.. i just felt id take a stroll through that section and didnt find it, cheers

found it in 2 seconds
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=697430&highlight=notification+light
look at post number 8 for the apk

That app was for the Samsung Moment, it doesnt work on the EVO.....

You know this idea isn't half bad and it may be possible through a combination of the kernel and an application. For reference there is a hack someone made for the G1 that allows you to use the leds under the buttons for notification of the sd card. Here's the link:

That said, maybe we could use this idea to help us with this hack.

Would be awesome.

How are blinking buttons better than a blinking LED?

I think more convenient than flashing the capacitive buttons (which would probably use more battery too) is just flashing the LED for more than 5 minutes (indefinitely), and also flashing the LED even during charging, as I mentioned in this thread forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=712803.

the buttons wouldn't have to flash continuously. It could be just for a few seconds and we can set up reminders like every 5 or 10 mins, that way hardly any battery life is consumed..

Google is the only thing i can say, i haven't gotten into the .jar files yet. png, .9.png, xmls, so basically anything useful in an apk. And to think 3 weeks ago i knew nothing

[Q] Edit Mini Apps tray on 6810?

I apologize if this has been discussed, I really did search and only found one place where this was asked, but there was no answer. According to the Samsung 7.7 features page it says this "Mini Apps : Upgraded so you can choose and edit your own Mini Apps tray. You can easily access favorite features such as Calendar, Email, or PenMemo as a pop up over full screen applications. " So obviously my question is this. How is this done? Or is it even possible on my model? Thank you and again sorry of this has already been addressed.

If you look at the bottom bar on your Tab you will see an icon that looks like an upside down 'v'. Click on it and it will bring up your mini-apps tray. You can launch those mini apps over the app you are in.

I think you misunderstood my question. I know about the up/ down arrow and the mini apps. But it says that is is Upgraded so you can choose and edit your own Mini Apps tray. So Im trying to figure out how to change them if its possible on the wifi only 6810. Thanks

I was able to get it to work by applying one of the systemui.apk files from here. I am able to edit the mini apps now on my 6810. Thanks

Im not totally sure which one I used, but it might have been the one in post 19. But that one will change the icons as well. Im not sure where you might get one that is stock. The same author of that thread "Ssaass" makes an app called "Wizzbar" that might help you. I may be able to make one for you. Upload your systemui.apk and Ill see what I can do.

That would be great, I'm sending you my stock SustemUI.apk, now... how I'm going to change the apps from the mini-app thing? press and hold? ..??
I checked out that Wizzbar but didn't like it...
Thanks

Ok, didnt think I forgot about you did you? I think this is what your looking for. The edit function shows up when you press the mini apps button. Lower right corner, cant miss it. This is all stock icons with edit function built in. Hope this is what you wanted. I tested this on my rooted stock 6810. Let me know if it works.
PS: For anyone that might want to know how I did it. All I did was use the "layout" folder in the Res folder from the apk that has the edit function. Then rezipped, changed name and permissions, and put back into system/ app.

Awesome... Thanks for your time. I'll try it when i get home tonight. I'm thanking you now anyway...

Yes, it works, thanks... But what I didn't expect is that you can't add any app you want, it's just limited to some samsung "mini" apps which really su**s!
I wonder if there's a way around that...
Thanks again I really appreciate it anyway.

[Q] Question about xnote custom rom

Hello guys,
im quiet new to xda and to rooting as well.
i read, tried to inform myself and then tried rooting and flashing a custom rom becaused i really liked the idea to discover new features, looks and to empower my device.
anywayi rooted my device, backed it up properly and searched for a custom rom where i found xnote Rom and really liked it.
i flashed it with twrp and it works fine i just wonder about a little issue i have now but cant remember if its there from the start (since i flashed it this morning) but i guess it occured after a few and not immediately.
getting finally to the point, on the top left corner of the screen there is a white line just when the display is about to end, i dont know how to explain it better (the old iphone jailbreak (3gs,4) had a similar line in the middle of the screen when booting while the apple logo appeared, if this might help someone to figure out what i actually mean).
i made a screenshot from my homescreen but i doubt its visible from there because of its thinness, i tried to give you and idea of its location with the red arrow though.
i wonder how to fix it ? should i flash again or is it even a well known issue?
help appreciated
thanks for reading

It's a battery bar, some user doesn't like the usual "Battery" icon on the notification and want minimalism instead. So they remove the those icon but need at least an indication to know the battery levels.
Imagine the whole top line that showing up is your battery life.

OnePlus 6T Walls Changing on their own...again

I have to say thanks to everyone in advance. I have looked at sites and posts about this question to no avail...at least it did not fix mine
My wallpaper is changing on it's own every hour or 2...at least. It changes to these wallpapers, and the wallpaper is SORT OF "black and white'ish" I have rebooted the phone. I have looked into the accessibility settings and saw nothing and in the display settings and saw nothing. I saw that it says something about possibly having set the wallpapers from the selection "on OnePlus" Well, I didn't. The box is unchcecked.
In addition, the wallpapers that mine are getting changed to are all getting changed to that material typpe. Not only that, but they are being changed in a way that makes them look sort of black and white, while staying color.
Any help short of a factory reset would be appreciated.

Is it any possibility that's it is an app that you have installed? I know it's most likely not the case but just thought I would ask just I'm case

You said that very nicely and that means as much to me as solving the problem so thank you very much.
I'm going to look into it in a little while or when I get up in the morning and I will get back on here and let you know thank you again. you give me too much credit anyway I don't even know the best way to go ahead and check that. Possibly just go ahead and take any apps off my phone that have to do with wallpapers and start from there putting one back on at a time?

Just trying to help
But yes definitely start with wallpaper apps, those can definitely be the problem. Also are you using a different launcher? I know Microsoft launcher has a feature where it changes the wallpaper every so often. Let me know and I'll be happy to help as much as I can!

I normally use Nova but not at the time. As far as the wallpaper apps go I realized a better way to go would be for me to open up each one of them and look at the settings so I could find out that way. and also I picked out the names of the titles that had material in it as in material walls since the images were of that type. Thanks again. (how is the Microsoft launcher? is it just basically a launcher that looks like Windows phone?)

These look like wallpapers by the Tapet app, there is an option in there to change the wallpaper every so many minutes, I would check to see if you have that installed.

NBH (and everyone) that was the solution
Thanks and Happy Holidays
