Few questions which I couldn't find using the search option
1-When I turn the phone to landscape and vice versa, the screen blurs just before auto rotating, is this a feature?
2-How can I see the battery percentage e.g 90% on top bar rather then that tiny battery icon?
Thanks a bunch!

I know it's an animation, but the texts and the whole screen blurs out for a second before auto rotating. Can you check it on your phone?
Yes, my second option was downloading battery app, but seems like Android settings only show tiny battery icon.
Thanks for the reply, appreciate it

Yes, it's supposed to blur out before rotating. And the HTC Desire isn't like that.
Download BatteryTime Lite and configure the widget to notification bar. Then you'll have it.
Thanks for speedy replies. You guys rock! is their any option or code to check call life timer? every phone has it
not that I know of buddy
Call life timer? Is that another power option? If so then battery time lite will tell you that amongst other bits of other information.

How is that done? The only option I can see in the settings is to pick your phone model....I'm new to android so I might be overlooking something obvious
Download it from the market mate, then long-press on a blank area of the homescreen > widgets > Batterytime Lite
Connect to the internet using WiFi or 3G. There's a gray bar with a small white triangle pointing upwards at the bottom of your screen, drag it up and you'll see a list of applications (apps for short). Now look for an app called "Market", tap that.
When it opens up, you'll see things to download, initially categorised by Paid Apps (which you have to pay of course) and Free Apps. If you look at the top-right corner of the screen, you should see a magnifying glass, tap that. Here you can search for BatteryTime Lite. You can just search for "Battery" and it'll give you loads more options.
Tap the ones you are interested in, you'll then see a button to install or buy at the bottom. Try the free ones first. To uninstall I usually go back to Market, select the "Downloads" button (same row as "Paid Apps" and "Free Apps" button when you have just loaded up Market), then tap your installed App, and you'll have the Uninstall button.
This is just one of the simpler way to uninstall, there are other ways though.
Hope that helps.
Tons of apps you can try for free, have fun.
Cheers - i'm fine with downloading, uninstalling & putting widgets on the home screen but is there a way of placing battery time lite onto the actual notification bar?
Not sure about BatteryTime Lite, but Battery Status has the option to place a battery indicator icon on the Notification Bar.
I've been thinking about this... and having had my handset for 2 weeks now.. and having had the same problems with the battery not last a full working day (if I leave for work at 6am and don't get back till 6..) I, like probably many of us.. became quite obsessed with it.. and wanted to know how many percent the battery had dropped during each half hour... we don't need to know this... we really don't.. all we really care about is.. will my phone still have juice in it when I get home at the end of the day.. and if you want to monitor the phones usage, install juice plotter.. then review it's data at the end of the day.. try it when your spending the day at home and don't need to worry about it running out.. I did that today..
Let the battery run flat over night and charged it this morning..
full charge at 1130 this morning.
9.5 hours later... 76% remaining... after some moderate use throughout the day..
I will become less obsessed when I don't have an issue any more.!!
ditto the recommendation for Battery Status Pro - it's free and works like a charm
Does anyone know how to turn off low battery notification and disable the LED notification as well?
Any thoughts would be appreciated
go to Settings -> CyanogenMod -> (something like "userinterface) and there u have LED-Notifications .. maybe there?!
Thanks, but I have no idea how to mid the settings

Wow, wrong post. Delete.
This app allows to configure recurrent notifications for each app that is using the standard Android notifications subsystem.
For each app, you can configure the ringtone, vibration, led color, number of repeats and interval of each notification.
Notifications are automatically cancelled if the monitorized app removes the notification.
Also, for each monitorized app you can configure if you like to be notified when a ongoing or clearable notification was created or if the created notification contains a specific text.
This app requires a special permission that needs to be activated after the install (go app settings in order to activate it).
Please, contact if you have troubles or questions.
Market Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ryosoftware.notificationsmanager
Compatibility:
Android 4.3 and higher for the standard notifications controller
Android 4.0 to 4.2 for the legacy notifications controller (based on accessibility permissions)
Thank you, been looking for something like this that actually works for a long time, just downloaded it, and all is working flawlessly at the moment, using the custom notification on my Yahoo email app, I can use what sound I desire now.
Thanks very much, will be upgrading to the paid version very soon.
Just a quick question though, is there anyway to disable the app notification icon in the status bar.
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for your comments. Appreciate it!
You can disable the statusbar icon clicking settings and checking the "Statusbar icon" preference
Thanks again
Your welcome, I have tried what you suggested to turn off the notification icon, but for some reason it is still visible, not a problem though, it soon disappears after I have read my notification.

Thanks, updated app about an hour ago, still works great, but having selected no icon in the settings, when i get an email, i get no notification sound now, it still works so well i have updated to the paid version of the app.
Again not to worry, it works brilliantly if i have to put up with that icon i will as the icon only pops up when i receive an email, then disappears after i have read it.
Thanks again.

this is what we need for LG G2
so we can control the LED blink
I've got a few questions
1. does this app can control LG G2 back LED
2. does this app usage impact battery life?
awesome app, must have
Silent notification

App is nice. Has a lot of potential.
Before bying the pro version:
I have set GMail as the app to work with recurrent notification.
When I set the "Recurrent notification" to silent sound I still hear the sound of the "original notification" as normal. Any workaround ?
Never gave it a chance due to app permissions
I'm worried about the permissions this app wants to be allowed. All text apart from passwords? Still enables it to collect credit card details etc.
Nah ah.
Sorry but I won't be buying this until i can test with more then 1 app (2 would be enough to test good). Also would be nice to be able to change the blinking speed of the led its too fast for my taste.

Sorry, this app uses the standard led API, that refers to the standard phone led. I think standard phone led is the front led. Sorry
This app has no effects in battery life. Service is sleeping all the time except when a notification is started.

You need to set silent also for notification in gmail.
This app develops notification and recurrent notification for any app, but you need to silent the stock notification in order to don't have double notifications.

Explain for permissions
RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: In order to receive boot completed at startup and initiate the service
VIBRATE: To allow vibrate
INTERNET and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Required by Google Ads
BILLING: To manage PRO version
READ_PHONE_STATE: Get events when phone call started and ended and silent notifications when in phone call
BIND_NOTIFICATION_LISTENER_SERVICE: (Jelly Bean and Kitkat) To receive notifications and interactuate
BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE: (Ice Cream Sandwich) To receive notifications and interactuate
You refer to a standard Android message that is showed when you enable accessibility permissions to any, but this app is not collecting none, and the Inet access is only used
by the Ads library (by Google). We are not collecting or sharing with none.

Sure. We can add vibration patterns in next release.
Sorry, more than one app is a PRO feature.
I wanted to disable vibration and sound for Viber and also set the LED to purple on my Oppo Find 5, but for some reason it did not do anything.
Any ideas?

Hi,
Have you entered "Notifications Manager" app settings and activated accessibility access or notifications access?
Is needed to activate the app.
Also, you need to disable notifications in Viber and enable notifications for Viber in the Notifications Manager app.
(I assume Viber is generating a statusbar notification when a call)
Thanks

Good looks! Gonna be keeping up with the progress of this app.
I've tried to use it on galaxy s4 with 4.4.2 and it does work for notification but LED does not work. I've tried with different colors but only use default one.
Any advice?
I cant seem to get this to work with a Nexus 5
It's too bad you can only test it with one app. What if multiple apps cause a conflict somewhere, how would we be able to identify that without purchasing the app? The trial version should be the full product with a time limit of like a week or something. Don't be stingy. =/
So afaik there is no root yet for Sprint, but will this be needed to change the taskbar icons, such as the battery to show percentages and stuff like 3minit battery mod and stuff?
Thanks!

So I just got home from Sprint with my LG V20, and one thing that I'm trying to figure out is how to make the battery into a percentage instead of that old school CM style battery icon..?? I had a Note 5 and have had android since it first came out but I can't find this setting anywhere..

FYI if you want a percent on the second screen Batterybot was recommended by another xda member (sorry don't recall username). It works well except when you have too many statuses showing on the second screen it gets bumped from view once and a while.

I use battery widget reborn (free) for the same purpose on the second screen, However, it's always the first notification on the notification panel and the second screen when the main screen is off. I first used it on my G5 so I would always see my battery life on the always on display. It's also highly customizable with the look of the notification pull down menu, showing up to 10 toggles, and also the ability to show the battery chart without having to open the app.

I am the developer of Light Manager. It is an app to configure notification LED color and its flashing frequency for different notification types.
For more info, you may go to the link below:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koo.lightmanager
Since Samsung Galaxy S8 onwards, I did not test this app with a real Samsung device. Most of the time I fixed the device-dependent issues according to the feedback from Samsung users. I know this is not a good way and it is not easy to fix a device-dependent issues without a real Samsung device. So I decided to get a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 to clear up some issues that piled up since then.
I have roughly tested the basic functionalities of Light Manager app on Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and most of them are working fine.
I will keep testing and fixing the old Samsung issues. If you have found any new issues, you may report here as well.
Thank you.

You can somehow generate a black color LED while low battery.
Just go into Light Manager > Low Battery and select "Custom color", then set the hex color code to 000000.
See if it works?

oh then ok it works. thx
I have been using the pro version for a long time
on my Samsungs, lgs, note 8 and now with my note 9.
the app works very good.
once in a while I have to restart the app from within the app to make everything work again. that's because sometimes it stops showing the right led color or it works during "sleeping time".
Any way, I find it the best app for me.
I AM JUST WONDERING what is the difference between the app I have (light manager pro v 12.3.5) and the one You show on the top?

Are you using normal mode or alternating mode?
Light Manager Pro has no advertisement. While the one shown on the top is a free version with advertisement.
I am using normal mode.
it's good enough for me.
What is the difference in the different modes? When I changed modes, trying to get alternating notifications, I lost the ability to get notifications on my Gear 2Pro. I went back to "normal" mode & it works fine but I don't see that I have alternating notifications. Now that my watch provides notifications, I don't use the LED the way I used to, if @ all really. But it's nice to be able to glance at it & know what app is alerting me.
Good app.
Will likely buy the Pro version! But do wish there was more explanation about the various modes & options
Nice app been using it for years have it on my S9 Plus and on my Note9 as well i use the pro bought it few years back @mckoo:good::good:

There are three operating modes:
1) Normal Mode - Only one LED notification color will be flashing
2) Alternating Mode - A few LED colors will be flashing alternately when multiple notifications are received
3) Screen Mode - Notifications alert will be shown on screen (For those devices without a physical notification LED, only available for Android 4.3 and above)
You are using Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and alternating mode is not working for you?

Yes, it should start up automatically if you have enabled Light Manager > Advanced Settings > Start On Boot.

Yes, I've always had it 'Start on Boot' since w/ my N4. I'm not aware of it running any task killer/battery saving app, as it's still running stock.
