Well, neldar and morfic of xda have done it, there is now a working back light notification for the Nexus s! morfic has included it in his latest kernels, Honity12 and Honity14. but, you do need the BLN control market app to make it work. there is a free version and a pro version in the market, i recommend the pro version. it has much more options, including controlling the speed of the blink. heres a video demo of BLN on my nexus s--> http://goo.gl/tUcD6
also, heres morfics Honity thread, download links for the kernels are in the op--> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=973125
Fantastic!
I have been waiting for this
Working perfectly for me! Great work.

weeee finally thanks for letting us know
Cool it works. So pretty much we have to buy the pro version if we want it to be useful at all? Right now when I get a notification it turns on the button LEDs for like 2 seconds then turns off, and that's it, doesn't keep pulsing...
wait for this since i bought this phone now its perfect!!
waiting for a BLN kernel which work with the NSCollab ROM

yea, you do need the pro app to get the full features. on the free app, itll blink again(like every minute or so), just not right away.
thanks for the heads up! I guess it's time to change kernels for the first time for my nexus s. Didn't see the need to in the past, as I don't really need more speed.
backing up CM7_RC2 right now, and getting ready to flash the kernel and buy the BLN app
edit: sorry to go off topic, but does anyone know of anyway I can make notification sounds repeat like they did on NoLED?
can you control what icon will be shown
WOW sounds great
Question
Can i control it to the level that -
SMS will light the HOME botton
Mail will light the SEARCH botton
MISSED CALL will light both BACK & HOME bottons
??
Well, I'm using this kernel and it seems to be causing issues where the capacitive buttons are unresponsive on screen unlock. I think morfic is trying to fix this. I seem to have stumbled across a work around that I can't post on the developer thread(being "new" and all). Don't know whether anyone else has mentioned it.
If I leave the BLN test notification in my notification bar alone. Then the issue doesn't crop up any more and my buttons and BLN feature work fine.
Sorry, scratch that. That was a bit premature. The issue is back when I leave a notification unattended and lock my screen. My bad.

sadly not for all nexus s user
I've found a bug with the kernel where if on keylock you touch the shortcut buttons. Once you do that they light up and it doesn't fade away, only happens when I take it out my pocket. Also sometimes the buttons when unlock done illuminate and aren't clickable resulting in a restart.
Has anyone else seen this? If not it might be down to my set up.
Same problems here. You might want to try morfics s10 BLN v3 test kernel.

BLN is very buggy. when charging the phone and getting a notification it will cause the phone to freeze or reboot. Also when getting a notification and unlocking the phone the cap buttons will not always light. Locking and unlocking the phone will fix this problem but not always.
Even after uninstalling BLN, the cap button weirdeness persists. Only way to fix it is to restore from a backup or install a new ROM. I'm using CM7 11 w/ honity12 at stock speeds.
When BLN works its awesome. Hopefully they can fix these problems before I install it again.

Actually, what you need to do is use another kernel (which coincidentally happens when you restore a backup or install another ROM).
So does the backlight notification work if I just purchase the pro app from the market or do I need to install the kernel? I plan to install Og's kernel with voodoo features so I was wondering.. can multiple kernel be installed? No right?

You can only have one kernel at a time.
It's a pity it only works with some ROMs, I like to cook my own ones making them as tiny as possible, removing unused apps and changing ringtones and notification sound for my own ones
As long as you're basing your cooked ROM on a ROM that has a BLN-enabled kernel, you can use that kernel.
For example, if your ROM is basically a CM7 with some modifications, you can use any CM7-compatible kernel and it should work.

Problem is the ROM I like to use is a very stock one with some modifications done with dsixda's kitchen.
I'll start reading about kernels and how to change them, maybe I can combine my ROM with that kernel
Hi everybody, anyone who installed a custom aosp rom for lg g2 could tell me if the double tap to wake function still works?

Knockon Certainly does. However knockoff needs additional gestures/apps setup.

KnockOn works much better on CyanogeMod than on the stock ROM

So double tap to sleep doesn't work? And how to solve this problem? You know, the back button is not so comfortable to turn on and off the phone
Is the KnockON/OFF a software or hardware feature?
If its a software issue which app uses it in the system?

No knockoff doesn't work in AOSP until you setup a couple more things such as a double tap gesture in nova to activate a screen off app.

It's software, a kernel related feature even before g2, many developers created this feature for many devices (see PGM for nexus, sweep2wake or slide2wake for almost all HTC phones..and even xperia z has it...

I think G2 knock on (only on) is 50% hardware and 50% kernel
Because, when i try knock on while i cover sensor on top with my hand, knock on doesn't work.
No problem with knock off even covered sensor with my hand.
Does that mean that the ROMs and kernels have to integrate this whether on this device or another and there is no simple port for those with just root? In other words is there an app that can control this?
so what i really like in my stock 4.4.2 is the knock on /off and I tried CM 10.2 but sadly I noticed I dont have knock off...
I want a simple rom...I like how nexus clean version of android looks and feels..I want a minimalistic rom...
I really liked the option in the oneplus one to drow a pattern when the screen is of and activate a certian app if theres a rom wich include it ill like to hear(I guess maybe CM 11 but I havent tried it yet becuse its still in nightly version)
I have a VS980, and I have flashed most of the ROMs available in the dev section for it. I don't believe that any AOSP-based ROM is going to have knock-off, so you would have to use one of the stock based (such as Malladus or XDABBEB). These in general aren't going to have minimalist look of AOSP based ROMs though.
Your other choice is to run an AOSP ROM with Xposed. I know that the Xposed GEL Settings module has an option to set double-tap to an action, though that may be a premium feature you have to donate to receive (which I recommend anyway, as it is an amazing module).

Paranoid Android has knock on + knock off (you have to use the notification bar; doesn't work anywhere else as far as I know).

yeah but i dont want to reach every time...and it wont be comftrable while driving for example
Another option, if you're OK with using a launcher other than the GEL, is to install the Apex launcher. I believe it gives you desktop knock off in its free version.
Using this launcher, you can use any ROM you'd like, as long as it provides knock on. I think most ROMs for the G2 provide that.

I think you should search for voice controlled apps and such. I don't know if Google Voice can help you.

I meant I dont want to reach the notification bar...becuse the way the phone is set at my car I can reach the bottom half of the screen without streching....
anyway...Ive seen several mods that gives me full KNOCK OFF and I am currently looking for a clean AOSP style ROM to use...if someone have a link for a guide that teachs how to use 2 roms so I can test a new one without having to back up and stuff i'd love to get it
Hey everyone,
I have finally switched over to Nougat from MM and managed to get most of the functionality (Xposed alternatives) in some shape or form on Nougat.
I am however missing a decent way of controlling media tracks using long volume buttons (Xposed allowed doing it easily).
I tried Pocket Skip Track app and it is a little buggy and does not work everytime. I also tried making a Tasker profile following some of the guides, but am unable to trigger it always (whenever the headphones are plugged in)
Does anybody have a solution for this or perhaps there is a ROM that has this feature?
Apart from that I am quite happy with the upgrade.
I'd like a solution to that problem as well.
So far only superman rom have this wonderful feature i try all apps on playstore but they are all buggy...thanks Luca to make this
migrated to Superman ROM for this feature now. For some reason it was not working straight away but eventually started working and now all is good.
This works for me

Hello guys,
Lets say that I'm a basic user on my phone.. Camera, social apps, gps, browser.. that's it.
But something that I really miss from my previous phone (running CM), was double tap to wake and Greenify (Pro edition).
Greenify without root is a pain in the ass.. And those apps from Playstore to DTW are horrible. So my questions:
1 - Is worth it to root my phone because of those two features?
2 - Is there any custom rom or custom kernel that can provide me the DTW ?
Thank you very much.

Double tap to wake is not a feature or option in
any of the current custom roms for S7/S7 Edge.
There is no custom kernel or any mod which has
the double tap to wake feature for the S7/S7 edge.
Good luck, have a great day!

If it's only.those two features , I would say just stay on stock . I don't think yon need greenify as well. The native doze is doing quite good I think. And theres no way for dt2w .
