Hello,
Can I change color or keep the led on in night mode for the capacitive buttons ?
I'm on stock OOS.
u can't change the capacitive button color on the phone, even if u're rooted, since it's not a rgb light like the notification led.
maybe there's a mod or a custom rom that can enable ur capacitive button in the night mode, which mean u should root ur phone. but until today i never saw that there's a mod/rom like that. also i think it's not a big problem if the capacitive button is off, i always set my capacitive button to always off

There y go
not sure if the same applies but worth a shot

I was taking a few pics against a bright background so of course, i couldnt see the subject. It would have been a cool shot if i could have used a flash but the camera's metering only gave me the option of automatic and off. Is there a mod out there that gives me the option to turn the flash on no matter what?
i have 3 flash options, auto, off and on.
I have to agree with shak7i
when taking a picture, top right hand icon i have the X to close the camera and under the X is the symbol for the flash, off, always on and automatic, i just select always on which is the arrow, and arrow with the A is automatic but you probably know this already!!
rather strange you only have 2 options, I know when the battery is below 20% that it is disabled but that just makes the options grey, and does not limit the options,
I just put my phone to a very bright window and i still had 3 options so not sure how to help you now!!( i thought maybe when its a bright shot that maybe you could not select always on but i could!!
hope you get it sorted!!
Really odd, I press the flash buttons and its either auto off or on
Weird - found it
So i guess i just missed it somehow. I just tested it on myself. Note to self: the flash is SUPER bright, not flash it in your eyes....
Flash ON = Photo light?
Resurrecting the thread...
I'm curious about the Flash ON mode. Is there a way to use the "flash" as a photo light? When taking pictures in very low-light conditions, you can't see anything on the screen! Once I take the picture with flash, I suddenly see improper shots (either a subject is missing or I'm unintentionally focusing on something else).
Bottom line is: Does anyone know how to really force the flash on to use it as a photo light?
P.S. I know about using the flash as a torch and going into the camera, but that's a little low-tech and cumbersome, don't you think?
sorry if i might sound like a newb since this is my first post ever here but i think you can "force flash" by having the flashlight app in the background and then opening your camera, hope that helps

How do you do that? My flashlight app always stops the flashlight when in background.

That's true, with the exception of the camera. Just go into the flashlight app, press the hardware Home button, go into the camera, and the flashlight app will turn on again.

Hey, thanks for replying!
I did that exactly and the moment I go to the main menu, the light stops. BTW I'm on a TMO US HD2 with TMo stock ROM.

No problem.
Yes, it does that, but once you enter the camera, it should turn on again.
If the light will not stay on for you, search the forums for "torchbutton"
I know it works, just tested it ....

Thank you for the suggestion, I will definitely check it out
just want to say that our roms have photo light behaving correctly
you press auto - it only goes off when necessary
you press on - the light goes on and stays on (until you change flash mode or exit the camera)
you press off - it goes off
Does it have to do with drivers?

So is it something to do with the camera drivers? Or can that be achieved by registry tweaks?
Something interesting: In my previous ROM, I was able to use the flashlight app and go into the camera, where the flashlight will turn on as a photo light. In the ROM I flashed last night (the one in my sig), I am unable to do that same thing! That's just weird!
Ive been looking for an answer for this too,
Ive tried several different roms & noticed that that the 'flash always on' option has only worked on stock European & roms without 576mb ram, (the last one i tried was kwbr 2.0 wm6.5),
The TmoUS based roms ive used the flash only activates in low light.
Hope some chefs can shed some light on this on... (sorry!)
If you switch to the video camera, there is an always on option ....
indeed it is driver realted, and not something that can be fixed via a cab either, it has to be cooked in.
all our roms (there are a lot) are 576 + tmous + flash properly always on
Hi,
Back again after a long time. In an old post I asked about a tweek that would leave the LED lights on the bottom of my Tilt II while on external power.
Can you help me again. I just updated my ROM an lost that setting.
Many Thanks,
JimJep
You can look at all of your posts by clicking on your name and selecting find all posts.
That's how I found this for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5231341#post5231341
Edit: Okay, maybe you can't click on yur own name and find your own post, but you can click on someone elses name and find thier posts.
I'm sure in the user CP there is a way to find all of your own posts though.
I was wondering if there was a way to control the LEDs when you get a text? I think it'd be cool if the light blinked blue instead of that orange color when you get a notification (text, email, etc).

In user cp, its "show all statistics" on the right side of the screen. That give you options for show all posts, or threads started... or just click on the statistics tab in the user cp
I think the OP was referring to the hard key lights, not the notification light.

I'm looking for this too. I found something for have it always on, not only on AC. But, it is slow to wake up with it... So, I would also preffer to have it only on AC...
ps : the app was made by netripper... but, I don't remember the post, but it's the same person who make the overclock for TP2, topaz......
What do i need to edit to increase the timeout of the capacitive buttons? Im sure everyone is in this boat - the backlight switches off after two seconds or so of inactivity...

Hi,
Thats an interesting one...I have no idea (until now I was a WM user), but I would be glad to kwno how to increase the timeout. Shouldn't it be locked to the display timeout? Would make sense in my opinion...

Bump......
What about setting the LEDs up to show notifications for new messages, new emails, missed calls, etc.?

This is nothing about development... please post in General instead of Development forum, you'll find your answer faster there next time.
oh really? i would say a) editing core android files is development and b) am i really getting advice from a noob?
There's this... Blinker - Button LED Notification
Still early days, but if he's got direct control over those buttons he might be able to change the timeout, and the app answers zyborg's post in any case.
I shall ask him.

I can't find the timeout... I guess its the same timeout like for the Lockscreen 5000ms.
I could only do a workarround, something like everytime when the light turns off... my app turns it on. But thats a little bit dirty ;-)
I imagine that this will not be easy, as there is a development thread over in the SGS forum about Back Light Notifications (BLN).
It can only be achieved through flashing a modified kernel - and as I understand it, the dev tried many different methods to get it to work until deciding on the current method.

I want my elocity menu keys to light up like they do on the new 10" version. Do you ever think it will happen?
I use (button savior) to bring button up on screen.

To answer you question... No.
Unless you plan to modify it yourself to make the buttons light up, it isn't going to happen.
Bummer!
I installed button savior which helps somewhat.
Quick question for those that have or have played with the device. I always like to disable Samsung's capacitive buttons and enable the onscreen buttons. This works fine except on the new Pro tablets where you can see the button outlines when they are not lit up. Is the S5 the same or are they completely blank when the back light is off?
Thanks in advance

well in the picture on the S5 page for xda forums, it shows the screen off with the outlines with the screen off.
or you could watch a video review or unboxing video and see if you can see the outlines there haha
currently at school, so i can't get on youtube

Yep, you can see the outlines.
Ah good find. That's sucks, don't want to have to look at those lol.

Hi Jmill... How do you enable the onscreen buttons on your S4? I have Wanam's latest rom... 4.4.2 NB3
