[Script] Darkness in the dark hours

---

hi everyone
I present to you:

Darkness in the dark hours

this is a pack of:
- a script I made
- Gscript lite
- Screen filter(optional, but recommended)

I strongly recommend to you to read the whole post and only then apply my script!

A lot of users tried to find a way to do this, so I polished my script I used for Eternity to make it universal(hopefully )
this script made to work with rooted 2.1+ firmwares and busybox properly installed.

1. Install Gscript lite
2. To make this script revertable on the newer brand of kernels, you will need to add one line to hw_config.sh (because I just don't trust init.d scripts)
run this from adb or any terminal emulator from phone as superuser

echo "\n\n\nrm /data/noled_tmp_reverse.prop" >> /system/etc/hw_config.sh

3. in Gscript choose Add a script and name it whatever you want(e.g. NOLed) and paste these lines in it

#! /system/bin/busybox sh
# "turn off keyboard and notification LEDs" for ANY android firmware
# this script needs su access
# made by Adolf1994
# thanks for the help diimaan
# maybe final version - revertable
# requires hw_config.sh modification to be properly revertable
DIR=$(cd /sys && find | grep brightness | cut -c 3- | cut -d : -f 1 | head -n 1)
LED=/sys/$DIR
LED1=$LED:rgb1:red/brightness
LED2=$LED:rgb1:green/brightness
LED3=$LED:rgb1:blue/brightness
LED4=$LED:sled/brightness
if [ -s /data/noled_tmp_reverse.prop ]; then
chmod 00644 $LED1
chmod 00644 $LED2
chmod 00644 $LED3
chmod 00644 $LED4
rm /data/noled_tmp_reverse.prop
else
echo 0 > $LED1
echo 0 > $LED2
echo 0 > $LED3
echo 0 > $LED4
chmod 00444 $LED1
chmod 00444 $LED2
chmod 00444 $LED3
chmod 00444 $LED4
echo 1 > /data/noled_tmp_reverse.prop
fi
exit

4. tap on "Needs SU" then save

5. run the script and enjoy surfing at night without the annoying hw leds
(most likely you WILL get stderrs on 2.2+, but it's normal)
Note: if you get EMPTY stderrs, that's no problem. BUT if something is shown next to the stderr, like permission denied, then please report

optional. install Screen filter from market: https://market.android.com/details?i...=search_result
This is only for 2.1 and/or 2.2. On 2.3 I experienced a problem that's I couldn't press install in package installer activity. I nearly reinstalled the whole thing. You've been warned!

Night is over? Just run the script again and wait till the LEDs light up.

Q: Why modifying hw_config.sh?
A: Because if you reboot your phone while the leds are off, there will remain a file that normally indicates how the script should act upon running it. That one particular file should not present after boot.

Q: I'm on Wolfbreak's ROM. Won't that mess tweaks up?
A: In no way. Impossible. Unless you didn't follow steps properly.


hope you like it
and don't forget to press thanks button

can I use script manager to run this at boot?

I think it'd be fine

from gscript I get a bunch of stderrs, too. however, from a terminal emulator it runs fine, so no problem.
It's the most noticeable if the phone is on the charger, because you will see that the led suddenly switches off.
you can revert the script back with a simple reboot.

Sorry for being a noob, but what does this do? :$

It disables the l.e.d.s. It should be made a little clearer in op.

Is there a script to turn them back on?
