Now we have CWM - Notification Indicator??

Hiya all,

Well, now that we have CWM and could mess around with the phone with ease, is it possible for someone with the knowledge to try and get someone kind of notification indicator working on this phone? It could either be a Mod or an app, either one will be great, but while we wait for great ROMs coming out, maybe someone can work on this? I know we don't have any indicator LED on the phone, so maybe we can work on using the softkey LEDs to indicate things like missed calls, incoming texts or IMs or emails, etc. It will be great if it's customizable but let's just start with getting it to work with the notifications.

Thanks in advance

What happened to that app you once posted about? any news from the developer?

If someone can compile a custom kernel, it would be fairly easy to integrate BLN

The BLN mod turns the touchkey backlights into a notification led.
It enables any android application to use the touchkey backlights of your phone as a notification led.

No news from him. I will reach out to him again and see if he is more interested now that we have made much more progress, but I'm not holding my breath for him to follow up.

KernelPanic, I have no clue what to do with kernels so I'm gonna go n sit on the bench on this lol. Unless u or someone can instruct me on what needs to be done.

And yeah, it'll be great if we can intergrate BLN into the Rom.

I'll see what I can do. Maybe I can compile a kernel with a few tweaks and BLN real soon.

Thank you very much for any support you can provide.

Really much appreciated.

For now, those who would like to get some kind of notification via the softkey, Xigzil came through with updating his app to support our phone. You can look for the download here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...2#post22047422

Of course it will always be better if we can have BLN compiled into a kernel, much better to have it running natively rather than via an app, but for now, this can help us all.
