KNOCK² - LED was yesterday

[cupioscire]

First, I'm NOT the developer of the app, I just want to share it. It uses the screen to show notifications when the phone is in standby. It is something like active screen feature from the new Motorola moto x.

If your looking for the moto x notification try this it's awesome this is what I use. Plus its free and there's a premium feature which is £0.50 we'll worth it

Yeah, I've already seen this and it's quit good for now, after this short development time, but I like the nice animation of knock².

Interesting app, thanks for the tip, just testing! Is partially use of AMOLED also on Razr i? That would reduce battery use - just like on the Moto X..
Btw: anybody ready to trade (downgrade?) the Razr i for Moto X? me not..

Of course, it only powers up the needed pixel on AMOLED screens.

Black pixels don't use energy but still they needs to be lightened up - so a whole screen is lightened up(Moto X can light up only part of a screen).

Without proper hardware (low power cpu connected to sensors) imho all those programs are poorly working imitations. Overall experience will be far from original Motor X - there's devil in small details and all those features must work together to "work as they should".

No, you're wrong. AMOLED screens doesn't need backlight like e.g. LCDs. The pixels illuminate itselfs, so when the AMOLED display shows black then are this parts simply not in use (off).
Because of the AMOLED screen, the brightness/dimmer settings of KNOCK² doesn't do anything.
You can easily test that, what I've said. Take your phone with KNOCK² installed an running in background. Turn screen off and cover the part of the screen which shows the notification and simply send yourself a SMS or email or whatever to get a notification. You won't see that the black part of the screen get lightened up. If you try this on non-AMOLED devices, you will see it.

Well.. Actually the black color is much better on amoled but i do see that's not perfect black. I don't know about battery usage though.

Hmm, somehow it does not work by me. It looks lika I have enabled it in settings of Android, but still no notification on turned off screen.

Try ActiveNotifications; works great on the Razr i!

You have to enable the service for the apps in KNOCK² settings.

Thanks for your answer, but I have enabled a lot of them (Clock, SMS and some other) but still then I lock the screen (turn off display). Nothing appears. Maybe it is because I have Omar's ROM installed ?!

 

[metalmoot]

You also have to activate the Android stock lockscreen

Hi,

I use Dynamic Notifications, and I really like it! But there are two issues.

The "Breathing Notifications" are not working on my Razr I, it just does not show the Notification Again.

When Dynamic Notifications is enabled, the Notification LED is not working anymore. But I would like to keep the LED in addition. Is there any way to do this?

Another thing I am struggeling with: I would like to use the "Auto Wake" but this feature does not only show the notification when I take the phone out of my pocket, but also wenn I put it back it! In that way, I cannot use this feature because I don't want my pocket to control the phone Any thoughts about that?

Thanks!
