How am I supposed to know I have a text or email without it oh god!?

OK life without it isn't THAT bad, but I do miss it. This is something the kernel must support right? I'm kind of hesitant to try a different one because whatever comes preloaded is so good.

I have used both. They work good for a while then BLN quits working completely. The Glitch Kernel doesn't require either to work. My device seems to run better with Jt's so it's a little give and take.

There is an app I also use called "Easy Reminder". No lights just tones and vibration but does work well.

No, I mean for both Blinky and BLN I get a "not supported" message. The mod isn't built into the kernel that comes with the CM7 nightlies.

I'm sure Glitch would work, but it's not nearly as stable (it actually softbricked me last time) and even if I try it out I haven't seen the "stock" CM7 kernel posted anywhere to fall back on.

The blood bath known as Chicago IL.
Grab jt's v5 kernel from Rom Manager. It has the bln module (nelder's). After flash it will work. But if you shut down to change battery or something and boot bln will stop working. At that point reboot into recovery and choose reboot system now from recovery and bln will work. In the future if you need to reboot device rebbot into rec and reboot from there and bln will work.


good day.
