[Q] Touch Key Notifications

[juandpineiro]

Hello I'm new to Samsung Galaxy Ace forums. I got the phone a couple of days ago So far it has been great.

The only thing I kinda miss from my previous phone is LED notifications. I did a little research and found an app (here in XDA and in the Android Market) called BLN or Backlight Notifications. The app is supposed to be used on the Samsung Galaxy S series phones with modified kernel (BLN-enabled kernel). Those phones, obviously, don't have LED either. The kernel mod and the app allow for the use of touch or capacitive buttons backlight as a LED notification.

Would it be possible to do such modifications to Samsung Galaxy Ace kernel? I mean, there's hope it can be done? I don't wanna waste anyone's time but I think it would be great to have this feature on our phones

yes it's possible.
if u wanna use stock rom, then get "CF ROOT KERNEL" (pls search in the forum here )
otherwise, Cyanogenmod rom comes with a kernel which has BLN enabled.

I'm currently on CyanogenMod 7.2 I'm giving it a shot

EDIT: worked like a charm! Thanks!!
