Is there a flashlight app/hack for the evo 3d that will keep the LED on after the screen goes off?
This and the keyboard are the two biggest things I miss from my My Touch Slide. :crying:
The Rom I'm using zr3dx has a flashlight built into quick settings that stays on when the screen is off. I don't know if it is included in Leedroid Tweaks or was added by Drop (the Rom dev) though.

If you are rooted, any room with flashlight from status bar pull, or if it has leedroidtweaks(comes with flashlight widget from status bar) you can turn the flashlight from there...hit the power button the flashlight is gonna turn off for a second, then turn back on, until you go back to the pull down settings and turn it off...
search for Flashlight on market, ive downloaded it and led stays on even when screen goes off
Thanks for the info. I'm glad to hear it's not a Evo 3D thing.

Every app I tried (20 or so) goes off when the screen is locked. Thus the post.

You tried that, it works for me. or it could just be your Rom?

I agree. Maybe the ROM you are using goes into such a deep sleep that it shuts off the LED when you turn the screen off.
try this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=droid.pr.coolflashlightfree
I've tried a few, but always go back to Tesla led. It does flash off for a second when the screen shuts off, but it will come back and stay on.

Anyone know of an app or mod that allows you to turn off the softkey backlight when you want? I read on my Vibrant at night & those extra bright softkey lights are hard on my eyes.
does not exist for any GALAXY S.

Really? I had Captivate with i9000 reoriented kernel and those softkeys were lighting only when pressed. So if you tap screen, softkeys do not light - perfect for night reading. Solution that I see - to find a i9000 reoriented kernel for vibrant.
I know there is one called "BLN" (Back light notification I think), the paid version lets you schedule when the lights turn on and off. I have mine scheduled to turn on at five in the morning and off at seven at night. But I think it's just for notifications and not turning them off completely.

Unfortunately BLN doesn't turn off lights completely. But we can ask developer to add such feature .
Anyway there should be some sort of hack for kernel to turn off those keys.

This is correct I know of no Galaxy phone that can do this either Sorry
This is disappointing. I know it can be done. Because there are plenty of members here that have turned off their BLN keys on accident by using SGS tools, and messing around with it.
So I know the script is there. Just, nobody has done it yet.
Dev,s anybody???
Come on- Let's do this.
Thanks
Bump. I would like this for the Samsung Fascinate. Anyone?
Have you try 'Keep the lights on' in market by Guardian Bob? When toggle Off, the lights stayed off when you tap the screen. Atleast it is for me, I'm on Bi-Winning rom.

It's not the app, it's the ROM. And they come back when you tap the keys directly. I think all 2.2.1 ROMs do this.
Same issue
The key lights really bother my eyes at night....has anyone figured out a solution to this problem yet......please help thanks
Has anyone found a screen off/lock app or widget that properly works with the Atrix? I have tried Extended Controls, Widgetsoid, and Screen Off and Lock. They all "work" in a sense but they also take you to the "Stock" lock screen before actually turning the screen off.
I used to use Screen Off and Lock, but it stopped working correctly with 2.3.4. I deleted it.

Below is a link to 'Elixir' in the Market. Give it a try, see if that's what your looking for. One of its widget shortcuts has a 'Screen Off' function.

*Edit*
After looking more at this app it won't do what your looking for. The developer says there's is a new version coming soon, so maybe then it will have that feature.

Same issue. All those apps mentioned by the OP worked beautifully before 2.3.4. I really had gotten used to just pressing a widget instead of the awkward fingerprint-reader-power-button. Now they just throw you to the lockscreen.
I hope they figure out a fix.

After an update, Screen off and Lock quit. It would lock the screen, but no off, even after a long time. Uninstalled and reinstalled it. Works fine again!
But, it does take you to the system shutdown screen first!

Looks like I found a simple little Widget that works well. You can give it a try see if its what your looking for. I just put the widget on my home screen, when it's pressed it goes in to a 5 second count and then shuts the screen of completely.

black tape it or use permanent marker
Hello,
I think ales47 is searching for the possibility to turn off LED only while charging. Otherwise, in normal use, he wants the LED to work normally.
Is it possible to turn off the LED only while charging phone?
Yeah i too think of the same thing. actually the green light is very much bright than the yellow one. i have to keep it upside down to keep the light off. other than that i have no idea to consider you.
or you have to use a light form or something (that it wont hurt the screen) when you charge. and the miss call notification is very annoying at night too. every flash will kill your sleep slowly. i have to clear the notifications before i sleep.
Any other suggestions?

Seriously, you are very helpful to us
haven't tried it out myself, but in settings - profiles you select a profile, and the last option PHONE, the last option again is LIGHTS MODE and is set in no override.
You could create a profile for the night with the setting switched to OFF.
Hope it works

I once tried the profile thing but i had no notifications. but this is regarding a light steadily lighting. i guess it is for the notifications only.
I don't know why it bothers you at night... at some point I can't even sleep without having light on phone... Put a tape over the LED? I just think it's not possible to change this...
Hey bro you really should search before starting a new thread
Have a look at this, i suggest you read the whole topic.

Hey guys
I just recently noticed that my Amaze capacitive buttons light has been staying on all the time. Even when I press the power button once and the screen turns off. Sometimes while the screen is off, the lights in the button seem to flicker. When I power off the phone completely, it turns off but the button lights stay on. Only when I take out the battery do the lights turn off. I tried using the screen filter app that can turn off the backlight for these buttons but it didn't help. This started happening after I flashed the CM10 nightly. When I switched to Speed Rom 8.0, the problem still continued. I installed Android Revolution Rom recently and the problem hasn't gone away. Any one know how I can solve this problem?
On speed rom 8.0 u have a tweak to turn them off completely or download kernel tuner and turn the capacitive light to 0%
I think there is also a modification you can make to turn them off in the build.prop I think. One of those scripts I can't remember which.

Already tried the mod and didn't work. Lights remain on. Even did the tweak that Speed Rom has and that didn't do anything either.
OK on speed rom 8.0 here is what you have to do click on energy tweaks, misc, capacitive light, always off, then click on reboot on top right corner check out the pics I made for u...

appreciate you going through all that work to get the screenshots, but I did exactly that in speed rom and it didn't do anything to the lights. I am running Android Revolution Rom now though.

Does anyone know how to use the front key lights as notification led's on our L9 since we don't have one? I found out how to use the camera flash as one but that's the back of the phone and i don't like facing the phone screen face down on anything in fear of scratching the screen.
If there is not a method already around somewhere to do this, how hard would it be to get this working? I think it would be a great asset to our L9s!

Please try the NOLED app. Probably a better option. Tried on my HTC Glacier. Works.

How does it behave for you? On my L9 nothing changed at all once installed and enabled :/ What settings did you choose? Do they flash after the screen turns off for awhile after the notification, and stay flashing until they are read??

I just chose the default settings, and it flashes the front key lights till the message is read. Maybe cause I'm using P760 V10h on my P765.
The app is a battery drainer since it wakes the cpu up each time the buttons light up.
Im hoping they can program this feature into future roms for the L9 where it just causes the LED's to blink until the screen is turned back up when a notification is received. Not sure if its possible to program the blinking to run without waking the cpu?
That was another concern of mine, but if it was integrated into the rom in such a way to not wake the cpu then battery life would not be affected as much.
