Need advice on LED control and CM apps - Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps

Hi fellow note2 users,
I am looking for a way to set the colors for the notification LED. I just can't find the right app. can someone tell me how or what to use?
Other question is if there is a way to get the stock Android dialer and contact list like in cyanogenmod instead of the touchwiz apps.
Thanks!

Try Light Manager from the Play Store, that's what I'm using now and it seems to be doing what it should be so far. Thing is some colors are a bit off, but its still ok.
No idea on the Dialer though.

light manager hasn't all good reviews. but you think it should do the trick? thanks. can I just try it and remove it when not happy?

I use the paid version of light flow and give it root access. Just install an asop rom if your not a fan of tw?

OK, lightflow you all say. But what is that Talkback stuff people write about?

For me, Light Flow payed version had extreme battery drain...

Tasker not working on s3?

Hey all. Today I installed Tasker on my s3..I was trying to get "turn wifi on at home" working.. I followed tutorials correctly but it did not worked.
So I tried an easy on like - open music player when headphones inserted.. That did not happen too.. What am I supposed to do?

I use tasker, it is great. It has worked perfectly for me on ICS, CM10 and the Samsung JB leaks.
It sounds like you are missing something obvious, I take it you have ticked the "ON" box on the bottom right of the main screen to activate it ?

Can you just select the task and Press the PLAY button?
Does that open up the Music app.
I'm not sure, but maybe the Music app does get loaded in ram but isn't shown in the foreground.
Btw, you can easily do this with PowerAmp. No need for tasker
Yes tried play button too.. Doesn't work...
Btw I don't need the app for this.. I need to turn wifi auto on near home and stuff..
Also I did not bought the app.. I got the apk.. Does this has do do something with it?

If you download the apk from there website it has a 7 day trial. Uninstall then try the website apk and then you'll find out.
I had no problems with tasker when I got my S3 but I've moved to CM10 preview now.
Okay. Leme try

Smart Actions type app for S3?

Ok guys, let me start off by saying I am a noob to the S3! I've had it for 2 days now and love most of what I've seen! I am coming from a Motorola Bionic running ICS leak for a while and was pretty spoiled to one little thing! Smart Actions! I really didn't even use it to its full capabilitys! I really miss the most the volume controls! Ringer/notifacation alert volume controls, that is set to a specific timeframe! Like when I'm at work turned down to minimum level and vibrate on. Anyone know of a good EASY TO USE app like that? I've downloaded Llama, just cant quite get it to work right!
Thanks for any help!

Tasker is the king of all Apps. The UI could possibly get a bit overwhelming for not-so technical users. Automate It Pro is a similar app with a much better UI (although it has admittedly lesser number of features than tasker).
I actully found an app that looks like it will work for me! Cronos! It has a Lite and paid verson, I'm using the lite verson now. It's very simple to setup! Closest to "Smart Actions" I have found!
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Ok, thought Chronos was going to suit me. But no, has not seemed to work yet. And yes, Tasker is a bit over my head! Think I'll give that Automate It a try.

Ther are a lot of great videos on YouTube showing how to use tasker. Once you get the hang of it, it's pretty awesome.

Light flow gave me talk back issues. I hated this. I use light manager. No talk back and as far as I can tell it works perfect:
1. Lights are correct. (Blue is blue, red is red)
2. Light blinking is spot on. 1 second is 1 second, 2 seconds is 2 seconds and so on.
3. Again, no talk back issues
4. If you are rooted it has the option to add 3rd party apps.
One thing it doesn't do as far as I can tell is keep the light on when the screen is on. I hated this at first but to tell you the truth I really have gotten used to it, and I think I prefer this.
Just my 2 cents
Sent from my SCH-I605
Relatedly, is there a list somewhere of all the colors the LED is capable of (or is it capable of any color)? A Google search was unhelpful for me. Coming from a Thunderbolt with a orange/green notification light I'm hoping for something better.

Lightflow currently has issues with the phone and using it will force you to disable the Air Hover feature with the S-Pen.
I also had issues with the LED staying on after reading text messages. Bummer because I LOVED the program for my Nexus and bought the pro version.
I'll give light manager a try.. thanks!

I'm rooted as well. I installed and lost all Swipe functionality and every time I rebooted the phone acted as if I was using for the first time (help pop-ups).

The note 2 has red, green, and blue lights. It will make any color using those. My suggestion is to download light manager and test to see what I am talking about.

Are there an other alternatives that also customize the vibration repeat pattern? As somebody already mentioned Lightflow does not allow airview on the Note.

Capacitive buttons used for notifications?

Can someone please help? I've read that it was possible to set the Capacitive buttons on the bottom of the phone to light up for notifications. If this is true can someone please point me in the right direction?
And just to clarify, I've searched and searched but I can't seem to find out how to do it.
Thanks in advance!

BLN: back light notifications
You need a custom kernel with the bln and module built in and on a tw rom you will need to get the bln app from the market.
Some aosp roms have that feature included in the system settings themselves, and if not I'm pretty sure all aosp kernels have that module in it for at least the app to work.
I use this kernel (r3) + BLN app from the Play market.

Judging by in your signature it shows you as having a Note 2 I would probably go ask in those forums about BLN as I am sure flashing one of our kernels that supports it will cause you to have a nice big paper weight

[Q]Landscape keyboard on Badseed Tranquil ROM

Just flashed the Badseed Tranquil ROM last night and noticed today that when I'm in landscape there is an empty space on the right of the keyboard. I can see through to the app behind the keyboard. Is that supposed to be like that or is there a way to fix it? Also I'm getting some reasonable lag while I'm using the keyboard that I didn't get before. Any help would be great.

I flashed using twrp and came from Hatka Supreme if that helps at all. I'm also having problems in the extended settings with the kernel options. Won't let me set tweaks on boot. Dunno if that's a Rom issue or kernel issue though. I'm running cubed but might switch back to beast. Thought cubed would help cuz since I installed roms my car charger won't charge the phone. Gives me the notification error message.

When I got hone from work I wiped everything and flashed from the beginning. Then the keyboard worked, then I put all my apps back on, went to send a txt and therer it was again. So I went into every app that I could use the keyboard on and discovered the empty space is only there in certain apps. My stock messaging and stock browser are fine but gosms and xda and chrome have the empty space by the keyboard. Really disappointing cuz I absolutely love the Rom otherwise. Blue is my favorite color and especially that color blue lol. My case and even my car is that shade blue hahaha. See if that problem happens with anyone else and if it ends up getting fixed in an update I will surely be switching back!

This is a Kernel issue , I suggest BeastMode 5.9 , and you set the options you want in aroma . If you want to change things on the fly feel free to try another kernel , CP's kernel for example .

That is so confusing. Maybe I was wrong and chrome wasn't one. I was trying to remember from last night lol. I know gosms definitely was one though cuz I send so many txts. Give it a try and if it doesn't do it for you then maybe it's an app that I installed that's making it do that. I also have lmt pie installed and that works from that side of the screen so it could possibly be that.

Also do you know if the problem I'm having with my car charger saying it's unsupported on my phone is a kernel issue or Rom issue?
