SMS / Missed call LED flash alerts

[Guest AaronW]

Hi,

Is it possible to have the LED(s) flash faster if you have a text or missed call?

Thanks.

[Guest andrew502]

There's a program in the downloads section, can't find a link though as the form won't search for LED. I think it only flashes for SMS messages.

I have installed this feature on my phone and it had no affect so if anybody knows what I need to do please post.

[Guest abhayseth]

there you go - try this...!

Did you mean to include a file or a link of this new version? Or was the one posted previously the new version.

Yes, the posted one above is the one he is talking about.

And I think it might actually work, but the problem is that the led blinks with 1 second interval when you have a new SMS and so on, BUT it blinks with about 1½ second interval with no new events. So it's imposible to see the difference.

Could you make it flash faster? Like 4 fps or so.

maybe instead of av0pf1w999999f0 you can try different values.. but if the string can't take decimals then i assume 1 second is the minimum time between flash and flash :/

This is great, but once every second is unfortunately useless. :)

Will try it anyway, to se if it even works.

Well, it doesn't matter. If we are able to change it to 5 seconds interval, that would be good also. Just to be able to clearly see the difference from the "regular LED flash" ..

[Guest nastassja]

then you could try using av0pf5w999999f0

i guess you can also chose color, it would be nice to use a special color :)

[Guest Eminos]

I tried a little bit, couldn't get it to work.

If someone knows what the registry entries, all the different characters and numbers, actually mean, please share that info ...

[Guest nastassja]

affected registry keys are as follows (pretty obvious, i know):

(all of them are string values)

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\Keypress

Script = "f0"

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\Ringtone0

Script = "av0f1pr"

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\Clock

Script = "av0pf1w999999f0"

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\SMS

Scripte = "av0pf1w999999f0"

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\E-mail

Script = "av0pf1w999999f0"

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\Reminder

Script = "av0pf1w999999f0"

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\VoiceMail

Script = "av0pf1w999999f0"

I guess we just need to know how to play with that values.. by reading the repeating alarm tweak i think we can conclude the letters are to define the action and the numbers act as timers. Anyone can help with this?

Hmm, I've been playing around a little bit with it, and this is what I have come up with.

I have no idea what the characters "a" and "p" do.

"f1" seems to enable the green led with 1 second blink interval. "f2" does NOT give 2 seconds interval. Doesn't give anything at all.

"f0" disables that one seconds blink and reverts back to normal "2 second blink"

"w" is a pause (wait) with the number value afterwards that gives pause length in seconds (I guess).

"v" is for vibration (with length value afterwards), so I don't know why this dude has put this value in at all.

"r" is repeat (after what I've read on the forums)

Now, the interesting question is if we are able to change the blink interval, and/or the led (color).

I've tried some different "random" values/characters, but with no success.

If any of you want to try it out, a good way is to play araound with the "KeyPress" Registry Key. This way you can try the new value right away, just by pressing any key. A good start value of the Script value is to use "f1w5f0". = Fast blink turned on, for 5 seconds (actually 3 blinks), then turned off (returns to normal blink interval).

interesting findings! i will take a look to see if i can discover something more.

[Guest Eminos]

I just found this thread where they talk about these same letters. Very interesting.
