[Open Beta] Leave It On v4 - Backlight utility, with animated msg pop-ups

[Shao128]

With OS 7 around the corner I thought it would be a good time to start updating all my apps, so I'm starting with Leave It On (Wallpaper Changer is next).

If you aren't already familiar with Leave It On have a quick look here for the description: Leave It On on CrackBerry App Superstore

You do not have to have purchased Leave It On in the past to participate in the beta, it is open to all.

Major changes from v3:

• Pop-ups can now be set to 3 mode: Interactive, Non-interactive, Interactive on Home Screen. Interactive mode means when a pop-up is displayed the pop-up takes over the input so you can click (or scroll in the case of email and sms previews), clicking it launches the app the pop-up is for. Non-interactive mode the pop-ups will no disrupt anything you are doing, but you cannot click or scroll the pop-up. Interactive on Home Screen, is what it implies, the pop-ups will be interactive on the home screen only and non-interactive in all other apps
• Complete re-write of core code. Translates to better performance.
• Workaround for bug in OS 6.0.0.4xx+ that would not display e-mail pop-ups correctly
• Improved scrolling of preview messages (emails & sms)
• Updated UI
• Lots of smaller tweaks/fixed/improvements

What I need from you:

• Does anything not work as expected?
• Apps that you would like to see pop-ups added for (see below for how to do this)

How to submit details for pop-ups for new apps:

• Turn on development mode in Leave It On (this setting is not saved after a battery pull)
• When you get a notification that Leave It On does not recognize a pop-up will appear with a long number.
• Reply to this thread with that number along with what application it was, and what in particular triggered it.

For example: UberSocial, 8667076032236828000, triggered by new @ mention.

• Also including the module name of the app would be a bonus (you can find it in applications in the options screen of your device)

Hey Shao! Would you suggest I delete LIO v3 before I download this beta?

Cheers!

Just do a Shutdown from the menu in LIO, then delete and reboot, then install 4.

Yeah Finally pop ups for emails are working again. So far I have it set for interactive and so far the notifications I've received all are working. Will do more testings with the various options and report back.

Shao you are a champion of Canadians and a deity of developers, not to mention an example of excellence. This and .600 for the 9650 makes today quite possibly the bast day ever.
I'll report back later with any feedback I can think to make.

[SCrid2000]

Alright, so two feature requests - I thought the previous version had these?
1. Option to not have popups stop when the battery drops below 10%
2. Option to not have the screen turn on if it's off when a popup arrives (I might just be missing this one).
Noticed that old restores don't load.
Also, overall the popups seem much quicker and more responsive.

Just e-mailed your support. This was working right up until I registered it. I'm guessing I shouldn't do that (old habit). I'll delete it and reinstall.

It would be nice to have more options for which apps not to use LIO with. I have it stopped for the phone and GPS but would also like it for when I'm playing music. Thanks!

Hi Shao,

I liked the new "[Open Beta] Leave It On v4" UI very much.

I have a question, Can you please tell me if i can change the default icons for the SMS and also for my enterprise emails?

Thank you for your services

Regards,
Dinesh

I notice a bug. Whenever I receive a sms and when I click on the pop up to open the message, it does open correctly in the message app but it also launches LIO app in the background. So each time after I read a text message I find myself in LIO app and have to close it.

This is yet another nicely designed app from an excellent developer!

When I try to do a "Backup to SDCard" -> "Save settings to SDCard?" -> "Yes"... I get the following message... "Error saving to SDCard".

[jmripollg]

I can't get LIO to work After downloading, I get a popup saying LIO is requesting changes to its application control permissions, as is customary with every download. After clicking OK and saving the suggested settings, I get an uncaught exception error saying java.lang./IllegalArgumentException. When I try to log into the app again, the only permissions requested are Interactions Deny and Security Timer Reset Deny. I can't change either one of those settings. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I have Pop-Text color set to Gold (default is White). After every device reset it goes back to White. All other settings seem to be holding.

I am now also having this issue.
