- I haven't tried this app as I've been a BeBuzz user for years, and it handles LED notifications just fine for me, however I have read numerous glowing reviews on this app, and I will recommend it to my friends as a full featured free option for custom LED notifications. Sounds like you've created a winner Sultan!
I understand why everyone compares my app to Bebuzz, and lately to BePopup and LeaveItOn, however that's still only half what my app can do, you might want to check the phone calls, battery and screen backlight features as well
Also try to compare app size, memory and cpu utilization, its always a good idea to do so
My app is free for many good reasons, maybe you have already noticed few of them, and i think its time to change people's understanding of the term Freeware for the blackberry platform
Let me know if you want any feature added i my app, and thanks again for your nice words01-30-12 08:39 AMLike 0 - Hey Sultan, this is a very useful app! However, I am still having problems figuring out how to start LED capture. For instance, I click the "start LED capture" which brings up a box with directions. I am not sure what the directions mean. Can you try and clarify the directions here? I am trying to get a custom LED for my crunchSMS.02-09-12 07:54 PMLike 0
- This app is marvelous!
It has a bundle of features all togheter with a little amout of drive usage! When line are busy I just set it to 5 attempts and bang! I get on the line02-09-12 08:06 PMLike 0 - It allows popups for sms, email, twitter,whatsapp, BBM, gtalk, winLive, yahoo, FB, as well as the ability for up to 4 custom apps. Check it out its much more than just a LED or popup app.02-09-12 08:33 PMLike 0
- Looks like your tiny app is a hit Sultan. The word is slowly spreading about one of the smallest and most useful apps I have ever had. I cannot express my gratitude enough. It is also a joy to see someone develop an app that maximizes one of Blackberry's exclusive features, (the led light). You Rock my friend!02-09-12 09:56 PMLike 0

- Why dont you use the "User Activity" option in the LED settings instead of "Open related App" or even "Close Popups" if you enabled them
The reason is some apps dont implemented the right code, since LED apps supports almost all apps, even ones with led problems, we provide different ways to control the LEDs
Enjoy and please use the support email provided in this app for clarifications02-10-12 11:43 AMLike 0 -
click on LED light feature
inside it there is an Enable Timed LED
Change it to Unlimited (you have to scroll all the way to the bottom of the list)02-10-12 12:03 PMLike 0 -
case 2 (Popups and LED enabled), you receive a bbm and an email, you look at your phone and its shows two LEDs (BBM then Email), you open your phone screen, it shows two popups, you read the bbm popup, then email popup, led light still stays on (however you can also stop led light when you close a popup ), this should keep the led light on for you is that what you want ?
case 3 (Popups and LED enabled + stop led light with user activity), same as above, however once you scroll the bbm or email popup the led light will stop even before you close the popup, this helps you read the message without getting disturbed by the led light
the main point here is that the led light will annoy you while reading, and you can still know what you have pending when you go back to your home screen (since you are already holding your phone or using my popups, correct me if im wrong ?Last edited by Sultan Al Sooz; 02-10-12 at 12:07 PM.

Easily #1 utility app for Customization! I cant believe this app is free IMO i would gladly have paid more than the minimum app cost of $0.99. The fact that you are on this forum involved with your customers show you are open to suggestions and opinions which will benefit us and your reputation as a dev keep it up. The only thing id really suggest which might be a reason as to why you dont have more bb users with your app is because of the UI in the 'Advanced OS & LED' for most knowledgeable bb users this might not be such and inhibition but for those new to the bb or less knowledgeable a simplification in UI to make it more user friendly and less "complex". Throw in the "eye candy" factor in the UI it would go a long way for both bb geniuses and newbies. In the end...hats off to you sir you built quite an app!
I most certainly hope that you are going to build a playbook version of this because when OS2 officially launches we will finally have use of that LED and i can see your app for playbook being huge with its existing quality and a UI overhaul!
Just to be clear I WANT THIS APP FOR PLAYBOOK!!!!!!!!!!!02-10-12 12:22 PMLike 0 - I have it set with only led no pop ups. I do see your side of it and it does make sense. However i want that second blink still for that unread msg till i read it. So case one i want the email to still blink when im reading the bbm. Not sure if its possible. It doesnt annoy me. Sometimes i can only read the one and want the other to still blink for latter.
unfortunately i was more concerned with the battery power consumption and users feedback (about LED and reading) that i made no room for keeping the led light ON once you open any of the apps with pending messages. usually i get more requests to stop the led light as soon as possible, but you are requesting the opposite
i do apologies, but my app cannot clear only 1 led out of two or more leds, it will always clear all the leds once you open the respective app for your pending messages (even if you do use my popup feature, it will clear all leds).02-10-12 12:29 PMLike 0 - i see

UI is not the problem, try making 1 app with all the features i provide, yet still under 160kb, and compatible with all bb phone models, and then let me know how will it look like . Did i mention that you will never satisfy everyone's taste in this world
UI will get a small enhancement, but nothing major, i still have more features coming, and trust me no matter how good looking an app is, if it doesnt preform then no one will like it
PLAYBOOK is not java and i dont have one, so you will have to wait until BB10 comes out, by then i will make an app which will work on both devices02-10-12 12:45 PMLike 0 - the truth is, my app internal design does not allow me to do so, i will have to rebuild the LED feature hoping it will work the way you described it. i will have to apologies, i wont be able to add it, i hope you do understand why i cant02-10-12 12:55 PMLike 0
- Dear Sultan !
The tiny application you made is excellent ! i cannot possibly think of using my blackberry without using "Advanced Os and LED". The LED feature and the vibrate on call connect, with the mute option is excellent !!!!!!!!
I loved the "add to contact" feature, but unfortunately this is not working. It was not working on version 9 and I upgraded to version 10 - hoping it got fixed. But still NO.
I believe is the second best feature in Advanced Os and LED and I so badly want to know how use the feature.
The window pops up asking me if I want to save and when I save to "New", nothing happens. The contact is not there in the list.
I am not sure if anyone else is facing the same problem.
I am using Blackberry bold 9780 - 6.0.0.723
Hope I get an answer to this.
Thanks again for making such a great app !!!!!02-17-12 07:08 AMLike 0 -
try this, after you click on the "New" button, goto homescreen and open my app, you should see the contact list or a message box providing you with more instructions. if you do see this, let me know and i will fix it for your phone OS.
if the above solution was not the case, then it could be a permission issue.
either way, let me know what happens02-17-12 07:30 AMLike 0 - Dear Sultan
Thanks for the quick reply.
I just read in the instructions that, the numbers will only be copied and we have to manually paste it ! I was under the impression that the number will be automatically pasted as default WORK number. Well your application is so good, there is no reason I should not expect such wonders !!! Anyway I am sorry I overlooked your instructions and raised an unwanted concern ! Now I know how this works !!!!
Well , this is the best application !!!!!!!!!!
Thanks a lot Sultan !!!!!!!02-17-12 10:38 AMLike 0
