      @projectmoon As I understand it apps work like that currently in UT? You can use UT Tweak Tool to have apps ignore this. Experiments you mention may vary from device to device based on the silicon which is fine if your OS is only targeted to one processor for example.

      Ah thank you. This seems to have been set to tethering. I wasn't aware this would also stop file transfers when I've been looking to diagnose why. Resolved

      @slowcyclist There is a bug report which I found later. This is supposed to be fixed now, however, it is not for me. Just sits with Server Stopped forever. I don't see how I can disable and restart the service if you can't get past "Server Stopped" to get to the menus. Seems a clean install of the app would likely fix it, but how? Is there some way to "purge" click packages; as in, remove all the configuration files when you remove them? I'm thinking it may just be easier to have a list of packages, find out how to backup my contacts, call history and messages then wipe clean? Is there some information on doing that? Maybe an app or something built into UT to do that would be nice.

      For devices with no Notification LED is it possible to use flashlight instead?

      To progress further with the initial flashlight idea, controlling the flash directly appears to work fine in the following way. #!/usr/bin/env bash flashOff() { printf '%s' "0" > /sys/class/leds/led:torch_0/brightness printf '%s' "0" > /sys/class/leds/led:switch_0/brightness } flashOn() { # 2 appears to be the minimum brightness value possible printf '%s' "2" > /sys/class/leds/led:torch_0/brightness printf '%s' "1" > /sys/class/leds/led:switch_0/brightness } So with a loop I can have a nice flashing pattern at the minimum brightness. Just need to find what to hook into so I can have it only running only while there is a green notifications icon. As for using the screen, I think the green envelope icon, possibly slowly moving along the top edge of the screen (to minimise any burn in); would be a nice option there.
