Hello to all!
I am new to this scene, did a search but could not find solid info on the issue I'm having/researching. I have an O2 Xda Orbit2 with WM6.1 (and using it in the US no problem), have gone through and set all preferences, etc to my liking, etc. I added a few AOL email accounts to the Messaging feature so it can grab emails and prior had set within the Notifications and Sounds settings that the phone NOT give me any notification (all boxes unchecked) of when new email comes in from when the phone runs its scheduled send/receive. However, the phone displays that envelope icon on the top status bar when it retrieves new email...even though that particular setting is NOT checked.
I have tried everything...playing with the notifications, setting it off then on, soft reboot and even a hard reboot (YUCK)...nothing cured it. I still get the envelope icon up top when it pulls new email, I don't want it to do that. Glitch, bug or problem with my phone? Anyone else have this or know what or why it is inherently defaulting to give an onscreen notification of new email when I set it not to??
GREATLY APPRECIATE ANY INFO!!
Hi guys, I have a quick question, something I'm trying to figure out.
I downloaded the cab on the tweaks thread for the LED notification.
Before that i'd get the LED flashing green when I get a text message.
after installing the cab, no real difference? after missed call, email etc - there is no led flashing...am i missing something here. The LED flashes green when i get a text (but it did that anyway).

did you change it in Start-Settings-Sound And Totifications?
Hello - I've been looking in that menu set, but there's nothing there regarding LED notification :S just notification sounds...
In that control panel, you have to tick the option "Flash light" for each event you want the LED notification for.
It's really weird, because I can not see those options there at all.
Defo have installed that CAB as it is showing in the programs management as "Microsoft LED notification enabler".

p.s. pinch to zoom makes it fairly easy to change settings.

Hi,
I got the Leo and I want to have the led notification without time limit. Now the work only for 10min.
I saw that there is setting in Sound et Notifiaction (your image), but in my phone this option (Flash light for ...) is disable.
How can I activate this option to set the notification time? Thank you
Hi,
try the attached CAB! I cabbed this yesterday to enable the led notification (unlimited blinking) for SMS, email, dismissed calls and schedule notifications. After installing the CAB you can change all setting via the notifications tab. It just enables all settings and sets some reasonable values.
Bye,
Sebastian

Same here. Is it for a Hotmail account ? I wonder if it's the reason because it is not set by default.

Not only, also for gmail and my work email ...
Uuuups, I am sorry. I have forgotten to remove the German strings from the CAB. I have attached a new CAB to this post. This enables the LEDs notification. I haven't tried this for email on the HD2, but on my Touch Diamond 2 the LED notifications for emails didn't work if I triggered a manual send/receive of emails.
Just bumping this up. The LED notification for new email *doesn't work*, and this seems like a pretty serious flaw on such a slick, expensive gizmo.
I have noticed that my LED flashes on SMS; GMail but not my email account - it has done it once but normally not.
Notifications are set to flash LED.
Anyone else with this or a solution?
Thanks.
Anyone else experiencing this? I have work Exchange account set-up through the stock E-Mail app. I have the notification box not checked at all in both my account settings as well as the priority sender options.
Yet every time I get an e-mail, I get a notification, the LED light, and a beep.
Any ideas?
Hi,
I've had my Galaxy S5 for just over a week and I noticed that the notifications (email, hangouts) do not update if I read the messages from another device. If, for example, I have a new email and read that email on my computer (or tablet), the notification on the phone will still be there until I read that email on the phone. If i just swipe the notification to make it dissapear, when a new email comes in, it will tell me I have two unread messages eventhough the previous messages have been read (on another device).
Before the S5, I had a Nexus 4. Whenever I read a message on my computer, the notification on the phone would dissapear and messages would be marked as read almost immediately.
I find it really annoying to have the notifications and specially the LED light blinking for messages I already read.
Can anyone please tell me how to have S5 work the same way? All my settings are set to "push".
Thanks!
Check if you have enabled auto sync.
Can you tell me where auto sync is? I only found "activesync" under the exchange settings and it's enabled. I didn't find anything like that for my google account settings.
Thanks
bump
So nobody else has this problem?
