I relied heavily on the flashing LED on my G1 to notify me of messages. The Nexus trackball pulses, but so infrequently you have to stare at the thing for 15 seconds to see if its lighting up or not. Which pretty much defeats the entire purpose. Any way to speed up the rate it flashes, or any app that does this?

hi
is it possible to let the notification led stay lit when there are missed calls or messages? perhaps the blinking time can be set anywhere in the registry. i would like it to remain lit like when the battery is fully charged because the time i have to look at it feels like eternity every time i want to check if i have some missed calls. this way a quick glance would suffice.
thank you
Has anyone found if this is possible.
I would like to blink the led more (i.e. every second instead of every 4 seconds now) when I got an e-mail.
When I missed a call the time is 1 second between the blinking.
I am also interested in this too, keep it lit like when it is being charged.
Why bother? The light's about the size of a mosquito's nuts, quicker to just turn the screen on isn't it?
Is there a way to change the blink rate of the notification LED?

I was never able to actually get the blink "rate" to change. The colors all worked but still had the slow blink rate.

Same thing, led color changes but still blinks slow. Like the new colors though.

Yeah, this thing doesn't have the same control over the flashing LED that a BlackBerry has. Blink rate seems slow and random. Lightflow is good, but it is no BeBuzz. I find frequently that the LED is flashing for seemingly no reason. There are no alerts, but yet the LED is flashing. I really hate the LED on the ATRIX.
Never ever had it flash for no reason. There is always a reason so u should check your settings.
But u are right for sure, Light Flow is no BeBuzz!!!!!

On Light Flow this happened to me when I saw the notification (at least for the Google Talk app) in the notification bar but didn't actually open it up in the Talk app. Light Flow probably still thinks I haven't seen it, because I don't think it can tell if I've seen and cleared the notification in the status bar.
just set your notifications to end blinking at screen-on rather than app.
Never had the problem of it blinking for no reason, i now have the full version and it blinks more often than before and i have enough control of the LED for how i use it tbh
Agreed with above and I think it's draining my batt. Didn't know we had this colors available though!
When I was porting my tilt there was a lib that controlled the blink. I don't remember what level the lib is. It's certainly possible that it is kernal level and we can't touch it yet

I thought it was flashing for no reason once. Turned out this program flashes the led when a mail arrives in the non priority inbox as well (native gmail only flashes for priority inbox for me). It triggers the led then, but naturally no notification. Turned gmail notifications off as a result, still have to see whether it will blink for priority inbox (show week).

On previous phones, when I got a notification, say a text message, the screen would light up and I could tell I had to check my phone. On my N4, when I get a text the phone only vibrates and the screen doesn't light up. Is there a way to have it light up? I tried looking through all the settings but couldn't find anything, and I find it rather odd LG would set their phone up like this.
Also- is there a way so that the pulse notification light goes off more frequently? right now I have to wait about 10 seconds for the next pulse light to go off, making the notification LED rather useless if i miss it the first time.
Thanks.

There's custom ROMs such as CarbonROM, Xylon, ParanoidAndroid, or XenonHD and so many others) that let you configure the colour, blink rate, and application-specificity of your LED indicator. You can also look at Liteflow to customize your LED notification if you'd rather not go to custom ROMs

This. But if you are rooted and having a custom ROM, they integrate it by default. But if it's really waking up the device you want, you might want to try an app called SMS WakeUp. (You can get it from the Play Store)
OK so I have a VZW G2 and my friend has an ATT G2. When he gets a text message his screen will turn on and mine won't. And his notification light blinks about every 2 to 3 seconds where as mine is something like everything 30 seconds. These both suck and I want it to be like the ATT version but I can't figure out how.
Any help would be great.
One more thing, I've also got home screen redraws and he said he has never had one. WTF?
Interesting. I hate how the screen doesn't turn on when I get a text on my VZ g2. Would love to hear the answer or if the is a fix.

At least it not just me i guess.
Been using this since I got my phone. The time isn't very accurate in my experience, I have it set for 10 seconds but it's closer to 5 or 6. Anyway, it works well enough so I haven't bothered looking for another similar app.

Just tried it. It does wake the screen but then it gets rid of my notification light and missed message icon in the status bar all together. So if I missed to screen turning on I wouldn't know I had a new message at all.

I use Light Flow for LED control. Stock LED controller has never been very useful for me. You can easily set different colors and durations and pretty much anything else you'd ever want.

Plus one on Light Flow. So many customizations and can even control your power button led and flashlight. Blows all others away imho.:good:
I can't get Light Flow to do anything other than wake the screen.
I'm liking the edge lighting notifications, specially the eclipse effect. But it only displays once. I would like it to display for example once every 30 seconds while the notification stays activated. Is there any way to achieve that?
I have aodnotify, but I think I prefer this native edge lighting.
Anyone has been able to do this?
good question and i would also like to know the answer to this
The notification situation is probably the worst part of the S20.
This would be a great feature. to repeat edge lighting every X seconds.
I set notification reminders in the settings to check if it would display edge lighting again for missed notifications but it doesn't.
