I don't like that for two reasons. Firstly, there are big intervals between the flashes, so you can't just quickly take your phone out of the case to check you haven't missed something, then put it back. You have to look at it for about 10 seconds.
Secondly, the trackpad is at the bottom. My phone is in a vertical pouch, and by using Led Me Know I can pull just the top of the phone up and instantly see if the LED is flashing or not (ok yes, I know I could put the phone in upside down lol).

Missed Call LED flash while charging

When I'm charging my phone and I miss a call/text, the indicator doesn't flash, it stays steady orange. I had that feature on my Cliq and miss it on my shift. Is there anyway to change it or am I missing something? Using preludedrew's rom, if that helps...
Maybe that's an HTC thing its been like that on the g1 EVO and shift and Hd2 them is the only HTC phones I have had and they all done that its like htc wants a big annoying Orange light there lol I know when my phones is charging I'm the one who plugged it in

Because you can't take your eyes off your phone, so a LED is useless
noled looks very nice
great to see NoLED working on the SII
I wonder how the new SAMOLED+ screen adjusts for battery savings with my app. I've seen through the videos that there are some screen brightness/color customizations that dynamically adjust to the image displayed on the screen.
I can't wait til I get my hands on this device.

It does look nice, until you notice that it drains your battery and keeps the phone warm to the touch since the screen is on the whole time when a notification is on the screen.
but since it has an samoled screen, i dont think that the whole screen is on, or not?
i thought a main advantage of BLACK on samoled screens is that the black pixels are OFF and only others need to be maintained with power?
Just use it and you'll see.

Yea it is said it works like this. But I can't imagine the black pixels consuming 0% power. Can't wait for my Sgs2 in two weeks!

if you also know what you're doing and configure the app right. you could make it consume absolutely no more power than without.

Isn't there a LED indicator on the front of the GSII? Look at 0:15 of the below video where it blinks while phone is booting up:

the black pixels don't use power, but the display controller still has to be powered on and that uses battery too

No LED notification for T-mobile!!!

I wonder why T-mobile and ATT versions of Galaxy s2 phones don't have LED notification light! It looks like Sprint cares more about its customers.

That's hardly a solution and LED Notification lights can do more than just light a button up.
Not to mention it's very unattractive.

or use noled! its simple and i use it on my vibrant plus it has themes
When I tried my first Android phone (at Sprint) I returned it partially because it didn't have a notification light.
Years later, when I switch to T-Mobile, I knew about NoLED so I went with the Vibrant.... I don't use NoLED but "Missed Reminder" and I don't miss the LED.
I didn't know about the button light mod... I may give that a shot.

Now you gonna have to switch back to Sprint since its SGSII variance has LED Notification Light
BLN I think is better. Works prefect for me

Notification LED on Moto X Force?

I know this is not the correct forum, but there's no one for X Force...
Does this phone has an rgb notification LED and could it be controlled with root?
Thanks!

It can be controlled with root, but cannot be used for notifications. If we get a custom kernel, then maybe... for now its just used to indicate when the battery is charging but not charged enough to turn the phone on.

Turn off your phone and plug in the charger. You will see the green light to the left of the ear piece

you need to have the battery at 0%.
If you are rooted there are some commands you can run to light it up. google moto x notification led and you should find it

Its not a notification light. It's charging indicator light. Your battery level must be near 0% if you wanna see it. Or you can use an app from post above yours if you wanna enable it as charging Iight whenever you charge your phone.

Try do discharge your battery to 0%, let it shutdown by itself and then plug the charger. See if that works.

Hi, there is no way to have the LED blink when we have a message or other notification ? :/
Your app is cool, but only for charging, is not very useful ^^

It uses front flash light for notifications. Not very useful for me, but you may like it.

FlashAlert 2 does use front flash. You can choose which flash to use in settings. But its only for incoming calls and sms. And you're right ,it's way too strong.

Unfortunately this "hidden" LED light is in fact only used by the stock OS to show you that the battery needs to be charged when the phone doesn't have enough power to light the screen.
If you ask me a pretty dumb way of using this beautiful LED light... I hope someone writes a custom rom for the dt2 and moto x force that allowed this once we are able to achieve root and bl unlock.. Good luck guys
Hi, any news on this?
