All my stuff has notification pulse/light/etc on...yet i dont get it anymore?
i love this light being used...but..uhh..it stopped? any help?
i like pickles
Please see the sticky at the top of the forums..
But does it ever blink? It should only blink when you get a notification while the screen is off.
A) it used to be implemented and when it did, it blinked.
B) any notification i get (email, twitter, calender event, taking ****s) when the screen is off is not shown through the notification light.
C) i hate my father
D) i have reset the thing a few times and have set everything with notification light
Well that is quite a pickle... Someone here hopefully can assist you
i hope so because notification light is absolutely key with such a device. you think i can still return it if its faulty? (im going to do a complete factory restore if all else fails and no light is shown still..then im going to see if i can still return it) i bought it from verizon, kept everything...im sure then can do a switch..no?

Hi,
I have 2 issues with the TP2...
a) Keyboard Light - can it be set to a different value? Seems it is set to around 10 sec - tried Advanced Config..but that doesnt seem to work..also cudn't find anything in the Registry yet.
b) LED - the LED only seems to work during charging(Red/Green solid) = any program/Registry hack to use the LED for other Options (eg "new Mail" = Red blinking)?
Hope someone has the same issues and found a solution already
Thanks!
Regarding the notification light, you should RTFM. You don't need a hack. By default the notification light will blink green for missed calls, new SMS, and new emails. It'll blink amber for low battery warning.
Yea I would like the keyboard to stay lit longer as well. For the LED notifications make sure you select the "flash light for" in the sounds & notifications settings.
But it will not blink when there is missed call or sms when you are charging the phone though.
I don't have that problem with my previous X1.
LED & Keyboard Light
Hi Guys,
thanks a lot - stupid oversight of mine in reg to the LED
However still looking for the Keyboard Light..I used Advanced Config and set it to 30 sec..but that doesn't seem to work.
Also looked into the Registry but cudn't find anything related there as well.....
Cheers!
What are the reg entries for the LED lights? I would like diff colors as well
yes me too. please post your solution
I doubt the registry will give you different colour apart from the green, amber & red. It's a hardware thing.

I guess its too bad then that the manual doesnt say this functionality is BROKEN.
i had to turn it off as it would continue to blink even after I cleared the notifications.

I've searched and searched for a tweak or mod for that - I would MUCH prefer it blink for alerts / notifications, even when connected. Mine usually sits in the cradle when at home. If the LED blinked for missed calls / messages while in the cradle, I could see that at a glance from across the room, rather than going to it and looking at the screen.
Is there a tweak or mod to force the LED to blink, regardless of connection state? I don't care what color.
Thanks, Folks!

guys google nueLed that might work its an old program that controls the Led in many ways
I've seen references to nueLED, but also read of several issues with it on the newer devices (TP2s in particular.) I'll do some searching later today and see if I can come up with a later version and/or higher confidence level that it won't give me problems.
Thanks for the suggestion! Anybody else?
Well, I managed to do a bit of research about NueLED today. I keep finding too many comments in various threads on various forums that mention problems, particularly on TP2s and even more particularly with WM6.5. Perhaps most are overblown - I honestly don't know. But it's enough to give me pause. Above all else, I need to keep Touchie as stable as he is currently. That said...
Can anybody confirm that NueLED works reliably on the T7373 w/ WM6.5 (official HTC SEA ROM update) with no instability or quirks?
Beyond that, can somebody confirm that NueLED provides an option for the notification LED to blink even when connected to power? That is really my only interest. I'm fine with the current setup & colors, but would like the LED to blink for an alert when the device is in the cradle.
Thanks, as always, for the help and suggestions!
Hi, in fact i have rooted my phone, and put the original sbf file that i found on the site but i noticed that my led notification on my milestone 2 is not working anymore. It was before i change the rom and go back to the 2.3... I've tried many apps as led me know, flow light etc... (all i found in fact) but i did not find any solution... Please help me to get this light on
Anybody please help... (UP)
The LED notification will only flash with the screen off. So if try an app to test the LED, don't forget to turn the screen off.
Yeah of course i did it. But it seems to be a constructor problem... the LED must have died xD . Well now i really want to know when i have a sms and i remember to have seen a program that permit the shortcuts in the bottom of the milestone 2 to blink. Anyone knows this app? anyone has a solution so i get a notification of sms received?
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)
Ugh
I had this issue on my LG G2 where, randomly, the green LED status light would start flashing like there is a notification, when there is none. This is related to the Alarm. I posted this over in the G2 forums and I will post it here.
How to fix:
Clear all Notifications
Turn off Screen
(wait for notification light to blink) [confirm]
Turn on Screen
Go to Clock, disable Alarm
Double tap Status bar / Turn off Screen
(wait for notification light to NOT blink) [confirm] [fix]
Turn on screen and enable your Alarm.
The LED light should no longer blink for no reason.
Really kind of disappointed in the G4 software wise. On my G2, this issue and the lagging/FCing keyboard was huge issues that made me want to upgrade to the G4. Sad to say that even the newer software and newer hardware, these bugs are still present.
Thanks for this I'm sure it will help a few people out there.

The only issue I've had regading the blinking lights was if I swiped away a notification from the lock screen and locked it again, it would blink until I pulled down on notification bar. Same thing?
Sent from my G4 using your mom
Nope. It randomly just starts flashing. I do turn off notifications from facebook and XDA via android system....
Happened twice tonight already since 5pm. During the day I am hammered with work emails, gmails, text, and hangouts so I dont notice it much. But a night when its flashing but there are no notifications, i have to disable the alarm amd reenable to fix it.
Same with my old G2.
Maybe the disabled notifications are turning on the LED notification but android is hiding the actual notifications. I will try reenabling them and disabling them via the apps.
Update:
Clearing those apps in the Sounds and Notification settings menu per app page, did turn the light off. So maybe that is the bug.
It started on my G2 when lollipop update came out. It is easier to disable app notifications this way as they come in by holding the noification and disabling it on the andoid side. I'll report back if thats it.
Big problem with led notification
This is the biggest problem in my g4, at least for me.
But i didn't understand what is the connection to alarm? I don't use alarm and still have this stupid bug : (
Well the alarm toggle is just a quick way to turn it off.
I do think the connection as been found with the Android notification hiding. I havent had the problem reoccur since I "allow all notifications" in the android settings... then turn off notifications within the apps directly.
It seems Androids "hide notifications" isn't doing a great job. It keeps the popups hidden, but still turns the lights on.
Turning off notifications within the Apps may also save battery since the App is still basically polling for updates on the network side, just being blocked from displaying them.
I am still testing but I think I nailed it.
Let's be clear.
My problem is not that the LED blinks without any notification.
My problem is that although i read my notification and now have no more any new notification - the led still blinking and i can't stop it.
Thats the same thing
*same issue i had
Scenerio:
Grab my phone and light is flashing. Check notifications. Clear them. Put phone down. See it blinking still. Pick it up. No notifications. No way to turn it off.
Update: Still getting random LED notification lights. Typically happens in the evening. Very weird
Me too
I even think to turn off the led light.
Anyway it's doesn't show the real notification.
Btw, is it problem with LG or with lollipop??
Tnx
I like using timely alarm from the play store. Never had that issue.
It has nothing to do with the alarm, it is just a quick way to fix the issue.
Question: Do you use stock SMS or 3rd party? I use Hello SMS.
Ok, maybe there is connection between the alarm and the led notification, because the bug happen to me usually after i use alarm in the morning (alarm clock extreme free from play store).
When i press i VIBRTATE and back to normal ringing it's usually stop the led blinking
I use stock alarm. But my alarm is only set Mon-Fri yet it happens randomly on sat and sun. It seems to clear itself after a while too...sometimes.
everyone who have this issue -
1. do u use what'sapp?
2. in which color your LED blinking (without notification)? it it your color alert you choose for what'sapp?
I dont use WhatsApp. My notification like is green. Only seems to do this at night but I get slammed with emails (corporate phone) and may not notice it during the day.
The only app I use that is not "common" that has notifications is Hello SMS. Otherwise I use messanger, facebook, xda, gmail, stock email, stock alarm.
Anyone use an alternative sms app with this problem?
It also appears to go away eventually after more texting/emails.
Usually (!) it's happen to me when i use whatsapp:
When i got picture in whatsapp or if i got both 2 messages in whatsapp - the led keeps blinking.
Sometimes it's happening to me when i use alarm clock free from Google play but now delete this.
What weird is that not of the users have this issues.
Tomorrow i gonna go to the store i bought the device and try to talk with them.
Maybe have the opportunity replace the the LED on the brighter?
Any people have this issue??
I know 4-5 people that have this issue.
PLEASE TEST
this isuue happen to me when i got picture in what'sapp (and in more cases).
can someone try to get a picture in what'sapp on his own device?
remember- after i got picture in whatsapp i turn on the device, saw the picture and turn off the device - but the led keeps blinking.
please if anyone can make a test on his own device- it will help me!!
tnx!
Before I even get started, I know CM13 is outdated/discontinued/insecure. I'm aware, I'm stuck with it for a while.
I've been trying to get the notification LED on my phone to work the way I want. I had no problems doing this with Light Flow on my old Samsung GS4. Things were not so peachy until I was reminded Cyanogenmod has built in controls for the notification LED. I have everything set up just the way I want it, it demos just fine when I'm punching in the settings. The problem is it won't work reliably when I set my phone down.
With my GS4, if the screen was off and I had notifications, the LED blinked accordingly. My N6P doesn't do that. I've caught it blinking a few times throughout my day, and had friends send me notifications while it's sitting on my desk, so I know it works sometimes. But the LED won't stay that way forever, eventually it just decides my notifications aren't important enough to me and stops blinking.
I'm having a hard time really pinning down it's logic because it seems to just work when it wants to. I have a theory that the way the 6P is really aggressive about saving battery, whatever service controls the LED is being woken up when a new notification comes in and eventually being put back to sleep, but I simply don't know enough to say. While I'm at it, I don't think I have any way of assigning priority to the different notifications (a text message is more important than an email, for example), so my color code scheme might as well go out the window.
I don't know why google seems to hate the notification LED so much, every time I try to google the issue I just get tons of pages telling me how Google hid it away and you can turn it back on in the settings for AOSP. Obviously none of that is helpful, maybe someone here has an answer?
