Notification lights

Hello,
I've noticed that there are a few colours that could light up on the x10. I'm talking about the notification light (round) on top right. So far I've witnessed:
Green
Orange
Red
and Purple <-- some of you may have not seen this. I'm guessing there are much more colours just like the nexus one track ball which will soon be available for adjustment after root... or maybe SE will be using them after the new update.
I see the purple light when I get new posts on the app called "craigsnotifica"
Please let me know if you have witnessed any other colours.
Lol, this is a bit exciting as the possibilities of this phone seems endless once root is achieved.
Cheers,
Trojjan

I've seen blue when using ebuddy.

There is a app on the market that allows u to select any custom color for different notifications.
i think the apps name is blink flash led in your way.
it uses the RGB to generate any custom color.
cheers

Yeah the notilight can show any colour, except grey>black

In addition to the five colors mentioned, there is also cyan. However... Is your orange really orange? Mine is green-yellowish.

My orange and yellow basically look the same.

The colour also changes as the charge level incresese.
so it goes from red when the battery is below 10% to very faint green then when its 100% charged it's a very bright green.

Found this from android forums by smg:
If you download the free app called "blink" from the market then you can set the led to lots of different colours for lots of different things like calls, texting, battery, memory etc.
Of the top of my head the colours you can set it too are:
Blue
Green
Red
Cyan
Purple
Orange
Pink
White
Yellow
This is pretty cool since now I can tell whether or not I missed a call or a text. Plus I get to play with the different cool colours.

Tried Blink app but IMHO it has limited functionality. Is there a way to turn the notification light on (in any color) for calendar reminders?

Our leds have various colours, but some things like light red and pink look exactly, use blink from market to change colours, its a free app, and use led tester (or sumtin) its also free and it shows you various colours you can use for on ur led, but its just a tester

LED Notification Light - multicolor capable?

So the specs noted that the LED notification light was "tri-color" but none of the reviews that I've seen have indicated if it's a true RGB LED capable of producing multiple colors. I'm so used to having different colors for different notifications on my N1, I'd hate to be limited to 3 colors on the Atrix.

Actually... All I've gotten is green.

blackberries also have a multi colored led but always shows red. Fortunately, there are apps (free and paid) that will let you tinker with it.
sure hope there will be one for this phone.

I think it has rgb, and then a white led
Its got a white led when charging, green for notifications, blue for calls, and red when theres a low battery. Use the app 'led tester' off the market to test the leds, its a pretty neat app. I like 'led disco' because it flashes all the colors and goes through them all. With the red, green, and blue led you can produce any color you want.

Uhhh. No. Those facts are not true. Had the atrix for 3 days now and I've only seen it shine green. No red no nothing. And TRUST me I've been tinkering with it.

Yes, it doesn't work.

I have an atrix in my hand and I have seen 3 colors:
1. Green for messages and charging
2. Red for low battery
3. White - can't remember the condition
I have not seen blue. The Bravo does have blue though.

How in the heck did you get it to say low battery? O.O! You really like to abuse your gadgets don't you?!

I've been able to change my colors. Not sure to what extent you can though. I had pinkish for SMS but changed it to blue.

I always run my stuff down until it dies once every couple of months - i did the Atrix early.
So far battery life is great - i played with it all weekend and it is one solid phone.

Yep. I tried running it out of battery but I got bored and decided to let it get some charge by the time it told me it needed it.

What tool did you use? Some report that some don't work.

Exactly. Even when I plug in my phone I don't see any light go on. :S

I'm using GoSMS which has an option to change the led color of it's capable.

I was able to see blue when connecting my bluetooth headset to it. It only flashes when it makes the initial connection.

So far I've seen red, blue, green, and a purpleish color. I came from my BB with the BeBuzz app, and it was easy to tell which one of my contacts were calling/texting me from the colors I had assigned.

I was able to use LED lights on Touchdown app..Blue, Red & of course Green.

Okay, let's try asking the question a different way to get an answer we all are looking for.... what FREE app works to change the color of the LEDs and isn't an add-on or skin to SMS or Email? I'm looking for something just like Blink that actually works for this phone!
EDIT - Well what do you know, it DOES work as long as you read the damn instructions! UNPLUG the phone.... click Menu > LED Manager > choose a color > check to test color > TURN OFF SCREEN ON PHONE...... all six colors - RED, GREEN, BLUE, YELLOW, PURPLE, and TURQUOISE all work when you follow those steps! Pretty awesome
<== can be an idiot sometimes....

Mine was red when the battery level dropped to 10%.

[Q] Focus capacitive buttons are green?

Hey guys,
I recently purchased a focus and am loving windows phone.
One strange thing though, my buttons on the bottom of the phone are a light green color.
They are also really dim
Is this normal?

Not normal at all , they should be bright white dude.

i just bought one and i notice the same thing... strange.. see attach

Not very clear pics but one can see some tint of green in the last.
My win button lights up white, not very bright but it's surely clean white.

Here take a look at this,
focus on the left and Galaxy s on the right

Looks like whatever produces the white lights got a problem (since the green is uniform)

My new 1.3 is slightly green. Its definatelt white, but the lightest hint of green is present.
Green is my favorite color

What does (white, blue, red) LED light mean?

As stated above, after looking at similar threads, I still have no idea what the "stock" n4 lights represents. So far i have encountered all three but usually when I see the red or blue light I would restart the device and it would go away.
If anyone has any knowledge please let me know!
Much thanks!

White is default. Facebook is blue. No idea what red means on stock.

As joshnichols said, it could be dependend in which apps you use. Whatsapp makes is glow green. In dev treads, they are also talking about the red light oft death. If it appears, your device might be (!) briked due to Software issues. Even if, many reports that they just put it on the charger and the red lod disappeared.

Thanks a bunch you guys

Just skip it and use light flow to make the led whatever you want at whatever flash rate you want :thumbup:

White is email or text message, blue is facebook, red is low battery, green is phone is connected to charger.

If you decide to use paranoid android you can set led colors and individual apps and how fast it blinks.

Notification LED dull and not RGB?

Hey guys...one of the most used and important features in any Android phone for me is the RGB notification LED.
The S4 and Nexus 5 had great ones...I'm a little worried about the very dull one on the S5.
I cannot get Light Flow to work at all...and while I know the S5 is really new...just a little troublesome...

It does have an RGB flash, tested colors with LED Tester app, but haven't set up Lightflow, which is often rather complicated. You may restart your phone after setting it up and see if it works properly.
I guess it's duller because the plastic over it is thicker due to the IP certification (?), now why isn't there a cutout for it like for the sensors is beyond me.

I find it bright enough, far better than whats on HTC phones. I can also see it from a 45 degree angle, the one on the s4 was better still but not complaining as it still does its job

Led tester works perfectly for me in all colours. Be warned if you get an incoming notification whilst testing the colours, the light will revert to the notification colour until you click on the notification and reset the led.
Hope this makes sense lol

All off the LightFlow app developer's websites/servers are down. Could you please give me the run-down on what you did to fix it? (I'm having the exact same problem).

I agree the LED is VERY dull, my sister just got the LG g2 and the led on it is beautiful very bright and vivid colours.
