how should this work?!
It flashes (white i think) when I get a sms or gmail.
Does nothing when i have a missed call - seems strange.
Anything else it should do? Thought it was a multicoloured LED, and assumed it may be customisable.
Would prefer a more regular pulse or constant on too, unless it drains battery loads.
Thanks
you can customize the led light to behave how you want. simply use light flow lite app.

Hello everyone,
Got a Bell Atrix 4G, unlocked it and I am using on Rogers network. So far, it is working well.
I am having a problem setting Notification Light. I tried the built in notification light under Settings and a few different notification light apps from market. I used to get a green light for email before but I don't get it anymore after playing with other free apps. I just can't figure this out. I put my phone on vibration mode at work so I would love to have notification lights working.
What I need is different lights for Missed calls, Email, SMS. Has anyone dealt with this issue?
Any help will be much appreciated and thank you!
I use the app light flow for that. Gives me total control over the LED. I have different colors flash for different notifications.
I use Light Flow https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rageconsulting.android.lightflow
and it handles a ton of apps and uses a TON of color combinations.
Worth the $1.
haha, i was going to start this topic today. I use blue for my Trillian notifications, Purple for yahoo mails.
will try the light app suggested above.
Thanks!
Thank you guys! Yes, "Light Flow" makes it work. Please ensure you turn on "Setting > Display > Notification LED".
Light Flow does not work correctly on the ATRIX AT ALL. I had low battery warnings going off when the battery was fully charged, no charge LED ON option, no charging LED, only discharging WTF?
Hello everyone how do I turn of the notification led please?.
Never seen a option
great just what i need for the miss to see this blinking in the night an am in trouble lol. I wander the impact this has on the battery, and what exactly causes it to blink?

The impact on battery life should be absolutely minimal. It blinks when a application sent a notification with a LED-request to the phone. Usually, you can turn this off in the application in question.
For example, Gmail lets the LED blink green when a new E-mail was recieved, Twidryod lets it blink blue. In both programs, you can deactivate the LED-notification in the settings of the program.
None of my apps (incl gmail) have any LED options, and I've never seen the LED flash at all. Not for calls, sms, email or anything.
Could be under sound, pulse notification light?

So I installed Light Manager. I can run test and the LED blinks like I want it to. I have it enabled to come on for texts, emails and a couple others. All seem to work except emails. For some odd reason it never blinks when I get them. Anyone have an LED indicator working, if so, how?
I have not gotten my email light working correctly with Light Manager either. It's either blinking green (not the color I set) or it doesn't blink.
I have the exact same phone as my partner. Both the same OS, software version - everything. The only difference is that I can't get notification lights to work on her phone for things like SMS, WhatsApp etc.
If I choose a light colour in WhatsApp on my phone it works - flashes, works fine. Do the same on hers and she gets no light whatsoever. I have set our phones up to have exactly the same settings, neither of us has any special apps installed (like Light flow) and pretty much all our system settings are exactly the same. Her LED toggle is switched on the same as mine and she is using the same SMS app. Neither of us has any rogue-looking apps installed. We both have the same SMS client and all apps are up-to-date.
Does anyone have a clue what could be going on here? Her light definitely isn't faulty as it works when someone calls - flashes green, lights red when charging and blue when she double-taps the screen to unlock.
I'm all out of ideas now. She is not wanting to do a full restore.
Rooted phone here.
The notification LED doesn't seem to be working for...notifications. No matter what kind, I can never tell I have a notification until I turn the screen on. Anyone have the same problem/solutions?
Not really, perhaps the problem is that it's only Red or Green, its not an RGB LED. I've seen it blinking when a whatsapp message comes in or if I have a missing call but it blinks too fast, so that's the problem and you can't change the timing either.
