Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone can help me , my LED notifications stopped working all of the sudden , I checked settings and I have them all checked but when i receive emails, text , etc they don't light up.
anyone know what app(s) control them? i might have disabled them by mistake , thanks!
Couple things to check. They only work with the screen off, and dim if in dark places. Did you install any third party apps to control the LED? Is Power save mode on? Does it still light up while charging.
I've never had issues with the LED on the S4 or Note II.

Go into the phone dialer and *#0*#
This will bring you into the testing menu.
Press the 'LED' button.
Press on the screen to switch from Red - Green - Blue while checking the LED on the top left corner.
This ensures that there is no hardware issues with your LED.
Once this is verified. You can go into app settings, for example whatsapp, that actually lets you pick different led colors for notifications.

Hi guys!
Sometimes on my Jam the yellow led is always on...
I'm sure to not have message to read or active appointments...
The only workaround is to do a softreset! :-(
FOr example:
yesterday the led was green... an appointment reminder appens with sound notification (dinner from 20 to 23).
The PDA was turned off but the notification ring sound and the led became yellow. The display was still off.
I turn the pda on and I see the bell symbol on the bottom right corner.... I tap on it and I see the reminder for my appointment.
After that the led don't becomes green!
I tryed to show the appointment in the calender ecc... but the led was stilll yellow.
I'm not expert and I thinked that the led will be green after the 23pm when my appointment will be ended...
This morning the led was still f..... yellow!!!
I made soft reset and now it's ok but I don't understand why!
How does the reminder notifications works?
Are you using phonealarm or alarmtoday?
I've noticed sometimes the only way to cancel the yellow led is to load the sms/email app (ie check your messages), regardless of what caused the yellow led, and whether or not you have a new message.
Anyone concur?

I installed PohoneAlarm but i removed it and now I'm usign PPCProfilePro...
I've noticed the led anomalies and the only cure I've come up with is to soft reset.
whenever the yellow gets stuck i go to settings->sounds & notifications
then click on notification tabs then sounds tab then notification tab again..
that should bring back the green led

I remember that! :lol: 8)
The bug must be from windows mobile. If you, when getting a notification popup, tap a button and hold it until the LED did blink once again and then release the button, the bug shouldn't appear. The solution I use is to restrict the blinking to a certein time period, I think you can set it to 90 minutes or something. I use PocketZenPhone to set this. Therefore, whenever this bug appears, it's gone after 90 minutes.
I'm getting an xperia, I used to have a tytn II and now have a touch pro.
When I moved from the TYTN II to the touch pro I really missed having hardware keys and the LED blinking whenever the phone was on.
I could only tell if the phone was on by pressing the power button on the touch pro, which meant on a night when I wanted to switch off the phone I end up pressing the button, only to see the phone was already off then have to wait for the phone to start only shut it down.
Can you make the light flash every so often when it's on on an X1? If not is there a way to tell if it's on or off (without turning it on if it's off)?

you could briefly press the power key to see if the screen immediately lights up, if not then it is off
or you could allow waking up the phone with any hardware key and click one of the other keys to see if it's on
I'm sure, with all of the apps and mods on here, there is a way to make your lights blink every so often as well
however, I've noticed the lights aren't very bright, even at night time
You can slide it open to check if it is on
OMG I've been going nuts over this, I didn't think about sliding the keyboard out!
The any key wake is an even better option, thanks.
I'd still like to get the LEDS lit though, as I used to remeber to switch off the TYTN II when it lit up after I turned off the (ceiling) lights.
Thanks for the help

A workaround:
Set SMS or Mail notification lights to "unlimited"
Send yourself a SMS or Mail and keep that one "unread", then you have your Xperia blinking as long as its turned on.
Hello at all,
How does the LED notofication work on your device?
I use K9-Mail. there I have the option to set LED notification on. But nothing happens.
It should work for SMS (handcent) and K-9 (E-Mail)...
Is there a way to fix this?
hm, seems that it blinks 2, 3 times and thats it... what is the benefit of the light which blinks 0,8 seconds?!
next funny thing:
device is in standby, mail delivers, it rings, vibrates and the LED blinks 2 times. Then I reactivate the phone and the LED blinks one more time...
Is it such a big problem to get such basic function works. We have now Android Version 2.2 on the phone. so they had enogh time to develop this... or is this a problem ob Motorola...?
Mhh I never saw it being a problem. Whenever theres a mail, message, missed call it blinks green to a set timing. On WhatsApp, you have the possibility to set it to any colour you want. That only works if you have your phone rooted.. so that way, my phone now blinks purple for a WhatsApp message.
By the way... sometimes when u have a message and you turn the display off/lock it without reading it, then theres one longer led blink but then goes back to the normal pattern, I guess just to remind you before you put the phone away that there is actually an event that u missed. Theres a program called "Blink" on the AppsMarket where you can customize a colour for every event... if thats something you are looking for ?
Is No Lock, both versions in the market, the only option for when your phone goes into sleep that will allow you to get the screen back on with the up/down volume or power?
Right now, neither work well with my Inspire. The one No Lock won't auto start upon boot, have to set it each time after a reboot. Then, the volume buttons when you hit them it beeps like you are adjusting the volume.
The other No Lock app doesn't even work.
The thing I really miss about my Nexus One, Trackball wake/unlock and LED alerts.
The No Led app doesn't support any mail app but Gmail...sigh. So no other option apparently I have searched and found for regular Sense mail application LED on the screen alerts with different colors etc..
EDIT: Figured out how to do a custom status bar message so it sees a new email from any app, that is good. But, No Led doesn't work if you are using a No Lock screen app. Although, when No Led is enable, the touch buttons at the bottom are active and you don't need to use another button to wake the phone.
So, good/bad. See how it works.
Thanks
