[Q] LED notification bug? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This related to my S4 active, but I'm hoping the S4 is similar in this respect. I get a calendar reminders all day, and I don't dismiss them immediately as I often attend to some of them a bit later.
So for me the LED notification is useful to alert my that a new calendar reminder has gone off, but after I unlock the screen, swipe down the notification bar and select calendar notifications to see the list of notifications, and then lock the screen, I expect the blinking LED to stop, until a new reminder comes along.
Unless I'm losing my memory this has been the case with the S3 and other similar phones I've owned, where if you swipe done and look at the notification then lock the screen, the blinking stops. I tried it with email, and that works, if I just swipe down to see that there's an email notification and without dismissing lock the screen, the blinking stops, so not sure why it doesn't work with the calendar. Any ideas?
I also noticed the blinking is fast for the calendar and slow for gmail, is that on purpose?
Thanks.

Some LED questions

Hiya All,
I have two questions regarding the Jam led:
1. In normal operation the LED flashes under green color around each 7 seconds. Is there anyway to shorten the interval to around 4 seconds ?
2. When an appointment is secheduled, the notification window pop ups and display the appointment detials. After I'm dismissing the notification window, the LED still flashes with yellow color and only SR can resume the LED to its green light. Is there any way after dismissing the appointment to resume the LED to green light again ?
Thanks in advanced,

hehe i can't even see the difference between these two colors.
flashing blue would be nice
1. There's no way of changing the flashing interval.
2. Check your settings under Sounds & Notifications - Reminders - Flash light for...
Thanks for the interval info...
However, when I'm going into notification settings and removing the flash list for missed calls or new sms messages, after approving the new settings, it's always coming back to default.
Any ideas how to fix this ?
Thanks in advance,

default to what?
Defualt to flash light and notification on the Start line...
Anyway to remove all notifications such as missed calls, incoming sms and voice mail from the Start line ?

Yeh mine seems to sometimes get 'stuck' on flashing the orange light, even if you've dismissed the alert. It does it for some SMS's when on vibrate mode, and some reminders on normal mode.
You can fix SMS's by going into Sounds & Notifications, clicking the 2nd tab then ok. I've found no way to fix it for reminders other than SR.
Annoying!
Noone found why the led can't be flashing any faster?

(Q) LED notification for S Planner

I tried everything but cant seem to fine any info.

Normally this isn't an issue but I wasn't near my phone when my reminder went off and didn't notice for 45min I missed my reminder.
Is there a way to get the LED to blink for S Planner for missed notifications?
Thanks
Anyone? LED works fine for all other notifications that are not dismissed. Only s planner notifications that are not dismissed don't have any blinking LED

Cannot remove notifications

Hi all,
A recent trouble on my phone ...
When I receive a notification (for ex, sms), I see my notification on status bar. When I clic on It, I can see my notification. But it still stay on the notification. If a Want to remove it, I had to swipe the notification to remove it.
I want my notification to leave when I select it on notification bar.
I use LightFlow. But it's the same when I remove Light Flow...
Any Idea ?
This is when new sms arrive: swipe on edge then swipe on lock screen then swipe on notification bar and you can still see the badge on sms app. Go to sms app then badge disappears. Well done Samsung- it is very nice done let say 'UI is polished'. One notification 20 clicks to get rid of it. And you asking why apple selling more phones. Can you imagine professional person with 100+ emails every day? Instead of 100 clicks every day he got fuc.... lost after 2 hours of clicking.

Any way to get reminders for missed calendar events?

Love the samsung calendar for the fact I can dismiss reminders without having to unlock and enter a pin
My main issue is sometimes I leave my phone on my kitchen table and a reminder will go off but I am not present to hear it/see it
The issue is after a few min the LED will no longer blink and no notification is seen showing the calendar entry
Basically is there any way to either keep the notification going or have a repeat reminder for calendar entries that where not dismissed
Anyone? Suggestions?

Google calendar notifications repeat constantly on lock screen.

Hi
I changed to the google calendar from the stock calendar as they seemed to have stripped it down since my s5.
When I set an event reminder it will pop up on my lock screen, will fade then reoccur continuously until I dismiss it by sliding the X to dismiss it.
Others seem to be having the same issue. I have tried turning off notifications, etc.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.
