[Q] Requesting Help - LED Notifications (GoSMS & Gmail) have stopped working - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Verizon LG G2
Stock/Rooted
Up until yesterday front LED notifications worked flawlessly. I decided to backup my current ROM and ever since the notifications have not worked. I get the vibration (even custom vibrations that I have setup) but no LED.
Confirmed:
Screen is off
Notifications are turned on
LED works for incoming & missed calls
What I've tried:
Restore the backup from last night (no luck)
Uninstall/Reinstall GoSMS and restored GoSMS settings (no luck)
Uninstall/Reinstall GoSMS only - from a fresh Play Store download (no luck)
Completely uninstalled GoSMS and reverted to stock message app (LED notification works)
-Do not have LightFlow installed. Did try it a few months ago, couldn't get it to behave the way I wanted.
-No other LED "controls" installed.
-Gmail LED notifications not working either
As previously stated, no changes to the device other than backing up the ROM. No new downloads, customizations, etc.
Dear God...I'm going mad, any advice?

Within the display > led section... have you enabled downloaded apps switch... if you have that disabled the third party apps leds don't work

Thanks for the reply. Can you be a little descriptive? I don't see anything about 3rd party apps in the Settings > Display Section (or in the Notification Light section).

Settings > Display > notification led> Downloaded apps... that box needs to be checked

I don't have that option on Verizon.

Oh hmm sorry then no idea ... I just know if whenever I disable that checkbox my third party app leds never work

I factory reset the phone, problem fixed.

[QUESTION | REQUEST] Enable Missed Call LED Notification in GE S4 ROMs

I've noticed that my GS4 running a stock GE-based ROM doesn't have LED notifications enabled for missed calls, which I find quite perplexing given that LED notifications are working just fine for text messages and other events (e.g. charging).
Is there any way to enable LED notifications for missed without having to install an app? I just don't want another app unnecessarily running in the background.
Thanks.
Is it not an option in Settings > Display ?

No, I only have Settings > Display > Pulse notification light (checked). There are no options to turn LED notifications for individual events and turning the pulse ntification light turns them for everything but missed calls.
I also heard that Nexus 4 has the same problem. I was wondering if anyone has come up with a mod/script to enable notification light for missed calls as well.
ahh sorry.. I misunderstood exactly what you were asking.

[Q] Notifications Won't Go Away after turning them Off

I've got an S4 with GoldenEye rom (MJ7) and I'm having trouble with notifications still showing up in my notification bar even after I've
-long-pressed the notification
-then selected app info
-gone into that notification's/app's system based settings
-unchecked the box that says show notifications
-after a while the notification will pop back up
-I then repeat the first three steps
-then notice that the box I uncheck is still unchecked yet the notification is still showing up in my bar.
Apps I've had issues with (obviously not talking about Voicemail or other system apps that block you from turning them off):
-Automagic
-Easycontroller
-BBM
-Overlay
-a lot of 3rd party apps that you have to enable in Accessibilities
Any solutions?

[APP] [>=4.0] Recurrent Notifications for any App

This app allows to configure recurrent notifications for each app that is using the standard Android notifications subsystem.
For each app, you can configure the ringtone, vibration, led color, number of repeats and interval of each notification.
Notifications are automatically cancelled if the monitorized app removes the notification.
Also, for each monitorized app you can configure if you like to be notified when a ongoing or clearable notification was created or if the created notification contains a specific text.
This app requires a special permission that needs to be activated after the install (go app settings in order to activate it).
Please, contact if you have troubles or questions.
Market Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ryosoftware.notificationsmanager
Compatibility:
Android 4.3 and higher for the standard notifications controller
Android 4.0 to 4.2 for the legacy notifications controller (based on accessibility permissions)
Thank you, been looking for something like this that actually works for a long time, just downloaded it, and all is working flawlessly at the moment, using the custom notification on my Yahoo email app, I can use what sound I desire now.
Thanks very much, will be upgrading to the paid version very soon.
Just a quick question though, is there anyway to disable the app notification icon in the status bar.
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for your comments. Appreciate it!
You can disable the statusbar icon clicking settings and checking the "Statusbar icon" preference
Thanks again
Your welcome, I have tried what you suggested to turn off the notification icon, but for some reason it is still visible, not a problem though, it soon disappears after I have read my notification.
Thanks again

Thanks, updated app about an hour ago, still works great, but having selected no icon in the settings, when i get an email, i get no notification sound now, it still works so well i have updated to the paid version of the app.
Again not to worry, it works brilliantly if i have to put up with that icon i will as the icon only pops up when i receive an email, then disappears after i have read it.
Thanks again.
Just published a new version a few minutes ago that ads compatibility for all holo androids (ics and higher)

this is what we need for LG G2
so we can control the LED blink
I've got a few questions
1. does this app can control LG G2 back LED
2. does this app usage impact battery life?
awesome app, must have
Silent notification

App is nice. Has a lot of potential.
Before bying the pro version:
I have set GMail as the app to work with recurrent notification.
When I set the "Recurrent notification" to silent sound I still hear the sound of the "original notification" as normal. Any workaround ?
Never gave it a chance due to app permissions
I'm worried about the permissions this app wants to be allowed. All text apart from passwords? Still enables it to collect credit card details etc.
Nah ah.
Sorry but I won't be buying this until i can test with more then 1 app (2 would be enough to test good). Also would be nice to be able to change the blinking speed of the led its too fast for my taste.

Sorry, this app uses the standard led API, that refers to the standard phone led. I think standard phone led is the front led. Sorry
This app has no effects in battery life. Service is sleeping all the time except when a notification is started.

You need to set silent also for notification in gmail.
This app develops notification and recurrent notification for any app, but you need to silent the stock notification in order to don't have double notifications.

Explain for permissions
RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: In order to receive boot completed at startup and initiate the service
VIBRATE: To allow vibrate
INTERNET and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Required by Google Ads
BILLING: To manage PRO version
READ_PHONE_STATE: Get events when phone call started and ended and silent notifications when in phone call
BIND_NOTIFICATION_LISTENER_SERVICE: (Jelly Bean and Kitkat) To receive notifications and interactuate
BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE: (Ice Cream Sandwich) To receive notifications and interactuate
You refer to a standard Android message that is showed when you enable accessibility permissions to any, but this app is not collecting none, and the Inet access is only used
by the Ads library (by Google). We are not collecting or sharing with none.

Sure. We can add vibration patterns in next release.
Sorry, more than one app is a PRO feature.
I wanted to disable vibration and sound for Viber and also set the LED to purple on my Oppo Find 5, but for some reason it did not do anything.
Any ideas?

Hi,
Have you entered "Notifications Manager" app settings and activated accessibility access or notifications access?
Is needed to activate the app.
Also, you need to disable notifications in Viber and enable notifications for Viber in the Notifications Manager app.
(I assume Viber is generating a statusbar notification when a call)
Thanks

Ohh, now I feel dumb Thanks, it works like a charm!
Seems a good app I can't wait till I try it
Sent from my EMVIRUS Sensation XL ! using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Good looks! Gonna be keeping up with the progress of this app.
I've tried to use it on galaxy s4 with 4.4.2 and it does work for notification but LED does not work. I've tried with different colors but only use default one.
Any advice?
I cant seem to get this to work with a Nexus 5
It's too bad you can only test it with one app. What if multiple apps cause a conflict somewhere, how would we be able to identify that without purchasing the app? The trial version should be the full product with a time limit of like a week or something. Don't be stingy. =/

[Q] S5 different notification lights

I updated Lollipop 5.0 recently. Everything works fine. Except for the notification lights...there is only one colour for all apps.
As far as I remember 4.4 had a menue, where I was able to put a specific colour for different apps. For example green for whatsapp or blue for SMS or red for missed calls etc.
I don't see these settings anymore. There is only one blue light notification for all apps.
I installed a third-party app, which is not much reliable. Anyone knows where the settings are...or do I have to wait for Lollipop 5.1?
You can enable and disable LEDs for certain system tasks, like charging, but to change colour for specific apps, the app would need to support that feature, such as WhatsApp - you can find that setting in
WhatsApp Settings > Notifications > Light 'colour'
EDIT - Try this

Turn off peak notifications with One UI 2.1?

I updated my S10+ (SD) to the latest One UI 2.1. Previously I had turned off the peak notifications via ADB -- with One UI 2.1 it seems Samsung has changed how and where Peak is enabled/disabled and the ADB setting was lost. I tried running the ADB command again and although it was accepted, apps are still showing heads-up notifications instead of just sticking their notification icon in the status bar (which is the way I prefer it).
Going separately into each app's Notification settings doesn't seem to show the options anymore for "sound only" etc anymore...
Any ideas?
It looks like this is now available in the app and the adb hack isn't needed any longer. It would still be nice to apply a global default with this hack rather than changing each app individually. It's there, under "Message notifications" and is called "Show as Pop-up".

Thanks but it doesn't work for me.
In my case, I would like to disable these annoying notifications in Instagram and more apps, but Instagram doesn't appear in the section "show as pop up". It's weird because most apps are there, but not Instagram.
How can I disable heads up notifications?
