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?

Anyone know why my LED light is always on when the screen is off?
I have no alerts, a full battery, no new messages, etc..
It was a yellow solid light then i installed light flow lite and it changed to green.
I've tried to eliminate any color that uses green to find what is using it, but for some reason it always comes on when I turn the screen off.
Its a known issue with Light Flow for the US sg3.

Hello. Since I dont see any complains or posts about notification led, I create this post so we can share our opinions
I mean, our led is weak, not multicolor, it stops blinking after a few minutes, and when it is charging it is useless because does not blink at all (stays red).
The multicolor and weak issue it´s hardware..So I dont think there is any solution (multicolor is very useful, for example to tell apart whatsapp mesage or group, so maybe is more or less urgent..)
But, do you know any solution for "blinking time" issue and the charging issue. I read that Viper Rom has some Mod or something, but I prefer staying in stock for the time being (however, I do have root)
On the other hand, i have tried light flow app, but I do not get the led blinking, it keeps static
Thank you for your help!
Custom kernels have blink button led lights so the home and back buttons blink , this is excellent.

I think some GPE roms let you choose to have blinking led for notifications even when charging and yes, ViperOne lets you specify how long the led should blink for (its set to 60 minutes by default! lol) and you can also turn on led blinking when charging
Use Light Flow LED app from the play store. It provides an option to set different colors for different notifications.

Really? Haha that's a very strange alternative, I'll take a look

Okey, so that could be a good solution. However I am gonna stay on stock rom until 4.4 goes out, then I surely will try some roms with this tweak

Yeah mate I tried it, it seems to work, even it gets a weird yellow led, but the led stays static, I couldn't get it blinking
Came from a long line of blackberry's so the LED is probably one of the only things I really miss. You said you're rooted, have a look around in /system/customize/ACC/default.xml or whatever your CID's xml file is:
<item type="integer" name="NMS_feature_led_flash_timeout">5</item> - change the 5 to 0 and you should get no led timeout.
I also did the following (personal preference, I charge at night using a dock so i like to be able to glance over and see if theres anything waiting when on silent):
<item type="boolean" name="NMS_feature_flashlight_during_charging">false</item> - change from false to true and the led will blink for a notification even if it's charging.
Terrible LED is for me the only thing wrong with the One. Real shame. A partial solution for me is to install Dynamic Notifications (free/paid app) which give a Moto X type visual when notifications are received. I set it so the screen goes white instead of black and flashes every minute or so after a notification arrives. Still not ideal but saves relying on the crappy LED!

Really? That's so awesome. I will wait to arrive home to try that, just in case something goes wrong... But thank you so much, if it works.. That's all I was looking for
So then the only bad thing would be that it still weak and not multicolour. To be honest, is the only bad thing I can found in this amazing phone
You are wrong i think...

Dear friend the all think with the notification led is so wired for me.I bought my one with vodafone branded new with 4.1. something firmware i think.The notification led in that firmware was bright enough no problem at all.With the 4.3 firmware witch i had now the intensity of the notification led has reduced significantly, plus i noticed that if your phone switch of during to battery empty and then you plug it for charging, the notification led opens for 5 seconds as normal as in the previous android versions....then looses its power again....So i think that this is not a hardware problem .

Yup, agree about the LED, the green/red is a hardware limitation by HTC so lightflow and other 3rd party apps don't work in changing the colour.
I didn't explain the above fully but let me know if you any issues, will be happy to help.
Hmm I have not noticed less brightness with the last update, I feel it as weak as before..

That was perfect, just edited the file and it's all. So easy. People should know this tweak more, could be very helpful
Thank you so much

Was just searching for light flow fix htc one and found this. Bummer but thanks
Would we cool if we at least could somehow mix the red/green blinks, ie having WhatsApp blinking red-green and LINE green-red. Is not much but at least would be something. You can even take it further and have more blinking states like green-green-red or red-green-red-green and so on. Xposed module anyone?

I was exactly thinking the same buddy!
also is there a way to make the 'back' and 'home' buttons bink, without installing another kernel?

I think it's possible (search on the Market). The main difference (I believe) is that the kernel-solution will not drain the battery (other than the power consumed by the lights) and a application should be running on the background all the time listening to all apps thus draining a lot more battery. This is just the way I see it, I don't not if it's really the case!
It stops after a few minutes because It would we shifty annoying if it's keep flashing in 2 hours...

That should be our decision, should't it?
Is anyone else noticing high battery consumption with Light Flow? My last charge screen used 12% and Light Flow used 11%. CPU Total for Light Flow - 4h 32m and it used 371 mAh. Compared to 412mAh for the screen.
I have lightflow installed and do not have this problem. Try looking further into the settings?
I have it installed and no issues
I
My battery drain isn't THAT bad where Light Flow has almost the same battery drain as the screen but I did notice through the first three days that it always seems to be the second biggest culprit of battery drain next to the screen. I'm using the Lite version. Not sure if others are or not and if that has anything to do with it but I never saw Light Flow near the top of battery drain ever on my Nexus 5.
hmm, light flow isn't showing up in my battery usage and i've receive multiple notifications using light flow
Same here. Using the full version, and noticing hardly any battery drain on it. In fact, it's never shown above 0% yet.
I used it in my S3, device never went to sleep while Light Flow WAS running. I had wake lock issues with Light Flow
I haven't been using it enough yet to see any actual stats, but the persistent notification does seem to constantly make the active display light up which I'm sure will cause an impact
I have the paid version of Light Flow with tons of notifications setup in it... no battery drain issues here. Battery life has actually been incredible.
if you don't install LightFlow, will the Nexus 6P still flash the LED notification light for things like emails, or missed call, or text, etc?

Yes it should, but you have to check "pulse notification light" under sound and notifications in the system options.

Right, that's what LightFlow gives you, the ability to recognize the type of notification just by blinking LED without waking the phone.
Hey guys, quick question. I've had my 6p for a while and running cataclysm since day 1 so I don't remember about this. But, does the LED light stay lit when charging on a stock 6p? My brother just got his in today and it's dark so I'm just curious if it's an issue or that's just how it is stock. If it's normal I'm gonna have him use lightflow to activate so that's not a problem.
Nope, the notification LED does not light while charging. It only lights for notifications.
As sildar stated, by default it won't light up but you can use app's like lightflow to do so, should you want it to light up
You can also use Daydream. I like seeing the analog clock while the device is charging. I know, doesn't resolve your LED question but perhaps a useful alternative.
