Hi. Yes it does, i would imagine you figured it out by now, but just in case. You go to settings--> Display--->LED indicator, make sure the box for this option is checked. This will enable the LED light to blink again for notifications when your screen is off.
I know how important this little feature can be. I work from home, and that little light helps me stay up to date with all that is going on in my business. it lets me know when there is something new going on that i need to check out.
Hope this helps

But I think note 4 has only 3 colors, red green blue , at least that's how it's on mine note 4. It's not showing any other colors even lightflow not working.

I use light manager and am getting almost every color under the rainbow. Check it out.
Lightflow is not working, but the custom lights in Whatsapp is working - it lights purple when set ...
Someone to have an idea why whatsapp can control LED but another applications cannot?

Is there a led that a dev can eventually get to work as a notification led? Or is there simply no led built into the phone that will work. This is a very crappy issue for us NS owners that came from the N1, I miss my trackball lighting up from across the room and knowing wether or not it was a txt or an email etc..
Will the NS ever have this? Or is it simply not going to happen?

Q: There's no LED Indicator? What are those two circles next to the speaker?
Correct, like all Samsung devices(minus the Epic 4G on Sprint) thus far, there is no LED indicator light. There are apps, such as NoLED, on the marketplace which work great on the Nexus S and provide more or less the same functionality. Those two circles are the Proximity Sensor and Ambient Light sensor.

Not really the wrong forum if it were something that could be developed. It would have been a request for something to be developed. Regardless, I guess we are just stuck without an led light. NO LED blows compared to the trackball on the N1

There's literally nothing to be developed, mate. There is physically no LED light in this phone unless you wanted to open her up and install one yourself.

Splitting hairs there, bro.
And yes, I'm sure the.. er.. I'm blanking on the name of the app that will use the buttons as notifications will come around once a custom kernel has been developed to support it.

Why wouldn't you want useful things?
Out of curiosity, which tablets do have notification LEDs? I've tried searching but it's come up vague.
i've yet to see any tablet with an LED.
It's not needed as much on a tablet as on the phone with missed calls and texts.
NoLED should suffice just fine. And NoLED combats burn-in by having an option to move the notification around so it's never using the same pixel for long.
ive had noled on all s1 and s2 and s3 and i have never had any problems with it and now they have themes!!

NoLED is really only for OLED screens, on an IPS it will run your battery bone dry in double time
Notification lights for things like Gmail, Facebook, Twitter
My HP Touchpad has an LED...
Idea, is it not possible to make a costum ROM with a function, "use screen as notification LED"?
I do not mind that there is no LED. I have a U20I thats runs so slow, that any replacement for android gaming is good for me .
My current tablet has capacitive keys and I use backlight notifications, so not having BLN will take a little getting used to.

NoLED has an option to not turn the screen on when the proximity sensor is "close", so you can just keep the tablet face down when it's not on the charger.

You don't need a custom ROM. NoLED will do what you want.
I'm on my second N4. The first I didn't have long...stolen... but I remember how non existent the LED notifications were and that the volume just wasn't high enough for in car voice navigation. The rest of the phone was fab so I figured I had a faulty LED light and accepted the poor sound volume. Alas I didn't refer to this website because if I had have done so, having read the same complaints in many postings, I'm not sure I would have re-ordered. On the basis my new N4 would at least have a working LED I re-ordered and you guessed it....the same issues are present. Yes, I can install Light Flow but that is still a fix for a problem that I should not have to fix. Secondly the LED is so poor anyway that it may as well not be on the phone. The wife's iPhone 5 LED is positively like an aircraft strobe light by comparison. The N4 sound also is still not loud enough. Many people overcoming these issues by installing apps is a sign that LG need to address them properly either via a software update or on the next phone. One last whinge....even with Light Flow, I still don't get notification of emails. These two issues for me, LED & low sound, really let down what otherwise is a first class phone. Now I'm wiser if I need to replace again, I'm afraid it won't be a N4.
The iPhone 5 or any iPhone for that matter does not have a led notification light.
It does have a option to use the camera's led flash as a notification light though. Which is what you are seeing. And its not the same thing.
You might want to check out the thread on LightFlow in the apps forum, the Feb for the app hangs out there. LightFlow works perfect for me, though I don't use it for email notifications.

HI,
I want to know is there anyway that i can get the camera effects of SAMSUNG GALAXY S3, Specifically Green Point , Red Point & Blue Point effect on my samsung galaxy s4 I9500 4.3.
Kindly help i really need those effects of Gs3 on my S4
Thanks
gahhh
I miss these effects soooooooooo bad!!! Ive been trying to figure out some way to get those effects on the note 3. I dont know why they were not included as these effects were totally awesome! I really hope someone figures it out. There must be some way to extract those files from the gallery apk :\
Any news? I miss them so much... :/
By the colour point effects, do you mean a B&W photo with just red, green or blue colour present? If this is what you meant, this is extremely easy to achieve in Photoshop or Lightroom.
But in keeping the editing process on the phone, there are tons of 3rd party camera and filter apps. Heres one for example that does what I think your looking for: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=slide.colorSplashFX
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
I also miss these features. Any way we can port it from Note 2 and install it on Note 3?
Sorry if this is an old thread that has been long put to sleep, but I thought those of you who began this topic might be interested.
I too had been looking for this effect for my new mobile phone since upgrading from the S3 to the 2017 A5 and was disappointed to not be able to find it anywhere on any of the app stores, but then suddenly by accident I stumbled across it when I was looking for an improvement on my phones stock camera modes (mainly to find a better camera focussing app, but that's another story that only A5 owners will understand) and alas it does still exist and In an improved form in my humble opinion!
I found an app called "mx camera" and besides it being a great app, in its "fx" section it has a filter called "colour splash" that is exactly what we where all looking for, and it can be used both as an after effect or a live effect so that you can see what you are doing before taking the photo. It utilises a slider bar to change between green, orange, blue, purple and yellow point and works really well to create the look of the grey scale/black and white picture with only the chosen colour showing.
I hope this helps people and that you enjoy playing around with this filter!!

The led also flashes every few seconds. The Moto display does not do any such thing and though people say you can wave your hand over the phone to turn it on, that's still more interaction to see if there's anything and I tried that feature on my Moto g and it never worked.

It certainly is not the same. But the days of led notifications are coming to an end. And you don't have to wave your hand. You can also just pick up your phone and it automatically shows your notifications in dark mode.

So what if I'm typing and working and want to know if I have a message. How do I check visually without picking up the phone? With the notification light it blinks constantly. The active display can't do that and as a result is a drop in functionality for me. It's nice that the phone turns the active display on when I pick up the phone, but that doesn't replace a notification light, if anything it would work best in unison with a notification light.

Very true. But most people didn't use led notifications because it didn't tell you much (unless you download an app to configure them with different colors). This is what Moto Display and the ambient display were created for. People used to led notifications don't like it but I venture to say more people are making use of the new method.

Isn't the new method only on Moto phones though? What percent of the market does Moto even have? As for notification colors, every app I know has its own colors for notifications so it's always easy to tell what I have a notification for, unless I have multiple notifications.

No. Lollipop has ambient display which is very similar. That is why turning on ambient display disables Moto Display.

Driving mode is no gyroscope dependent. It was there on the first gen Moto G (which too, leaks a gyroscope.)
Whoa...I was considering moving from Samsung to Moto...but if no LED, it's a no go for me. I use Lightflow, and the different colors, and flash/no flash, is too handy to lose. Don't have to pick up the phone; don't have to be close to it even, to know what type of message may be waiting.

Enjoy it while you can. Ambient notifications are going to kill the need for led notifications. While it is not was powerful as led notifications, I would imagine we will see a huge drop in LEDs in Android phones in the next year or so.
