FWIW, I FOUGHT WITH THIS FOR A WEEK AND GOT NO WHERE. THE TASKER PROFILE LISTED IN THE REDDIT THREAD BELOW WORKS GREAT ON MY ROOTED PHONE. ALSO, LIGHTFLOW WORKED ON MY ROOTED PHONE. SO I AM JUST GOING TO ASSUME THIS REQUIRES ROOT
So, i have been searching and reading and asking around and I STILL cannot get the power button LED to light up with notifications.
I have lightflow installed
I have the notification and accessability settings turned on for the app
I have back button led 1 and 2 turned on
I have them turned to "always" on for notifications (I dont expect it to pulse)
I have the brightness set at 255 (But i have tried all other numbers in between)
I am NOT rooted
I am on stock 4.4.2
all other LED notifications seem to be working just fine and are the colors/speeds I set them to.
anyone able to get it working? not sure what else I can try to get it working.
if you have it working on stock rooted 4.4.2 let me know what options you have checked and unchecked in the "settings" page.
guess I'm the only one with this problem eh? lol
I didn't think it did light up. Only time mine does is when unlocking the screen.

Haha, on AOSP ROMs I used tasker to run a script that changed the values in the file that controlled the 2 back LEDs to 255 when I got a notification. Then it cleared the file, and so on until I turned the screen on.
I don't remember it exactly, and I'm pretty sure it would need root.

by default it only works for a couple apps. others have had success with the latest lightflow app, but I haven't

interesting, I poked around for a bit in tasker and didn't see anything in there for the back buttons. if you happen to come across this, or remember it, please let me know.
edit: i found the profile on Reddit to do this. going to give it a try in a little bit
Oh, please link me the reddit profile. It is probably better than mine. Haha.
Edit: Found my profile. I set it to trigger at a notification event. Works for me. (Remove the .txt at the end if you want to load it into tasker and look at it).

here is the reddit thread. looks like it requires Root so I didn't even try it.
http://www.reddit.com/r/lgg2/comments/20769k/how_to_use_tasker_to_control_the_back_button_led/
but thanks for your profile. I loaded it, and it isn't giving me any errors, but I'm still not getting it to work. I have it set to trigger when a notification event happens...I set Hangouts to the "owner application" and still not getting it working.....I have almost given up on this working without root.
thanks for you help though. if you think of anything, I would greatly appreciate any help, but dont bend over backwards for me...haha

You have to enable Motions settings also for it to work. Enable at least one.

Just installed Moar Rom. Auto factory reset is automatically turned on in the lock screen options page and I am not able to disable it. I've searched the forums and did a lot of searching online but I have not been able to find any solution for this. By any chance does anyone have any advice on how to turn of this feature? Thank you!

I think you're talking about the Power Menu in MOAR settings.

I don't believe there is anything in there related to what I am trying to solve. If you go to Settings > Lock Screen, at the bottom there is a section titled Auto Factory Reset. I would like to turn this off.

Sorry, Yes I misunderstood. Have you checked security settings for Google and Samsung. I would say one of them is the reason it's greyed out.
I found that this setting was being controlled by my Exchange server at work. I had read online that this was something that Verizon had implemented, however it appears that is not the case here.
I have been looking everywhere trying to find a solution to this. I hope someone can help. I use Do Not Disturb mode when sleeping, as many do. However, while all the "noises" are stopped, I still get pop-up messages for email, texts, phone calls, etc. I have my phone set for priority mode, with only a few select numbers able to ring through. That works, but the pop-ups mentioned still come through. In a dark room, those pop-ups are VERY bright, even on a very small portion of the screen. I know I can turn them off within the apps, but I do use them when not sleeping. Is there a way around this, or am I stuck?
Thank you anyone!
So here, you want to disable the toast/heads-up notifications, while your device is in DND mode?

Yes, that's exactly what I'm looking for. I know I can do it manually, by turning them off, and then having to turn them back on again after I wake up. This doesn't seem to be the most ideal way though, in my opinion. I would have thought Do Not Disturb actually meant "Do Not Disturb", but apparently not completely. Unless I'm missing something.
Any suggestions?

I am using N, and clearly not sure whether MM has this option or not.
Try going to Settings > Sound > Do not disturb > Black visual disturbances
I hope, there you will find what you need.

Thank you for the information - that sounds perfect. Unfortunately, that doesn't appear to be an option in MM, but at least I know it's coming! Maybe it's time to take the plunge into N. I've been reluctant since it would be on my daily driver, and not sure about stability, etc. Maybe I should just give it a try. Thanks again.
I've updated AOD (Always On Display) via Galaxy Apps to version 1.4.02, and since then, most of the time, AOD is at full brightness, even when my device in my pocket, it takes long for the screen to turn off like it should.
I'm not sure if this specific version is buggy or it is something else, but when i'm using my phone, brightness is OK.
Anyone who updated it too can confirm its related to the AOD update?
I'm just afraid of screen burns and battery drain.
I just set a note pad on the top part of my screen to block the sensor and mine dims in 1 minute by my count and goes completely blank a few seconds after that. Try this with yours.

I'm experiencing the same problem after update and its killing battery really fast so turn off for now until next update hoping they'll fix it
my screen is not going pure dark on always on display... preview of always on screen theme is good and the backuground is pure dark, but when i lock the screen, it looks little bit grey colored background.
how can i fix it? i'm on new firmware (1.4.02)
mine was different case....when it's on AOD the automatic bright sensor doesn't work.when it's active on dark room AOD was dark & when it's active on bright room AOD was always bright.how can i fix this issue?
And one more thing the new update changelog show now its support clear view case.but it's not working.when i close the cover it doesn't show the picture which i selected on AOD setting.its show only the time like before the update.

I glad to hear its version related and not my sensor or something like that.
Actually, a lot of people experiencing problems with this version, not only this problem.
I hope they will fix it soon.
By the way, do you know what the previous version was? I would like to search for an APK, maybe i'll uninstall the updates and install the good one.

You can't uninstall I tried it. I can't remember the last version but try download any version lower than the last and don't forget to uncheck auto update

You can uninstall all updates you did
go to settings, app manager, 3 dots, show system apps, find "always on display", 3 dots again, uninstall updates.
