Whenever I have a text message waiting or a missed call the phone's blue LED will flash sporadically for about a minute and then stops all together. I'm using DK28 ViperROM 3.0.3 and handcent. Anyone else have this problem? Is it a problem with DK28 or something else?
My Samsung Moment would flash constantly until it reached the set time out. (I used an app created by the dev. community) This is how I would like to have the Epic notification work. Is this possible?
I've always had this problem with all ROM versions since I got my phone in September.
Missed Reminder is the only app I found so far that works to force the LED to blink continuously.

Could you tell me how you have this setup? I tried it on mine and it seemed to change a little bit but the LED still times out after a minute or so.
Thanks!
My settings are:
LED blink interval: 500ms
Notification intervals: 1s
Number of repeats: Forever
Ugh
I had this issue on my LG G2 where, randomly, the green LED status light would start flashing like there is a notification, when there is none. This is related to the Alarm. I posted this over in the G2 forums and I will post it here.
How to fix:
Clear all Notifications
Turn off Screen
(wait for notification light to blink) [confirm]
Turn on Screen
Go to Clock, disable Alarm
Double tap Status bar / Turn off Screen
(wait for notification light to NOT blink) [confirm] [fix]
Turn on screen and enable your Alarm.
The LED light should no longer blink for no reason.
Really kind of disappointed in the G4 software wise. On my G2, this issue and the lagging/FCing keyboard was huge issues that made me want to upgrade to the G4. Sad to say that even the newer software and newer hardware, these bugs are still present.
Thanks for this I'm sure it will help a few people out there.

The only issue I've had regading the blinking lights was if I swiped away a notification from the lock screen and locked it again, it would blink until I pulled down on notification bar. Same thing?

Nope. It randomly just starts flashing. I do turn off notifications from facebook and XDA via android system....
Happened twice tonight already since 5pm. During the day I am hammered with work emails, gmails, text, and hangouts so I dont notice it much. But a night when its flashing but there are no notifications, i have to disable the alarm amd reenable to fix it.
Same with my old G2.
Maybe the disabled notifications are turning on the LED notification but android is hiding the actual notifications. I will try reenabling them and disabling them via the apps.
Update:
Clearing those apps in the Sounds and Notification settings menu per app page, did turn the light off. So maybe that is the bug.
It started on my G2 when lollipop update came out. It is easier to disable app notifications this way as they come in by holding the noification and disabling it on the andoid side. I'll report back if thats it.
Big problem with led notification
This is the biggest problem in my g4, at least for me.
But i didn't understand what is the connection to alarm? I don't use alarm and still have this stupid bug : (
Well the alarm toggle is just a quick way to turn it off.
I do think the connection as been found with the Android notification hiding. I havent had the problem reoccur since I "allow all notifications" in the android settings... then turn off notifications within the apps directly.
It seems Androids "hide notifications" isn't doing a great job. It keeps the popups hidden, but still turns the lights on.
Turning off notifications within the Apps may also save battery since the App is still basically polling for updates on the network side, just being blocked from displaying them.
I am still testing but I think I nailed it.
Let's be clear.
My problem is not that the LED blinks without any notification.
My problem is that although i read my notification and now have no more any new notification - the led still blinking and i can't stop it.
Thats the same thing
*same issue i had
Scenerio:
Grab my phone and light is flashing. Check notifications. Clear them. Put phone down. See it blinking still. Pick it up. No notifications. No way to turn it off.
Update: Still getting random LED notification lights. Typically happens in the evening. Very weird
Me too
I even think to turn off the led light.
Anyway it's doesn't show the real notification.
Btw, is it problem with LG or with lollipop??
Tnx
I like using timely alarm from the play store. Never had that issue.
It has nothing to do with the alarm, it is just a quick way to fix the issue.
Question: Do you use stock SMS or 3rd party? I use Hello SMS.
Ok, maybe there is connection between the alarm and the led notification, because the bug happen to me usually after i use alarm in the morning (alarm clock extreme free from play store).
When i press i VIBRTATE and back to normal ringing it's usually stop the led blinking
I use stock alarm. But my alarm is only set Mon-Fri yet it happens randomly on sat and sun. It seems to clear itself after a while too...sometimes.
everyone who have this issue -
1. do u use what'sapp?
2. in which color your LED blinking (without notification)? it it your color alert you choose for what'sapp?
I dont use WhatsApp. My notification like is green. Only seems to do this at night but I get slammed with emails (corporate phone) and may not notice it during the day.
The only app I use that is not "common" that has notifications is Hello SMS. Otherwise I use messanger, facebook, xda, gmail, stock email, stock alarm.
Anyone use an alternative sms app with this problem?
It also appears to go away eventually after more texting/emails.
Usually (!) it's happen to me when i use whatsapp:
When i got picture in whatsapp or if i got both 2 messages in whatsapp - the led keeps blinking.
Sometimes it's happening to me when i use alarm clock free from Google play but now delete this.
What weird is that not of the users have this issues.
Tomorrow i gonna go to the store i bought the device and try to talk with them.
Maybe have the opportunity replace the the LED on the brighter?
Any people have this issue??
I know 4-5 people that have this issue.
PLEASE TEST
this isuue happen to me when i got picture in what'sapp (and in more cases).
can someone try to get a picture in what'sapp on his own device?
remember- after i got picture in whatsapp i turn on the device, saw the picture and turn off the device - but the led keeps blinking.
please if anyone can make a test on his own device- it will help me!!
tnx!
I'm on Lollipop 5.1.1 (LMY48I) Notification light doesn't work. I opened the notification light in settings. And im always using Lightflow app but this time cant work.
sorry but i can't help you out with this problem but thought i'd mention that i'm on the same version of lollipop and my notification light is working fine, if it was working fine before you updated to lmy481 then it's most probably a coincidence that it stopped after the update
I've observed that when an incoming call rings the phone and it is not answered, the green notification LED only flashes for approximately 5 minutes before it times out. I'm used to a continuous notification light on my Galaxy S6 and Sony Z3 until I unlock my phone and clear the notification.
Would be nice if we could change this default behavior. I much prefer a continuous notification light vs. one that times out so quickly. Unless you use an app similar to DynamicNotifications, you may be checking your phone a lot just to see if you've missed any calls.
I haven't tried any other notification tests from other apps. Can anyone else confirm the behavior described above?

True I have the same I don't think is something we can do about it, I tried some apps but the led color doesn't change.

Dont think its a multicolour LED.
Anyone figured out to have the notification light remain blinking until unlock of the phone???

Hmmm...I wonder why an LED if you can't really work with it. I use LIghtflow, and would hope it would work on this phone. Maybe it won't.
My phone has been working nicely after the update, a little faster than before, but my notification led does not pulse any more when i get a message / other notification from other apps.
It just stays on before i clear my notification center OR
When i wake the screen, it also goes off (wich is something what happens in almost every smartphone i know)
A minor little thing what i noticed but it does not make my world go upside down.
Does anyone else have same with the notification led after the update?
I did not find anything from the settings to change it.
Same here!
Yeah, same here. I'm trying to figure if it's a bug or a feature.
Same here, it's bug.

When you receive notification, is your LED blinking or stays solid white?
In my case led does not work anymore.
Edit: after restart it works. Not flashing anymore.
Same annoying thing to me
LED just glows continuously. Not blinking. I hope there will be a fix for that ASAP.
Same here. Phone can´t be unlocked after a few time and the screen stays black. Consequently, it is neccesary to reboot it by pressing on/off switch by 5 seconds. In addittion, Led notifications doesn't work.
