Persistent LED notification flashing since latest (April 27) OTA update - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Phone updated today and now constantly flashes the blue notification LED with screen off; I have opened and checked every app that could cause that and no new notifications are waiting. Has anyone experienced this / found a solution if so?
Edit: Toggled the LED Indicator option and it stops, but starts again once I re-enable it.

Notification acting up

Please excuse my noob question. I tried to search but didn't find an answer.
My Cingular 8525 with the latest official WM5 ROM has started acting up. It seems to think there is a notification present. It blinks the LED in yellow and sporadically makes the sound currently programmed for new voicemails. If I afterwards I get a valid notification (e.g. missed call), and I clear that notification, then the LED blinks green and the phone behaves normally.
If I soft-reset the phone, a few seconds after the green Windows Mobile screen displays, the phone vibrates and plays the sound. It keeps playing the sound and vibrating every few seconds for a while, blinking the yellow LED (the phone is fully charged). I don't see any other notifications on the screen. After a while it sometimes stops playing the sound, but the LED keeps blinking yellow. The playing of the sound occurs at longer intervals if you just let the phone sit. Only if another valid notification occurs and is then cleared does the blinking LED turn green.
I haven't installed any new software recently. It just started doing it on its own. I can't pinpoint any event that started this. It seems to be activated early during the boot process, before the normal WM5 Today screen comes up.
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?

Thanks!
I couldn't find how to delete notifications with the trial version of SKtools, probably because it only shows 6 entries of things it finds wrong in demo mode, but I was able to use MemMaid. Seems like a good program so I may buy it.
There were a few duplicates, but the problem persists after removing them. Same symptoms as before.
I hope the official WM6 comes out soon. I don't want to hard reset my phone until then.
What I don't understand is that getting some notification (e.g. a missed call) will result in the phone going back to normal. Also, the sound/vibration that it makes stops after a few minutes, only the blinking yellow LED remains until clearing another notification makes things go back to normal.

Notification Bar not working (white screen).

This just happen like an hour ago, if I have a new text message, email, or missed call etc. it shows the icon on the notification bar, but when I pull down to scroll it, the notification bar just shows a blank white page. I've turn my phone off and on, nothing. I thought it was due to WidgetLocker, so I turn it off, nothing. The only thing I d/l today was an update to LP Plus but that was early this morning. Anybody have any idea or have this problem? It's really annoying me.
After 5 reboots, it's finally showing up. Mods lock plz.

Alarm icon disappears

Hello. So my alarm icon on the notification bar keeps blinking on and off kind of like a dying light bulb does before it burns out. When I visit the alarm app, my alarm is still set at the correct time and date, it's just the icon stopped working. I deleted the apps I installed yesterday (the day the icon stopped appearing), fearing these apps were the cause, however, there hasn't been any change. I have restarted my phone several times, yet the icon still stutter blinks and eventually quits. Any ideas?
Anybody? I'm dyin here.

Bug? No sound and vibration on incoming notifications (about 50% of the time)

Hi everyone,
before I take this into my list of OOS 2.1.2 bugs, I'd first like to evaluate whether I'm alone with this issue or not.
THE ISSUE: Approximately half the time, when a notification comes in on my phone - no matter from which app - the phone doesn't vibrate or play the corresponding notification sound.
WHAT SETTINGS I AM USING: I have been using "VibrateMode" for a while and have set the notifications slider to All/Vibrate/None, and this usually happens when vibration is on. So my first thought was, this might have something to do with VibrateMode overriding the original "priority notifications only" setting to "vibrate on notification".
WHAT HAPPENS: However, today this also happened when I had set my phone to "all notifications" and had the volume pulled up all the way. When I first received an email, the phone vibrated and played the notification sound. A little later another email came in, plus an update notification from Play Store and a news update from Google News & Weather. This time, however, there was no sound and no vibration, only the LED was blinking. This also happens frequently when receiving messages on FB Messenger. Half of the time, the phone doesn't vibrate when a new message comes in, but only the LED starts blinking (and the screen turns on thanks to Glimpse Notifications - otherwise I'd probably miss half of my incoming messages.)
So, is anybody else experiencing this bug?
UPDATE:
Can't say with 100% certainty yet, but it appears that activating "Ultimate Notification Control" in GravityBox helped with this issue. Will confirm after/if a couple more notifications come through correctly.
Still curious as to whether I'm the only one experiencing this bug.

No, but I'm considering updating to OOS 2.2.0 in the coming days, so I'll see whether the bug is still present then.
