Is there any reason I shouldn't leave my notification LED on for extended periods of time? I would like to leave the LED on when I'm charging my phone.
It's not a high powered LED, so what would be the harm? I leave mine on when charging.
It's an LED. It will last longer than you, probably
I have a 7500mAh extended battery for my S4 (i9505) and even the final 5% of battery lasts for a long time.
However, the default behavior for the i9505 is to dim the screen (to the lowest setting it appears) when the battery reaches 5%.
The volume bar disappears from the notification tray and you can no longer adjust the brightness in Settings.
How can I stop this behavior?

I have a zerolemon battery and i'm facing the same problem
All I can find is your question asked on many sites,
And a lot of ignorant responses.
But no solution (yet)
Hi there,
I have SM-N900. I just installed Light Flow LED for the LED notifications.
Q: Is it harmful to set the app to blink the LED in the fastest mode with 100% LED brightness ???
Q: How much battery will be drained for this settings?
Thanks
but what is this application if the notification LED 'already in the system?
I don't like third party apps, but the major problem I have is the non customizable blinkers. I want the LED light to blink fast for the notifications
I installed light flow as it has a feature to blink led when the screen is on but that didn't worked. @asus_boy it does effects the battery life.

There is no harm in letting the LED work. I've been using Light Manager ever since it supported Note 3 and nothing have happened and won't. A LED is a pretty solid kind of hardware, it really takes a lot for it to break. The only thing I can imagine to break it is if you make it even brighter than it's supposed to be, and you can't do that with Light Manager. So, as long as you don't crank up the voltage you're fine.
Hope it answered your question.

A: Same as any light source, Increasing the Brightness and Increasing the time it is on, Will wear out the LED, Will you see the effects, Possibly not! LED has about 10 years life span (EASY) with around 30,000 - 100,000 hour depending on the LED type.
So to answer your question in Short - Yes it will cause harm in the long run, But nothing you may ever notice in the period you have the phone.
Q: How much battery will be drained for this settings?
A: I could honestly not tell you, Depending on the number of notifications, the time the LED is on for etc.
Will all add the possible lifespan of the battery before a charge.
I use the same application, and i have done since day 1 owing , I can easily get a full day out of my device, Heavy usage. Lots of notifications, Lots of game play, Display time and heavy CPU Usage.
Personally i think you will be okay
Thank you very much for your kind replies.
Thanks
LED color ?
i set the LED color to yellow with Light Flow LED, but the light is not as bright as when it was on red or green. does anyone experience the same thing? (sorry for my bad english)
I think it's LED color mixture wrong try pink and purple they look same
Hello everyone,
I upgraded my device from kitkat to lollipop some time ago (to 5.0.1) but lately i've had some problems with the ROM. These bugs are mostly not very annoying, but the LED bug is. Sometimes when i get a notification and read it, the LED doesn't stop flashing till i turn off LED notifications in the settings menu. This is also for charging battery (phone is charging (with red LED) -> fully charges so LED turns green -> I disconnect -> red LED still on). This counts for both front and back LED.
How can i fix this? Is there a fix at all? Or do i have to wait till further updates on the device?

PS i find it weird that you can only turn off the notification led for charging for the front LED, not the back LED
PPS i am a phone noob so explain stuff a little bit easier if things have to get complicated to fix
for me, when this bug appears just put the phone in do not disturb mode and put it normal again, the led stop blinking

thanks for replying and yes this is indeed a temporary fix but doing this (or switching the LED notification on and off) gets quite annoying after 25% of the notifications. that is why i want to fix it. i dont want to turn the led off since i do want to see the notifications
Has anyone else had this issue? While wirelessly charging my S7 Edge, I will wake up to my phone still having a low battery and the blue LED on the phone blinking fast.
Any fixes?...
