I have Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus however i am unable to identify app i can settle for cutout notification.
I have used Energy ring however it does not let you change until you buy the application for battery indicator but it does not have notification settings.
Holey light had so many setting options that i got confused and uninstalled the app
Good lock screenshots are in chinese hence i do not know what exactly it does
Energy light+ looks good but not installed to check as of now.
Which one are you using and which one you removed?
I dropped the $3 for Energy Ring. I don't need a notification light as I have my Gear S3 for notification. Don't regret the extra features. If $3 is too much, sign up for Google Rewards (taking surveys). You'll have $3 in no time.

Does it work with the screen off, as a notification light though?

Yes, it does. Why don't you just give it a try? It is the closest solution, yet.
Try Holely...
Holey Light all the way...
I paid for Energy Light. I love it. I use Good lock (with Quick Star) to remove the battery icon and only leave the percentage on. I use Holey light for the AOD notifications but I honestly don't think it makes that much of a difference and I don't think i'll miss it. I will keep Energy Ring though! lol
AOD-Edge Lighting app for me , very easy to make it work

Just wondering if the Nexus S has a notification LED like every other phone, except the Galaxy S of course. Can't find any info of that on the latest previews/reviews.
Early reviews says it does not have an LED.
Use the NoLED app on the market instead http://www.appbrain.com/app/noled/com.led.notify
Hmmm thanks for that! Last time I read about NoLed it was an alfa and ofcourse very limited, but I see it has progressed a lot. I've been using BLN on my Captivate for a while and kind of like it but will try NoLed right now.
yup, no notification LED, luckily noLED has turned into an amazing app. i'm actually using it on my Nexus one. people always find it pretty awesome when they see the trackball and the screen have the notification.

noLED creates a notification icon (dot or actual icon) on your phones screen when you get a notification.
on OLED screens, anytime a pixel is black, it's not using any power, so with phones that don't have LED's, using the screen works since your only lighting up the part of the screen with the notification.
To save even more power you can make it a simple pixel in one corner, or use an icon that moves around the screen (what i use)
And it looks damn awesome too.

Hmmm.....giving it a try, as we speak. Very hard to imagine life without a dedicated notification light. Seems totally insane!!!
You're telling me!
Coming from a Blackberry, I would DIE without a notification LED.
Anyone have issues with the battery life when running the noLED app?
Backlit dedicated buttons...
Just tested NoLed by sending a chrome to phone link. My only real concern is that I noticed the dedicated buttons at the bottom of the N1 seem to remain lit, in addition to the tiny colored pixel notification. Do they stay lit indefinitely??? I did not notice an option to disable this, but I didn't watch it for more than a minute or so to see if they would turn off. It pretty much looked like they were gonna stay on. Pretty sure that would be detrimental to battery life. Did I miss something?
Well, on my Captivate I disabled BLN(custom notification system for Galaxy S that uses buttons backlight) and only have noLed for notifications. It also has the option to use the proximity sensor to turn the screen on/off so it isn't displaying anything while the phone is upside down or in your pocket. Very nice app.

Oh wow you are right, it does look awesome
this is awesome.
It doesn't seem to work with Launcher Pro on my Vibrant. =T
On my Nexus One, I use LEDs Hack: http://www.appbrain.com/app/leds-hack-(root-only)/net.geekherd.softbuttonshack
To turn off the soft button lighting.
Maybe with a combination of this and noLED, we'd have a good combo.
i dont get it, i seriously cannot live without a led notification light on my phone, if google had time to include a NFC tag reader why did they not include a led notification light? even the nexus one has one!
anybody working on or considering making notification light using the capacitive buttons on the bottom? is it possible to use those leds as a notification?
That would be an awesome solution...
To use as notifications OnLY the capasitive buttons and not all Screen as "NoLED" app...
+1 from me...
+1 I also agree
and maybe a stretch and maybe you guys dont agree but you could also have each button be a different notification, ie:
text message the back button would light up, email the menu button so on and so fourth
+2 for this idea
It's already been done for the galaxy s's, BLN requires a custom kernel though.
I prefer NoLed, in the market, works great for notifications. NoLed
Im thinking about getting a Nexus S.
The only thing stopping me is the lack of notification LED.
It would be pretty good if this could work.
And being able to tell if its sms or email etc from which button lights would be very cool. But i would think the backlight is just one big light.
I've had a look at NoLed, but it doesnt seem ideal. If i get a notification while im asleep, the screens going to stay on for up to 8 hours non stop? That doesnt sound good.
Also it seems to mess with the lock screen and wake up of the phone.
So i just noticed today when pressing the capacitive button, it turns off. that likely means each one is lit independently from a separate LED correct? so if thats the case, theoretically each led should be able to flash independently?

From what I read... the NOLED app works well with the AMOLED screens because blacks dont use power. It basically turns on for that single notification or something like that.
You should read more about it from the vibrant sub forum.... with both having AMOLED screens.

Correct, in amoled screens the only pixels drawing power are the ones that are being lit for the notification. You can also set the notifications to timeout after a certain amount of minutes, and can also set a "sleep time" so there no notification while you're sleeping at night. Another awesome feature is the use of the proximity sensor, so that if the phone is in your pocket it doesn't turn on the notification but once you take your phone out of your pocket the notification shows up on the screen.
Check the devs thread for more info:

You would think this would've the case but not exactly. The galaxy s does this also but it is not possible to activate the leds separately

Yes, I was also thinking this too but could there be some sort of app written making it believe all other buttons were "pressed" so their lights were off once a notification came in? I strongly believe ANYTHING can be changed with a few smart edits I mean people here on XDA bring multi-touch and FM radio's to devices that shouldn't have those features!
Even if you could have each notification have a different light dimmed as if it were being "pressed"
As in: Text message= all lights lit BUT the home
Voicemail=all lights lit BUT the back button ETC...
If they could be seperate that would be great but honestly even if it's all of them it's good enough for me, I just wanna see SOMETHING if my phone is just sitting there

NoLED is ok except for 2 things for me.
1 - I don't like the dots/icons hopping around the screen. I would rather they were just lined up across the top or the side.
2 - It plays around a bit much with turning the screen on and off.
Looking at NoLED there is NO reason why he couldn't make it act exactly like the Notification LED for the Ball on the Nexus One. Just have different colors for different notifications and rotate them on the same cluster of 4 LEDS on the top right of the phone.
Boom you have rotating colored notifications simple and effective
I wish I was better at coding stuff...haha
I'm glad there is a thread going about this!

You couldn't be anymore on point man. The jumping about is slightly unprofessional.
hopefully well see some work towards this once some custom roms start coming out
The reason the notifications move around the screen is so that it doesn't burn out those pixels.

Yes I agree, it would be amazing if they just slid around your screen or drifted all over. OR a pulsing light pops up on the screen just like a virtual trackball like the nexus one!

Hello everyone how do I turn of the notification led please?.
Never seen a option

The impact on battery life should be absolutely minimal. It blinks when a application sent a notification with a LED-request to the phone. Usually, you can turn this off in the application in question.
For example, Gmail lets the LED blink green when a new E-mail was recieved, Twidryod lets it blink blue. In both programs, you can deactivate the LED-notification in the settings of the program.
None of my apps (incl gmail) have any LED options, and I've never seen the LED flash at all. Not for calls, sms, email or anything.
Could be under sound, pulse notification light?

OK so I have a VZW G2 and my friend has an ATT G2. When he gets a text message his screen will turn on and mine won't. And his notification light blinks about every 2 to 3 seconds where as mine is something like everything 30 seconds. These both suck and I want it to be like the ATT version but I can't figure out how.
Any help would be great.
One more thing, I've also got home screen redraws and he said he has never had one. WTF?
Interesting. I hate how the screen doesn't turn on when I get a text on my VZ g2. Would love to hear the answer or if the is a fix.

Been using this since I got my phone. The time isn't very accurate in my experience, I have it set for 10 seconds but it's closer to 5 or 6. Anyway, it works well enough so I haven't bothered looking for another similar app.

Just tried it. It does wake the screen but then it gets rid of my notification light and missed message icon in the status bar all together. So if I missed to screen turning on I wouldn't know I had a new message at all.

I use Light Flow for LED control. Stock LED controller has never been very useful for me. You can easily set different colors and durations and pretty much anything else you'd ever want.

Plus one on Light Flow. So many customizations and can even control your power button led and flashlight. Blows all others away imho.:good:
I can't get Light Flow to do anything other than wake the screen.
Hi all. Been with my S10+ for almost a month now, and this device is kicking ass.
Just missing one thing though, and it's the battery indicator using led light. For the notifications, I use Holey Light by chainfire. For the battery indicator, I tried energy ring, but I but comes short as it won't show on AOD.
Does anyone know any app that uses the punch hole for battery level indicator? Like when charging, it'll show the led?
Thanks in advance!
Deleted. Read the question incorrectly.
Anyone mates?
Energy Ring is one but there are others.

I've used it, but it turns off on AOD. What I need is something that is still on even on AOD.
