is there a way to have the led flash orange or some other color when there is an unread text message or email?
I know that the blackberry curve and the blackjack2 both have this feature and was curious as to whether or not a wm6.1 phone could do the same.
Thanks
Try this out see if you like it. Then get the most current version.

I use the same one and I like it a lot. I suggest that people use this one because it works great.
What version is stable with our phone?
yes...it works...but once u input a wrong reg code...then u will never be able to register this soft unless u hard reset your device...thats bad.
any other ideas then?
I've installed. The LED is just blink faster but not change color. Anyway thanks!

Yah thats all it does, where you looking for something different...
It would be cool to find something where you could set various LEDs as notification for various messages...i.e. blue led = vmail, amber led = email, green led = text, etc.
im having troubles getting dontforget to work... does anyone have it working on 6.1 yet?

Hi all,
Is it possible to make the LED flash indefinitly when receiving a notification that makes the LED flash?
I'm running NextSense, but I'd like to know if it'd be possible on stock as well.
Thanks

Yes, I want this too.
By the way, Handcent SMS can do this; however it doesn't interact quite well with the stock sms app, and I don't want to use Hadcent UI as it's ugly as f***
However, you may like it. It can also set different LED colors and LED flash interval etc. Pretty neat, and IMO showing it should be possible to implement similar functionality into the stock messaging app...
Anyone know if there has been a mod/script/patch/app to allow for customisation of the LED notification yet?
Lightflow doesn't seem to work on ICS and haven't been able to find anything else - would love to tweak it - happy to test - my nexus is root ready for anyone wanting to make me a crash test.
Cheers.

Wrong forum really..... But the only 2 options are Lightflow (works for me) or Trackball notification that works with Paul's Rom.

Did you pull that from the market? I get no notice colours? Pro or Free?
Actually, just ran "test all LEDs" under tools, and its come good on LightFlow - random.
Thanks
Mods - feel free to kill.
LightFlow work (check "Run in foreground")
LightFlow works fine for me. Notification LED is only shown when the screen is off.
...If you didn't already know that...
LightFlow works for me about 60-80% of the time. But it's not very reliable.
Light Flow seems to work for me okay so far. The only issue is that the colors aren't "true." What I mean by that is that my "yellow" glow has some red and green in it as well, especially around the edges of the notification light.
Anyone else seeing this?

Not true. You can have it on while the screen is on using lightflow

I just switched from star burst to blazer from and both are great. My question is, when I used to get msg or email the notification light would blink blue instead of red. Now the only time it blinks is when the battery is fully charged. If anyone can give me some suggestions, it would be highly appreciated.
The only thing I can think of is go to settings>display and make sure the "notification Flash" is checked!

yeah, mine is red also, for text messages, voicemails,ect. Although, I think facebook notifications were blue, but I don't have the app installed anymore. When the battery if fully charged, it should be a solid blue, not blinking.
Maybe you guys r right...but for sure on the stock.. it did that. Iam probably just thinking of that. I tried bunch of rooms and none of them has it, I hope it did.
red is the normal notification color. battery full = blue, and some apps you can choose if you want red or blue.
Message is a app right. I just want a notification to show if I.got msg,email,call.. email and msg comes in and the screen doesn't turn on. I mean its not a huge deal but it would be nice

To get magenta to work select green as your color for notifications. I know weird but that's how it works lol

LOL...I don't care about the color I just wanted to have different color showing there is a msg etc...I guess I am recall lazy and its too much work for me to turn the LCD on.
Just thought I would share that this app works great with the nexus 4. It actually is running flawless for me right now go check it out in play store. You can control your led light on the front of the device with just about any notification and color
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rageconsulting.android.lightflowlite
Yeah I love light flow I use it on my galaxy nexus
Luckily one of the android blog sites helped test the app so I managed to get a release out before the phone came out. I'd hoped to get one myself, but 10 cart errors later and they'd all gone!
Glad it seems to be working ok. I'm working on improving the calendar reminder notification as they seem to go a little crazy at the moment due to change in the way notifications are displayed now (ie snooze a notification and it won't totally disappear from your notification bar - you won't get an icon, but it's still there when you pull down the bar). So this is causing some extra notifications while on snooze, but I'm hoping to get a fix out for it soon. At least I can recreate it on my galaxy nexus on 4.2.
I was getting my led glowing randomly since installing so I uninstalled.. Was I doing something wrong?
Also how badly does lightflow affect the battery?
Thanks

I have the full version.
I've noticed some colours aren't working properly. eg. Indigo will show the some colour LED as red, Navy and Blue look the same too.
Would really appreciate if someone could make a list of all the true colours that actually work?

A couple of things with this. Swiping away notifications won't stop the led at the moment: vote for this android feature request here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=23106
Also try adding the light flow debugger widget to a homescreen as that will tell you which notifications it thinks are on.
As for battery drain, I think it varies for different people depending on what settings they use. I try to set the default app settings to be fairly sensible on battery drain.

I'm planning in a future release to have a section where you can remap the preset colors to new RGB values as it's one of those things that varies a little from phone to phone. The colors were originally based on what the nexus one could manage (it was probably the best phone for color representation) and then tweaked a little for the galaxy nexus.
As I've not seen a nexus 4 (stupid google play checkout errors) yet I've not been able to experiment.
I installed the lite app, dunno why, my led was active all the time (white colour), even without notifications or plane mode. I uninstalled the app, and now my led doesnt work (Nexus 4)
I'd really like to jump on board with this app, but after a report of "My LED doesn't work anymore" I'm scared. I think I'll wait for the dev to get his own n4 to work out n4 specific kinks/quirks.

Regarding to this, I have to say that the custom color mode works very straight for me, the color that I chose is the colour what I see (taking into account the obvious deviations from IPS and RGB led, of course).
Under Settings there's something that says "Additional LEDs Found" and there's 4 LEDs there:
lcd-backlight control
lm3530 control
pm8xxx-led control
spotlight control
Any idea what these are for?
Thanks

Also curious about this.
Also, it does seem to work well so far, but testing the LED in-app does not work. Any idea why this is?
Anyone having problems with Gmail? If I set Light Flow to use priority inbox I don't get notification lights. If I uncheck use priority inbox then it works.

the testing does work. when you get the popup about waiting 5 seconds, immediately click the wake/power button and you should see the led trigger the tests.
Developer said Priority Inbox isn't working right under 4.2. Will be fixed once a fix is found. Regular inbox is fine.

I have a weird bug with LightFlow. When it is enabled i will randomly get Accessibility voice when inside chrome. Like, she will say "NEW TAB" or she will call out the page title of every thing. Then if I disable light Flow, the bug is gone.
Would like to use it but if with this here....i can't. Unless i got something set up wrong, but i check all accessibility settings and they are off except for light flow

Check other Lightflow threads. I remember reading about on the S3 thread or GN thread. I've never had it happen, but remember some other people talking about it.
Tested it a couple of day and is not working properly, light notifications are very slow to get dismissed and sometimes the led blink without a reason

What? No. Outside of only inbox and not priority inbox it's working great. Same as on my S3. It sounds like you didn't properly setup your dismiss settings for how you want it. There are a lot of options.

Hey all,
I know that in contacts you can set the notification LED's colour to be a certain colour for a certain contact, but I was wondering, is it possible to use an app or something or manually set it for each function?
Like when I get a message if it could be say purple and when facebook notifications come through could it be blue, when I get a call it could be green, etc.
Unless the G3 already has this feature built in (In which case I'm missing it) does anyone know of a way to do this? I had an old LG phone and I was able to do it with that but I'm not sure if you can on this one. Can you without rooting or is there a way to with root?
Thanks in advance guys!

Try out Light Flow. The link I provided is for the free version. If it works out for you you can upgrade to the paid version which will give many you more options.
Light manager works and does not require root
Cheers guys
Light flow doesn't require root to function well...
