Hi, I have noticed that sometimes when I have a notification, the led doesn´t blink at all, and sometimes it does. I have official IMM76I, and I have noticed it mainly with Whatsapp, but it can be because is the only program I use with the phone silenced in my work.
Have you noticed that?

Where are we talking of color option?
I have noticed it even with GTalk and many other apps. Yesterday, I was playing when a notification sounded. Without turning on the screen, I kept watching the phone but the LED never blinked. I turned on the screen and I had a GTalk message.
Nothing else have noticed that problem?
I have had this problem as well on my VZW nexus on AOKP m5 and earlier versions as well. It doesn't happen all of the time, but maybe 10-15% of the time with SMS and at least 90% of the time with gmail.
I can see a gmail come in on the notification light on my Xoom, but nothing happens on my phone, I'll check the phone 5 min later and the email is there but no notification.

You mean there is not the notification icon on the upper bar?
My problem is different, I have the notification icon, but the led doesn´t blink
Notices this as well with various apps. Native as well as 3rd party. Doesn't bother me that much just makes the OS less 'perfect'.

I ask in XDA to know if anyone else have noticed this, or is a problem with my phone.
Also, I have reported it to Google, here is the link:

Have you tried the light flow app? Maybe it would fix the problem and give you more customization too.

Thanks for the idea, I have not tried the light flow app; but I have asked in another forums and people with than app also have noticed the problem.
Anyway, the objetive is to find the bug and report it to google, so they can fix it in the next update for our Gnex
Anyone else with the problem?
Is the option checked in each program? Those who flash rooms and rebuild everything might forget an app or two that does not have the option on by default.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
I've noticed from time to time as well... But the other thing is that even when it does blink, it often shuts off fairly shortly afterwards.
It would be nice if there was options to ensure that it blinks and keeps blinking until you acknowledge it.
Light Flow works perfectly for me. Never had an issue with it not blinking or blinking incorrectly.
I use it as not all the apps I have on my phone have LED light functionality natively, and Light Flow takes care of that.

Yes, because the problem is not always, and the same app can work, and not work sometimes..
There's this strange problem my phone has where the flashlight is turned on whenever i hit the power button to turn off my screen It has been working fine on android revolution rom for the past 3 months then this problem started occurring just this morning. Going to the official htc flashlight app to adjust the brightness works but it cannot turn off the flashlight unless i initiate a shutdown. anyone has any idea how i can solve this problem ? is this a hardware or software issue ?

If it worked before you tried a new ROM it's bound to be s/w. Is Tasker baked in to the ROM or did you install it? Some third party app is triggering Flashlight to launch when you press the power button. You might want to check the dev who built the ROM's thread or ping him or her.
In aokp there's a turn flash light on by hitting power option in the settings have a look at your roms settings.

this rom isn't exactly new its a 3 month old build and has nv given me any sort of problems before till this strange problem started occurring. Is there any way to disable the flashlight for good so it doesn't keep turning on and draining my battery ?

If it were me, I'd want to figure the problem out as what's causing it may not be limited to Flashlight (EG: other things are being turned off or on and you just don't know it). I you want to disable it, go in to Apps>All>flashlight and clear data, force stop, and then hit disable.
Do you have EQS? If so, try to turn flashlight on then off again from the EQS tab itself.

its software related.
i m using viper rom and it has the option to trigger flashlight when power button is pressed (while screen off) . ive enabled it. so yea, you can disable it as well.
so check that.
Well if you're on viper it's an option for flashlight.. You can change in venom tweaks...

In first app u can set time flashing, how long should be flashing and even it wont solve you problem, that second app will turn on your screen for a while and it turn led flashing corectly, some roms has issue that led doest work when is screen off. But i think second app solve you only sms flashing, missed calls not. Try fist, I had it and work properly.
EDIT: First app is for everything....missed cals, email, facebook etc.
Hi guys, i'm having some troubles with Light Flow and KitKat on my Nexus 4.
I have set the led notification color etc.. but when there are notifications the led doesn't pulse.
I also try the testing mode of any notification and the led doesn't pulse but the led works..
Someone else has this problem? solutions?
I dont have any issue on my nexus...and you're wrong forum section..it should be on QA and Answer..

Same thing happens on my N4 with the paid version on stock rooted KitKat. I did a LED test in Light Flow to make sure everything works and it does, but the LED lights up about 20-30 seconds after I begin the test.
I then tried the free version of LEDBlinker and the LED lights instantly during the LED test and actual notifications.

No problem, at all.
Light flow works like a charm to me.
Stock, rooted, clean install of 4.4.
I have a problem on KitKat it notifies me but sometime a notification isn't dismissed from the app so the led just keeps flashing. Its annoying but as KitKat is new it'll hopefully be fixed.

I have a issue with lightflow too .. sometime the led is working like a charm, then sometime (like 20% of time when i got a notification) nothing happen, i mean there is no led notification AT ALL !
Didn't try LEDBlinker because i like light flow for its feature to open screen for 5 second when a notification income
I have the issue where if I want read a text message after my screen is turned off then the light blink continues to go off. Its really annoying

I had also wait a bit to see if the led was pulsing, but now it doesn't works..
I couldn't find anything on internet so I thought it was only a my problem..
Make sure to turn the accessibility service on and tick the notification access. (Security->Notification Access.)
Works perfectly fine for me, haven't had any issues with Lightflow on KK.

Try using Light Flow in "Foreground Mode" (No idea what the setting is called in English - i'm using localization), it sometimes gets killed by Android to free up ressources for other apps.
There's a new update out that has a few fixes for Kit Kat. The long delay of LED notification was fixed on my phone and all my custom settings react instantly.

The same happened to me, I found a temporary fix for that specific issue, though. If you go into the Lightflow there should be an option called like "Hangouts - All Notifications" or something like that, enable that one and the LED should start working again when you get an SMS in Hangouts.
The update isn't perfect... Sometimes it fails in SMS, but i think it will b just fine in the next couple updates, it's a very good app.
Maybe there is dust...try to open phone i clean it from inside

Are you on 4.4? Did you did a fresh and clean update or simply updated 4.3 to 4.4? There are some people experiencing issues when they just updated..
Hi guys,
Yesterday I decided to flash my ZL (c6506) to 4.3.
Before this update, the LED used to turn on during a phone call (it started at the same time the call was answered).
After the update, the LED is not turning on during phone calls.
What do you think...
Is this normal? probably a bug? Incompatibility with another app?
Hope someone can help.
Regards

That's a good tip, I was trying with the apps installed recently. I ll give it a try with those controlling led.
No luck yet.
Let's make a list of the apps that works with the LED and find the common one.

When you installed 4.3,did you make a 'fresh start' I mean everything was erased and installed all over again? After flashing all my apps and configurations were there. I have tested uninstalling almost all the appd using the LED and not working yet.

Yeah the light we are talking about is the one that used to turn on right away WHEN making a call and DURING the call till you hung up but it's not working anymore at least for me and the color of the light depends on the theme you are using. Also my phone is not flashed or rooted but still after updating to 4.3 the light stopped working.
The same problem here too, seams like is from the new fw
