Does the s2 have this option? If so where do I enable it? I hate having to keep turning on the phone to see if I missed any messages or notifications... Thanks
The T-Mobile variant does not have LED notifications. Its a bummer but it is what it is.
Edit: Solution below.

Okay, I got it to work... Now when the led shows. Is there another way to go straight to the app that the led came up for? Or do I have to dismiss it first, then power on phone?
Also, is there a way from preventing the screen to turn on/off when the message or miss call comes in... I just want the led to show, no light up
how much of a battery killer is this app? just wondering haha
Notification LEDs
Are there any notification leds on this phone? I have missed a few calls and received texts, but only found out after I powered back up from standby. I have only ever had HTC phones before, and they all had notification leds...any help would be great..TIA
Not at the moment. It would be awesome if we could make the soft keys flash to notify though!

I don't really miss the LED notification that much (although i think it would be nice to have). Having a soft key flash would be REALLY cool though

I wish they'd have put the same blue LED they put in the sprint model... I like blue :/
So, I've been running Jelly Bean for the past few days, and I'm loving it. It's been a little tough coming from AOKP and not having all the features, but I know they're working hard. I've noticed that LightFlow isn't working quite right yet with Jelly Bean. I was wondering how hard it would be for someone to make a zipthemer or a flashable .zip to change the LED notification on/off duration. I was thinking blinking every .5 to 1 second. Anyone else with me? Thanks in advance!
Light flow works great on my phone. All you have to do is open and close the app when the led stays on

Yes open let the app load then close. That will clear all the led that are on for no reason.

I'm finding light flow hardly works at all. On rare occations it would work and that would be if i reset the app and have a persistent icon. I'm really missing this app too. I hope the developer fixes it or someone else gives us an alternative. It's one of those apps id gladly pay $5 dollars for, possibly $10 if it was flawless.
light flow was fixe last week, and it is jelly bean compatible. works fine for me (v. 3.0.4) :good:

You don't have to do this anymore since it was updated for jb. Surprise you didn't realize that unless you don't get updates because you didn't pay for the app

Light flow is not working at all for me,
I run the debuger widget and the light flow notification widget and they indicate that the app simply does not pick up any of my notification.
I have tried everything i can think of to get it to work, like removing other apps that i suspect may be interfering but no luck.:crying:
For those who have issues, you can try trackball alert, available on play store.

Does the Gnex have an LED notification light? I have yet to see one.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Sure does. Its below the display. RGB too.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
The notification light in Gnex is one of my favourite options in the phone. Some ROMs provide full customization of the notification light ( ex. Paranoid android) . I've set it to flash blue for missed calls , yellow for SMS, green for whatsapp and red for tango
It only lights up when the screen is off?

The rom has to support it, and you have to manually set it up...
I installed light flow. That's how I found it. I'm running Affinity rom and have not seen it work before. Maybe the rom doesn't support it.

Lightflow has been really flaky for me (misses many notification events). The built-in settings in CM10 works best. I don't recall it missing anything.

Except for receiving a phone call . It lights when the screen is off or on. That's at least what my phone does with PA rom
I love how I makes it pulse when I charge my phone.

If I have helped you.... hit that sexy thanks button. ^_^
Yup, didn't know there was one also. I got the point of thinking... maybe the VZW version just doesn't have one :crying:
And then it happened...:victory::victory::victory::victory::victory::victory::victory::victory::victory::victory:
Galaxy Nexus + LightFlow has been a great combination for me. The RGB LED notification is a must for me with any future phones.
is a full on Rom the only way to customize it? Only thing id really like to see, is for it to pulse a bit faster. The length in time it takes to pulse is too long imo. I could turn the phone on an look faster than it would take for me to stare at that point and see if there is a message.
use lightflow.

Must have been something with the Affinity rom. I loaded CNA and it works as its supposed to, plus its customizable.

Doesn't this device have a notification/charging LED? On the left of the speaker grill, there are two lenses or whatever they are, one I'm sure is the proximity sensor, the camera is further to the side, but what is the other?
Just found it curious that the GS3 has a notification light, the Galaxy Nexus had one, but this doesn't?
Light and proximity sensor. One of them is a two piece.

You have to have notification light in settings like the rom I am using now liquid smooth even then only messages will blink in status bar. The notification lights used are the capcitive lights at bottom of phone you can set it to blink fast , slow etc. Also you could try BLN from the market and see if it works for you.

I just downloaded NoLED, pretty cool little program, I don't like the phone button LED's to show charging and notifications so this is a good alternative.

Yup! I recently just purchased BLN Pro because I'm now back on TW based ROMs and wanted the blink feature. Awesome little app.
If you're on an AOSP based ROM like CM, it does this natively and the app isn't needed.

Lol no, light isn't supposed to come out of there. The light sensor there measures how much light there is outside so it could change the screen brightness accordingly... sorry for the misunderstanding though. The only thing we have as notification lights is the bottom row of capacitive buttons.

Just a couple quick questions. I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to:
A - control the color, rate, etc of the front LED. I NEVER see mine as it is. Starting to wonder if mine's broken. It was a feature I was really looking forward to coming from the tiny, invisible LED of the HTC One S, too!
B - flash the camera flash with text messages. I found a way to do it with the Galaxy SIII before I sold it but I don't remember how I did it. Dunno if it'd work on this anyway.
Any help greatly appreciated! Thanks!

This will allow you to control the LED:

So will this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.lilhermit.android.TrackballAlert&hl=en
Trackball Alert is free, but isn't as feature-full as Light Flow
Use LightFlow. The dev is working on support for the camera flash.

I have light flow already, the purchased one, and it doesn't seem to do anything. Even when I try to test the settings, the little window pops up saying the test will begin in 5 seconds, nothing happens. Screen on, screen off, doesn't matter.
Am I doing it wrong?

Are you sure you led is not broken?
I have also a question to the notification LED. If I have no app installed to control it, when should it normally blink?
I never see the LED blinking, but I know it works, because I already tested it with a custom ROM where you could set different options for it.
But I am intereseted when exactly it should blink without modifications? I defentively doesn't blink for emails on my device.

Lightflow already has camera flash notification ability... And it's had it since the Nexus 4 went on the market
If you go into the settings, scroll all the way down, there's a nice big ole button that says CAMERA FLASH LED CONTROL
Turn it on, and you're done, you can configure it in the notification settings.
Surprised so many of you thought it was broken lol, all you had to do was look at that app settings.
