Is there a way to get the notification light to blink all the colors it gives me as far a options b/c it only blinks red & no other colors? I have went through the stock text app, handcent, email to change the settings but they all blink as red.
I tested this yesterday and recommend Light Flow from the market.. there is a lite version that's free and you can test out the LED light. We only have Red, Blue, and a combination of both of them that looks like Magenta. You have to set it to Green in the app for Magenta..
I saw another post on this, but couldn't get it to blink at a regular rate. No matter how I changed the flash led setting, it would stay lit for a long time and eventually blink, only to resume again. Do you have settings that allow it to flash quicker?
Thanks.
I tried the light flow app which it worked to get the light to flash but none of the colors worked but some how it disabled my email notification light.

Ive just noticed my notification LED isnt working, how do i make it work, i have got someone to text me with the screen off, still no led on silent, no led, on vibrate no led. what could be the issue
i had the same problem.
i knew the LED works because it lights up when i get an incoming call. but thats the only time it ever lights up. as soon as the call is missed it goes out, no pulsing light.
i downloaded an app called Light Flow (the free version) and works, as well as giving you much much control on the colour of the light and the different notifications it can be used on
Still cant get missed call led to flash even with light flow
any tips on setup ?
Pulse Notification Option in Settings, Display?? (Android settings that is ;-) )
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
yer its ticked, before and after installing light flow and still nothing
Is more settings for light flow im after, if people say it works for missed call ?
I am using Light Flow but have been seeing a yellow notification light and there is nothing that it is notifying. I am not positive, but I think I saw the same color notification before loading Light Flow.
I can not figure out what this is notifying me of and in Light Flow I don't have anything notify me in yellow.
Anyone know what's going on with the light?
I have the same issue as well. Even after I uninstalled light flow it remains.
You need to go into whatever is set for yellow, and find the setting that removes notifications. I had yellow set for google talk, but the notification light would go off until I physically opened the app, even if the notification was removed from the status bar. You can set it so that the notification light disappears upon turning on the screen.

Yea, I uninstalled the app, when I did have it I did use the setting you mentioned but it didn't help.
It would be nice for Google to build in something like Light flow into the system Nativity that wouldn't be so buggy.
Happy Holidays everyone!
I've read through some of the older threads on how to control out LED notification light using Lightflow and Blink and found that there are only 3 different settings:
Red: red LED, slow blink/constant on
Blue: blue LED, slow blink/constant on
White: red LED, fast blink (most useful in my opinion for notification)
Has anyone been able to get their LED to flash purple yet (besides during reboots)? This will require the red and blue LEDs to be on simultaneously but I've played all day in Blink and Lightflow and have not been able to do this. If you have, please let me know what program you're using and what settings you have.
Thanks everyone!
You have to use green for purple. Weird, but that's how it works

Sad - I wasn't able to get the purple LED by selecting green in Lightflow or Blink. Anyone else successful?f
Sounds like something that could be done using tasker, but I wouldn't know the codes.
Is there anyway to have different colors for specific notifications? Is there a app or is it just not possible to change the notification led colors?

try light flow in android market
I think you can only get red, blue, and purple (which is both red and blue LED's on at the same time). As far as blinking, only slow blink, or really fast red blinking.
Lightflow will give you options for other colors, but only those three light up. It's been a while since I tried lightflow, but I can't remember what color option corresponds to purple on it. If you select white as the color, you get a very fast blinking red instead.
I always liked NOLED. Its more for phones that don't have a led. Individual icons pop on screen for whatever message just came in and you can make it show your battery percentage on screen while charging.
i have installed the lightflow app to get more control of the notification LED but i noticed that after installing it the notification for whatsapp doesn't light up anymore. do you guys know how i would go about fixing or correcting this or is this a known issue.
also i have another question about having two notifications and how the LED reacts. Let's say I have a text come in (white LED), the phone will start blinking the white LED. Now, I don't wake the phone up and just let it sit there. Then an email (green LED) comes in. What is the LED supposed to do. from what I've seen so far, the phone just continues to blink the white LED. I thought it would blink both colors. is this normal? or what would be a fix for this?
thanks guys

I have the free version of lightflow and if I get a text (green for me) and then an email (yellow for me) It blinks a few times green, then a few times yellow, then green, then yellow. I've never tested with more than two colors/items.
As for the app "whatsapp",the app lightflow only supports "whatsapp" with the full version of light flow, I bet by turning on accessibility for light flow(free), it overrides the android defaults, hence nothing the app doesn't won't show. (Not positive about that)
You probably need the paid version.
