i really miss the notification light on my blackberry so i was hoping someone can make a notification led app ? noled burns too much battery, and the one that uses the capacative buttons doesn't work too well, i was hoping for something really simple like just a small little red dot somewhere on the screen, that wont use too much battery
Hey man, a quick XDA search will show you that there are other discussions for this going around. Search and go to the topic that best suites your needs to support it. Also, you should know that your question does not belong in the development section of this forum.

is there any apps can make those menu and return keep flashing when missed call or reminder?
I haven't completely understood what you're looking for, but you can try NoLed.
Couple of pixels turn red and circulate randomly in the upper left corner of the screen.
He means can the home and back key flash when there's a notification.
No, not yet, the drivers are being tricky apparently, though they are working on it. NoLed is the best thing for the moment.

u can try flashnotify apps in market
One of the things that I missed on my BlackBerry (and those convenience keys). It would be nice to see the Menu and Back buttons have a "flashing light" effect to them. If anyone's seen the Nokia E71 on standby, you know what I mean. That's polished work there.
I also use noLED. Its in the Market now since 08/11/2010.
Just install and add it as a Widget.

doing something wrong?
Awesome app!!!
With this app and the "missed call" app now i have the best of both worlds audio and or visual.
Thx for the work guys !!!!

Can we somehow get 2 led diods betwen buttons for purpose instead of side LED..
Can someone just tell my where is lighteffect is stored on android..
i would try something
Search buddy. There is a thread already for this and if I'm not wrong, there is a market app as well.
Hi all , i'm a new windows phone user and i'd like to have an a call reminder app like bln on my samsung galaxy s.
This app it simply let the buttons to light up when you receive a new text, email, or missed call, which means you won’t need to unlock the screen to discover a notification.
If this is not possible maybe you can develop an app that will make the phone ring every tot minutes.
Unfortunately i'm not a devloper and i'm not enought skilled to help... give you an idea is the only thing that i can do !
I think this would be a top seller app !
Is it really that hard to look at your lockscreen? Every new notification is on it!
I know, that this kind of app is a must need at Android, but at WP every new notification is showing clearly at the lockscreen - you don't need to unlock it, just look at it...

i don't understand becouse u have to make polemics... if you are not interested simply don't answear to the post.
Anyway this is the only feature that i miss and well is not the same thing as u described , with this app you can simply watch the phone wherever it is and see if there is some miss notification instead to take the phone and push the button !
that kind of replies I believe it's useless. Anyway, I agree with you. In the dark it is very usefull and even in the daylight. What I thought about, since I have a optimus 7 witch doesn't have lights under phisical buttons, is that a corner of the screen could be highlighted, or even different corners, so that you don't have to lighten your screen every time, especialy when you are in a meeting or something.
it would be nice if we have sound call reminder

there is a similar app on android called no led, i tried it but it was a battery drain becouse even if you light only a screen corner all the screen is on!
yes, I can't believe a call reminder app is not available till now. How can one use the phone without it? even WM6.5 have it, how can a supposedly 'improved' WP system not have it? a sound reminder every few minutes will be fine, I won't be checking on the lock screen every few minutes just to see if I have any missed calls!!

Hi,
To check the time, I don't like having to switch on the screen with the power button, setting off the weather animation on Sense lockscreen. It's a bit awkward and uses battery unnecessarily.
So, my request to any dev is this;
Is it possible to keep the portion of the screen where the small clock is (in the top right) on all the time? Even when the rest of the screen is off, the clock stays visible ALL the time.
Not sure if it would create problems with battery usage, screen burn?
Any thoughts?
Change it to clock. Very simple.

From what i understand, you want the screen to be on all the times but partially (just the top rlght). I think that's technically impossible.
Download "NoLed" by madmack from the market. It's an excellent app and has exactly what you are looking for plus a lot of other cool stuff.

+1, you hit the nail on the head. I use this on my Sgs2, and it works well.
Regards
I'm quite sure that this will use more battery than turning the screen on once in a while for a few seconds
Wrong section and its more of a [Q] than a [REQ]
NoLed is a really good app, but it doesn't do what i'm requesting. When NoLed is active, if you look at the screen at the correct angle, you can see that the whole screen is on. Thank you tho
I'm trying to establish if it's possible to make only the pixels covering the clock area (in the notification bar) to stay on. This way the clock is always visible, and not much battery is drained(????)
That would only work on AMOLED screens.

That would only be beneficial to those who have AMOLED screens.
I am pretty sure the HTC Ace has a 480*800 LCD, and I don't think it is possible to shut down different areas of the screen without hardware mods.

ok, guess it ain't happening then....
maybe try using the desk clock, to my knowledge you use that and then u can press the powerbutton but all u see is the time and whatever else u set
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.
