No light indicator for charge status? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

A side from turning on the screen/phone, is there any other way to check charge status? Normally on phones theres a light thats orange when its charging and green when its fully charged. This phone has no lights...

Nope.

Download light flow if you're rooted

That's depressing, I'm not rooted yet so that doesn't do any good right now

You don't need to be rooted to use Light Flow.

You can also download NoLED. It's fully customizable and display charge percentage on screen.

Mod request

Is there any way or tweak I can install that will allow the notification led to light up while charging and possibly have different colors (red for charging and green for full charge) ?

LightFlow will allow you to do exactly that, plus more. Paid version is worth it.

Charging light.

Isn't there supposed to be a led or the pulse light on when the phone is on charge?

I don't why but that app won't work on my phone. I am using AOSP (I compiled from scratch) with google apps and root, nothing else. Does anyone else have any issues? I find these LED apps are hit and miss.
Light flow is the best

Last thing I want is a bright LED blinking when I'm trying to sleep. The LED is for notifications. If it blinks when charging, how would you know when you got a message?

By the color of the LED light of course.
It has an option to dim for sleeping.
I use it sometimes.

Light flow is the best for LED control IMO. It has a sleep mode that allows you to turn off LED notifications between whatever times you want and you can set notifications for most everything you need.

With Light Flow you can set the LED to stay on without blinking. And it will slowly cycle through other colors for any notifications you have besides the charging/charged notification. Also, you can tell a notification turn off after a certain amount of time
For instance, I have my charging indicator set to be a light green -- then when fully charged it switches to a dark green for 30 minutes, then shut off. So if I'm charging it overnight, I won't see the charging notification in the morning -- but I will see any other notifications since I tell everything else to stay on indefinitely.
You can also set the notifications for charging to be low priority. When a higher priority notification comes in, such as SMS or missed calls, the LED will stop blinking the colour of the charging indicator and only blink the higher priority notification instead.

How do get the indicator light to light when charging and change color when charged? Mine doesn't light when plugged in.

I second Galaxy Nexus LED. It works perfectly, while Lightflow made my notification LED completely nonfunctional.
Light flow works great for me, plus there are a lot of customization. Email the company and they will walk you through how to setup.

Hmmmm, just got GN LED, turned everything on. My Pulse Notification Light is checked and I got nothing. I even rebooted.
Any ideas why the Led isn't doing anything?
Nevermind, it started working. Time delay I guess.

Is this how the LED notification works when charging?

Just got my i747m s3 and I was wondering if the LED notification is working properly when charging.
LED notification when charging:
flashes red intermittently when charging
flashes green intermittently when fully charged
Is this normal?
I thought it would be solid colours during charging/charged, instead of flashing intermittently.

I'm pretty sure it is not supposed to flash

He doesn't need to do that, his SIII works fine. Light Flow is an app that allows you to control the LED light. Even when disabled it sometimes does stuff in the background.
I disabled the charging LED in the options, myself. In my dark room it was enough light to keep me awake, so it had to go.

Never had this issue with my stock s3. Using an app to solve this can be okay but, usually, when I pay good money for a device, I want it top notch!

Does anyone elses phone beep when fully charged?

My phone makes a beeping noise when it appears to be fully charged. The screen also lights up when it does this. Is this a normal thing for the phone to do?

Hmm maybe its a feature that it uses when I charge it with the samsung media dock. I will charge it with the stock charger and see if it still does it.
