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 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.
I thought I saw my wife's phone has the tiny Green LED on top that flashes on missed call. I don't have it on mine. How do I test or get this LED to flash? Does it even exist or it's replaced by the bottom RGB LED? Either or, can someone please educate me on this? I must have turned off the feature somewhere perhaps?
Thanks in advance
You may have turned off the pulse notification light. But if you haven't you should probably know that the light is kinda iffy sometimes lol. Download light flow and you can set the color of the led and for it to blink at a certain speed or even be a solid light

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.
Hi I can't seem to find a video that confirms that the galaxy note 2 has a led notification light. Can anyone confirm this? Does light flow app work on it like the GS3?
Thanks!

Mine is blinking at me so I'm going to say yes there is a notification light on it. I'm not sure about light flow though since I've never used it (nor used a GS3). I just installed it and it seems to recognize many LED and gives me colors. Now just have to get messages or something to see if it works. ;o) But yes, there are LEDs and no reported problems with light flow yet.:good:
multi-color led notification... download Light Flow from the market and play away my friends
I've seen red, green and blue so that is a big yes on notification lights
if u download blink from the play store u can get Purple ,Light blue and Yellow .:laugh:
