Ok it blinks in blue when i have facebook notification but when i have missed call there is no outside indication what so ever.
I was so used on my nexus one the trackball to pulse in red when i have missed call, why there isn't built-in option for that here?
Any 3rd party software to solve that?

Thanks, seems that this will do the job.
But i'm still curious how they didn't give us a way to configure something quite important as that? Or at least had some default settings....
Other thing that bothers me, that there is no indicator for charging....

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 :/
I found an app in the market that uses the LED for charging! All I can say is awesome. Red while charging and blue when charged. This should be standard on the Gnex. Works great!

You could also try a program called lightflow which does all of that and more. There is a free version too.

I use Lightflow Pro and works very good on my Gnex. I can choice led color, blinking speed and duration of every notification for all programs (like Handcent SMS, WhatsApp, Gmail...). Simply the best.

So I gave it a go and it does what it says it does requires no permissions that you would find odd (only asks for vibrate because it has an option to vibrate when charged) so yeah if you don't want all the flash and extra that comes with lightflow I'd say give it a go
Awesome

Any data on how much extra battery lightflow consumes to run its service even in standby?

Probably not much since it should only awaken the phone when you receive a notification but should lie dormant until then or run in the background like Google services.

Yeah my only gripe with Lightflow is even after you dismiss an alert it stills keep popping up from time to time.

Maybe because you have it set to dismiss on app open?... set it to screen on - dismiss. I made the same mistake when I first got it... its an awesome app! I Love setting up the colors lol

Sure does. Its below the display. RGB too.

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.

Is it possible to have diff colour for diff notifications?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
you can't change it yourself.
red is assigned to power(charging/low power)
green for actual notifcations
blue for sound recording.

Actually you can (somewhat)...Well I did with the Handsent SMS app. Its possible to change the colors for the notifcation within that app so I'm guessing that the notifications colors only work if the app has it within the settings.

I'm getting something different on my Note 2.
Red is the same, for power.
Blue is for notifications (sms and such)
Haven't seen a green notification light yet.

Be aware that the install process will make you turn off air view. Just turn it back on after installing.

Wow, thanks to this thread, I finally came to know that Note 2 does have a notification LED just like galaxy s3 as someone told me it doesn't have. Lightflow is good but drains a lot of battery. Try this as well https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5rb28ubGlnaHRtYW5hZ2VyIl0.

I have no clue about the stock messaging app....all I do with it is turn off notification ....then it will do nothing. And I use handcent. You can set up handcent to not turn on the screen.

This phone does not have a notification LED. With most custom kernels, it has BLN, blacklight notification. Your four button keys will light up for notifications. Slim bean and CM 10 has built in BLN controls. One can also use BLN pro to have them blink.
