There are some apps which send me notifications to the notification bar, but they don't allow any LED configuration, so I have to turn the screen on to see them. Is there any app to set up LED alerts?

Not really sure what you mean, but you could try LightFlow. Within the app you can configure different LED notification colors to different apps (i.e. blue for gmail, green for gtalk, etc).
Using lightflow on a stock unrooted GNex. Gives me the notification led i need. I have set the colors different for each particular app that gives notifications so i know which is which

Is there a way to get the old led notifications from stock roms to work with cm6.1.1? I found the setting in cyanogen settings to pick a notification color but it blinks for a second on the right side light....as someone that always has their phone on vibrate, having the solid led when I get a text or email is key....any thoughts?

Hi all, I've just missed called my gn phone to check how the led notifications are working, I see no led notification at all, no led lights anywhere on the phone to let me know I have a missed call? Is there something I need to set up, thanks

Check your notification settings
There is also an option "pulse notification light" in Display settings.
i have the same problem.
i have ticked the option "pulse notification light" in Display settings but th eLED doesnt flash after receiving a miscall. i waited a few mins and still nothing.
i know the LED works because it flashes while the caller is calling, but just switches off after the caller hangs up.
is there another notification setting for this other than the one in Display Settings?
The notification LED has been implemented pretty badly natively. In addition to not appearing very consistently it also only flashes white. Look for the app Light Flow on the market and use that instead.

Thanks Chrono.
I just saw the Light Flow app recommended on the other LED notifications thread and tried it, and it works well!
But yes i agree its seems a pretty sloppy implementation by default, i hope it gets fixed in a software update, although i probably wont be moving away from light flow with all the extra control you get with it
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.
I know that many of you use the app light flow to control you led notification colors, but I'm trying to avoid using it as it drains battery power.
I noticed that when I get an email from Facebook, my led turns blue (no Facebook app installed) and I just received an email from eBay which turned the led green. I haven't seen any others except the white notification.
Does anyone have a list of stock led colors that don't require extra apps?

So I noticed my phone's LED glowing red the other day, and it turned out it was due to a Google+ notification. I thought it was cool that the app was going to start using an LED notification from now on by default, however I have since stopped receiving LED notifications, and this seems to correlate with when I uninstalled the Google I/O 2012 app.
Has anyone else noticed this? The Google I/O app caused the LED to glow a sort of light blue colour when it was reminding me about the keynotes, but I find it strange that it's affecting other apps' LED notifications. Has the G+ app always given a red LED notification? Anyone have any ideas about why this might happen? Re-installing the app seems to re-enable the G+ LED notifications.
