[Q] Disable led charging light - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Has anyone found a way to disable the charged/charging led? I use my phone as an alarm clock and the blue charged led is extremely bright in a dark room.
I'm running Blazer 4.1

I would try the app "Light Flow". I believe there is an option in there to disable the charging LED. I haven't actually been able to get it to work.. But I may be doing something wrong. I want to disable it simply because when it is on, the LED doesn't show the texts/missed calls.
It's worth a shot.

Alright, I've installed light flow and I'll test it when I get home tonight. Thanks for the reply.

I just turn mine over... Not trying to be annoying - just one of those "Americans spent years coming up with a pen that would write in space; Russians deployed a graphite pencil" things.

ICS lightflow and e4gt
Has one been able to disable the charging/charged led light using lightflow on ICS?

Im guessing your device has to be rooted. Smh
Epic touch "704 north Carolina"

It is rooted and running Calkulin's E4GT 2 v1.6

Keep LED on when screen is on?

Is there any way to keep the LED blinking or stay lit when the screen is on?
I'm thinking you can with light flow in certain situations, but to better understand your question, why would you want to?

Agreed that lightflow can do that for you. I just love the app now that I have a phone with led notification again

Keeping the led on kinda beats the point of using led notif..
Maybe OP works at high altitude and needs a beacon to be seen

To keep the LED on while the screen is on AOKP 26 has this built in. Have not seen any other wat to do it though.

Why I have it is when I get a text I don't remember when I'm watching videos till I see it blinking and remember. Comes in handy some points.

Then light flow will work. There's an option to have the light turn off only after the specified app is entered.

I'm running Neutrino mod and have tried lightflow. But the LED only blinks if the screen is off. I have found no function to keep it on. am I missing something?

I haven't found an option like that either. I think our only option right now is to use AOKP or try and figure out how they are implementing it and make an app of our own.
As for those of you asking why you would want this, the answer in my case is full-screen apps that hide the notification bar. I have AOKP and was happy to be able to turn this feature on.

Led light mod?

So long ago back in the tmobile sidekick days the scroll ball would blink green every 3 seconds and when i notification came in it would blink blue. Anyone kno of an app that will cause our nexus notification light to blink green in standby mode?

So you want it to blink even though there is no notification at all??? Just when its sleeping???
Kinda seems like a waste of battery to me dude. Why would you want it to blink for no reason?

What would be the point?

Use light flow. Set a notification for when you have signal and that should be just about all the time. Could also set a different notification for when you don't have signal.
Who cares what the point is if he wants to do it he wants to do it.. jeez. The light flow notification for signal should work by the way.

T-mobile has mismatched led colors

I used a LED test app to see what colors would work and the colors were all off. I press the blue button and my red LED turns on. Green turns on like a weird blue Magenta.
I'm curious if anyone else has this problem or if there's a better app out there for testing (I've tried light flow, blink, and LED test)

Yeah, it's a known issue that all the color signal are screwed up. I believe this is an OS problem and using a non-touchwiz ROM like CM9 or CM10 would fix the issue.
Mine good.

i can confirm after having the issue with the stock rom, once i flashed to cm10 the led colors corrected themselves.
The developer for light flow had already escalated this to Samsung engineering. Touchwhiz screwed up the codes used to change the LED colors. That's why flashing a non Touchwhiz rom fixes it. We just have to wait for Samsung to issue an update or for Light Flow to figure out a workaround.

The lightflow Known Issues page has the best map of the color I have seen. It's about halfway down the page.
Thank you for that... i love how samsung always seems to jumble something lol

I'm using cm10 and almost all the colors didn't work, whatever color I chose it showed up red except for magenta color and purple the rest showed up as red led's

Notification LED?

Doesn't this device have a notification/charging LED? On the left of the speaker grill, there are two lenses or whatever they are, one I'm sure is the proximity sensor, the camera is further to the side, but what is the other?
Just found it curious that the GS3 has a notification light, the Galaxy Nexus had one, but this doesn't?
Light and proximity sensor. One of them is a two piece.

Well, I have the new Steel Gray GS2, and I have no light coming out of that area while charging or any other situation.

You have to have notification light in settings like the rom I am using now liquid smooth even then only messages will blink in status bar. The notification lights used are the capcitive lights at bottom of phone you can set it to blink fast , slow etc. Also you could try BLN from the market and see if it works for you.

I just downloaded NoLED, pretty cool little program, I don't like the phone button LED's to show charging and notifications so this is a good alternative.

Yupp one of the downsides to this phone but we have found ways around it. I use bln pro and have the hard keys blink when I have a text or notification

Yup! I recently just purchased BLN Pro because I'm now back on TW based ROMs and wanted the blink feature. Awesome little app.
If you're on an AOSP based ROM like CM, it does this natively and the app isn't needed.

Lol no, light isn't supposed to come out of there. The light sensor there measures how much light there is outside so it could change the screen brightness accordingly... sorry for the misunderstanding though. The only thing we have as notification lights is the bottom row of capacitive buttons.

Have a question about my S3

Is there any way to speed up the led notification light on it or an app that will do that for me? The period between blinks takes too long! Thanks guys.
Try lightflow or light manager

Light flow is great but it's not very stable. If your phone is rooted a lot of rooms have the Led feature built right into the rom to change colours for certain notifications and the speed at which they blink. Just use light flow if your not rooted
