I added a gmail ac and now I get no notifications for emails from my non-gmail ac via the flashing led or a vibrate, although I do get an envelope in the notification bar. I got them all before and all the correct settings are ticked for vibrate and flashing led. Have read others have this problem and it seems to be linked to having a gmail ac and not a googlemail which I had previously. All other notifications are fine - just email where it doesn't work. Anyone have any answers?
After the update to 4.3, I can't get my calendar notifications to stop vibrating. I am all stock, no root. Is anyone else experiencing this? I realize that there is a checkbox for "Vibrate" in the calendar settings, but even with the box unchecked, notifications vibrate.
Hi.
first of all. I'm using 3.71 legacy version on my N5x.
Yesterday I added 2 exchange accounts to my gmail and I wanted to set different LED colour blinking notif.
In LF I added both accounts over "pre-defined app list" and all settings (except colour of LED) are the same as for primary gmail account.
But I noticed that LED blinkin don't work. When new email arrives, LED jus blink once and that's all...
I've also done "test mode" for notification and I noticed, that I have to select "exclude from sleep mode" for LED started to blink as excpeted.
But than, in "real mode" it doesn't work.
Any solution?
Thank you.
Hey folks,
did anybody manage to get the LED light working with Whatsapp and so on? Everytime I get a message it just does nothing. With system apps it's different. As soon as a SMS comes in the LED lights up.
Thanks for the help.
LED notification -> Other Unread Notifications - > Enable
choose Color for it and you are done..
Will try and report back. Many thanks!
It works but it does not apply whatsapp individual led settings. You are however forced to stick to the setring you made in the system and not the app.
Hey everyone. I'm coming from phones that haven't had always on displays so I didn't really think it was necessary but now that I've turned it off I noticed that when I get notifications the LED doesn't work for anything except my work e-mail through the outlook app. No gmail, allo, hangouts etc. I've also turned off edge notification and tried toggling the LED notifications, rebooting and a bunch of other stuff. Am I missing something simple? It seems like I should be able to get an LED notification for everything even if they are the same color.
Edit: whoops i totally meant to post this in the questions forum.. if the mods could move it that would be great >_<
I've got the same issue, I can't find settings to adjust led
really would like to know this...always have the AOD off

You have to do it in the app settings by going to settings/app/ pick your app then go in notifications /notifications /importance and change it to urgent.
I've done this but it's still not working !

Sorry! Working here
Mine is working, but I noticed that there seems to be a timeout on the LED. So if I don't clear the notification or look at the message or email then LED will stop flashing ( approx 30 minutes). During that time I have opened the home screen and dragged down notifications view from the status bar, but as I said I have not cleared or viewed emails or messages
Well, i'm happy it's working for you but in my case it seems gmail app don't accept led notification at all.

Yes you are right , just tested and sent an email to my gmail account and the LED does not flash although I get a lockscreen notification . However I also use the samsung mail app to get gmail and when that synchronises with gmail, then the LED will flash.
I had a look at the settings in the gmail account , but can't see anything obvious

Yes, Samsung email app is working but take's so much time to synchronise, i hope Google will found a fix soon because Gmail app seems to have this problem with Oreo because not only Samsung phones have that issue!
I use an app called Light Flow, it allows you to set notification colours for various apps, e.g. Blue for Facebook, Green for Whatsapp. I absolutely love it, can see what notification you have just by the flashing colour
Just got S9 two days ago .
Can the Lightflow App enable the LED to flash notifications while screen is ON ...
BUT Always On Display is off. ?
I was also wondering the Lightflow App says it needs control over notifications and messages calendars etc. Is it reliable enough to not miss an appointment ?
