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

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.

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
Ok so on my et4g, the proximity sensor is lit up. I've never seen or knew it could light up.. it's a dim orange. Yes I'm positive its the proximity sensor too. I've messed around with it and it is still working..
Attached is a pic of it... looks light purple but it's not..
Anyone know why this could be lit up and not go off?? I've never seen anything like it before

Maybe the red led is screwed and if by any chance it is purple its just red+blue at the same time
I say reboot and if this keeps happening logcat and try a new rom
Your last hope would be going to the sprint store

How about a picture in the dark without the flash?
Not calling bs or anything, just covering all variables here. The 'lighting up' could be light reflecting off of it. I've seen mine shine before in the right light. It's not an LED so if it's actually emitting any light, in case you didn't know - that's not good
Seriously though, no flash and a dark room or it didn't happen.
That was in a dark roon with no flash on the other camera. If flash was on the et4g screen would have a flare on it.
I figured out what caused it.
It was an app called -notification pro plus-
There is a setting under general settings to use the proximity sensor.
I guess it doesn't work well with out phones.

Red and blue LEDs are on the left side of the phone, not the right.

its mainly with sms apps like handcent and go sms. although handcent tried to fix it they made it much worse and the frequency of which the led blinks is very slow. my question now is does anyone know of a good led control program or anyway to fix the led to make it blink regularly
Light flow from the play store. Has a lot of options. Hope this helps.

tried it already sorry forgot to mention i tried all the led programs in market and none worked. they showed a diffrent color from which i set and it wouldnt blink with light flow it would stay solid until i deactivated it
Has anyone played with the hex #'s to figure out at least the basic colors? I've been able tlbmske red, white, and some pinkish color on go SMS using the hex sliders but since the colors don't match anything its like a guessing/trial and error game.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
llol then you see what i mean. neither handcent nor go sms does the led correctly. handncent doesnt even let you choose a color anymore just to try and fix it with s3. ive tried all combonations of the sliders and market apps none of them work correctly with s3
I've done my research and it seems the led drivers and such on the two gs3 are screwed up. This is something Samsung has to fix with the next update. For now we are left with the random colors lol. It's annoying I know.
On go SMS I was able to create purple, green, red, yellow, and white. A long with some pinkish color. Other than that this Sucks haha.

Yes, there is a bug with the US GS3s. I wasn't able to get any third party to blink but you can use this list for now to get the color you want.
Light flow developers are working on a solution for their app but will require root access looks like it is in beta now.
good to know light flow is trying to fix and im rooted so no problem there.
OK, might sound like a dumb question. I know the standard LED notification light location. But yesterday I noticed another faint red glowing from the circle close to the speaker (right). I was able to replicated when I opened the messaging app. If I selected I conversation it would glow faint red, and when I backed out to the message list it would disappear. What the hay is that light for?

White LED
I dont see the white LED glow either on my note 3 which used to happen on the note 2 is this a bug ??
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
