Just got my i747m s3 and I was wondering if the LED notification is working properly when charging.
LED notification when charging:
flashes red intermittently when charging
flashes green intermittently when fully charged
Is this normal?
I thought it would be solid colours during charging/charged, instead of flashing intermittently.
- stock rooted telus rom
I'm pretty sure it is not supposed to flash

He doesn't need to do that, his SIII works fine. Light Flow is an app that allows you to control the LED light. Even when disabled it sometimes does stuff in the background.
I disabled the charging LED in the options, myself. In my dark room it was enough light to keep me awake, so it had to go.

Never had this issue with my stock s3. Using an app to solve this can be okay but, usually, when I pay good money for a device, I want it top notch!

The phone works fine. Its the 3rd party app that's not working properly.
Basically the same form me

Since there isn't an LED light specifically for notifications, is there a way to make the LEDs for menu, home, back, and search light up for said notifications? It would be even better if each one lit up for specific apps so I could know why it's lighting up before I even turn on the screen.
Thanks for any help!
My suggestion would be NoLED.

Yeah, that's what I'm doing, but was hoping one could take advantage of the buttons' LEDs.

The closest we can get to LED notifications is BLN. You need to use a BLN compatible kernel and use the app BLN Control.

Perfect, thanks!
I'm trying to tweak some things on system tuner and my phone rebooted (but took a bit to turn on) my blood pressure dropped, I thought I killed my phone!
But after some reading.. it pretty much means the phone does not like those settings, change them.. right? Phone works fine now though, but I was wondering for future reference

Yeah, basically. If you are undervolting, you need to take tiny increments to make sure the phone is stable before going any further.

Sorry if this has been addresses....search sucks on the xda app.....what app do we use to have our capacitive buttons work as the notification light?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
You need to have a kernel that supports BLN and download the BLN app from the market.
Dark side support it?
Edit: it works.....thanks alot....just came from epic 4g touch......missing my led notification light

Does it light a single one instead of all of them at once? Customize which light does what?

Damn right it is.....my epic touch with the light had 3 colors you can modify per notification.....I still like this phone better..... be nice if we had the same amount of developers the epic touch has

But therefore it is turning the screen on and off, but in parts. Plus most, if not all, of our phones have CRT Off, which does use most/all of the pixels.
I used NoLED for a few days, switched to the paid version of BLN afterwards.
I tried both NoLED and BLN. NoLED was cool for a while, but BLN in the end is the best alternative for notifications.

So is that bad for our screens? ..to have only certain pixels light up? There is an option to have a white bg instead of black...

check this app on market "missed call reminder v1"
I was cool with the ICS upgrade and then realized why I hated the phone when I first got it. NO LED NOTIFICATION!!!!!!
Well its minor. Is there a way to make the BLNK app to work without rooting the phone, or changing the Kernel?
And also, shame on Samsung for not even making this thing built into the dam phone or ROM. Thats why I love CM7/CM9. All those features are built in.

You can try NoLed application from the Play Store. It works great for me.

by chance is there an app that utilizes the soft buttons at the bottom of the phone and have them illuminate as a led replacement?

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.

Red is the same, for power.

Haven't seen a green notification light yet.

That means with the right software it can be changed. Maybe some developer will be able to come up with something

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.
How do you turn air view back on?

Is there a way to change the notification led when i get a message or missed call? Ive tied light flow and other apps buy nothing works. Btw my OG is reported
SPRINT has a habbit of having their phones built with 2 color LED's red/green. The Nexus has multis but I believe we got left out of the fun with our OG's. Maybe somebody else knows other wise but I have been unsuccesful and am sure this is the case
My HTC Hero had a single (white) color roller ball but other heros built for other companies had the multi color rollers for instance.

I mentioned this same problem earlier. No fix that I can find, though I'd definitely throw some $ towards someone finding a way to make the notification led flash faster, even if it requires root
