Try that. That should work. Else re-flash or if you're not confident of that, go to cc

Led indicator is on, that's for sure. I didn't touch it.
Only shut down has light, the rest charging etc has no light.
Tried reflash also.

U can use light manager instead.

Sorry to revive a long-forgotten thread, but I received my n7105 from UM yesterday and the phone works perfectly apart from the LED indicator not lighting up.
Just curious if you found a way to fix this issue or was there some hidden setting which was hindering the LED light working correctly?
I also installed light manager but unfortunately it doesn't seem to help the situation.
I'm guessing maybe the LED light is a dud but hoping there's some way to rectify this without having to return it.
Thanks mate.

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.

Is this how the LED notification works when charging?

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

LED broken?

Anyone know how I can test the LED to see if it's broken or if it's just disabled from my recent flash to JB RC3?
Which led? The camera leds or the notification led? For the camera download a flashlight app. If it is the notification led then turn off phone and plug it in. If I am not mistaken the rom doesn't control that led when the phone is switched off. Or you can backup your current rom and install another.

Hm, good point. Didn't think to check while it was plugged in. The notification LED does work while it is plugged in. But again, it doesn't turn on for any message notifications (text, email, calendar, etc).

Anyone have any suggestions?

Try Pons Cm10

I believe there is a setting for the led, at least there is in cm10. Make sure that it is enabled or toggle it off and on and see if it works then.

when you are in well lighted room, led is brighter, when you are in dark room- led is less bright. Same technique as for auto brightness
But that led is constantly on Strange
Is that not the proximity sensor? I'm guessing it uses some forms of IR for detection so will always be on. .. is normal, don't worry
I just wanna confirm that do everybody has git that or is that only me with that ?
Proximity sensor. Disable 'quick glance' and it won't stay on all the time.

Is it true that the notification led becomes brighter with more room lite and dimmer in darker rooms?

Well yes, post #2 just mentioned that.

LED brightness

I'm stock rooted. I've noticed that my red charge light randomly gets dimmer until I wake the phone. I put it back to sleep and it's normal. Has anyone else seen this.

If your in a bright area the led will be brighter and vice versa, I believe it uses 1 of the sensors to detect how bright it is.

I guess I thought it was a problem with my phone, but I shined a flash light on and off at the light sensor and the charge light changed with it. Thanks for the input.
