Arc LED Notification light.

I thought the Arc had a notification light on the Battery charging light but cannot find the settings in the menu & when i get a message via gmail, there is no light just a notification in the bar??? Does anyone else get a flashing light if so any idea where the settings are.
Cheers

Just did another test & the led light does flash. But when you press the power or home key (which displays the lock screen) the led stops flashing which is silly as you can easily press the home key in your pocket.
Is there anyway to leave the led light flashing until you swipe & unlock the phone, or to disable waking up the phone by pressing the home key.

i think Led always stop flashing after the screen comes on. This was also on my nexus. didn't com across something to keep it flashing while the screen comes on.
Anyways i don't like the led location, i never see it.

Agree Stupid place to put it, but at least it has one unlike LG & Samsung phones. hope it is possible to stop the phone from waking by pressing the home key though.

I want programmable notification lights like the X1 had.
My X1 still works, but it lacks any decent software to make it work well.

I love it! I ordered a PDAir case with a cutout for the light so I can see it witout taking it out of the case.

Anyone tried Light Flow app?
I hope we can use the lights of the buttons under the screen as notifications too

Would be very nice to have the option for the 2 lights in between the 3 front buttons to flash with notifications aswell.

This was exactly what i was thinking of, it would be great.

That would be BackLight Notification (BLN) it exists for samsung phones that doesn't have a LED.
But it needs a modified kernel to work. So we have to wait for SE to unlock the bootloader and someone to adapt the kernel for bln to work.

It's possible in a cyannogen mod rom under led setting... we'll have to wait for custom roms to use it that way..

At 3:00 Minutes.

has anyone found a way to make the 2 LED lights work for notifications?

Any news on this topic? Will it be possible without rooting the device?
Would be perfect if I can use the front-leds of the device for notifications.

Notification LED light does not work AT ALL, EVER!

My Verizon Galaxy Nexus does not seem to even include a notification light. Although I see and read about a notification bottom middle of the front of the phone. Mine simply does not work at all and never has. Anyone know of this issue and may offer advice? I have downloaded light flow lite and have had no success, also downloaded LED tester apps and it still doesn't work. Please help.

Have you turned on the notification light in settings? Settings > Display > Pulse Notification Light

Yes.

Play Store > Light Flow > Your welcome

I have already installed light flow. Still not notification LED ever. I have had test SMS sent over and over with no response from the LED. Pulse notification light set, light flow set ON in accessability. All software is set to turn the LED on, the light itself is just not lighting up..

PLEASE HELP
Is it possible Verizon my only option here?

As a test, download an app called "Galaxy Nexus Led" from the market
Enable it and then plug ur charger and turn ur screen off
I think the Nexus's led only works when the screen is off

Take it to VZW and request a new device for the LED not working. You're not the first person I've seen with the issue, and you probably won't be the last to have the problem either.

I've had the same LED-Error... but i solved it.
At first... I'm shure that your LED is not broken. Cause... it is a LED
Before you read the rest of my message, check if you REALY activate your LED in the PhoneSettings and in any app you've allowed to controll the LED. If you're using LightFlow don't forget to activate it in the "Device-Admin-Settings" of your Phone.
Now try a test...
If your LED is not working ... format your cache and dalvicCache partition ... afterwards, it MUST work.

Is your screen off when you're checking for the LED notifications? It tripped me up for a few days until I realized that the LEDs don't kick in until your screen is turned off.

Notification LED not working!

Hey guys
I own the micromax canvas A1 and I'm on stock ROM with unlocked BL and no root.. The first time I switched on my phone, I saw a green notification LED blinking.. And unfortunately, that was the last time I saw it blink! It doesn't blink for any sort of notifications.. I've tried using 3rd party apps like light manager and light flow but in vain.. Any solution for it?!..
Thanks in advance!

I also own micromax canvas a1 for last two months.. LED notifications are not working like other lower android version mobiles.. It is good that it shows notifications only when the screen is off. But very bad thing about the LED is multicolor is not there.. It had only green and red...
Check once after uninstalling light manager..
I had also installed light manager once.. But I removed it since it is of no use...

Xiaomi 10t Pro Led Notification isn't lighting up

Please I have Xiaomi with software (11) Miui 12.5.4, however, the led notification isn't lighting up even in charging.
So, there is a problem with my device, or does this software has it?

The setting Light up when charging is ON? Does led works for notifications?

Yes

I suppose that this is the stock rom with locked bootloader. If that's the case go to Updater app and tap several times on Miui 12 logo until you see Additional features are on and then you can use the option Choose upgrade package in the upper right corner. Download the 12.5.4 rom from official miui rom download site and reflash it using this method.
Good luck, zaqm!

Have exact same problem, even though led is turned on in settings. No LED at all, even when charging. Please let me know what you did to solve the problem. Did flashing help?
Latest European MIUI here 13.0.8.0

Check the Notification light in CIT Menu by tapping several times on kernel version.

Thank you! I did that, and if i push the "on" tab on cit it switches off after 2 seconds. The LED never turns on.

I find it really strange that the button for led switches off automatically, as if it were somehow blocked by the software. I am really clueless.
