LED light becomes dimmer? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone notice that the LED light, when flashing with a new notification becomes a little dimmer after a while? It's only on the same notification. If I check my msg, and another one comes in, for the first few minutes it's pretty bright but then again it gets dimmer with time.
Anyone else notice that?

Tilt 2 LED - Just network signal?

Hello,
I just got a touch pro2 lastweek and I am beating my head trying to figure out what the deal is with the status notification LEDs
I see one to the LEFT of the earpiece/speaker that flashes green every few seconds and then just stops - all the flashing stops. I'm thinking the bliking stops when the phone goes to sleep. So i press the power to wake the phone - but the flashing doesn't come back. I was thinking this is the network/signal indicator but doesn't seem that way.
I see another that's to the RIGHT of the earpiece/speaker that doesn't go on at all.
So no way to tell if the phone is on wifi network or if bluetooth is on (without obviously waking the phone up and checking on screen). I'm looking for a way to see status without touching the phone - like my old HTC TyTn (rest in peace!)
It turns red when you charge you're phone.
It turns green when you are fully charged (with the charger still in)
It blinks green when you have a new message/e-mail/missed call.
It blinks red when you're batterie is almost empty.
That are the basics
thanks! that's about what i seemed to have gathered too... what about that fake light like thing to the right of speaker? never lights up?
and no bluetooth/wan notification ten, right?

thats the light sensor for the screen
adjusts brightness depending on how much light is hitting the phone
Below is a description of the LED lights straight from the manual that came with my Tilt2.
* The Notification LED shows a:
Flashing green light when there are new SMS, MMS or email messages, missed calls, or reminders.
Solid green light when the device is connected to the power adapter or a computer and the battery is fully charged.
Solid amber light when the battery is being charged.
Flashing amber light when the remaining battery level reaches below 10%.

That's pretty much exactly it. There is a program floating around that allows you to change the light and customize the reason it flashes, but I think it's just fine the way it is .
it also flashed green then the red light really quick when its overheating :O
thanks for the quick replies folks.
I saw that in the manual too - but i never go by the manuals! i can't count how many times my manuals have been wrong about a particular function.
it's a disappointment since the older Tytn was much more friendly about the notifications. but i'll deal with it.
as far as that being a light sensor - i think it makes sense. I'll try trick it to see what I notice. Then I'm guessing it's the proximity sensor that's around the HTC logo? I think I was in the sun when I saw it but there's some sort of sensor around there. I figured that's the light sensor. perhaps not.
Thanks again!

how to make LED brighter?

is there anyway to make the droid inc LED for notifications brighter?
i just upgrade from the Eris, im on the CM7 rom, and theres a setting to change the color of the led, and when you test the notification the LED is bright!!! but then after when you recivece a text its back to the dime LED you can barely see.
Is your LED perhaps defective? My led is always bright enough for my taste. In fact it is sometimes too bright so I turned it off.
weird thats why i was wondering, it really bright if i just "test the notification"
Just a suggestion. Try another kernel and see what happens.

Anyway to get the LED notification light to blink faster?

It seems to blink insanely slow, like every 8 seconds. That's not fast enough to catch if there's a notification just peeking.
I'm trying out NoLED but it doesn't always seem to work, sometimes it'll show up and sometimes it won't.
Download the application called Light Flow, set the notification color as white, and choose the fastest blink rate. The color will still be red but you'll get a nice fast blink rate.
hmm... does everybodys light blink?
mine stays solid.

Are you using Handcent? I read something about Handcent causing this phone's notification light to stay solid.
light flow with white setting blinks on mine

Dim LED notification light?

My notification light is demonstrating strange behavior. When the screen is on, the light is fine. After the screen has been off for a few minutes, the notification light dims out to about half its normal brightness. If I turn the screen on, the brightness is restored.
I've looked through the settings and don't see anything to control this. Is anyone else having this problem? It's pretty minor, but it makes it harder to notice in day/light.

Face recognition ir light

Are you suppose to see an small blinking light when using face recognition(ir light)?
When i first got the phone i think i remembering seeing an blinking light but im not seeing it anymore.
Also its not working in complete darkness, but the light from the screen itself when turned manually brighter than auto is enough.
