I'd like to have notification for missed calls or calendar events but for every email I get, cmon! My led is unfortunately constantly flashing due to email which renders it useless. I've set up handcent to flash green but I;d love to have more control over LED customizing. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks in advance.
Dave
Look into the Tasker app, it has amazing capabilities to customize your phone. If you find yourself asking "I wish my phone did/didn't do this/that"; then you probably could use Tasker.
Do you know if that app will in fact allow me to turn off led notification for email? hate to spend $7 to find out It wont.
Thanks
Dave
Why don't you just turn off notifications from the email app?

Id like to retain the notification email.
Light flow, lite manager or blink might provide the control you need to accomplish this
All are in the market and are either free or have a free version

Now i'm really baffled. I turned off all LED notifications in LED indicator under display and also all email notifications in the email app and it is still flashing blue while showing the email icon in the task bar when I get an email. ***Figured it out, had to go into my exchange settings and disable notfication there too. NO idea why it is in two spots. Oddly even if I have all LED notifications disabled I get a flashing blue LED whenever I get an email if notifications are enabled. Doesn't appear that any of these LED apps will override that.

What app are you referring to? You need to enable LED notifications in settings of most
I've been using the app, Light Flow. It's had a few hiccups but works great for the most part. Very customizable. It requires root to work I believe.

I was getting LED, Status bar, audible, and vibration notifications prior to installing Light Flow. The key is you have to enable quite a bit of it in each individual application such as Gmail and Messaging. At first I was wondering why nothing would vibrate the phone even though I had the phone set to vibrate. If you don't want to use Light Flow, go through the settings in each application and check the notification settings. Most likely something is disabled. I use Light Flow simply because I want to change the LED color for different app and contact notification.
Sorry if this is asked but how can we get customzied led control for the notification led?
Get light flow from the Market

on a more technical question, does anyone know where the sysfs files are that control the LED colors etc?

I would rather do this.
Have you seen how many options Lightflow give you to customize the notifications? I don't know why you would want to do this manually as Lightflow runs as a service....

I am having issues when i turn on and activated this app, the text to speech especially when i am browsing is turning itself on even the talkback features is off..
Anyway to disable this all together on touchwiz roms?

Not in one shot. You have to find settings for everything and turn off notifications LED if the option is provided. Sometimes you only get the notification toggle. So for each email you have to shut it off, for messaging, for games like wordfeud, FB, Twitter...and so on.

Level 9000: Poke around the source and neuter the driver that controls it.
Level nub: Check the many LED control apps to find one with a toggle that universally disables the LED notification.

I can't seem to get the BLN service to work. I've tried both BLN and NSTools and nothing seems to work. I also tried to flash the Hercules kernel to it thinking maybe it had an older version in the rom but still the same issue. Any suggestions great appreciated.
Thanks.

Have you tried BLN control from the playstore. I recommend the paid version, it has an option to blink.

It won't blink, unless its the paid version. If not, the backlights turn on with a notification, and stay on, till you check your message, or set a time limit.

Well that is what I'm trying to say. The backlights never turn on when I should have a notification...
OK I just got BLN Control Pro. When I test it it works. It only seems to notify on a missed call and not when I get an email. Any way to change this?
Am I the only one having issues with BLN and email or SMS notification lights?

Email should work, but if youre using the stock SMS app, it wont. That requires a tweak to the stock messaging apk. The free version of BLN worked for me just fine on JMT v9 when I was on it.
Working for me with the e-mail, but have to find a workaround because it wasn't working with the stock sms app. I D/L SMS Popup from the market. You gonna have to disable the notifications in your SMS APP and enable in SMS Popup, you can also enable or disable the popup notification if u want it or not... OR just change your SMS APP like Handcent SMS or GOsms, but i like the stock one and wanted to stick with it!!!
For your e-mails, is your notifications are enabled ???? you can also try third party app... I've read a lot about this BLN Mod and it's always a matters of screen turning on or not when notifications are coming.
I have notifications turned on for the status bar. When an email comes in I hear the sound and I get the notification... just no BLN. I'm going to backup and reflash JMT9 and see what it does on a clean slate.
Well just did a clean install and install BLN then setup my email and still the same issue. I'm at a loss at this point. This is a Microsoft Exchange email account that I'm setting up if it makes any difference.

What exactly is the problem? I'd be glad to test to see if it even exists, but have yet to notice anything.

I don't see a problem here. Just turn off notification solves the issue and no need to install anything

You silly. No one wants their screen light to come up when you get a notification. You want the notification led to go on when getting a notification. That is what the notification led is for.
The individual wants notification without their screen light turned on.
I don't know why some applications turn on the screen light some or all the time when getting a notification. I had a few apps turn on the screen light when getting a notification. But you may want to try out "Light Flow" in the Play Store. See if that helps.

If you read my post then you would know that I knew that. I was talking to the other person.
Note - Light Flow is not compatible with Note 2 right now, because you will have to disable S Pen Air View function. Sorry, my bad. My idea was to change the application's, that is causing this issue, behavior to only use LED Notification.
This is usually cause by an app that has a background process running to be notified when you do something like send & receive and SMS, MMS, etc... This is one of many reasons why I use AutoStarts application to manage background processes. This app most likely is an app that your carrier, Sprint, added to your Samsung Galaxy Note 2. These apps like this loves to have background processes being notified when you send or receive SMS and MMS. This is most likely the app/s that caused this issue of your screen light to light up for a moment. Stopping that background process is the best solution.
My question to you is: What did you change within those files that solved this problem?
My request to you is: Write to us what you changed within each of those files, with the name of each file, to solve this problem.
I have go-pro-sms .... and it has a setting to turn off the screen coming on .. Blahhhhhhhhhh
