Light flow notification led stays on after SMS - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Even after clearing the text message, light flow keeps the led on after I turn the screen off. Other notifications do the same also. Anyone else have this issue? I'm using the latest light flow.

LED continues to flash on sleep mode, Light Flow installed?

I have light flow, and when my screen shuts off, the LED light keeps blinking (white.) Any idea how to make this stop?

Well... my solution was to uninstall it.
Basically I found that while Light Flow was pretty neat, I was getting quite a few random notifications (i.e. LED flashing but no notifications in the bar) that would only stop after rebooting.
Eventually I got fed up with it and removed the app. Shame.

Hey, I would try clearing the apps data or a reinstall to see if that fixes it. I am using it the past two months and never had an issue. Good luck.
Check your lightflow notification settings and see which notification is set to flash white. If it's SMS or email, make sure that you don't just clear the notifications by just swiping it off the drop down menu but actually go into the apps and mark them as read. Otherwise lightflow will still detect them as unread and notify you.
If none of the notifications are set to flash white then you might have not set lightflow up properly. Go to your accessibility settings and make sure that lightflow is enabled. If that doesn't fix it uninstall and reinstall the app.

Never had any issues with Light Flow, but don't use sleep mode as an LED blinking when on charge isn't going to wake me up (AudioGuru mutes sound on sleep profile, mind)
Ultimately if you're having issues get in touch with the developer as only they can fix the issue
Disable the notifications for anything that is set to use the White color. It should solve the problem. You most likely have the notification set to only clear when you enter the application. I personally prefer to clear it when my screen turns on because if my screen has turned on, then I have already "checked" the notification and don't need that light continuously flashing.
Phantom notifications has long been an android problem. Its not light flow specific

[Q] question about notification LED and lightflow

i have installed the lightflow app to get more control of the notification LED but i noticed that after installing it the notification for whatsapp doesn't light up anymore. do you guys know how i would go about fixing or correcting this or is this a known issue.
also i have another question about having two notifications and how the LED reacts. Let's say I have a text come in (white LED), the phone will start blinking the white LED. Now, I don't wake the phone up and just let it sit there. Then an email (green LED) comes in. What is the LED supposed to do. from what I've seen so far, the phone just continues to blink the white LED. I thought it would blink both colors. is this normal? or what would be a fix for this?
thanks guys

I have the free version of lightflow and if I get a text (green for me) and then an email (yellow for me) It blinks a few times green, then a few times yellow, then green, then yellow. I've never tested with more than two colors/items.
As for the app "whatsapp",the app lightflow only supports "whatsapp" with the full version of light flow, I bet by turning on accessibility for light flow(free), it overrides the android defaults, hence nothing the app doesn't won't show. (Not positive about that)
You probably need the paid version.

Go SMS w/ notification LED

Has anyone been able to get their phones to have a blinking LED notification while using Go SMS pro...I enabled all the notification settings, but the LED only blinks when the screen turns on after first receiving a text message. After the screen times out, the blinking LED stops completely.
I was using handcent before and LED notification was working fine, but I was wondering if anyone figured out how to get it to work with Go SMS

I have mine setup where the screen doesn't turn on when I get a text, but it blinks like it should. When i test it, I have to turn the screen off to see the LED is working. That app has a TON of settings so I'm thinking there is something in there you can set on how long it will blink for.
Make sure the led color is set to blue. That may be it.

Does your blinking LED work, even with the screen set to turn on, unlock, and show the sms popup notification...I tried the suggestion about not having the screen turn on and just have the LED blink...that seems to work, but I was wondering if any one has figured out the right combination of settings that allows there to be a popup screen + LED notifications once the screen times out
Has anyone figured this out? I am having the same issue.
If someone figures out the exact problem the OP is having, please update and let us know. I have the same issue. PM me or something too. I'm using Xperia TX.
go sms led issue
hey there! hoping you can add some input to my quest for solving my problem.
problem is this:
i get a new message, turn the screen on, read the pop up, reply. the tesla unread app recognizes that i've seen the message and the unread message count goes away, yet the green LED keeps blinking as if i haven't seen anything. to stop the LED from notifying me about the message i just replied to, i swipe down the notifications tab and swipe it back up. then the LED stops blinking. very strange to me.
FIXED. settings needed to be changed on my phone.. not go sms app.
I just installed a new LED app called LEDBlinker Pro on my SIII (SGH-T999). It's required that the screen NOT turn on in order for the LED to blink. Despite me turning off of the "screen on" option under the app's (advanced) settings, the problem is GO SMS Pro continues to turn on the screen whenever there're incoming text messages. Thus no LED notification for me
I sent the GO Dev Team a message, but I was hoping someone else on here knows a fix. I really want to be able to use my new LED app.
Thanks in advance!
*Strangely, the LED notifications were working fine earlier this week, but then this suddenly occurred and I did not update GO SMS Pro or install any other apps recently.

Light flow makes led after sms stay on

Even after clearing the text message, light flow keeps the led on after I turn the screen off. I've seen this on other types of notifications as well. Anyone else have this issue? I'm using the latest light flow.

Have the same problem. Uninstalled until they get the accessibility settings fixed. Waiting on samsung...

LED notification light (Solved)

Hi guys,
So this has been driving me nuts.
The notification blink light is turned on in Settings > Apps & Notifications > Notifications. However, I've never seen the LED actually turn on during normal usage. Not during charging, nor when charged, nor when I have any kind of notification active (emails, texts etc etc).
I suspected the actual LED component might be broken, so I downloaded Light Flow and ran some tests. Yes, the LED works and will display in any colour during Light Flow tests. However when I go back to just using the phone normally, nothing. The LED never turns on. I'm on 8.1. Completely stock. No root.
Any clue why this is happening? I'd appreciate any help or ideas whatsoever.
Thanks!
Ben.

My LED works too at least when I test it. However it does not work when enabled. Seems like google disabled it on purpose because of the on screen notifications.

Confirmed... that fixed it. Thanks.
