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.

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....

You can disable the LED notification by going to Settings-->LED indicatior. Deselect the option which you don't want.
Edit:
Alternatively you can use light Flow

Disabling those option in settings does not stop the notifications from blinking the LED. Also it is confirmed by MANY PEOPLE that light flow is causing excessive battery drain on the GS3

Then what to do ?any other way?

[Q] Any way to disable email LED notification w/o disabling all?

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.

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.

Have a question about my S3

Is there any way to speed up the led notification light on it or an app that will do that for me? The period between blinks takes too long! Thanks guys.

Try lightflow or light manager

Light flow is great but it's not very stable. If your phone is rooted a lot of rooms have the Led feature built right into the rom to change colours for certain notifications and the speed at which they blink. Just use light flow if your not rooted
