Use LightFlow, the best one from many I tested. You can find it in Play Store...

Used Light Flow but it didn't worked well on my Xp M (ss). Although Light Manager - LED Settings, working perfectly. But I saw a LED strip lighting up in the article i provided link for, like on Xp U/S/P. So i was a bit curious.

LED strip is available only in Xperia S/U/P/SP as far as I know... Other Xperias has just a multicolored LED, like our Xperia M

XPERIA S light strip is...just a white light strip to assist with the three off screen touch buttons (menu, home,back) and does nothing with notifications.
The XPERIA S just has a small LED, whereas the XPERIA M has a wider notification light, but not width of the phone.
So the XPERIA M still has a bigger notification LED area than a lot of XPERIA phones.

Thnx for the link! Have the same question still no answer - I tried a few Xposed modules but with no luck Light manager's FAQ document says "Sony Xperia M - Only work when STAMINA mode is disabled" I guess that's the problem, cause I constantly use STAMINA mode. I'll try to play with illumination bar API, hope there's a solution.

Here's the Xposed module, which solves this problem.

(Q) LED notifications

Hey guys,
Despite the poor placement of the LED light on the Arc, is there any build.prop tweaks or apps ( compatible with ICS preferebly) that make the LED light work/persist for notifications? I have a feeling that it does work but then turns off as soon as the screen turns on but that is rather pointless ( not sure about this)
Thank you guys.
That's how Google intend it to be since 2.1. Unfortunately I haven't seen or come up with any solutions yet..

Illumination Led Control Xperia ZL

Originally for Xperia S/P and U but its working also on our Xperia ZL. Just use the settings for Xperia U to get the notification led lights in different colors.

Thanks to Rundgong for this app.

Are there any users which use Illumination Bar Notification?
It's not working here anymore... kinda weird, anybody has got the idea?
As example... An email... I enable the colour red, 0,5 seconds...
And when I get an email the light blinks white, 3,0 seconds or something like that...
In the emailapp the notification light is turned on... I want to select own colours
and not with any notification the same original white led notification... Any ideas?

You got to choose the configuration for the Xperia U man. It is working good here.

Has anyone tried out, which one drains more battery (illumination control vs. light flow)?

LED Notification brightness !

Hi all
I'd be interested to know if anyone else finds the led notification light on our ZL is just not bright enough, I really struggle to see it flashing when out in direct daylight especially on a sunny day. I use my ZL as a business phone and rely quite heavily on the notification led for emails and sms notifications when quickly glancing at the phone in meetings and out on site visits, on numerous occasions now I have not responded to emails and sms as quick as I would have liked due to not noticing the led flashing when out in sunlight.. I've done a bit of digging about on forums and Google but cant find any suggestions on a way to adjust the XZL led brightness, there is a mod for Xperia 2011 devices which I've tried but unfortunately this doesn't work on Sony's latest devices,I've searched the system files and build.prop but cant find any reference to the led brightness.
So with this said I would be grateful to find out if anybody knows where the led control files in the system files are located or better still a mod that can adjust the brightness.
I'm using Illumination Bar Notification from playstore. You can adjust colours and brightness, but I don't think you can make the light brighter with this app.

LED Notifications- which program?

Hello!
I am looking for a program for LED notifications. Which program allows to the LED lights all the time (when the screen is on). I tried Ilumination Bar(softkey always on), but the LED is blinking.
Best regards and thank you in advance for your help!
And, your question is?

LED is blinks
It's not if you choose the option (light tab)->speed->always on
I did it, but LED blinks
Custom API
I think the notification LED isn't implemented using the standard android API. There is an API on the Sony Developers website called light effects. Hopefully, custom roms made for this phone will use the standard implementation method. For now on stock rom, someone would have to write an app to do it. I might ask the publisher of lightflow to add the lighteffects API.
GOOD NEWS!!
I have contacted the developer of lightflow. The developer says they will add illumination bar(the proper name what I thought was called sony light effects) support.
Great!!! I hope they make it soon.
Wait no longer

I tried it today. It works!!! Make sure to go into settings>display>light effects. Leave notifications on, but set all colours to off.
I'm in UK. On f.w 15.1.c.1.17
How can I set to the LED is always on- when I use a screen?

AFAIK, It's a limitation of stock rom. LED can only be controlled on lock screen and screen off. If you select always on, it may flicker slightly.

Stamina Mode and Light Manager?

Hello Friends,
Can you tell me, how its possible to activate stamina mode with working led notification like light manager?
On every test with light manager or other apps like this, the led flashes two times in tbe right color, but nothing more.
On my other phone (xperia go) we have an other superstamina.apk and it works.
Any solutions for Xperia z1c?
Regards, Chris
