Nexus 5 Led doesn't work (PA 5.0-ALPHA2) - Paranoid Android Q&A

Hi everyone!
Today I've switched from CM11 to PA, and really like it.
But I've noticed, that the notification LED doesn't to anything (neither charging, nor any notifications).
Pulse Notification Light is turned ON, but whether its on and off the result is the same.
I've downloaded Light Flow to test the LED, but its still dark.
Can you help me out?
Thanks in advance:
Aaron

Did you change the kernel? It works fine on my kid's n5

Nope, but I've flashed Franco to fix it, still nothing..

Notification LED

Ive just noticed my notification LED isnt working, how do i make it work, i have got someone to text me with the screen off, still no led on silent, no led, on vibrate no led. what could be the issue
i had the same problem.
i knew the LED works because it lights up when i get an incoming call. but thats the only time it ever lights up. as soon as the call is missed it goes out, no pulsing light.
i downloaded an app called Light Flow (the free version) and works, as well as giving you much much control on the colour of the light and the different notifications it can be used on
Still cant get missed call led to flash even with light flow
any tips on setup ?
Pulse Notification Option in Settings, Display?? (Android settings that is ;-) )
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
yer its ticked, before and after installing light flow and still nothing
Is more settings for light flow im after, if people say it works for missed call ?

Light flow vs 4.3

After disabling notifications for light flow, the status bar icon is gone, but the LED doesnt work normally now. Normally i set to LED shinning colour when plugged in but now after i disabled the notification, the LED doesnt light up anymore. Anybody else having similar problems?
Im guessing its due to the app not being updated for 4.3 yet.
App runs just fine here.

Make sure Accessibility is on in setting. I missed that myself.
That seemed to fix it.

[Q] Notification light not working with MailDroid on AOSP ROMs

I have installed a few of different the CM10 based ROMs and noticed that the LED Notification light is not working correctly with MailDroid.
Things I have noticed:
Notification light seems to work with Gmail and all other programs just fine
Notification light does work when phone is plugged in, not sure why this is
Notification light works fine with Bonestock ROM
LED Notification is enabled in settings
I contacted the maildroid dev and he thinks it's a CM10 issue.
Wondering if anyone else has experienced this or has any suggestions to get the notification light working correctly with maildroid?
Bummer, I really like CM10 based ROMs and hoped someone might know the answer.

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.

Note 2 GT-N7100 LED notification light is always on (dim red). How to turn it off?

Hi everyone,
My note 2 LED notification light suddenly turned on after charging, and the color is dim red. I have tried turning off the device, but the light was still on. It only turns off when i remove the battery. The light also blinks normally when I receive missed calls and notifications.
My device is rooted, and I'm currently running AICP 12.1 UNOFFICIAL. I tried flashing other new and old roms, but it didn't work. I even used Odin and went back to the stock rom, but the problem remains. Could this be a hardware problem? Please help me.
Thank you.
