Is anyone using Light Flow with the LG G4 to control the LED? If you are can you please list the step to get it working the way you want it.
Turn off all the led options in the phones settings except the bottom "downloaded apps" option.

It's the only way to get it to work. I had many emails with the dev in the last 24hours and you need to uncheck all options BUT "downloaded apps" in the stock notifications setting and it will work.
The other issue is that you might not be able to select "always on" as an option for the LED flash rate and actually have it stay on. So, instead, you have to set a custom time with say something like 50000,10 and then the LED will stop blinking. I have 2 notifications - charging and charged - when plugged in the LED would blink rapidly the colors I set no matter what I selected for LED flash rate time. Setting the custom length resolved that.

Thank you, if you find more information please share it with us in this thread.
battery charging always on LED was blinking for me, so I set it to custom blink, and then something like 99999999,0

Excellent, I'm glad it did.
I have it working very well now after toying with a lot of settings and doing a lot testing & debugging/logging with the dev.
What we did find out through the tests is that - at least on the USA version with Verizon - it will not notify you if you have a Voice Mail or Visual Voice Mail (I use) and that it turns out, LG made it's own "voice mail" app - whereas in the past Verizon had their own voice mail or visual voice mail app. So, his next release addresses this new LG Voice Mail specific app because the 2 we have on the Verizon phone ( "Voice Mail" and "Voicemail Notification Monitoring") will not trigger a Lightflow notification as they are new LG specific app.

Do you figured out with the DEV how to make the light steady specially when the phone is charging instead of setting a crazy custom value?

No. We did not try to address that further given the custom number value solves that - which is why that function even exists. So, I - and I am sure he - looks at that as a low priority issue as that method works. However, once the VM/VVM issue gets resolved, I will ask him if there is a way to see how to get that working so no custom value is needed and so "always on" does it's job of being "always on".

Right now it looks like the LED Notification on the One X is set at something like 5 minutes (it stops blinking after that). I presume this is a simple setting (maybe in build.prop - I'm no dev). Is there any app or hack that can make this longer? I don't always look at my phone every 5 mins or less and I like not turning on the screen to know if I have a notification.
there is a app in market - i think it called "blink". With this you can manualy setup all led-colour, blink-time and much more others.
Will that blink app works with extending htc one x notification led duration?
You can also do it with Tasker.
I didn't find the blinker.
Tasker is not working for me...
I don't believe that can't configure the led timeout...
Yes I would also like to try it. If you search "Blink" on google play online it's the first result. However that app only lets you configure the green led and I don't think the frequency change works. Also you can't change the orange led and it cannot find it.
Still searching...

unfortunatelly the led blink only five minutes in all applications...
I used to have LED me know app on my Desire Z, but it didn't work so good after the Android 2.3.3 update.
I'll follow this thread, I need that blinking light to stop only when I turn on the screen, otherwise it's pretty useless if you don't see the phone in the first 5 mins.

i absolutely agree with you. This is useless feature in this form.
I've found the application (with source code) which name of missed reminder.
https://launchpad.net/missed-reminder/+download
if you disable the factory led notications and you can enable this (except the gmail notification because is not working whith new gmail api...) it will works sms, mms and missed call notification without time limit.
i've tried repair the code that we can use gmail reminder but the new gmail api don't work with HTC sense 4.0 (but with CM9 works)
i'll try more... maybe
Thank You!!!!
Thank you man, i followed your advice on my HTC One X and now thanks to you the 5 minutes

You have to activate it in "Settings" - "Eingabehilfe" (I think its called "input" in system section menu beneath date & clock ).
Otherwise it won't work
Turn on Settings > accessibility > Light flow

can't seem to get light flow to work either, not even the test.
For anyone getting the voice notification for opening and closing folders, it seems to be a problem with the TouchWiz interface. I changed over to Go Launcher and no longer get the voice. Just went back to Touchiz for a test and the voice is back.
I have the same issue -
I have disabled LightFlow from accesibility - and now there is NO LED light and no nagging voice (while opening/closing the folder)
If i enable the LightFlow from accesibility - LED starts working and so does the nagging voice !!!
So for now we HAVE to use the lightflow with the painfully nagging voice !
Anyone has any solution to the problem ?
I just try with lightflow enabled in accessibility service and there is no nagging voice comming from my phone...
thanks, you guys are right. LightFLow does work. The only thing I didn't get to work right now are the two white LEDs at the bottom. (I could use those with LightFlow on my Defy without BLN-mod)
But that isn't that important as the Notification LED is quite noticable
Solution to "the folder is open"
I found a temporary solution to the nagging voice.
Disable Samsung TTS and Google Text-To-Speech engine.
this will disable text to speech in all apps that use one of these two, so if your using an application that uses one of those, your out of luck.
I tested S voice and it appears to not use any of them.
So I can't stand this 9 second wait in between blinks so I installed xposed framework and the LED control module.
I cannot get this working correctly? Anybody have this working successfully?
If enable per say the messaging one. When I get a message it does not work. If I turn the screen on, then back off, it will work...but obviously that isn't right.
Any thoughts/suggestions? Thanks everyone!

Well I finally figured it out. In the phones standard notification settings, every option needs to be checked. I had unchecked incoming calls and downloaded apps. So once I checked every option in there it is now working! Yay! Not sure why but that fixed it
Are you running the standard version only or unlocked version?
I could only get the messaging app to correctly show LED notification, i couldn't get the phone app to display LED for missed call. Could you?

Since our AOD notifications light comes only once and it's barely visible, I've decided to find some replacement for it...
I tried a few AOD apps from Play Store but the phone never goes in deep sleep with them,except for this one :good:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.newgen.edgelighting
It illuminates the edges of the screen when a notification appears, it's colorful, goes around the sreen,very visible...you can change its duration,thickness...there's a few more settings there but only in the premium version...
I think you'll like it,check it out
Here's a gif example...
I tried it but couldn't make it work, it doesn't light up the screen, what settings do i have to enable/disable to make it work? I have given all the required permissions.

Nevermind, I managed to make it work. Thanks

After you give all permissions through the app, go to settings/apps/permissions/other permissions,find True Edge and give the permissions again for Modify system settings and Show on lock screen...

Turn on MIUI optimisation /Settings -> Additional settings -> Developer options - deep down below/ should be turned ON, active.
Otherwise True Edge doesn`t work - no matter of permissions given.

Hi,
I installed this, because the little led on front camera is just a joke.
The app works fine for all notifications that do not turn screen on, so it works well for email or message-app.
But if a notification turns the screen on, this app does not work, so I get no lighting from whatsapp or missed calls that both turn on the screen for a moment.
Does someone have any idea how to solve this. I tried to disable screen on in whatsapp but had no success. It still goes on every time a get a message there. I disabled popup-message in app-setting with no effect.
I am on xiaomi.eu rom miui 11.04.

Unfortunately there is no option for this in WA. It has just an option for LED but this has no effect on display.
May there be a possibility to revoke some authorisation for this in Miui? I did not find one.
So do you get edge notification for missed calls or do you have the same problem than me there?

I installed Miui 11.1 from xiaomi.eu today. With this version Always-On-Display got some improvements.
In fact I think I do not need any other notification app now.
In AOD I set a custom layout and used a black photo as background and set the switch to show notifications. So I get only an little line with time and date. Besides I set "light display when new notification arrives".
Now, when a message arrives the display switches on. I can see incoming message on lockscreen without touching the phone. Then the display switches off and AOD shows an icon from messaging app (see attached picture). This stays there until I unlock the phone.
This is perfect for me, I do not need any additional apps for this any more.
Only if phone is in a dark room, AOD switches off. That is not perfect because you do not see waiting messages then. But when you then lighten the room, AOD comes back. I can live with that.

Is it possible to receive Viber notification on this updated Always-on-display?
Couldn't find a setting to make "Always On" show me a signal on screen for missed calls or messages.
Anyone found a solution for that?
This is my only issue with this great phone. I thought it was a fault at first. I get one animation then the 10 sec AOD or I have to keep the AOD on all the time.
I have no idea why there is no option to keep the AOD going until you acknowledge/read the notification. I really hope it’s an oversight that will be fixed with an update.
Same here, got the 10s AOD and I was hoping I would get the pulse animation after a missed call... but nope. :/

I should have also said you need to select the apps you want a notification from and separately enable missed call notification in settings.

I enabled the constant AOD a few days ago and I think there must have been something else going on during my initial testing because the battery only drops 2% per hour now. I’m using the first simple clock option (red) and thankfully it moves position after a few min. An LED would have been nice, but totally happy with the AOD now.
NotifyBuddy was using the same battery as full on gaming for some reason :/
