LED notification issue - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just got my g4 and for some apps like kik I am not getting the led when I have a notification. Charging the phone shows the red led and messaging seems to work as well. Anyone have the same issue?

I got it working. I didn't realize you could tap the notification light setting and bring up another menu. In there I just checked the box that says use LED for downloaded apps

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.

Whatsapp and LED light

Hi
Does anybody know how to get the LED notification light to work through whatsapp? (I mean without using a 3rd party applicaiton). There is an option in whatsapp to have the LED blink, but I cant manage to get it to work. Any ideas?

What color did you select? Mine is set to green and works fine.
I selected green as well. Also tried a few other colours but still no luck.
Do do you have popup notifications enabled in whatsapp by any chance?

No. Disabled.
Is Whatsapp the only app that's having trouble controlling the LED of your gnex?
Activate and setup in app settings>notifications

@OP Are you sure the 'Pulse Notification' setting is checked to work?
(Settings > Display > Pulse Notification)
Can't think of anything else, my whatsapp led blinks green on notification just fine.
Yeah, pulse notification in the phones settings menu is enabled. I'm using light flow now to control my led which works fine. For some reason I just could not get whatsapp to blink the LED itself. So I went the 3rd party route.
Thanks for the help
hello, i'm using lightfow on AOKP black bean and generally it's work good
i noticed 've the same problem, no led notification from whatsapp...
i am using light flow lite for notifications (no whatsapp support), maybe it is causing this problem?

Whatsapp is supported in the full (paid for) version of light flow.

you can try reinstalling whatsapp or emailing them to report an issue
EDIT: Not sure if this matters but I have the Whatsapp version from the market (version 2.8.4771) but on their own website the version number available for android is Version 2.8.4923
http://www.whatsapp.com/android/
Not sure what's that all about but you could try both and see if one works.

Ah sorry, I misunderstood you. Yes thats something that I also thought of - whatsapp not having access to the LED because Lightflow has 'taken control' of the LED. However to test this theory, I uninstalled Light Flow, but still could not manage to get whatsapp to blink the LED by itself.

Why don't you use the LED Notification build in AOPK? Settings -> Rom Control -> LED Control

i did too...also reinstalled whatsapps without any luck
My Whatsapp doesn't blink the led either. It did a while ago I know for sure. It has just stopped functioning and I can't get it to work again. Not that important to me though.
Notification LED
Is it possible to use Light Flow Lite and have stock LED notifications work too?
ie. so whatsapp notification LED works too because both Light Flow and default LED settings are on

Light flow

Anybody know if it works? Thanks!

Seems to be working for me.
It works but my ambient display would flash on every 10 seconds or so when Light Flow was activated, notification or not.
Did this happen even if ambient notifications were disabled in system settings? I plan to use only the LED.
Had the same problem with ambient display. Turn it off and the problem disappear.

Nexus 5x notification led probably not functional

Today I received my 5x everything is good except pne thing, I cant see notification led blink yet. I suspect if it's broken. I have also enabled pulse led under sounds and notification.
Can anyone confirm if the led lights up while charging or not.
or how do I test the led?
There is no led notification for charging. Just test if you get the led light blinking when you got a missed message or not.

thanks for confirming. It now works for notifications after a restart for some weird reason.
You have to enable it. It doesn't come enabled. I find the notification light as well as ambient display not work 100% though

Use the app light flow from the play store to customize the led, I use it with no problems. But like stated above it comes off by default.

Notification LED customization app? LightFlow not working

Hi all~
Just got my 5T yesterday, but it seems that LightFlow is not working properly to control the notification LED.
Anyone figure out how to set it up to work or is there any other good alternative to customize the notification LED?

Have you not tried the built-in LED color customization? Just wondering.

It's still very similar to what I got from my OnePlus 3, not so customizable.
I prefer per app notification LED customization.
The in-built LED control is absolutely inferior compared with what you can achieve with an app like LightFlow, which allows you to customize the LED color and blinking pattern on an per-app basis. It is even possible to have the LED circle through different colors if there are multiple notifications.
@J12894 Can you describe what exactly does not work on our 5T?

The LED just wont work according to my setting. It will simply "eat" the notification, and don't show any LED.
The notification will show up and then disappear. And I am sure it is "eaten" by LightFlow as if I disable it, there is no such issue.
When I tried "All enabled LEDs Test", with some setting, it will either not show any LED or just show the blue color.
I'm using Light Manager Pro and it seems to be working correctly.
+1 for Light Manager
Im having no problems with light flow. I am using legacy mode, though
I want to use lightmanager too but when I test the notification it show "You must unlock screen to allow led notification" but my screen is unlock because I'm set light manager.
What is wrong.

Hit ok, then press the power button. It should take like two or three seconds for the color to show up in the notification LED. It's just to test what you set up.
Then unlock your screen again and set up the next one.
Thanks
I got BlinkerLED working without any problems.

I am using Light Manager, but I am unable to adjust the blinking speed. So it's always the same, no matter what I select.
Not that it's a huge issue, but would like to know if that's adjustable.

Speed cant be controlled on OnePlus devices as you can do it on Note 8 or S8, I dunno why its so weird though!
