Without any 3rd party software, if notification setting and LED blink setting etc. are all enabled, do your G7 LED blink when receiving app notifications? Mine only blinks for a few apps but not others. The weird thing is that it doesn't even blink for the built-in email app when email is received.

I was recently going through the phone's settings menu, and in sound and display there is a section called pulse notification light which according to the description, pulses LED light repeatedly for new notifications. I have this checked to do this, but I have never seen the LED pulse for any notifications, whether it be incoming calls, sms, or email. I have checked and unchecked it, rebooted the phone, but to no avail I see no pulse notification.
Am I missing something here?
My phone is totally stock for the OS, and applications.
The notification LED light only blinks if the screen is off and if the notification LED light setting is enabled within their respective applications.
The screen is off, and I don't see any setting within the default messaging app, or the gmail app that says anything about LED notifications. I don't think that is very smart for a smartphone. I hate the phone vibrating while sitting on my desk, I would rather have the LED flashing to notify me of new messages, and/or email.
I'm sorry, there is no LED notification in the settings, bad memory LOL. The LED should work as long as Notifications is checked, although it may be defective, like blinking 5 times when you first receive an email or message, and then blinks sporadically afterwards. A fix is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11292197&postcount=4
It could very well be the case that your LED light is not working and you should go to a repair center to get it checked out.
When I receive an email on my Desire Z, the LED indicator (same one that glows orange when charging and green when full) will blink orange to notify that an email has been received. However, when I receive an SMS, the LED indicator does not blink, and only the little rim surrounding the trackpad will glow every 10 seconds or so.
Is there any way to get the LED indicator to blink when I receive an SMS the same way it does when an email is received?
Thanks for any assistance!
I've the same problem too... seems to be a default SMS application bug
Try GO SMS or Handcent SMS, both made notification led work for me...
Have you tried using "led me know"? You can get it for free in the market.

Yes i tried it but sometimes works and sometimes not, even if i enable the Desire compatibility mode...
Both Handcent and GO SMS works...
So the LED indicator (same that lights up when charging) will blink with GO SMS? I'll give that a try.
It is a bit silly that the LED indicator flashes for an email but not for a text message...
Missed Call is another free app on the Market, which lets you customize the LED notifications, like LED Me Know.
Chomp SMS is another SMS client (my personal choice) that is pretty nice, that also makes the LED blink when a message comes in.

I have Go SMS Pro installed and it doesn't work for me while a few days ago it actually worked with a nice bright blue led when I got a new text mesage. I already tried to disable, reboot and re-enable the led-notification, and also disabling the main settings of led blinking (for all different kinds of notification but it doesn't work.
Anyone who has a solution for this?
So I noticed my phone's LED glowing red the other day, and it turned out it was due to a Google+ notification. I thought it was cool that the app was going to start using an LED notification from now on by default, however I have since stopped receiving LED notifications, and this seems to correlate with when I uninstalled the Google I/O 2012 app.
Has anyone else noticed this? The Google I/O app caused the LED to glow a sort of light blue colour when it was reminding me about the keynotes, but I find it strange that it's affecting other apps' LED notifications. Has the G+ app always given a red LED notification? Anyone have any ideas about why this might happen? Re-installing the app seems to re-enable the G+ LED notifications.
Is it possible to set notification LED to blink for missed call on Micromax A1. Currently it blinks in Green colour for unread message. LED blinking stops after we press power button, and there is no blinking even if we dont unlock phone or dont read message. I want similar blinking if there is miss call.
I know it is possible with 3rd party apps, but I am not comfortable with those apps asking permission to access Contacts/Message/etc from phone.
Besides I also wanted to know how many LEDs are present in A1. Apart from Green colour for sms, I also see Red colour LED in ON state during calling. I guess it is different LED.
cmon being a Google user.. u shldnt worry about givn permsn. Android is all about open source , there's no place for privacy. notification works for msd call too. don't know wt u r sayn.

I know that there may be many apps which has access to phone which I may not be aware of
I have checked several times, Green LED notification only blinks for unread messages. For missed calls there is no LED notification.
Not only missed calls, But there is no proper use of LED indicator in this mobile. Battery charging, Low battery alert etc. I wish there could be an option for customization in Android L update.
After Lollipop update
I can now confirm Green Notification LED blinks for Missed Calls, unread Emails and SMS after Lollipop update
But there is no indication on LED during charging.
Earlier with Kitkat LED only blinked for new unread SMS.
I've been running LED Blinker Pro for about a year now. It allowed me to set the LED to different colors for texts, missed calls, upcoming appointments, and a host of other things (Signal messages, Facebook messages, low battery etc...) and a user selectable blink rate compared to stock.
Recently, possibly after updating to Pie, things with the LED have changed. Now, when I am charging the phone, the LED goes solid red. When the battery is full, the LED goes solid green. The LED blinks a slow blue when Bluetooth in on. Basically it's doing things I don't want it to do, and it overpowers my own app, rendering it mostly unusable. I uninstalled LED Blinker Pro to see if there was an issue with that app, but the new LED issues remain
I looked throughout the phone's settings, but I cannot find where these "new" LED notification settings are. I'd like to turn them off, and have everything controlled by the app I paid for. I did find a toggle under Settings>Apps & notifications>Notifications>Blink LED, but that turns the LED "off" so that there's no blinking at all, with both the "new" LED features and the paid app. But, I do not want the LED totally off, I just want to be able to control it like I have been able to do over the past year.
Is this new LED blinking function a function of PIE? Has anyone figured out how to change settings for it? Can it be disabled so that I can use my own app to control the LED?
