i too use lightflow i love it and you can change the pulse rate of the LED and much more!

Some apps can also configure the notification light autonomous. Like with whatsapp for instance you can chose a green (or any other color) light in the settings.

thanks for the fast help, the LightFlow tool works perfectly.

Notification App

Does anyone know of an app that will flash the LED next to the camera when a text or any other notifications arrive?

Light Flow or Light Manager

Thank you. Ill check them out!

I've never liked the LED, probably because my old Vibrant doesn't have one. I use "NoLed" (free in the Playstore) on that and on my SGS3. It is far more useful than just a flashing light. If you use it, be careful of the settings. You have to set it up right for your specific needs or you'll get battery drain.

LED Control (sort-of)

I am On paranoid 2.99 and i didnt like the way that the led would blink in Deep orange for low battery and Notification so i was trying a few LED control apps .. and Found:
Light Flow Lite - LED Control : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rageconsulting.android.lightflowlite&hl=en
this works Partially . i could set my SMS notifications to Green .. and this supports 3 Colors only on our device .. Dark Orange , orange (kinda yellow) and Green
just thought it will be useful for people to know ..

be careful when using such apps. it MIGHT screw your phone.

Yup ! .. just Make a NAND backup just to be safe ! I made a backup ! .... the app is working fine for me ! .

Yeah I had actually used this app in the past and the led goes out of control, especially if you set it to green/ and /or other colors..

i'm running aokp but i installed the app yesterday and found that this doesn't work at all. It can only change the color of the first flicker and still shows the led light even if you turn it off. useless.

I can change the colors of the LED from the source files - there is actually a Java file that controls the LED and it is commented -
This device has only 3 LED colors. Do not try to parse any other colors.

So basically we can't play with them even if we want to .

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.

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.

Z1C LED notification light very low

Hi to all, I have a little problem with my Z1C, the led notification light is very low, I compared the phone with other Z1C and the difference is really visible.
Is there any solution or possibility to edit to increase the power of the light
Thank's

Hey!
You can try with apps like Light Flow.
They have settings to adjust the brightness of the LED.
This however only works if its really a software issue. If the problem is a broken LED then it is a warranty issue.

If you phone is rooted, you can install gravity box and it has an option to set notification led frequency (by default it's 6000ms)

Thanks for the tip, now I try to hear the support from sony, if they can replace the LED under warranty, otherwise i will try your solution.
This would be the best solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2212944 but I think it's not made for kitkat..

you do not care the frequency, but I saw that the program can handle the intensity of the LED ... all the answers are welcome and I discovered a new program:good::good:

My bad I have read to fast. I read "slow".
But I'm glad somebody discovered something new

GravityBox? I don't see such an option, only on/off duration can be set.
