Hi all,
Been looking around and have had trouble finding what I'm looking for.
Does anyone know of a way to triggered the notification LED on the Pixel 2 XL when the camera is active?
E.g. When I open Google Duo and the front facing camera turns on, the LED turns on as a solid or blinking red.
Was thinking there might be a way to do this via Tasker or iftt.

At work today I was looking at the security footage on our DVR and when viewing the screen from the office where my phone is located my Tilt 2 is emitting what looks like infrared signals from around the led notification light. The light isn't blinking but when looking at the phone through the camera you can see three blinks a pause and then three blinks and it just keeps repeating. I think it is infrared because it looks a lot like when you hold a remote control to a camera and push a button(assuming you've tried that ) Do we have an infrared port on our tilt 2? I know my ipaq 6945 had one a few years back.
no you don't

No to be simple.
no. its not the IR that transfers data. but i believe it is the proximity sensor. i dont think it would be the light sensor cus if u think about it. proximity sensor:see IR light: screen on. no IR light visible:screen on. thats just my .02 correct me if im wrong
Hi all and happy holidays
So I just bought my DEFY... my first ever touch and smartphone and I have Skype installed. It seems every time I sign in this faint red light comes on, it's located just on the left of the earpiece.
Anyone has any idea what it's for? this is not mentioned in the user manual :/
I wouldnt worry too much about it, I have it aswell, I have a feeling its a faint IR beam for proximity sensor (to turn off the screen when the phone is in use)
had a look in motorola forums as well, it does seem to be the proximity sensor after all...
PS can't post outside links yet
There's a LED indicator on the Defy just aside the proximity sensor (on the left or earpiece).
This led can warn you when you receive an email, a SMS or for missed call.
Maybe skypa can handle the led and turn it red when you're signed on.
I saw pictures online and have read that this phone does have a LED Notification light. But my brand new Pixel 2 XL I just got from Google yesterday, doesn't seem to work ?
What's it called, like Blink Light something ? I found that in Settings, and it is enabled clicked on. But I don't see it light up when the phone's plugged in charging.
Go in SETTINGS
then APPS and NOTIFICATIONS
then NOTIFICATIONS
then turn on BLINK LIGHT
Yes I have it enabled, but does not light up when plugged in and charging

You'll need a third party app, such as light flow or light manager in order to have LED while charging.

google didn't enable it for charging for some weird reason. just notifications for apps
I use "light manager" and it works great.
I just tested out light manager and it does work great. I chose to try that over light flow as light manager has been updated much more recently and after Oreo came out, whereas light flow is pre-oreo updated. But yeah, it works well so far. Tested out charging lights as well as multiple notification lights - they pulse as set up and use the proper color assigned to them. Pretty nice.
Hi guys, so I'm using the RP1 for a bit while and while I'm using it I realized that my led notification light next to my selfie camera keep blinking red. Does anyone know what does it want to say and how to turn it off? Its kinda annoyed me for a while now. Thanks for the help!
Possibly battery saver mode

By any chance are you in battery save mode (red battery icon) mines doing it aswell and seams to be linked to that
I like to know if there's a way to utilize the camera ring around the front facing to flash whenever there's a notification. I came from a Samsung device and I'm used to having a green light flash whenever I have notifications. I know l on OOS11 whenever you first boot up the selfcam it'll flash a green circle around it but I don't know if that's standalone with the camera or part of the screen effect. In any case is there a modification to allow that? Thnaks.
