the developer has claimed the latest version on the play store is working for rooted phones, but I still am not having the best of success. I thought I'd start a thread and see how others are fairing.
The newest version has some improvement; being able to select different colors for different notifications and actually getting them to go off when you've pulled down the notification bar. however, it doesn't blink for me at all. When i get a text or email the corresponding light is a steady constant light if the screen is asleep. If you wake it up the light either disappears or only lights up very infrequently.
I've read some posts before the latest versions came out that some users had success getting it to work by actually turning Accessibility off. This seems to turn off the entire app for me.
anyone having better luck?
I have had the current version working correctly both on a stock TW rom, and now on CM10. The flashing lights haven't been implemented yet, however he is working on it.
The only thing I had to do on the Samsung TW rom was disable Samsung TTS in the manage apps settings. Once I set it to S3 root mode, everything worked perfectly.
I suggest you follow his blog here:http://www.folioflow.com/ff/page/website/lightflow/pageId/1826

I have done all that including following the developers blog. I have accessibility on, only have the light flow notifications turned on, allowed SU access to light flow app, and have tinkered around with it all weekend but it still isn't working correctly. It works fine when the screen is on, but when the screen is off it gives a solid light.
Its not supposed to blink get, that's why I linked you to his blog.

A blinking light will kill the battery or at least use more juice. Dev did say he is looking into that feature tho
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Developer advises blinking uses more battery than solid notification. Go figure.
Since I installed Light Flow, whenever the screen is off the LED glows a faint green. First I disabled Light Flow and the led still glows green. I unchecked it under Accessibility and rebooted, still green. Just had to uninstall and reboot to get it to stop. Anyone else have this issue? Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere?

I had that issue when I restored from an old version of light flow. The newest version that I installed straight from the Play Store works fine.
I believe to get other colors other than green, you need to be rooted and go into the app settings and check "S3 root mode" or whatever its called...
Works perfect for me.
EDIT: I think the updated app (as of today) should work whether your rooted or not.
The update version today also supports blinking in adjustable intervals.

I would agree with that almost fully except it's a pain setting up different notification sounds between e-mail and sms/mms. It's also nice to be able to have it make notifications at intervals from missed calls/sms and the light to go away eventually if you want.
But I do have to say, I'm on CM10 - Paranoid Android ROM(latest build) and light flow is working like a charm for me right now. Looks like the bugs have been worked out for the most part.
Hi guys.. I have an international S3 and since a recent Lightflow update, I regularly get lightflow causing wakelock for hours. even with no outstanding notifications. I've uninstalled, re-installed - same problem.
Happened 3 times this week. reboot fixes it.

I am really really happy that the galaxy nexus has a notification light. That was the thing preventing me from moving on from my nexus one.
Of course I wish Google would make the notification light more customizable because as it stands its really worthless by default.
I'm using light flow to help but its not perfect. Maybe its just not ready for ics yet or I'm doing something wrong but these r the problems I'm encountering:
In Google talk when I type a message and the screen goes off, the notification light comes on as if the person has responded but its being triggered by my own message. The only way I've been able to help with this is to hit menu>end chat after typing my message.
The other issue is with Google voice. I don't see a notification light up for it. Do any of you know if the paid version of the app will do it for Google voice?
Thirdly it doesn't seem to stop the sounds from the notifications in the night time mode...it turns off the light, but even though in that option I have it set to do the sound as well, it doesn't do it. I had to go into the sound settings and just turn off the notification sound (which actually didn't help, I had to go into each apps settings and turn it off there).

I was having same problems - light won`t stop flashing even after I checked received sms or missed phone call. Had to uninstall app But once its fixed, I will be first to install it - fantastic!
Anyone else know if there's any other app that can configure the lights?
I've bought a few over the years for my other devices but haven't tried any for Galaxy Nexus yet.
I've noticed though in Google Voice, when I get a text, the light is green.
I used light flow for a bit. but killed at after a day or so. Its still a little buggy in ICS as others have said
i had the proble with the light not turning off too. I had to turn off the notification light for no signal and low battery, and its been perfect since then.
I guess knock on wood, but I have never had a problem with the light staying on with Lightflow paid version.. I feel like if you swipe to dismiss a text message, it will stay on, but if you just open the Messaging app, it will stop blinking. Also, if you use the "x" on the notifications window, it will stop blinking without opening Messaging.
Edit:
With regards to the above post, I have never had the "no signal" light on, but I do have "low battery" and it works fine.
Strange, my problem is actually the opposite to you guys. With light flow my notifications clear just fine, every time. However, it seems like about half the time it refuses to notify me at all. Drains a bit of battery too.

I'm working on improvements for ICS. There's a few things I'm working on for a release in the next few days.
Firstly, at the moment gtalk just doesn't work correctly for identifying notifications due to changes in the gtalk app. I've pretty much rewritten the notification detection for gtalk now and it seems to be working fine in the test builds.
There's a bug I've fixed where for some people the app won't work after a reboot.
As for swiping away notificatons, that won't clear them. It's really frustrating that the accessibility service is so limited in this regard and won't report anything useful back on what's happened. Because of this, I'm adding a new option to clear notifications additionally when you pull down the notification bar as this is something I've managed to hook into. Therefore it'll clear when you either open the app, or pull the notification bar down (but will then be off even if you don't actually view the notification)
I've had a few crash reports (thanks to those who send them in) that I've been trying to fix also, but some of these can take a few iterations to completely stop.
As for battery use, after the next market release adding the above, I'm going to try and add a new feature to just display the most recent notification that's come in. Although it wouldn't be my personal choice, it'll use less battery than the notifications where it's changing in succession around all the notification colors.
---------- Post added at 01:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:12 PM ----------
As for the sounds not stopping, have you set the native app to "silent" for it's notifications. Just want to see if it could actually be the main app that's triggering the sound.
---------- Post added at 01:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 PM ----------
The paid version of the app also supports google voice.
I'm having a really bad issue where once the screen is off, I can't get it to turn back on. The only way to get it on is to reboot the phone via ADB. Then, once I turn it off, it stays off again. If I press the power button SOMETIMES it will flash my lock screen for a 10th of a second, but then turn back on. This started when I installed the app. I was able to test the LED colors, and it did that during the test, too. Hopefully it's an easy fix!

i got this problem too, turn off foreground, uninstall, install, turn off foreground, turn on. You should be good to go then. App is a bit buggy, but better than what google is currently offering us.
No dice
The good news though is that I can get my phone to work again by entering an ADB shell, entering "su", running a "ps" to list the running processes, then running "kill (proc number here)" to end the process, allowing me to turn my screen back on.
EDIT: Ok, so after killing the process using the method listed above, I re-entered the app, turned the "run in foreground" off, then turned it back on, then rebooted. Phone seems to be ok now.

You can also pull the battery if you want. There are several of us that have had this issue with light flow. The developer has stated that he is working on a fix. I would suggest removing the app until there is a confirmed solution.

Yea, battery pull works too, but considering how finicky the battery cover of the GN is, plus the case i have, it's easier to adb reboot or kill the process.
See my above edit, though. I seem to have gotten it to work.

I stand corrected; app description says root is not needed. I was thinking of another app I saw that does similar functions that requires root.
The new message notification LED on my (new) LTE Gnex only flashes once or twice, just when the phone boots up. Doesn't flash when a new message arrives. I've tried disabling it, and re-enabling it in settings, but it just does not work. This does not seem normal, and I'm wondering if I need to return the phone, which I really don't want to do. I've already unlocked the bootloader and rooted, but still running the stock ROM.

Have you tried Light Flow from the Market?
This has worked with the stock ROM.
I personally use Trackball Alert Pro - MoDaCo ROM has suppport for this.
Just tried calling myself, and hung up. The LED isn't lighting up. But I have seen it blink for emails at least. Hmm.. maybe try light flow.

Have not tried any 3rd party apps, yet. First I wanted to know if there was a problem with my phone, or if this is "just" a bug. If others have this same problem, then I'll try a 3rd party solution. Thanks for the feedback.
Tried the same thing, called myself and sent messages with no led notification. Thought my led was broken but then installed light flow and it worked no problems.
Not sure how it was supposed to work stock but could not get it to work at all without a 3rd party app.
Without the app, the only option I could fight was pulse notifications which I tried turning on and rebooting but it never seemed to work.

Just tried light flow. When I tried the "test LED" function, my phone would no wake from sleep. Also got sleep of death when I got an email. Had to do a battery pull. Any solution for this?
I looked at Trackball Alert and it requires Paul's ROM, which I'm not ready to try (yet).
I noticed it doesn't light up when it's charging either. Is this normal behavior?
From what I've seen so far the stock light is a hit and miss for me. Only time will tell how they will improve this.

Well its not your phone....The light stock is stupid I have no idea why you would include a light that only flashes random times and only in white.....

Yep. Probably don't have/use most apps that support it for me to notice it all the time.
I've been having the same trouble. Haven't seen the light in days.
I went back and revisited some of my settings. I had turned on the setting for the screen to "stay awake while charging." I unchecked it, and now my light is working again.
Now, it only ever comes on when the screen is off to begin with. It won't come on if the notification happens while it's already on.
But at least the light comes on when the screen is off now!
(And I really wish the blink rate was higher. You can look at it for several seconds between blinks, and think there's nothing and look away.)
So the change I made to the settings seems to have fixed the light issue. I have been properly getting notifications since I turned off the keep awake. Seems like an easy enough to fix bug as long as they know about it.
But now what I want is a faster blink rate. One second on out of every 6 or 7 seconds is easy to miss.
For those with the Verizon Galaxy Nexus, how many different color notifications are there for the LED when you use Light Flow?
17 colours to choose from on mine, it seems.

But will the phone display all those 17 or only say 4?
The Nexus has a RGB LED so any of the 17 colors can be mixed without a problem.
Why don't you try it by yourself? Lazy?
Despite that I have 19 colors to choose from on my GSM Nexus with Light Flow (paid).
Just a quick warning from my experience with Light Flow lite.
I installed the free version and it worked fine - I think I used 10 different colors and most of the time the worked well (sometimes the light would stay on when the notification was cleared).
However, I was having battery life issues so I uninstalled the application.
This actually GREATLY improved my battery life - but now my led is broken. It will only flash white, and it doesn't work for all events that it did before I used LFL. I've done a factory reset and a battery pull and the led will not go back to green.
I've emailed the developer and hope I'll get some help. It's a little hard for me to understand how this could happen and I hope I can fix it.
Just a word of caution to anyone considering using this app.

I don't think mine has ever flashed green? The stock notification for mail + sms is white, and tweetdeck is yellow... not seen anything else?
I too uninstalled Liteflow, because I found it frequently flashed forever until I rebooted when there were no notifications.
On the Nexus one, CM7 had a slider control for colors. You could create hundreds of different shades.
I think the Galaxy Nexus is the same. At this point we're only limited by software. RootzBoat rom had a LED color control built right into the general settings menu, but only had a few color selections. I used blue and I liked it alot. I don't think it allowed you to change it PER APP, but just the general color for all. Still cool to mess with again.
3rd party programs require to be run in the background as an app or service, but require constant monitoring. Kernel level control is best, but we'll have to wait for CM9 for that.

Ok then - maybe I've lost my mind! I thought I remembered it being green originally but it's entirely possible you're correct. Would make much more sense than to think that an app could 'break' the led functionality.
+1 for jmbillings.
Natively the LED is only flashing only whitish and as to be readable in a couple of threads not even that is working properly at all times.
Never had any issue with Light Flow except a not stopping notification ones a week. Bought it for Whatsapp and I'm still happy. No battery drain at all at no time.
you guys must be getting dozens of notifications in a day.
i've never even seen lightflow pop up under my battery statistics.
I use light flow on my Nexus and it works great!
Same here lightflow works great on my Nexus. And every single color I tried works. If some people are having trouble with the light still flashing even after swiping the notification away, try going into the app itself. It apparently will keep flashing until I actually check the notification out in the app.
Light flow didn't work for me, it would either flash constantly in test mode or do nothing. My LED does flash green for chompSMS but white for everything else.
light flow works 100% for me. Notifications always work and no notification his become 'stuck' when I clear it...

Well maybe it's a native problem that I'm having. It will not notify me now of a missed call or an email. The only time I'm seeing the led blink is when I get a text message.
The developer actually took the time to reply to me and make some recommendations to improve battery life.
I'll give it another try, still having intermittent battery issues but may be more related to location polling than this app.
Thanks again to the folks here who take the time to help out.

Yes, I do.
I don't see it under the native battery stats - it did show up fairly high on the list when I was using battery monitor widget.
Honestly, trying to figure out my battery issues has me suspicious of every app I install...
Works perfectly on my Verizon Nexus as well. The only hiccup is Handcent. If I dismiss the popup window on Handcent, the LED will continue to flash, until I actually go into Handcent and view the message,
I was using it to alert me if bluetooth was on, and that notification would tend to persist after I had turned bluetooth off.
For those having issues clearing the LED notifications, keep in mind just clearing the notification from the drop down won't turn off the LED. It will stay on until the notification is further acknowledged (i.e. the SMS message is 'read' under messages...or email etc).
Also, something I've found helpful is the lightflow debugger widget that comes installed with the app. From there you can clear all notifications as well as see what the last notification was
Technically the phone works well with all 17 colors - but as a male i must say that there are only approx. 8 colors existing in the world...
I think they need to combine the app (LightFlow) with the color selector from AOKP ROM. Its basically the MS Windows/Photoshop color chooser we're all used to: a circle with a slider to the right. The combination of those allows you to choose ANY color in the spectrum. And the LED will display it. (Blood red is my favorite....not as "light up your room" as the default cyan/white)
I did catch the LED lighting up yellow when I had a text that didnt get delivered....not sure if thats the SMS app Im using (GoSMS) or the kernel/ROM but something made it flash different color at different frequency.
Id love LightFlow just for all the apps it responds to....especially Words with Friends.
The notification LED was working fine with the stock ROM. After flashing to AOKP milestone 3 and then b25, it stopped working (for both versions). Missed calls, emails and sms don't trigger the LED. I tried light flow lite to test it too and it didn't work.
I did a data wipe/cleared cache before each flash. Nothing important on the phone at the moment as its brand new.
Any ideas or known bugs with the custom ROM's with the LED?
update: flashed back to google stock rom, installed both led tester and light flow, LED still doesn't work

LED should work on stock ROM. I haven't had any issues with the LED on the stock ROM for the last two months.
If the LED has stopped working on the stock ROM, I'd be inclined to suggest a possible hardware issue.
The only variation I've seen is twitter uses green on the LED light. Perhaps see if any of the other variation of colors on the LED appear other than the standard white/multi color?
The other route I'd take to test would be to figure out the sysfs control files for the LED and test through echo'n values there.
Hope that helps give a few more suggestions!

how do i echo the values there? meanwhile, im still searching the control file for the LED.
i have flashed back to stock rom + locked bootloader.
nothing i do seems to work, i guess it is a hardware issue. anyone else experience the same thing? how is it that the LED just stops working? i'm starting to wonder if the 3 metal contacts (i think its for the dock), if touched, can cause the LED to die.

I've been able to get it to work using Xposed/Gravitybox under the Ultimate Notification Control section.

Confirmed! You just need to get used to the colors, but it is working, thanks for this!
I use Light Manager. A little simpler than light flow and works perfectly fine on my OP3.
My light flow (pro) is working fine. Got snapchat glowing yellow whatsapp green and charging light set to red. Seems to be working fine.

Did you turn on accessibility? And what LED control methods do you have on in settings?

I'm sorry I'm not using light flow. It's actually light manager!

I'm using this combination as well, and it's working.. sort of. When my screen is off, the notification light constantly cycles through all the available colors, just like when you run the test and have to turn the screen off.. only permanent. Not sure why it's happening, never had this issue w/ any previous devices. I did restore my data from previous install, but I've gone through all the settings and checked/unchecked at some point and it's still happening. Thoughts/

I talked with the developer.. It seems that is an Oxygen OS related issue.. He told me that also the s7 edge was having that issue and it was fixed by Samsung with a software update.. On Oxygen I read also some people that has problem with stock led control.. Then probably there is something buggy on our system..
I didn't try any other led app however.. Did you?

Oh that's good to know, thx for sharing. I haven't tried any other app yet, I just disabled LightFlow for now since the constant cycling has to chew up extra battery when the screen is off. I'm also still on 3.1.3, going to upgrade to 3.1.2 and see if that helps.
