Looking for an app that will flash the camera flash for phone calls and notifications. Something sorta like the iPhones. I did some Google searches and saw people using things like tasker and light flow. Any of you use anything?

um... isnt that the purpose of a LED notification light? i dont understand why someone would want camera flash to be their notification as it is so bright.
Well normal notification light is not very noticeable if your phone is on silent. The camera flash thing on the iPhone is pretty cool.

The reason why apple iPhones do it is Cuz they're notification light wannabes.

Light Flow can do this. Go to settings, towards the bottom under LED Hardware Control, Camera Flash LED Control.

But this way it only works after the call. With the app above you'll get camera led flash while calling as a notification. This helps to see anybodys calling you, while leaving the phone on silent mode.
So you're telling me that if you were a woman, and had your phone in your handbag and the phone was facing down. That's an acceptable way? Having a random light come out of your bag in and out? Doesn't sound too smart and I don't think that iPhone has a notification LED light.
How exactly is the notification light not noticeable? Use Light Flow and change the colors to make it more notifiable it gives you absolute control over your LED.

put a diffuser over it, translucent scotch tape would probably help quite a bit
You should start reading why read eye happens.
---------- Post added at 12:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:20 AM ----------
Or if you want fast answer
Be as close possible, it doesn't happen because of bright flash, it happens if you're flash is week and you are to far.
Person should be looking right in the lens will reduce the chance of red eye
Will happen more in low light situations
Some eyes will get you more red eyes than others.
You can remove the red eye in the GNEX built in Photo editor.

Are you guys rooted because thats been out for a while now.. My phone capacitive lights blink when I have a text, missed call or email...
Edit: I see you are new to xda but now sure if you lurked prior... this is a great site with alot of great developers and ideas floating around. Do yourself a favor and search more than just here but other sub-forums as well like Android General. There are apps called BLn notification that do what you need as well as AOKP or CM(/10 which have this capability.
Do you see my sig' you got to remember to do that whenever you want to know about something

See how easy that was.....lol Remember guys google is your friend
I have searched and came up with nothing. This was a while back so something might of changed. The issues with xda search on a mobile phone sucks. I want the flash because at work it very noisy and seeing the flash from a distance would be better than dull lights on bottom of phone.
Edit. I just saw the other post. Giving it a try.

The thing is most people assume they need to search xda to find something on xda but in reality I go to google and put in what I want to search on xda but just add xda to the end of it... ex: "use camera as notification xda" then hit search from google and check out the results. That is how I find everything
Hey hope I helped you and the OP was a good sport thanking me twice after clicking the link specially made for the both of you.... :laugh:

I thought I'd share this app with everyone. Did a search, but it doesn't seem to have been posted yet. It's called Screen Adjuster and can be used to remove the yellow tint some people find on their phones. The app does not require root. On mine, bumping the blue to +5 seemed to be enough since it wasn't tinted very badly to begin with.
This is perfect! Jellybean broke screen filter app and I love being able to go below 0% brightness. This app works like a charm.

Not sure how it can do anything real without root access. My guess is it is just sorry of an overlay or something like that.

Just a couple quick questions. I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to:
A - control the color, rate, etc of the front LED. I NEVER see mine as it is. Starting to wonder if mine's broken. It was a feature I was really looking forward to coming from the tiny, invisible LED of the HTC One S, too!
B - flash the camera flash with text messages. I found a way to do it with the Galaxy SIII before I sold it but I don't remember how I did it. Dunno if it'd work on this anyway.
Any help greatly appreciated! Thanks!

This will allow you to control the LED:

Trackball Alert is free, but isn't as feature-full as Light Flow
Use LightFlow. The dev is working on support for the camera flash.

I have light flow already, the purchased one, and it doesn't seem to do anything. Even when I try to test the settings, the little window pops up saying the test will begin in 5 seconds, nothing happens. Screen on, screen off, doesn't matter.
Am I doing it wrong?

Are you sure you led is not broken?
I have also a question to the notification LED. If I have no app installed to control it, when should it normally blink?
I never see the LED blinking, but I know it works, because I already tested it with a custom ROM where you could set different options for it.
But I am intereseted when exactly it should blink without modifications? I defentively doesn't blink for emails on my device.

Lightflow already has camera flash notification ability... And it's had it since the Nexus 4 went on the market
If you go into the settings, scroll all the way down, there's a nice big ole button that says CAMERA FLASH LED CONTROL
Turn it on, and you're done, you can configure it in the notification settings.
Surprised so many of you thought it was broken lol, all you had to do was look at that app settings.

I upgraded to the note 4 from the note 2 and i love it. But the one feature i use as much as i can is the ultra contrast mode that kicks in automatically while in sunlight. I know most hate it...but i fly a phantom 2 and i use my phone for live video feed.
So my question is this. Is there an app or setting to make that function turn on and off when i choose too. It does kick on by itself when in sunlight...but not always. I would love it if i can turn it on myself though manually. I have googled a lot to see and haven't found anything yet...so i thought about asking here.
Anyone? I spent about an hour today looking and nothing
