LED issues? - LG Optimus G Pro

Just picked this up 2 days ago. Can't find anything really saying if light flow works or not. But even gosms the notification light doesn't work. Am I missing something? I have it enabled.

Well maybe this will be going back then unfortunately. I thought it would've worked being that it's multi colored

You can install LightFlow (or another LED manager) to manage your LED Notifications.

First make sure you have the led turned on...its in the settings. Light flow will work but you have to disable talkback (its an Android problem not an LG issue) question.. does your led light up when you turn the phone on? ..when your phone is off turn it on if it lights up all the colors then its working if not then maybe a hardware issue.

I have the led turned on. When you say disable it you mean have the toggle to off correct? Yup, it goes through all the colors when booting up.

Went into apps and disabled it there. Still no go.

So anyone get lightflow to work? Doesn't seem to work for me.

Working for me. Did you enable it in accessibility settings and enable notifications for the individual apps you want notifications for (via Lightflow)?
I didn't try it with your AOSP Messaging app, yet. I wasn't even getting status bar notifications, though.

I think I'm using the app wrong,,I turned it on in there and selected my app but no go,,I did notice it made my keyboard talk to me every time I press a key though which is annoying.

In your Accessibility Settings disable TalkBack and make sure Light Flow is enabled. Hopefully that straightens things out.

You need to actually go in to the main settings, General, apps, select talkback, force stop, and then disable it (you may need to uninstall updates first). I had the same problem a little while ago. Does it only say the letters using the LG keyboard? Mine didn't do it for other keyboards.
Also, if you use tasker at all, it can successfully control the led colors. If you want to play with it, you can assign different colors for specific notifications. I haven't done so yet for the ogp, but I made an app for the lgog (only one color for that led though). Also, if you look up something called "buttonled" by germainz here on xda, he has made a tasker profile and app that might work for you too.

I did a factory reset and went in and disabled talk back. Led works now with lightflow. Only thing that bothers me is when I test the new color, it'll blink new color then a different color then back to assigned color. That normal for this phone? Thanks for the help by the way.

[Q] Any way to permanently disable/turn OFF the H,M,B,S capacitive lights??

I would LOVE to permanently disable the lights of the capacitive buttons. I hate the lights behind the Home, Menu, Back, Search buttons and would like to permanently disable them.
Please and thank you!

How did you do this? You can change the color of the buttons? I'm on the "Light sersor levels screen" in CM6.1.2 but different values don't do much. 0 under "buttons" turns them off like xjackofall said, but a different color would be nice.

Sounds like a hardware thing.
I wonder if he did the led's at the top too?

That application in the market just kept asking for permission via superuser. If I act fast i can sneak into the program and disable the lower leds but it's always asking permissions.
Any fix?

LED issue

Is anyone else having an issue with this? I already have the Led notifications disabled yet when I get a missed call, text or email the led still lights up. I have unticked the options in settings>led indicator. I am using the stock apps for messaging, email and phone calls. No 3rd party apps.
I thought the issue was with gmail as I read it somewhere on the intertnet. But that doesnt seem to be it. If it was why does it still blink with a misssed call or text.
Anyone else with this issue? I really dont want to do anothsr master reset. I have had to go through four master reset for other issues. I finaly got the phone set up the way I want and dont want to do it all over again.
Any help is appreciated.

Having the same exact issue here. Was going to start a thread about it myself.
I have the LED for notifications OFF in the system settings but they still continue to appear. I have tried multiple things to no avail.
I too am just on stock GS3, no rooting.
Would love to find a fix if anyone has found one...
I read here on these forums that your issue was a KNOWN issue and that it'll be worked out
with the next update........ if there's any truth to that, we'll see.

Have you checked yes for notifications in the default apps themselves?

Yes thats correct. If I disable the notification option in the default apps then I wouldnt get a sound or status bar notification when a text or email comes in. All options for the LED lights are disabled in the settings.
Im hoping that this is a bug that will be fixed in a future update. I really dont want to master reset again.
If I were to reset, will my apps be downloaded automatically? All the resets I have done I had to manually look for them and download them again.
Thanks everyone for the feedback. Hope we can find a solution for this.

If you reset, you have to go to Play, choose My Apps from phone menu and reinstall. Only updates are (if you so choose) automatic.
As I remember it, with my I747 I had to set notifications to be on in apps and also set LED indicator to display when there was activity. Otherwise, the phone could set there all day and I'd never know there were messages or missed calls.

UPDATE!!!! After uninstalled lightflow the Samsung keyboard swype came back like a charm. Hmmm, looks like no more lightflow.
Hey Thanks!!!
Yeah, Lightflow is really non compatible with this phone. The dev posted in a thread here that there are problems with Sammys sw if I remember right. So as it is now, you have to do without the swype and turn off/on airview I think. At least the phone comes with different charging and notification colors. But, I miss my Lightflow custom colors

I use lightflow and I havent had any problems? At first when you enable lightflow in accessibility it prompts you to disable air view so disable it. After lightflow is enabled, try enabling air view again and it should work.
I have both lightflow and air view working simultaneously.

This is a Samsung issue
Unfortunately this seems to be a Samsung issue on their phones. This issue also occurs on my Audio Control application. I allow custom notification vibrate patterns as part of my application which uses an Accessibility Service. Something Samsung is doing is screwing up developers apps. I've tried to contact Samsung but have not receive any reply. Known devices that have issues are the Galaxy S3 and Note 2

Vibration for notifications

I searched and could not find anything regarding changing the vibration pattern for an all stock note 2. Mine will only vibrate in a single long pattern, no matter what I set it to in the settings. I like to use the stock messaging because it's compatibility with the lock screen but I'd really like it to vibrate in a couple short pulses instead of that single long one. If I'm missing something I apologize but I have no idea what to change aside from the options in the settings menu. Any help or other information would be much appreciated, I'm sure it's something silly I'm missing anyway!
Go to settings- sounds-device vibration u can chabge it to a few different patterns

I am not sure! That is how the note 1 default notification vibrate was, the single long pulse. The sms mms one was a quick twin pulse, I'd prefer that! I like how the sms app works with the tw lock screen and launcher etc so I don't want to use another one if I can avoid it. I wish it would allow me to use a different vibration setting because my phone is silent a lot! I asked samsung and they gave me the ringtone answer. The service from the online chat is weak.

How did you disable Lightflow in Accessibility. Did you just turn it off? If so then you do not get the full capability of Lightflow correct, or am I missing something here? Talked to the folks at Lightflow and they are stumped.
