Missing LED notification colors - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Nexus 5x arrived and I enabled notification LED pulsing in settings, installed Light Flow, then started testing.
It seems that there isn't full RGB color control. For example, anything set to orange becomes red, anything set to pink becomes purple. Is this a software issue with LED control apps not having been updated for full Nexus 5x control? Anyone else experience something similar / have any workarounds?

My answer to your 1st question is highly likely. 2nd question is I have not tried any led apps yet, but wow the 5X led is super bright!

Same here

I have that problem using PureNexus's notification lights

[Help] Regarding the LED light on top of phone.

First of all. I would like to know, if the LED light can change to different colors other than the Green, orange(?), and red?
If so, is there anyway that I can tweak the led light on the top of the rhodium to turn a certain color when we have a notification waiting? (New Email, Text message, ect.)
i guess the hardware device can't support ....
afaik the LED under that is a standard 3 pin Green/Red LED. The orange is created by combining the two. So no there aren't really any other colour options. Aside from maybe getting greener or redder shades of orange.
There was a great app written for the Kaiser called Kaiser notification that allowed you to change the color of the led for different notifications. I think this is what you are asking about is it not?
I'd love to know how to change the colors for particular notifications!
I'd love to know if there is anyway to DISABLE the green blinking that goes on and on indicating reception.
There was superb app for my old Titan from no2chem... anything similar for our TP2's?

Interesting, my Tilt 2 does NOT blink for reception, bluetooth, or GPS, unlike the original Tilt which blinked incessantly without KaiserNotification set up.
Maybe ROM differences?

No Missed Call notification LED?

I thought I saw my wife's phone has the tiny Green LED on top that flashes on missed call. I don't have it on mine. How do I test or get this LED to flash? Does it even exist or it's replaced by the bottom RGB LED? Either or, can someone please educate me on this? I must have turned off the feature somewhere perhaps?
Thanks in advance
You may have turned off the pulse notification light. But if you haven't you should probably know that the light is kinda iffy sometimes lol. Download light flow and you can set the color of the led and for it to blink at a certain speed or even be a solid light

[Q] Notification LED: Purple light anyone?

Happy Holidays everyone!
I've read through some of the older threads on how to control out LED notification light using Lightflow and Blink and found that there are only 3 different settings:
Red: red LED, slow blink/constant on
Blue: blue LED, slow blink/constant on
White: red LED, fast blink (most useful in my opinion for notification)
Has anyone been able to get their LED to flash purple yet (besides during reboots)? This will require the red and blue LEDs to be on simultaneously but I've played all day in Blink and Lightflow and have not been able to do this. If you have, please let me know what program you're using and what settings you have.
Thanks everyone!
You have to use green for purple. Weird, but that's how it works

Sad - I wasn't able to get the purple LED by selecting green in Lightflow or Blink. Anyone else successful?f
Sounds like something that could be done using tasker, but I wouldn't know the codes.

[Q] Any luck with Lightflow?

I was just wondering if anyone here has had luck with lightflow in getting notifications to work.
Currently I can either enable the notification light, and all it does is blink green (despite no notifications), or turn it off. Testing with lightflow resulted in, what seems like, no changes. I know there might not be a large range of colours, but it would be nice to control the notification LED.
It didn't work with any app available, I can't not understand why...maybe the led is not capable of showing more than two or three colors?
The number of colours isn't really an issue. For example, the Nexus S blinked the Home, Menu and back buttons. As long as it can be controlled it would be nice, but it doesn't seem to be able to do it.
I've been aware that I see the notification light even if there are no notifications

Mi Max 3 LED Notification Light

Hi everyone,
I've noticed that the Mi Max 3 has an LED Notification that's a white light.
Does anyone know if it is an RBG LED? I can't seem to get Light Flow working correctly with it.
Unless I'm mistaken, or uninformed that the LED cannot be customized?
Thanks for reading.

Unfortunately, it's a white led only. Light Flow and Light Manager won't work.
yes, tiny led light is the only minus point when I upgraded to max 3 from max 1
Notification light is barely noticable, is there any way to use the front flash as notification?
