Feint LED - Note 7 Questions & Answers

Its not very bright at all. About 30% of my note 5. Issue or normal? thanks

Wat?

I had a note 3, and the led was very bright, sometimes a little annoying in dark places, when upgraded to note4, I found the led very dim, I dont know about the note5 as I didnt like it, but now, this note7 has the same level of led brightness as the note 4, that is, faint

Screen pulsating brightness

So I noticed this yesterday when I open handcent.. As the screen got brighter it pulsated for a second going brighter and dimmer for a few seconds then stopped. Is that just my light sensor acting up?
Must be a fluke since no one else is seeing this? I may just sell the phone and get the sgs3 today.

[Q] Strange behaviour of Red LED While charging

I have noticed that while my note 2 is charging then the brightness of the Red LED keeps changing from low to high at very irregular and unexplained intervals. When I spoke to Samsung Customer Service in Hongkong then they also said that it shouldnt happen and I need to brign the handset to the service centre.
Has anybody else experienced similar situation ?
I have noticed it sometimes happens when I am changing the light conditions in the room by switching off and on the room light but that also not always.
Please help as this is very new phone to me .
It has been said that the brightness of the LED changes according to the ambient light source. If you're in a bright room, the LED will be bright and in a dark room LED will be dim.
And yes, mine acts the same way as yours.

Thanks for your reply. Where has it been mentioned ? Why are Samsung engineers telling me that it's not a normal behaviour ?
Mine does the same thing. Was wondering myself if it is designed to do this or an 'issue'...
Same here..
Yes this is the new Jellybean 4.1 feature
Yes!!
It happens with my Galaxy S3 as well after updating to latest Jellybean 4.1, Actually it is Jellybean feature. nothing wrong with your charger or your device. I have checked practically. (Design for humans, Inspired by nature concept.)
Same here as well, nothing worry about I guess
Different model as it happened to my S3 but I guess it's kinda related, the red LED was going from bright to dim when charging. Plus it was in a dark room, so I don't think it's got anything to do with the ambient sensor or anything. Happened for about 2-3 days and then it died. Tried to switched it on, took out the battery and put it back in again, no luck. Unfortunately I never got to know what was the problem as I got pick-pocketed while on holiday and never got to sent it in to a Samsung Service Center :crying:
Went out and bought a new Note 2 though, so silver lining and all that...
Same here
Same here...I can almost say that when led is brighter it charges faster

Red LED

Does anyone else have a problem with the red LED being awfully dim. Green and blue are bright as can be, but red is really dim.

Are you using light flow? I tried to play with that, and when I would plug in to charge it almost flickered like it was dim.

Mine seems to change based on lighting

The same thing happens with the international noteII and the international SGS3 (i9300) with JB firmware. The notification LED auto-adjusts it's brightness based on the light sensor (similar to the screen auto-brightness.)
To prove it to yourself, hold the phone so it's facing a bright light source and you'll see that the notification LED is brighter. Turn off all the lights in a dark room, and the LED gets dimmer.
Personally, I think it's a nice feature. The LED is for notification, not a strobe light in a dark bedroom.
Not using light flow or anything.
As for brightness, it seems to be dim no matter the light, and the others seem to be bright no matter the light.

Wow that is cool. I keep my phone next to my bed, and use it as an alarm. When I had the LG Thrill I had a BLN (touch keys as notification) app and it was so distracting at night I had to turn my phone over so it didn't blink and light up the whole room at night.

The thing is that my green and blue lights DO light up the room in the middle of the night. LOL.
I went to the AT&T store today and their red LED is about the same.

[Q] Does the note 10.1 (2014) use PWM at all level of brightness?

Hi, my english won't be very good because it's not my native langage.
I'm very sensitive to the flicker caused by PWM (Pulse Width modulation) wich is a technique used in the backlighting of a lot of LCD display to dim the brightness of the screen. I'm a "migraineur with aura" wich is a neurological disease, so like epileptic people my eyes and my brain are very sensitive to all sort of visual stress even the most subliminal one like PWM used at a high frequency. And I wanted to know if the note 10.1 (2014) use PWM to dim the screen at all level of brightness? I m' sure that it use it a least until 50 %, and that it is not PWMed at 100% brightness. Cause at 50% i'm sick litteraly within second, and at 100% i'm ok. But I have not tested all the level between 50 to 100 cause if it's flicker I can have quite a serious seazure, which would leave me ill for days, so it's quite hasardeous for my health. So what i'm doing is that i leave the system brightness to 100% wich of course is too bright, but I dim it with a soft (screen adjuster) that can dim the display without touching the backlight. But it's not a perfect solution cause the display is still using a lot of energy that way and there's a lot amount of blue wavelenght coming from it and i'm sensitive to blue wavelenght too. Basically as you can see, LED backligh is not a very good technology for epileptic people, eye-sensitive or migraineur. (I personally think it's not a healthy tec for anybody)
So, I just wanted to know if someone know if there's an "official" level where the note doesn't use PWM anymore to control the brightness of the screen, I mean below 100? Thanks in advance, and i'm sorry if my post can sound a bit confuse, it's not easy to try to ask and explain something in a langage that's note your native langage. Thanks in advance.

OnePlus 5T Notification LED Brightness

I've just recently seen the OnePlus 5T at an O2 Store in the UK and noticed that the LED brightness is really low. However, there was no setting to incrase or decrase its brightness. Is it really that dark or was it just due the lighting in the store?

I would say that it's certainly enough. It's just a tiny LED, but it does the job.
Coming from a Samsung note 4 and then a OP3T I think the LED is not as bright on this phone. Looking at it closer though it may be the size of the LED and not the actual brightness of the LED that's causing the issue. It is bright enough to see though.
