I tend to have my phone on silent a lot but the notifications still light up the screen such as text messages etc but I have noticed a few times that when I get calls on silent (Haven't tested on other profiles) the screen only lights up when the call has been missed but it literally lights up the screen and has no notification to say I have missed a call, I only see that once I unlock the phone and swipe down on the notifications bar... I haven't changed any notification settings and it only seems to happen with calls.
Has anyone else had a similar issue?

I have the same Problems on Vibrate-Only, some Calls get missed some others lights up the Display.
I don´t have an answer why it sometimes work and sometimes not.

Is there any way to tell if you have a missed call or text message without turning on the p3300 when it goes into standby?
Some quick tests seems to reveal that the LEDs don't blink differently like they do on some other HTC models?
I have recently moved from a mobile phone and the standby screen showed the time and if any missed calls or SMS were pending. How much would the battery life be affected to have the screen still on all the time but with minimal information and no backlight?
My p3300 has to be on silent most of the time and I would really like a quick way to see what I have missed (if anything) when I glance at it.
install A SMS and activate the sms reminder, it will tell you how many sms messages you have that are unread, at any time interval you wish
I actually found the solution this morning - under Sounds you can set the light to blink (the right one blinks orange instead of the normal green) for various notifications. By default SMS is set to off - I set that and missed call to blink indefinitely.
Yep that works fine, Orange light indicates missed calls or SMS, it also flashes in shorter intervalls so you can get that information with a short glance at your device. And by the way, it does not matter how many information the screen tells, the battery life is the same screen on means screen is on, no matter if it shows blank white or informations ;P
I don't know if anyone else is having this problem but my touch pro 2 has the tendency to stay lit after a text message. It can get very annoying because if I get a text message in the middle of the night it stays lit all night until I find it in the morning. This only occurs sometimes and is usually fixed with a reboot.
Under settings > Power> I have my backlight and "turn off device" everything set to 1 min. Does anyone know a fix to this problem? Thanks
That's weird. Take a look at your sound and notification settings.
My screen doesn't turn on when I get a text message, I just hear the sound and the light up top flashes.
can you please tell me what you have checked under notifications and sound?
i would love for it to just play a sound instead of having the screen light up thanks!
You might need to disable wake up on new sms thingy.
I just bought a HTC Desire Z two days ago, and was wondering about the notification light, as there are TWO in the desire Z
my question is, should the top notification light goes on when I recieve a notification, or only the bottom one will light up?
and if it's only the bottom one, how can I make the top one light up too? and in different colors, like in my friends HTC G1, he has blue, green, and red
thx for your time!
On my stock ROM (see my signature), the trackpad light blinks if you turn on that notification, but it's only every 10 seconds or so, and I actually never noticed it originally and thought it wasn't working at all. It doesn't blink the power LED.
However, I use the "Led Me Know" app from the market, and you can configure that to blink either the top LED or the trackpad LED, depending on how you set it up.
You can't make the trackpad LED blink different colours unfortunately, this was looked into a while back. The top one is limited to amber or green.

ok, thx alot for the fast reply
I used LED Me Know. Works fine for the LED, but it often overrides (e.g.) my Gmail notification sound with the standard notification sound I have for messages. Or it just plays both notification sounds. I hate that, and there's no option to activate or deactivate it messing with the sounds.
Does this happen to you too?

Sorry I don't use Gmail notification and I haven't tried playing with the sounds. I suggest contacting the developer about it, he responded quickly to me when I contacted him before.

You can disable the g-mail notifications and let the app do it's own thing...
One weird thing I have noticed with the app is that it delays the notifications... Like first it disables the notification for any texts... and it pretty much waits out the time that it would have taken for the notification (vibrations) and then follows through with the notification you selected in the app settings. So pretty much I see the LED blinking for like 5 seconds before I get any audible or vibrating notification.
EDIT: I also realize that this is very poorly worded and hard to follow, But I can't think of any other way to say it so bear with me!! XD
Currently, running Cyanogenmod 10.1.2-toro with a build number cm_toro-userdebug 4.2.2 JDQ39E.
OK, suddenly, I have lost all notification sounds. And yes, I have tried and made sure everything is turned up.
Normal daily use is I turn down notifications to 1 notch above vibrate only while at work, so I still know something comes in, but does not bother co-workers. Then turn it up full blast when I leave. Today was no different. I got messages with notification noises this morning, turned it down at work like normal, and didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. Left work, turned it up and nothing. When I am changing the volume with the rocker, I can hear the level it should be at, but when I get calls, emails, texts, no noise, just vibrate and that is only on Google Voice. Checked all the settings, they are all turned up. When I change ringers for things, I can hear the change. When a notification comes in, looking at all the settings, I should be getting sound. I do still get the blinking LED to let me know things have come in.
Please tell me I am stupid and somehow did missed some easy checkbox or something..
It seems like ever since Oreo (currently running Pie) my notifications have been really screwed up and I'm at a loss as to how to fix it. I need help lol.
1) With screen off, a lot of times I won't get any notifications until I wave my hand over the proximity sensor.
2) Sometimes my LED doesn't turn on. Like, I'll grab my phone and there'll be a notification on the lock screen, but the LED doesn't alert me to it. Other apps don't flash the LED at all even though it's turned on in settings.
3) I never get voicemail notifications. At all. And I can see missed phone calls if I open the phone app, but there's otherwise no indication of missed calls. Wtf!
I've tinkered with all of the notification settings to no avail. I also noticed the number of options that can affect notifications seems a complicated mess. I'm a bit disappointed at what the Android notifications have become.
Can anyone offer any help with this?
