Guys,
My girlfriend just got the XT720. I don't see ANY lights on this thing - power (when charging) or when a text comes in, nothing "flashes". You have to turn on the screen to see if any messages came through.
I've hunted for information and don't see anything telling me that there is actual visual notification on the phone. I carry a Nexus One and the trackball light flashes to tell you that you've missed something. There are 3 dots on the upper left corner of the XT720 just above the screen, and those "may" be lights, but I have no diagrams or information to tell me. If they are lights, they don't work.
Can anyone give me a quick piece of advice on this?
Cheers,
Mark.
No notification lights on this piece. Lol jus vibrate. Lol

I was a little disappointed to find out that there were no notifications lights. Coming from a Blackberry I'm used to the red blinky light for notifications. In fact, I had everything on silent except incoming calls - the light was enough to tell me (even from across the room) if there was any notifications. I know you can set the 4 touch sensitive buttons at the bottom to blink...but it's infrequent and they tend to stay off if a notification comes in.
Would it be possible to write a script to make use of the 3 media LEDs on the side for notifications (emails, SMS, missed calls, Facebooks, etc)? I have little to no programming knowledge so I certainly can't - nor do I know if it's even possible.
Hey easye420, thanks for the reply...althought it's not what I was hoping for! LOL I find it difficult to believe there's no blinking light of sorts on this thing.
Riley600, she too is coming from a blackberry and that's her gripe about it. I've been trying to get her onto an android for a while and this was the best device her wireless company offered. I like your idea about a script to do this and think many people would love to have it....especially ex-blackberry users! I'm not a programmer though so can't help in the design I'm afraid.
Thanks also for the note on the back buttons flashing. I'll see if there's a good app to make those blink....just some visual notification that you've missed something. I'd think that would be a standard feature of any of today's phones.
Cheers,
Mark.

No app needed.
Settings --> Sound & Display Settings --> check Visual Notification (and Periodic Notification if you want to get reoccurring notifications).
I forgot bout that. When i had it enabled if i turned to screen on when it was blinkin they would either stay off or stay on and it would piss me off.

that's a known Motobug. We've reported Moto regarding this issue long ago but till now, no fix is applied.
Thanks for the feedback from everyone. Now I know where this issues stands and what my options are.
Cheers.
I am still curious though, does anyone know if making a script to use the media LED lights for notifications is possible?

Hey Riley600, sorry mate I don't know the answer to that. I would assume it's possible, but not sure how difficult it would be.... maybe someone else knows?
Yes it is possible.
as you know, the xt720 doesn't have multicolor led (other phones has one, which can basically light in 3 different colors).
Anyway, i was playing some times ago and discovered, that the multimedia leds, corresponds to red, green and blue colors
just find the notes i have made:
Code:
/sys# echo 1 > ./bus/platform/devices/notification-led/leds/blue/brightness
camcorder
/sys# echo 1 > ./bus/platform/devices/notification-led/leds/green/brightness
camera
/sys# echo 1 > ./bus/platform/devices/notification-led/leds/red/brightness
gallery
sys/./devices/platform/button-backlight/leds/button-backlight/brightness
four buttons
/sys# echo 0 >./devices/platform/af-led/leds/af-led/brightness
af led
so instead of possible, it seems to be easy (rooted phone assumed)
i have seen several apps, which can deal with notifications (market)
this can be used for the code to deal when to trigger notification
and i use adjbrightness, which works in similar way.
this can be used for the code to trigger the leds
here is an information link to adj brightness.

edit: actually it can be even easier, but it depends on the /sys entries of a phone with dedicated led. but the idea is the same

That's great to know that it should be easy. But I'm going to be honest in saying that I'm not an Android expert.
If you would be so kind to give me a set of easy to follow steps (my phone is rooted, I know how to use adb, etc) on how to set something up to blink the media LEDs for notification, your coffees next week will be on me. I don't know how to (or have the ability to) unpack APKs, edit them and repack them. If you can provide a easy to implement solution (some basic editing of an existing program or an APK for me to use), you will not only be my hero - you will also have some more money in your pocket. It sounds like you might be a couple other people's hero in this thread as well.
Thanks!
it is not about money
it is not about coffee (there is just a new espresso machine in the office
it is about time...
so i will go deeper in the very possible and very easy way (i have edited my post above).
i saw some applications on the market , which can do the job (e.g. deal with the led for some events aka notifications ).
the easiest way is to find a phone, when they worked as expected.
then on this phone, to find the corresponding entries in the /sys folder, which deals with the leds, and just try some symbolic links to our leds
in the easiest way it will be as simple as:
ln -s /sys/bus/platform/devices/notification-led/leds/green/brightness /sys/what_ever_path_is_needed
of course there will be some drawback (e.g. not fully customizable), but it will work.
this method will not require nothing else...
anyway more appropriate way (more time consuming) will be to modify some almost do the job application, to do it for our phones. (actually, to submit patches to the developers regarding support of our phones).
this is the right way (in my opinion). the prerequisites:
1. application which do the job for some phone
2. open source
then:
3. spent some time in code
4. test the patch
5. send it to mainstream
i will be glad to do it for fun, will appreciate help regarding step 1 and 2

I have a basic idea of what you're saying here. I used Root Explorer to navigate to /sys/bus/platform/devices/notification-led. It appears as a empty file, though. I'm not sure if the ln -s is a command or what. Would you be able to elaborate a little?
And this method would obviously not allow for the setting of a custom blinking interval, etc. Being able to set something like that would be awesome - but right now I'll take whatever I can get.
Or would it be possible to change the settings for the key backlight blink to one of the media LEDs? Perhaps by moving or changing one of the system files?
I use "Missed Reminder" for calls, emails and sms. Works fine.

Solution found!
An app called 'LED me know' by p0w4p0ty (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=837057) is able to use the 3 media lights to signal notifications. So far I've found it works for Gmail, SMS and missed calls - but I believe it supports other notifications as well. At this moment, it doesn't seem to work for Gtalk notifications. It's highly customizable (you can set each one of the 3 media lights to blink [corresponding to red, green and blue] or you can set them to blink in combinations [2 lights for cyan and 3 lights for white]). I should mention that the phone needs to be rooted in order for this to work with the XT720.
I'm very pleased with it so far and it's free (in fact I'm looking across the room right now and see that I have a SMS).
Hi Everyone,
I have searched Google and must say I can't find any solution for changing SMS WakeUp / Notification pop-up.
It is so annoying when the screen lights up.
I would also like to be able to disable that it shows the message in the top statusbar.
I have unlocked my phone by finding the "ChevronWP7" unlocker tool and send (by e-mail) the "ChevronCert" to my WP7 HTC Trophy and installed the certificate. Downloaded "Tom XAP Installer v1.2.zip" and installed "RegistryEditor 1.1.0.0.xap" where I have tried several registry fixes found on different websites: "modify-sms-notifications-in-windows-phone-7" but nothing worked also found a solution here and the same again nothing i working:
[HK_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]
"DisableSMSWakeUpEvent"=dword:1
Could someone help out I would really appreciate....
Thanks.
Bump please
Bump...Lookin for the same thing
Sorry guys, but why would you want this? I hate it on my Android. I have to push the power button every single time, which in turn, kills my hardware buttons.
At least you guys go to your lockscreen with a notification at the top, I had to download an app to wake the screen and it bypasses the lockscreen and I text/call people every single day lol. I wish it would just GO TO THE LOCKSCREEN!!!
Privacy, of course!
Bump.
@Dj21o: With respoect, I can think of at least one good reason why this setting should be "settable" and that is privacy. I may be in an environment where I don't want just anyone to be able to see an SMS as it arrives just by looking at my screen.
The fact that you would prefer it this way is, of course, good, too, but I think ther choice should be in the hands of the user.
Don't youy agree?

Yeah, it should be available for those that want it, and for those who don't... It is a simple setting that make it a big deal for users, and I can totally see where you are coming from. Sometimes my phone unlocks, and that is swiping left to right. I imagine it happens much more swiping up lol.
There is a site where you can put down ideas for developers to look at, and people vote for them. I can post the link of the site if you want.
Here is the site, you can post your ideas accordingly to what type of idea it is.

Any news about this???
So, disable Toast notifications in WhatsApp? That's a (required) per-app setting, no need to request an OS feature for it!
Why you don't flip you phone down? If proximity sensor detect something close to phone display it will don't turn display on when toast notification pop-up.
Hi,
Is there an app (working with the Sensation) that can make the LED notification light flash continually until you actually open the new message or am I stuck having to bring the phone out of sleep incessantly to check if anything new has come in?
Surely such an app would just eat battery up for no reason.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I've been having a look at this myself,
(i am a noob when it comes to devolping apps)
but i was one first to get desire and there
was a command that you can run (without root)
to get the led to flash different colours length etc..
Tried this on the sensation and just get a file cannot be found.
(if you want to now the command then pm me or
il post it up not that it be much help)
so basically this means all existing apps with run on this old
command, so a new one will be needed when somebody figures
out the file name for the sensation led - then you can
just push a number to it using the echo command and itl work.
put into a java script and your done
wait so the notification light only lasts for 5 minutes? wtf?

The problem I'm having with NoLED is that I also use Handcent SMS and when you clear the NoLED notification screen it also closes the sms popup window. It's kind of annoying. A fix around that issue is the problem I'm having.
Just installed SMS Popup & it seems to have an option to repeat your reminder & can set an interval. It even turns on the screen which I missed!!!
Testing now.

Edit: yep, works perfectly. Only downside is you lose the awesome lockscreen feature of showing the envelope & text

Haha yes! And I've successfully converted a few others as well. I mainly use it because I can text via my work PC or my home PC. Texting with a full keyboard = a thousand times better
Plus saving on text messaging costs, and ease of porting number over yadda yadda
Anyway, I've been testing out NoLED today and it's a nice app but I don't like that it turns the entire screen on. Massive battery loss there.
Is there a better way?
from what I've read NoLED was made with an AMOLED screen in mind where black doesn't drain the battery because those LEDs are actually off
I've been using NoLED with Handcent. There is an option in NoLED that is Handcent specific that seems to keep the sms popup under the NoLED notification. Just unlock NoLED with the volume rocker and the popup window will remain open. Only downside is when the phone is on vibrate you will be constantly taking the phone out of vibrate mode to unlock NoLED to view sms popups. At that point you'd have to use the home or back key to unluck NoLED but it will dismiss the sms popup. So NoLED is ALMOST a nice fix. Gonna use it for now until something better comes along.

After going through all the app's options and menus extensively, I now have it set to disable the screen via the proximity sensor (ie if in my pocket etc).
Now I'm trying to use the Blink feature so if my phone is on a table or somewhere exposed, the screen isn't 100% on. Rather, it turns off/on periodically.
However, it seems the Blink feature doesn't work on the Sensation? When I get a notification, the screen never turns on.
If I disable blink, it works again right away (but then the screen is on 100% of the time when not in my pocket).
Anyone else experienced this?
First, I know there is NO notification LED on the Charge. I'm sure some of you are tired of requests and want to yell at me, and others want to say I told you so, there is a notification LED.
I want t see if there is an app that would allow the bottom hardware buttons to function as the notification LED. Similar to how the HTC Touch Pro 1 notifications worked (pulsing for e-mail, fade in/out for sms, etc...).
Any ideas?

there is a way to enable BLN (backlight notifications) but it must be done through some custom kernel work, which afaik right now is not possible since we don't have kernel source code to work with

Yea, I forgot to mention in my original post I've tried noLED. It worked fine except the whole power button thing was annoying. I had to turn the screen "on" with the home button (even though technically the screen is already on. The app said the power button feature is buggy). Again, this just goes to personal preference, and some people may not understand why I have trouble when it works for them, but I have my own preferences as that's just me. I don't like the screen bright at night, so I changed the icon colors, then I couldn't see the icons well during the day, so I had to change them back. I don't like that the icons flash around the screen (even though that's to get my attention - hence the whole purpose of the app), but it didn't completely suit my needs. It is a good app, and I'll continue to use it (I'll have to reinstall it), but my main problem is I couldn't configure it to show Google Voice notifications. I don't use sms, I only use Google Voice, and this didn't work as well. Same with the puzzle lockscreen; it doesn't show Google Voice notifications.
If you monitor google voice (in settings) it does show google voice notifications because I do it. The little google voice pops up.

Not completely true... We have the kernel source for Froyo. We (TeamGummyCharged) worked on BLN's for the charge but failed on first try.. The BLN also requires a binary for the lights one that is not compatible with the Charge.. Maybe after 2.0 is released and we have more time we will pick it up again by reaching out to the original dev for that project but at the moment it is shelved.

Hi all. In this Video the reviewer states that he isn't getting any notifications with the screen off. Also it is a problem for one of our members. Is anyone else having these hassles? Do you get incoming text, email AUDIO notifications without waking the phone?
Hi
I have no issue with notification at all..
Even when screen is off ..
U do have to active notification from each app setting and alow all permissins...
Also keep in maind to keep app running remove battery restriction from app setting also..
All will work normal
Working for me but I did need to grant WhatsApp and Trurcaller lots of permissions.
I even got True Edge installed for a visual way to get notified and that works brilliantly with the device asleep with screen off.
I was a bit surprised at the extra level of permissions needed. It's all gravy now, but I could see why a reviewer or somebody unaware would get caught out
But yes, I am getting notifications with the screen off in sound and visually, without having to wake the phone.
Indeed at first I wasn't getting any notifications but then I discovered you need to go into the app info and give permission for notifications and turn off battery saver.. now it works perfect and only for the apps I want
The video the OP posted is exactly whats happening to me. I have all the settings as described. Battery saver turned off and even when into each apps settings and allowed ALL permissions just to see if it would work. As the video says, notifications come, but you have to wake the device to see them, there is no sound or anything on screen until the device is woke. Exactly as the video describes. I do hope its fixed soon, I am back to using my Note 5 whilst my beautiful 10 Ultra sits in its box.

Have you undone your earlier modifications to the phone (copying files from phone to phone etc)?
You have two problems and the one to ignore for now is louder notifications. It's notifications at all.
It isn't something to fix from Xiaomi's view and it is always worth learning the software. I don't like it myself... It can be cloying etc.
But the default behaviour is to opt in to notifications. It's working as intended. That said look where we are, it's just your problems are a special case. No biggie, let's fix this!
You have an outstanding issue clouding this where you are trying to use unexplained files on the device (like seriously what format are they? Does it work in Music or anything? Have you tried removing them?)
Took a while but I get all my notifications now when screen is off, see 2vattached screen shots
Thanks all for answering my question! I think this is my last question before buying from Liaow.com, if the syncing isn't a constant problem. Does anyone have a major syncing problem as explained in this review? Once or twice a day I can deal with. I check the calendar throughout the day like most people. However if I get busy and forget, missing calendar events/alarms wouldn't work for me. I'd be forced to use my work iPhone<shudder> for calendar events lol.

How did you get the icons to show on the lock screen?
Mine doesn't. Quite annoying.
Also sometimes the lockscreen doesn't show me notifications even tho they are there.. :s
I have no issues with icons displaying while locked. You do need to enable them and ensure they start automatically and power control is turned off for the app. It has been much easier in the EU ROM for some reason.
Solution!
Here is the thing that helped me with the same notification issue! Just google "xiaomi mi 10 ultra notifications" and in the top 5 links you'll probably find an article from: theunpopulartraveller. It explains the settings, and they need to be accessed by pressing and holding the app icon ^ app info.
Don't give up, try and you'll get the sounds from needed apps back. And ye, actually now I find the way Xiaomi did it much more convenient: I just turned on notifications for 2 apps, and all the rest are silent, while previously I had to turn off all the rest of the apps (much more than 2, definitely) not to get disturbed by all the bull****.
EU Rom doesn't have the "importance" option at 30/31
Well after trying to update to 12.1.1 and seeing what a buggy heap of junk it was, I factory reset, installed 12.0.15, and formatted data. But now notifications don't work when the screen is off whatsoever, absolutely no notifications. Beautiful. I'm so sick of the software issues with this phone, I'm definitely never buying another Xiaomi phone at this point.

Disable adaptive notifications from setting. I dont know what google thinking when creating such feature.
it basically interrupt the whole notification process. Using so called Ai to decide, when to give you notifications or when not to. But most of the time it pick wrong decision and delay our notification altogether.
This is android feature since Q thus also causing problem on Pixel phone. On xiaomi seems like it suddenly got worse on Android 11

How did u manage to roll back to 12.0.15?
Get over to the EU ROM version. Lock screen notifications work fine.
Have you checked each notification that it has no battery optimisation set, also, check in notifications that each one has access to the lock screen. Since A11, notifications have been a pain but for some reason they do work much better on the EU ROM.

There are issues for Gpay and some banking / local safetynet apps for EU ROM which i do not wish to live with.
Somehow the props file in the eu rom causes those issues.
i am probably going to rollback to 12.0.15... now is the excruciating 160 hours wait for unlock.
You obviously don't follow the EU forums. GPay works, safeynet works and my UK bank works. But you also get everything plus more than the Chinese stock and all updates are based on both weekly and stable stock ROMs respectively.

i don't follow it to the tee, but i've seen some reports of some users not able to use gpay out of the stable roms.
that's why.. too much trouble.. i'll see what i can do when the unlock timer is up..
