Would love a way to flash the portion of CM6 to my rooted stock to disable the charging LED.
Right now I have to use LEDs Hack, which is very buggy, doesn't always turn on, doesn't always disable, forcing me to open it manually and cycle the LEDs to get the bottom LEDs to turn on/off.
It would just be a lot better if it never turned on the charging light and I would be happy.
My notification LED only blinks after I have hit the power button on the phone(unlocking it)...which is kind of useless because obviously when I tap the power I am accessing my phone therefore going to see the notifications displayed. Why is it that when my phone is locked/on standby that the LED notification doesn't blink right away until I wake it up and then lock it again? It is as if the phone went into some sleep mode and even calls,texts, and everything does not wake it up automatically.

I've got the same issue at some (random) times, where it doesn't start notifying until I check it myself. It sure seems like a *small issue*, but since it's there to help us out... well, it should be helping us out.
Hi there
I was trying to turn on camera flash to use it as flashlight. However, i can turn it on but unfortunately not turn it off completely.
Power Toggles and Notification App (paid one, can't remember the name exactly) seem to turn it on but not turn it off completely. I tried turning off using ADB but no help.
Any app or anything that is working for you ?
Please share
Try the "Tiny Flashlight" app's widget.
Also the Power Toggle for Flashlight from Clean n Tweaked ROM works for me
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aste.smallapp.flash And you can turn it off by pressing on the bulb.
When you press on the bulb for a little longer you can even turn on strobe mode.
Anyone experience these same bugs as me?
When plugging in my phone to charge, it does not reset the battery stats, ie the phone will show it's charging but battery settings screen will show "X hrs X mins X sec on battery" (see photo).
Sometimes when my phone is on silent or vibrate only, pressing the volume up button will launch the on-screen volume indicator which will show volume as being increased, yet the silent icon will stay in the notification shade and the volume does not actually increase.
The only way I can get my phone off silent is to reboot it!
I am not sure if there's a correlation, but I only noticed these two bugs since I enable the ART runtime.
That's normal with every Android phone. The battery stats will not reset until level reaches 95 or 96% I can't remember the exact percentage.

Has anyone else notice that their M8 is noticeably less responsive when the battery gets low (usually under 15%)? I am aware that the Verizon model does not have the extreme power saving mode feature; however, I noticed something funny. When the battery is low and I go into developer options to turn on high performance mode, it lets me know that I cannot due to power saver being on (see screenshot). When the phone's battery is not low, I do not see this message and I can enable high performance mode. My guess is that the phone is entering some sort of power saving mode automatically when the battery gets low because I notice that it lasts quite long on low battery and is less snappy.
Fast start to finish here. But I'm running custom so.

Can anyone else on stock replicate this issue or did I just get a defective M8? Thanks!

It honestly sounds like power saving mode is kicking in. Which does at 15% on stock if power saving mode is enabled ( not extreme power saving mode just the standard one)
If something weird is going on and it is not providing you with a notification that it is what's happening, next time it happens look at /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/scaling_max_freq if it's at 2265600 then it's not in power saving mode, however if it's at 1190400 then power saver is on. Other signs of power saving mode would "normally" be
Display brightness reduced
Cpu reduced speeds
Vibration feedback turned off
*data connection put to sleep when screen off
Edit:
Turned my power saving mode on and I also can not turn on high performance mode. So I bet that is EXACTLY what's going on.
last edit,
if you have root you can launch the power saving settings ( even tho the option is not there under the power sub menu vzw left all the code in)
to do this from terminal emulator at # am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.htc.htcpowermanager/com.htc.htcpowermanager.powersaver.PowerSaverActivity
this will launch the settings for power saving mode, and from here you can see if it is set to on, if so just turn it back off.

Thanks for the reply, I agree with you on that one, I'm pretty sure power saving mode is being turned on somehow. I'm not rooted and on stock, so I don't have a toggle for power saver mode. Any idea how it could have turned itself on? Aside from rooting, is there anything short of a factory reset that I can do to get rid of it?

Well I would first ask if any of the things I said happen when you phone goes below 15% such as
Display brightness reduced
Cpu reduced speeds
Vibration feedback turned off
*data connection put to sleep when screen off
Some of these you can check without root. Like the screen gets dim or the vibration turns off. If so then let me know.
Theoretically a factory reset would clear it. However you could try to clear data from the settings app.

+1 on Power Save coming on.....I am on Viper so I see it is turned on at 15% with the quick settings, so I tap it to turn it off (which I know there isn't a stock equivalent)....but when it is on...the phone slows like a turd.
