My led indicator changes colors on its own, some hours of the day, it will be green for all my notifications, some hours it will be blue, some will be red. Does anyone else have this issue? I do not have a led app, but am seriously thinking of getting just to keep some consistency.
Thanks
Jon

What i have noticed is the LED indicator changes color depending on what notification it is. For example I never set any color notifications but for google+ its an orange/yellow. And Facebook is blue.
Thats the funny thing, it doesnt. All the notifications are the same, but they change. Like i said, for one hour, Gmail could be red, then its green, then its something else. Its totally ghostbusterish. Ive read that there are issues with the the LED on the US models.

thanks for the link to light flow.
although i am not using a led app, and the color changes by itself. so i am confused why you sent me this.

There are multiple problems with the LED on the S3.

Can it be that you have multiple notifications? For example you have a gmail notification thats red and you do not check...soon after you get a facebook notification and the LED changes color due to overwriting the gmail notification. I guess what I am trying to say is the most recent notification will change the LED light can be a possibility.

I know that some Mms programs let you change the notification light to blue, but is there a way (maybe in framework.res) that let's you change all notifications to blue? I'm playing around with my own personal theme that matches the motorala gingerblur blue.
Try Blink. It's another app, but I'm fairly certain that it can change all notifications.
I'll check it out, thanks.
Not sure if this thread is dead or not but I have personally been using lightflow (free app in market) and I can change my status led to virtually any color and I have diff colors for diff notifications i.e. green for gmail, blue for gvoice, red for missed call, purple for normal txt etc... It's really nice to know what notification I've missed just by looking at color of status light instead of turning on screen just to see it was a gmail.

I'm don't particularly care for the green LED notification for missed calls, etc. On my DesireHD I used an app LED Me Know that let me change the color or the notification LED as well as the frequency of the flash. LED Me Know won't work on a rooted Sensation, are there any other alternatives that let you change the color of the LED? Thanks

As of now, there are no other solutions for you. As a reminder all you have is Green and Amber. Rumours of red are floating, but Green and Amber are your two LED choices. You are stuck until a good mod comes around.
Gone are the days of the RGB LEDs. :-(

Well, if you flash amber and green at the same time, you get orange/yellow color. So we could say we have 3 colors
Swyped from my HTC Sensation
I would be OK with amber notifications, it shows up much better than green to me, and I would like to be able to increase the frequency of the flashes but it looks like I'll have to wait .
Is this possible using an app? Will MS allow such apps in the store? I want to get notification lights with custom colors when I have new SMS, missed calls, etc. and not just when charging.
The 8x doesn't have an RGB LED, so only the amber and green are available, and can't be changed

Meh. Thanks.
Still hoping that MS will implement this feature at some point in time. Its what I loved on my Nexus while at work where I just needed a quick glance at the led to know whats going on. Even a simple blinking green light would suffice for notifications really.
Are you sure about this? I don't think so that they're using a RED and a GREEN LED. It's easier to use an RGB LED.
I hope so, and the vibrate function isnt the best, would like for messages it had short burst vibrations. I'm just used to android since I was using it for 3 years!
Can someone please try an app such as LedBlinker and report whether the Idol 3 has an RGB notification LED that can be configured to show any color ? Photos of the phone showing the notification light would be great too!
+1. Was gonna ask the same question.
no it does not i tried it

You cannot use it for notifications even with white color? I read in at least 2 places that it has an LED. Did you try both Led Blinker and Light Flow ?

Notification LED works right out the box - without any additional apps. However, it is not colored.

Actually, on Nexus devices it also works out of the box, but additional apps help to tailor it for what you need, like missed calls, and 3rd party email clients. So I was wondering if LedBlinker works with this phone, even if the LED lights only white. BTW LedBlinker has a customization to make the LED blink faster or slower.
so sad... :crying:
Still buying it, but... better than no led at all I guess
I just bought the S7 couple weeks ago and something i have noticed is that it doesn't have White LED Notification, whenever i get a Whatsapp message my LED ntification is purple not white, i tried LED Tester on Google Play and the white notification is little purple, it's not pure white, kinda like viber but a bit lighter
so is this normal or do i have to go to warranty center?

Normal, bro.

It will be purplish instead of white.
