Light flow still NOT working after root? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Finally took the plunge and rooted, only to find out its still not working. All the colors are still backwards. I read the blog on light flow's site and I'm very thankful of all the hard work they are doing. But they still made the point that it works for rooted users. I'm rooted and my colors are still all out of whack. Is there something I'm missing or what.

Have you disabled the leds in settings? This seems to be a needed step if you go to settings then led when uncheck all those and see if that helps

thanks, that did it! Also I didn't realize there was a specific setting under "Settings" that I had to enable for our US SGS3.

Everything is working fine for me except MMS. I'm using Go SMS and the MMS notification light won't work for some reason. SMS works fine though. Anyone else have similar issues?

Go into settings of GoSms, then go to receive settings. Uncheck "disable other message notification".

LED notifications in cyanogen v6 (froyo)

I can't seem to get LED notifications working in cyanogens mod..I'm using Handcent and when I go to set up the notifications for it, I click on flash LED but when I go to test it, it doesn't work..anyone know a solution to this?
Thanks

Oh, that's interesting. I think I have a similar issue, but I'm using a nightly from 9/8. I get text LED's, but not e-mail when using K9, unless there's an option in K9 that turns these on/off. FYI, I'm not using handcent.

I get my LED notifications using the AOSP MMS but I can't speak for thrid party apps... double check your system settings (not just the app settings)
Darch rebuilt the LED programming (or so he said) so I don't know. Mine will light up solid, but will not flash. Kinda frustrating, but small potatoes in the large scheme I guess.
My phone also doesnt show the notification LED. I miss having the green LED blinking when I have a missed call or text. Hopefully they can fix this issue.
Ok not to be an ass but do u not read ANY RULES? and yea caps bcuz u guys don't read. This is not Q&A section. There is a huge STICKY THREAD IN ALL CAPS saying this.
Like I said sorry to be like this but the forums are getting overun by posts in the wrong section or just didn't bother searching.

Have you guys gone into handcents settings and changed the LED light to green or orange? I had the same problem but found that the LED was defaulted to a color that our LEDs dont have. Check it and see if it helps.

i went into the cm6 settings and setup the led notifications and i went in to each app and did the same and my led still wont blink. it comes on for charging, also it blinks when i test it in the cm6 settings.

Ditto. I asked in the Testing for Hero thread if anyone else was having the same problem last week and got no reply. Running 9/6 nightly.
LED won't blink/flash when a message, email, or missed call is received.
What part of " PLEASE POST "Questions" and "Non ROM developement" THEADS IN THE CORRECT FORUMS" did you not understand? I'm so tired of seeing questions clogging up the dev forum, it's getting ridiculous
Agreed...he isn't new either so either he is just stupid or doesn't pay attention at all.

[LED] CM6 Led Settings Enabled CMParts.apk

http://android.erley.org/CMParts.apk
I've recompiled CMParts from git to enable support for changing the LED Notifications. Just download and install.
Before people go complaining, yes 90% of the settings don't work, and will never work on our phones. That's due to hardware limitations, not software issues. This is here for those that missed that working 10%. Will update with each new CM6 release, as long as I have a hero (being divested to AT&T).

Supposedly? Maybe? It's uninstallable so it wouldn't hurt to try and report back. I built it trying to solve a different issue, that it didn't solve. I figured it might be useful to others (especially those that used this in the nightlies when it was enabled).
okay so maybe i am having a brain fart but how in the hell do you install this i tried doing it from recovery but that didnt work so did i miss something i cant do it from in the phone as well ????

I don't think the trackball notifications will work with this, those are still locked. But this will let you change the LED notification settings (color, etc.)
Maybe in the OP we should put a list of working colors, although as far as I know it's just green and orange.

So would that .apk work with CM 6.1? I am still getting a solid color when my notification lights go off, even when I pick the blink frequency within handscent.
Thanks in advance for any help!

LED notification and brightness for stock 2.3.4?

On the new stock 2.3.4 that was just released, there are 2 features I miss greatly.. one is the dimming of the led lights.. and the other is using them as a notification. Has anyone found an app that works? I did find 1 notification app but from what I read, it sucks the battery down cuz it flashes.. can't do a steady light.
Thanks !
Did you try LG Touch LED Notification? It has steady light option.

Try LG Optimus 2x Touch Key Lights. That really works to adjust to light level of these touch keys =)

There's a link in the thread I started about the application for notification toggles in this sub-forum. As to your question about the text things. Your phone lights up while you're texting? That's kind of normal don't you think. The screen coming on when the text comes in is a stock messaging thing. Nothing that can be done except installing a custom messaging application, as far as I know, I like that it lights up.

ha, not while i'm texting... duh, the screen would need to be on for that, haha. When I receive a text, the screen turns on. The other day I was txting with a friend then I got into the middle of something and she sent another 5txts.. and the screen kept turning on. Pretty wasteful on the battery..

[Q] Lock screen unlocks just by tapping

I was wondering if anyone has come across this before. Instead of having to slide to unlock I can touch the screen anywhere and it simply unlocks the phone. I want to have to slide to unlock. I have not installed any kind of 3rd party lock screen app. I have the HTC One. I do have a custom ROM but I have not altered any of the lock screen settings.
Thanks for the help all!
Cheers

Unfortunately not. Still searching the web and hoping someone on these forums has a solution. If I do manage to find a fix, I'll post it here. Please do the same
Can't find anything on the web. Funny enough everything out there explains how to make this work via apps. I know this problem has nothing to do with an app.
Fixed it.
For me it was the pebble app. I turned off it's accesability option.
Check accessability on you phone under settings, see if anything is enabled that could be causing it. Worth a shot. Worked for me.

Are you running a custom ROM or still on stock?

I posted a similar question myself and was redirected here. I had Tasker and Pebble in the accessibility menu and my slide to unlock became touch to unlock. It would be nice to know why the apps dont play because now I have to choose between having Pebble and Pebble notifier send stuff to my watch, or actually having slide to unlock...

Definitely would like an explanation as well if someone out there has one.
No idea why an app could cause the lock screen to completely misbehave like that.
Can't find anything online either.

Light flow HELP ME

Why am I having so much trouble getting light flow to work? I just had it working fine on my galaxy Nexus so I definitely know how to set it up but no matter what I do it won't work.
Are there any special settings I need to turn on or off?

Make sure Light flow is checked in accessibility settings. So currently, having an "always on" notification for any one setting will mess with the other settings. Dev is working on a fix. other than that it should be working.
What exactly is happening on your end, you didn't give a lot of detail?

You should be starting to get the update now. I've done a workaround for always on as the LG drivers just don't accept it. I'd class the "always on " option for the Nexus 5 as being "almost always on"
Updated the app now, will see how it goes
I still seem to be getting notification light illuminated after the notification has been read.
Addmitedly I don't have it running as a foreground service.
Anyone know of a way to get rid of the lightflow notification in the pull down shade? I like to keep that area clean for notifications. I know other apps offer an option to disable that notification.
