[Q - SOLVED] Serendipity 5.7 SMS Problem? [Mod Please Close!]

Don't know if it is a problem or what but when receiving a new text, the screen does not light up but rather just vibrates, make noise, and have the buttons lit up.
Is this a problem or is it a setting I can adjust so the screen lights up as well?

The AOSP mms app doesn't turn on the screen when messages are received (on this ROM). But you can probably try using something like SMS pop up to have the screen turn on and quick reply if you want. I haven't tried that myself, though.

Anyway to change that?

SMS popup is definitely the way to go. allows you to use your preferred messaging app but gives you awesome functionality with the popup notifications. and quick reply is the best.

I want the screen to light up though, not the bottom button lights to go away. But good to know!

if you use the samsung mms.apk provided on the serendipity website, the screen will light up upon receiving a text message.

[Q] LED flashes green at start up?

I'm using SCv5 update2, everything was normal till yesterday, when my Atrix 2 booted up, after turning off the screen, the LED notification automatically flashed green light with no reason
Then I found a temporary solution: change auto brightness or ring style, but at the next start up, it happens again >"<

Nandroid restored sv5.2, install zip stock theme, Titanium Backup restore app and data, the problem was gone.
But still don't know what caused the LED problem =))))

Led notification function on Atrix 2 is sucks...
Just for missed calls, unread mess and ... no more. Any Led controlling softwares can't use.
I've installed Viber and sometime red led is on, maybe Viber checks sthing on server and makes notices for user. I don't know for sure.

It's not the A2's fault...
SC comes preloaded with the app "Light Flow" which allows you to customize the notification LED's colors and when it flashes, etc. I had no use for it and I did notice the LED light misbehaving... after an uninstallation all LED light problems were gone.

[Q] Notification LED suddenly stopped working as it should

All of a sudden the notification LED as stopped blinking whenever I receive a whatsapp message or even a facebook notification.
To check whether the link was damaged itself,I installed light flow and after setting a specific non-white color for an activity , it just blinks with a somewhat-white light.
What exactly is the problem ?
Just performed the LED Test using Light Flow and these were the colors I saw
white
red
pink
purple
blue
LED seems to be working..then is this some 4.4.2 bug ?

Have you tried rebooting? I know it's a silly question but I've had a few instances where the LED doesnt notify me and a reboot solves the issue. It's not a persistent thing tho so it doesnt bother me. I tend to reboot my phone at least 2 times a day

Thanks for the response!
The problem was linked with Hangouts app. After it was updated,all LED notifications stopped working so I cleared its data. Now everything is fine

[Q] Disable S6 LED Charging Light

Does anyone know how to disable the red charging light on the S6 edge? I don't want to turn off LED notifications all together, just don't want that bright red charging light.

Try accessibility settings and turn on notification reminders I think that disabled the charging status.

Kind of a hacky work around but it totally works. Unfortunately I don't actually want notification reminders from all those other apps so I had to go through and turn them all off. Thank you!

Otherwise, just use Light Flow. It's great and let's you customize what colour each app has etc.

I was considering that but wasn't sure if LightFlow was working yet with the S6. Can anyone confirm that it does?

Sometimes the notifications would stay and not reset for mine on Telus. I'm using light manager and it's working great. I can't believe the lack of control for the LED on this phone...

I think he needs to push an update

Light Manager works for everything but charging status. I have contacts changed, call color changed, but for some damn reason the charging setting won't stick

Light flow actually works for charging status as well. I've set a red light with a custom interval of 50,10000. Basically keeps the light off.

I can't seem to fix this problem. None of the apps suggested here will turn off the stupid red light and the fix with notification reminder doesn't turn off the red light either. The only way I've found to get rid of the red light is to completely turn off the led light which isn't really a solution.

I have LightFlow installed and deleted the notification for charging. This made my light turn off when it's plugged in. If that doesn't work maybe set the notification, but set LED to off?

I used Light Manager. I hated both the charging and charged function. I Enabled the LED for both. Go to the Color selection and make a custom color. When you go back out to the HEX code selection, type in all Zeros. Should be Black. Save and test. Should make it go all quite.

I have the exact opposite situation: I would like to turn off all notifications LEDS but have the charge red/charged green light on (on my S6). I'm using Light Flow, is there an easy way to do this without manually setting it up for each individual app?

I came to the same solution as ChroniclesOfRedick:
Setting a custom color with 0x000000 and Priorty Low for the Charged Battery ist the trick with Light Manager!
Works with galaxy S7 and Android 7.

LED notifications

Anybody tried LightFlow or any other apps to control the notification LED?

They work if that's what you're asking. Light Flow and Light Manager are the two I tested. Definitely prefer LF of the two.

Light manager seems to work for sms but not email. Always on also does not show email notifications. Arg!

No. The email does not show at all for me. Only sms and missed calls.

LightFlow is not working for me. Did you enable the LED in the display settings and did you enable or disable the workaround for Samsung?

I have been emailing the dev for light manager. in order to get it to work, you need to turn on the 5.1 workaround in the apps settings and you have to let it wake the screen for notifications. then the led colors work correctly. one thing that does break is you can not longer expand the gmail notifications in the notification pull down shade. he said he doesn't have an S7 yet to test on but is getting one.

LED Blinker Work correctly

I didn't install light manager yet. I'm just using signal for SMS and changing color of LED in its settings. inbox is blue and I guess missed calls would be the same blue default. Works for now. Also charging is red by default and green I think when charged...

LED Blinker Work

Yes LED Blinker works. I have tested under S7. And many customers told me, too.
Just enable workaround 5.1.1 in app settings (its needed for Android 6, too sadly).

Same here. (With Light Manager) So it seems to be a hardware/model related issue.

Needed screen on for me too (for Gmail at least, some apps worked okay - Handcent/Whatsapp). Which I didn't really want to use but it's better than nothing at this stage.
Ah, sorry, it's Light Manager I used - I was trying a few and got confused!

Ok then what now? Do we return it to samsung and ask for a good one or just live with it??

LED Blinker works, but has the same problem that all of the other LED notification programs have....The Gmail notification icon in the status bar will not auto clear after reading email. It must be cleared manually. Light Manager does the same thing, and according to the developer, it is an issue with Android 6.0

you have to disable the light/led in all apps you use, gmail doesnt have such option, use google inbox instead.

Thanks, but I use Google Apps, with multiple email accounts, so Google Inbox really doesn't work well for my use.
