so i just bought my wife a photon q and updated it for her and got it all set up, the only problem is when it is plugged in there is no Indicator LED on. is this normal does it have an LED that says hey ima chargin?
No, the LED does not normally indicate charging.
Use an app like LightFlow Lite to change how the LED behaves.
so with i have the evo lte and that phone has a led light on it that shows its charging or fully charged. The photon has no such indicator?
It does, the LED bar is hidden along the top of the speaker grill. If you want it to stay lit or whatever while charging/when charged, you'll need to use light flow or an equivalent app.

no by default there is no indicating light while charging. just need to make sure, cuz was about to return/exchange the phone. i know the led works cuz when there is a text or vm it flashes but nothing while charging
Yeah that's normal behavior. The LED doesn't indicate charging or full charge status stock. It only flashes red when the battery is low.
awesome, now to say buh bye to system apps ty guys for your responses

I found a way to enable the lights, maybe helps.
decompile framework-res.apk
path framework-res\res\values
file: bools.xml
Line for charging LED:
<bool name="config_support_charging_LED">true</bool>
Line for notification LED:
<bool name="config_intrusiveNotificationLed">true</bool>
recompile and so on...install framework-res.apk.
I made this modifications and it works great for me.

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 .
Finally picked up my Q today, and have it all set up nice and perfect.
But.
Does the LED only work with the screen off? Currently I'm using Light Flow for my notification/charging settings, and it only works with the screen off, and I'd like it if it worked with the screen on too.
Also, for others using Light Flow, it seems we are unable to get an actual orange color? Orange and deep orange appear yellow.

It seems Light Flow only works with screen off. The only notification that works with screen on is the built-in low battery indicator. (Which flashes red.)
Hello, I am using Tasker on the Omega rom v16 and I just want to know if there is a way I can get rid of the charging led light. In fact, I want to use Tasker to perform some task with the led light with screen off and sometime when the screen is off and the device is charging (or charged), the led is turned on to indicate the charging status. Therefore, in this situation, if I want tasker to turn on the led light (with another color and for another purpose) when the led is on for charging purpose, there will be a conflict. Thus, I just when to know if there is a way I can turn the device charging led off. Thanks.
I dont why?? But all of a sudden my LED notification light has stopped pulsing on notifications....
And now it remains constantly on when an notification arrives and does not blink as usual...
I even checked the red LED by turning it on but found the same for it....
But during the low battery state(i.e. below 15%) the red LED can blink.....
So i guess therez a prob with "sys/devices/platform/leds-mt65xx/leds/green/trigger" file...
So if therez anyone who can tell me how to edit it back to normal or anyone who can give me the original files so that i can replace them!!!!
Thanks in Advance!!!
Don't know about anyone else, but the one thing that really bugs me is the REALLY small, orange LED light HIDDEN behind the grill that indicates the phone is being charged! You can't see it in bright light and you have to hold your phone at a certain angle to even see it at all!!!
Anybody run across a settings change or an app or a hack that will allow you to use your notification light as an indicator that the phone is charging???
Thanks!
