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?

Sorry I was typing from my phone so just wanted to keep it basic.
You answered my question, all my notifications had been set to always on.
Thank you!

No prob. I emailed the dev, he says he is working on a fox, so it shouldn't be too long now.

Because the phone is less than a week old and people/dev's are just staring to get them so nexus 5 isn't even compatible yet . lightflow dev don't **** around, just give him a sec .... Development isn't magic takes time

I've been using lightflow since my OG Droid so I know how good the dev is.

Yeah for sure. The main reason I thought I was doing something wrong was because Droid life posted an article that gave me the impression the "always on" was working.

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.

Uncheck the option that is "Run as foreground service" or similar.

So after days and days of testing, trying and testing some more, with some tests working and some not, I had almost decided to give up on this. It seems that the code is loaded in lots of places and works itself back in over time even when it does work.
Little did I know that Sammy did something right for a change.
*#3844228#
Enter this code into your phone and a screen will come up with the option to disable Full battery Popup.
Gee, why couldn't we have found this two months ago.
---EDIT
If you flashed the original package, flash the undo package. This might help for those of you that the code isn't working.
Awesome, thanks phidelt!

Not frustrated at all. Relieved actually now that I saw how much code was going to have to be ripped out. It's tied into the lock screen which is why it worked sometimes and not others. I'm just glad I ran across that code. It was lumped in with a bunch of test codes. Most did nothing at all, probably because they were for the i9000. Anyway, back to the grind.

That's really odd. A lot don't work for our phone but this one should.
BTW, did you see your present?
Entering the code works on my phone. I get the FullbatPopup checkbox. I checked it. Rebooted (just wanted to see if the selection stuck - it did).
Charged my phone last night - saw the popup at 3:00 in the morning.

No idea if this is a ICS custom rom thing, but I remember it happened on stock as well.
When trying to install an .apk from sdcard (sideloading), I get the PackageInstaller confirmation window. Sometimes the right side where the OK button is, is non responsive (left side on Cancel can be clicked). After some trying, it works. Now, I have no idea what causes this, but it's ****ing annoying and seriously makes me want to throw the phone up the wall.
Anyone else noticed this ?
Did you enable installation from Unknown sources?

I'm the developer of Lux. PackageInstaller shouldn't have any issues with Lux installed provided you haven't turned off 'compatibility mode' in settings.

I tried uninstalling Lux and responsiveness was suddenly back, it recognized the touch everytime.
Compatibility is on -> screenshots
When I restored Lux back again, the responsiveness went back to nonconsistant, sometimes it works fine, mostly it ignores the touch.

You might have to wait a couple of seconds before Lux disables itself. Lux needs to poll to check the current foreground app and disable itself. It polls every 3 seconds, unless it has detected the same app a few times in a row, in which it slows polling down to 9 seconds.

No problem. I wish there was a cleaner solution, but alas the Android API doesn't provide an intent which warns apps that a secure view is being shown.
Really Android should be drawing secure fields above everything else, rather than disabling the view - whoever thought that was a good idea isn't very intelligent.
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.

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.

Not sure if I just haven't found the option yet but can we extend how long the notification light blinks after a missed call,text etc? It seems like it may only flash for 5 or 10 minutes. I know it seems like not that big of a deal but I would like to know a way to change it. I'm dispatched for work through text so not having to constantly pick up my phone to see if I have a missed call or text would be ideal. Thanks in advance!

Well after some more homework it sounds like this has been going on for a lot of HTC phones. This is my first one.Is there an app or something that can bypass this 5 minute timeout? I'm assuming it's probably something I would have to be rooted for since apps like liteflow don't seem to work. Any help is appreciated.

Light Flow has a "HTC alternative direct mode", and it states "Phones such as the latest HTC One control the LED differently when running in Direct Mode. This option should enable flashing the LED." Granted... I am unsure if you need root for that option. Same with Direct Mode. Only option I am sure that needs Root is, well, Root mode, lol.
Sadly this is all I can think of that might help you, sorry.
