Mine works. Whenever I get a message, email, facebook notification, etc...
Did you enable it? Settings > Display > Pulse Notification Light
The only thing I miss from my S3 is that the Nexus 5 will not light up when plugged into the charger. Red for charging, green for done.

Use Ledblinker app and you can add those functions in as well as choose colours for any app notification

Notification LED?

I'm assuming the nexus 5 has one, but I haven't seen what it looks like or where it's located while watching some YouTube hands on videos...
Does anyone know or have a have a pic of what it looks like/where it's located?

The notification light is at the bottom of the phone in the middle.

use an app like Lightflow to set up different coloured light notifications for different apps.. eg Facebook message will flash blue, sms is white etc.
I've yet to see my LED flash for any reason whatsoever

Blinks every 10 seconds by default, useless. Use lightflow to control it with your apps
Mine only blinks sometimes with texts emails and so on. I know it's 10 second intervals but someone's it did nothing at all

[Req] Battery LED

Hello. I need an app to monitor my battery status. I found some apps but old ( not working ). I need an app that will make the LED blink green at 100-50℅, 50-20℅ yellow and 20-0℅ red.
If someone has something like this or if someone can build one I'll be happy.

With lite flow you can change the threshold for when it thinks it has low or full battery.
Why not set a threshold from 95%-40% as green, 40%-20% orange?
Then it will pulse red when it's below 20.

Disable screen from coming on when I get a text?

Is there a way to dismiss the screen from coming on when I get a notification? I just want the led light to come on.

Use Textra. It's way better than the stock app.

It's not just the texting app though. Snapchat for example does it do. So does hangouts.

Yeah you disable all notification to offer under settings
There is no way to just get a led flash that I know of
