[Q] Notification LED - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Already noted that the LED notification seems a small screen?
would not it be possible to display small pictures in it?
or is it a stupid idea?

Can't figure out what you're asking. The notification LED is not part of the screen

I know it's not part of the screen
but he seems to be a small screen

No, it's an LED. The clue is in the name.

HTC Notification Light

Hi.
Just got my Sensation today and have been setting it up etc. In all the excitement, I didn't notice until now, the notification light on my handset flashes behind the speaker, next to the front camera. Am I correct in thinking that the circle on the left of the speaker is the notification light and that's what should be flashing (when charging, message received etc)?
Faulty handset?

Nope. If you check the manual, that circle on the left is the light sensor and there is one in the screen under that one, that's the proximity sensor.

Black Screen on Motorola Droid 2 Global

Hi,
My Motorola droid 2 global is black screen on my droid. I can receive calls, I get email as I hear the notifications, the screen reacts to touch as it vibrated when I drag across the area where the unlock slider is.
When i was playing with it, I noticed that under very bright light I can see the screen. I managed to take few screenshot, which automatically loaded to my picasa, and when when I opened them,. the screen, with all the icons was visible.
Has my LCD display gone bad? But, i was buy lcd to replace them,
I've tried to solve the issue with a battery pull, reser, restart etc but nothing seems to work. I also played with the brightness setting under a very bright light and nothing happened.
Please help
Seems like a hard ware issue. Did you rsd to complete stock? I would try that as the last thing if not already done and if it's still black it's hardware related.

[Q] AOKP LED Control

Hello all. I am using the latest AOKP on my S3. I had previously used it on my Galaxy Nexus and the LED Control worked great. But i can't get any LED notifications at all on my S3. The only time the LED comes on is when i have an incoming call, which isn't a setting that I have anyway. Does anyone know if there is a setting somewhere that i'm missing that is turning off the LED notifications? Or does it just not work on the S3? The stock rom LED notifications worked.
Just came to my mind, on the Nexus i was using the last milestone build and on the S3 I have the latest nightly build. But that shouldn't be the cause.
Any ideas? Light Flow, light manager also provide no LED notifications.
Thanks
Go to setttings->display->pulse led notification (or something like that)

haha, that did it...thanks.
btw, the LED quality is much poorer on the S3 than on the GNexus. Light what is supposed to be orange is mostly green, a spec of orange. other users have same result?

Yes. Its because of the led that's used. They used 3 different LEDs instead of one multi colored one. So when you're using a custom color, its a mixed rgb color.

Notification Led diode

Hi guys!
Iam having a problem with notification led diode. It doesnt work. I havent seen the light yet.
I just tried Light Flow app but it also wasnt able to light the led up.
So i assume that my phone is broken in that part and the diode just doesnt work on my Nexus 5.
Does anyone have some the same problem?

Figured it would be but had to ask. Factory reset as a last resort maybe?

I installed Light Flow. Took a few minutes before I got any lights.
There's a test mode in light flow. Might be worth trying that too.

Test mode in LF didn't work for me. I was going to uninstall but then I noticed the battery charging light came on. Now all of the programmed lights in LF work for me. I have not retried the test light feature.
light flow might have just glitched up the led for a bit. If it stops working again, try clearing app data, or reinstall, or uninstall light flow altogether. It has been known to have some issues.
In light flow you have to turn off the screen after turning on test mode, if you haven't tried that already.

Yes, the screen MUST be off for the notification light to illuminate. In addition, at least for Light Flow, it can take several seconds for the notifications to light up, even when performing a test.
Same problem here and it's going to back for a refund. It was actually a replacement unit for the first one which had speaker issues.
I tried everything and never saw the light come on once while the first unit worked fine with the same settings.

[Q] Faulty flash LED?

I just noticed, I was using my phone as a flashlight for a few seconds, and I noticed a target shaped ring made by the light.
Have I never seen this before or us everyone's like this?
Point your light at a blank wall in the dark. Is it smooth light or tree-ring looking?

I think that's normal. Mine appears the same.
