Apologies if this has been asked before, but search did not bring up anything usefull :
Since I upgraded my N5 from KitKat (Purity) to Lollipop (Cataclysm) the notification LED no longer lights up while the phone is charging (neither by cable nor wireless). The LED however works correctly for notifications (Email & SMS).
I also tried installing & configuring Light Flow, but still no LED while charging.
Is this a known L bug ? Any workaround ?
No stock build for the nexus 5 has ever had charging led

Hi everyone,
Thanks to KarrdeNZ's well written guide, I managed to flash my rom to
********Hero ROM for Magic modded for TW users (based on Fatal1ty2787's releases)********

I just noticed that my phone's LED lights are missing. The LED doesnt light up while charging, and it doesnt light up when receiving SMS as well. I think the LEDs just disappeared completely.
Anyone encounters this and is there anyway to solve it?
Thanks!
Hero ROMS currently have the following issues
Bluetooth headset/mic support is broken, though Bluetooth headset playback works fine - no known solution.
TouchFLO sluggishness - don't use it or minimise widget use - especially clocks.
LEDs mapped incorrectly - no known solution.
Camera flipped/oriented wrong - need to reinstall old Camera package to fix

I got my sms led working, via chompsms.
Charging still doesn't work but tats not really.important I guess
Yeah you can use chompSMS or SMS popup to get the message notification LEDs working again.
Also the LED does work while charging, well sort of, it will turn green when it's 'charged' but won't glow orange like it used to whilst 'charging'.

Hello,
I've been using Nexus 5 since 2 weeks and I got an issue with the led.
Sometimes (actually 3 times) while the nexus is charging and I recieve a whatsapp, the led blinks forever and only solves if I reboot..
I don't know if this happens only with whatsapp and neither tried to use Light Flow instead native LED app.
Somebody got anything like this?
Thanks
The LED is inconsistent for sure. I'm using Light Manager and it seems to help, but it's still not perfect. Often I find there are just no notifications for various apps. A reboot seems to solve the issues. I've never had the issue with the light not stopping though, but I don't use WhatsApp.

if you are stock, i'd imagine there may still be a few apps out there that are not currently optimized for kitkat yet. check into that. cheers
Hi all!
Im currently using Lollipop 5.0 and I have some questions regarding the notification light...
Has anyone been able to light up the notification light while charging?
Also, when i receive whatsapps or an email, the light will only blink once and then turn off permanently.... am I the only one with these problems or did it change with 5.0?
Thanks for the answers and sorry for my bad English.
PD: I posted here and not in Question category since Im also concerned on the notification behavior and not only fixing whatsapp
+100000
Btw only Roms I've noticed that has it working is unofficial cm12 and liquid lollipop
My notification light doesn't come on at all for any notifications and it's definitely set to 'Pulse notification light' under the sound and notification menu.
This should help solve your problem. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koo.lightmanager
Ledblinker is better in my opinion and the dev has an N5 on 5.0

Download the factory image of Lollipop 5.01 and then Perform hard factory reset.
This particular bug has been fixed in 5.01 and I hope that works.
If you are not aware how to perform the factory image then visit the link below..

Dude why do you keep responding to threads from November last year? Need to bump your post count or something? It's most annoying

With whatsapp and email my notification light has been working normally.
Hey guys,
since upgrading to an Android Nougat custom firmware for my Nexus 5 (PureNexus) the behavior of notification lights changed (previously Android 6).
If I get a new message while the display is locked the lights start blinking. Now if I look onto the preview of the message, even extend it, and turn the display back off the lights start blinking again. (Happens on all apps, whatsapp, mails etc.) Pretty sure the lights didn't blink on Android 6.
Is this normal for Android 7 or is this a behaviour of my CFW? (The guys in the thread of the FW didn't answer and don't know anybody with an Android 7 phone).
Would anybody know a solution, didn't find anything in the settings.
Thanks.
Bump.
Bump.
Hi, I recently bought this phone, made all updates then a factory reset.
While testing everything is working correctly, I noticed that the LED didn't work with notifications, instead with a LED testing app the LED lightened up, so I guess the hardware is fine.
I enabled the LED under the display settings.
Currently I'm on android 10 firmware with all latest updates.
Has anyone had the same problem? How did you solve it?

I am using my ZF6 for 8.5 months now and I've never had a problem with notification LED. I started with A9 WW_16.1210.1904.116, now I have A10 WW_17.1810.2002.133.
Just now is LED green blinking because I have got a new SMS message in Messages app.

Hi, I just found that the blue led is not working and the telegram app uses that color for new messages. Any other app that doesn't need the B led works fine. So the LED is working as intended, but not as needed.

It is a pity that you did not mention in what application you have a problem or with what color you have a problem. It's not that blue doesn't work but we don't have it at all

ZF6 have not RGB LED, but rather just RG and it can be combined to show Orange/yellow. Same design as Zenfone 5
