Notification LED not working anymore - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I don't know why but it seems that overnight my notification led stopped working. No more lighting up at incoming messages or while charging. But it is not broken since it still lights up during boot.
I used Galaxy button lights to disable the button lights. Then I removed this app because I thought it affects the notification led in any way. After that I even rebooted my device and now the button lights don't work aswell.
Edit: have both working again. But still don't know what was causing this. I also tried LED blinker led control to test the light. When it was installed the led wasn't working but without the app it does again. Maybe because the app needs access to the notifications.
The button lights work aswell. Just reinstalled Galaxy button lights, re-enabled the button lights and deleted the app again.
Both these solutions doesn't make any sense.

Notification LED not blinking when it should?

My notification LED only blinks after I have hit the power button on the phone(unlocking it)...which is kind of useless because obviously when I tap the power I am accessing my phone therefore going to see the notifications displayed. Why is it that when my phone is locked/on standby that the LED notification doesn't blink right away until I wake it up and then lock it again? It is as if the phone went into some sleep mode and even calls,texts, and everything does not wake it up automatically.

I've got the same issue at some (random) times, where it doesn't start notifying until I check it myself. It sure seems like a *small issue*, but since it's there to help us out... well, it should be helping us out.

Flash light xperia l not turning off

Hi there
I was trying to turn on camera flash to use it as flashlight. However, i can turn it on but unfortunately not turn it off completely.
Power Toggles and Notification App (paid one, can't remember the name exactly) seem to turn it on but not turn it off completely. I tried turning off using ADB but no help.
Any app or anything that is working for you ?
Please share
Try the "Tiny Flashlight" app's widget.
Also the Power Toggle for Flashlight from Clean n Tweaked ROM works for me

When you press on the bulb for a little longer you can even turn on strobe mode.

[APP] Has anyone gotten Always On Edge reminder lights to work on their Pixel 3a?

The thread title pretty much sums it up. I am wondering if anyone who is using the app Always on Edge (AOE) for their notifications has gotten the reminder lights to work on their Pixel 3a. If so, what combination of settings did the trick? I can get the lights to trigger when the notification first comes in, but they never appear again. I have tried all varieties of the AOD being on, off, on with notifications only, etc., with no luck.
It seems to be working for me. I checked "when a notification comes" and "lighting for 8 seconds every 30 seconds" right below.
This app is what I was looking for to replace LED notifications, I'm currently testing it but it seems pretty well made and with lots of options.

Do the reminders still trigger if the screen wakes - either from the notification itself, or because you manually woke it up?
What do you mean? Right now if I receive a notification, the edge lights up for 8 seconds, turns off, then lights up again after 30 seconds and so on.
If I get to the lockscreen by touching the screen or pressing the power button and then let it turn off again, the reminder won't show up anymore. I guess this is intended, if you wake the screen, presumably you have seen the notification and you don't need to be reminded anymore.

Okay, this is consistent with what I noticed. Even if you don't wake up the screen yourself, if you have it set up where incoming notifications wake the screen temporarily, you don't get the reminder lights. Or even if you had the screen on already, walked away, and got a new notification before the screen had a chance to dim. I think an update is coming soon to fix this. But glad to hear it's not just me.
