im using stock rom light manager for notifications, and have it checked so every notification lights up the screen.
the problem is when the screen starts dimming in a minute, just before locking and letting the LED kick in, it wakes the phone up back to a fully lit up lock screen...and the cycle always continues until I lock manually with finger.
any help????

Check your settings in light manager, make sure there is no notifications pending in there, any you have say read from the lock screen which doesn't appear in my experience clear these as read. Once in a while I have to go in and cancel the notifications (lightflow) is what I use, although I just use to to illuminate the led's not the screen (otherwise my battery would be flat in half a day)

Quite frequently when I hit the red button the screen goes off and then instantly comes back on. If I repeatedly hit the red button it just keeps going off and then popping back on. Sometimes it does go off, sometimes it doesn't.
Other times it goes off and then later for no apparent reason it comes back on.
Any ideas?
Turn up your backlight
It's a bug. I know it sounds ridiculous, but this happens when your screen brightness is set to 40% or less. Turn the brightness up, and the problem goes away.
Nice, I turned up my brightness and so far so good...
Thanks.
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.
At first I thought this was impossible, I am using "Light Flow" and always as soon as I unlocked the screen, the led turned off.
But now, I flashed a kernel with touch controls, and I notice that when I wake up the screen with a double tap or a swipe, and I'm on the PIN/etc locker screen, the led is still ON! In fact, it can stay on until I unlock the phone..
If hardware can handle screen and led on at the same time without a problem, there's any way to keep it ALWAYS on without caring if you wake up the phone with the button or unlock it?
Thanks!
I just pulled out my phone and had this happen again for the 4th time. Sometimes when I pull out my phone it had the brightness maxed out, sometimes flashlight on, and battery saver mode. It's not always those changes, but sometimes I have a freakout of the phone and when I take a look at it I see all these random changes. Does this happen to anyone else ?
The only thing I can think of is that the gesture is waking the phone and since the pull down menu is not locked on the lockscreen things are auto getting pressed.

If you have swipe fingerprint for notifications on, it could be you're swiping down on the sensor which would turn the phone on and swipe notifications down, making it easy to accidentally toggle something on as you pull it out.
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.
