Which led, there's >1
Is there?? The notification one.
There's also a flash led...
Anyway, I agree, the front led is not too bright. Perfect afaic
I agree, really too dim and the frequency is too slow. Everyone is wondering why I stare at my phone with the screen off ! I can't seem to get Light Manager working too. Anyone ?

I have a P8 Max also. Light manager didn't work with it, but Light Flow does. Use that instead.
Ok thank you, I will try it, but I will miss the "Do not disturb" setting" in light manager.
I have to use this built-in function in Emui but it's disturbing, as the phone vibrate when disabling it in the morning. Would there be a way to silence it?
Thank you

I believe light flow functions in the exact same ways. It has a lot of options built in. Play around with the settings.
On my european Mate 9 light manager works without problems.

Is there a reg hack to turn off the blue bluetooth light? I hate having 2 flashing lights on all the time (One blue and one green).
Thanks
I have installed Microsoft voice command 6.1 french and then the blue light turned off!
it is expensive to turn a light off but it works
(by the way if any body knows how to turn it one I'll be pleased to know...)

I will be please to be able to turn the green flashing light off too. I know that the flashing light indicates that the phone is on, but still annoying specially at night (please do not tell me to turn the TC upsidedown)
LOL, that's funny... Any way there has to be a way to turn them both off
There is a way. You know how to do a soft reset - you put a small thing in the reset hole.
If you want to disable the lights, do the same thing, but instead of putting a small thing in the reset hole, you put it on the light. You need to press really really hard... ;-)
However, there is no way to get them turned on again...

This could be done in some devices with Tweaks2k2 .NET (http://www.tweaks2k2.com/portal/staticpages/index.php?page=20050224182009983). I don't know if this could work for Polaris too.

No I have this program, tried this first. I doesn't work.
Anyone have an answer?
Try this
Try this one
It works great on my TC. It's written for the Kaiser but also works on the TC. I've turned off all my LED's except when I've missed a sms or call. It's in Dutch but the interface is pretty clear so I don't think you'll have any problem controlling it. If so let me know.
The only downside with this program is that you can't control the WLAN LED. If you turn off the Phone LED (green flickering) the WLAN LED also gets turned off. Another thing is that the orange LED doesn't light up anymore when you charge your device. Hopefully someone will write a similar program especially designed for the TC. But apart from that it's a neat little program.
Cheers.
Found a fix! This program is awsome. It is for the Tilt, but works great on my TC!
Thanks for this.
It seems to be written for the Kaiser and says that its freeware as it installs.
Seems to work fine on my Orbit2.
I've now turned off both my lights as default - they should illuminate if I miss a call / get mail etc.
I do some work with User Interfaces for avionics.
Cardinal rule - "flashing lights are an exception, not default mode of operation".
ALL flashing lights
Thanks for this, works a treat on my Touch Cruise / Orbit 2

Hmm! That explains why my BlueTooth LED stopped working - I recently installed M$ VC too... Weird.
Anyhow - while you've found a solution to turning off you LEDs, I thought I'd suggest another thing worth looking at for controlling them, for future reference - nueLED... It lets you redirect different LEDs. Still won't turn my BlueTooth LED back on though!
Maybe this belongs in the development area but...
The evo3d got a notification led wich i like...what about if we can make the capacitive button led's blink or something when we have a mail and sms...
Maybe more guys have this idea but well....tell me if its possible and a good idea
It is probably possible and I think developers will have a hand on it if they havent yet.
It will be eventually supported.
this idea is awesome. i think it is possible

This would be a nice to have for sure. If can light up those "buttons" to use for notification, it will be great.
This is already done with O2X, so it is definitely on the way for us
My previous phone was GalaxyS which had no led aswell.
I used a programmed called NoLed on the Galaxy. Installed on Optimus 3d and seems to work fine.

It doesnt support the capacitive button led's.
Sorry i was only suggesting this as a temporary alternative until further developments.
I really like this idea!
But is it possible to expand on it further?
Since there's 4 capacitive buttons on the phone, are we able to make them blink individually?
For example... home button blinks when we have a missed call, menu button blinks when we have a message, back button blinks when we have an email, and etc?
Noled seems to be working fine for me...

Unfortunately not. As the app page states, AMOLED uses no power displaying a fully black pixel so displaying alerts on the screen takes very little power.
Now as the O3D has an old fashioned LCD, it consumes potentially a ton of power just to turn the screen on at all, because it has to light the whole screen just to start. Plus, it uses the MOST power displaying black (least displaying all white), so it would need the opposite behaviour.
[UPDATE]
Ah I see you can make the screen blink, I didn't notice that at first. Might actually be useful then.
i've tested it with the developer of the LG notification app. it seems, that the files which have to be used are'nt writeable. so without root it won't work
perhaps we should send tons of mails to LG, that they make it possible.

Also the notifications can have a time limit, i have set at 15mins and haven't noticed any battery drain.
Modified 2X/Black touch led notification app
Hi guys,
I've modified Martin Börjesson's app and now it works on ROOTed O3D and I'll upload it soon.
To-do:
1) fading doesn't work
2) change of brightness doesn't work
What will never work
1) separate LEDs - I don't think there's a way to control each of them, only all 4 LEDs

Neither of those apps works properly. Light Manager seems to have no effect at all on notifications, and Telegram settings simply don't work. Led is working, but it does the hell he wants.
I really don't know how to control this led, I can't find something useful in settings...
Sry for my english
I'm using Light Flow to control the led, and it works quite flawlessly.

I've tried Light Flow, not working.
Are you on Nougat? Because I think this is a software problem of Honor 8, not Light Manager or Telegram's fault. (I've used it on another smartphone with Android Nougat and it has always worked flawlessy...)
Yes, I use Light Flow on Nougat without any problems.

Used Light Flow in MM and now in N without problems.
I really don't know what to say, neither Light Manager or Light Flow are working for me (yet), and I've led notification only for groups on Telegram. I'm confused
Telegram updated several times, but the issue is still here; I really don't know what to do...
I use light manager in emuli 5.0 and it works
I used both Light Manager and Light Flow but did not work (MM B131).
I'm still fighting with this Telegram thing. I really cannot understand why led is working for groups, but not for single chats, I don't know even what to do right now... don't know if it's Telegram's fault or it's a phone problem.
I'm confused

I already know that for a lot of people led notification is working, but for me it doesn't. I'm not crazy, this thing is not working, period.
However, this morning I found out that Light Manager has been recently updated, I tried it again and this time everything is working perfectly; so I've finally found a workaround for my problem, for now.
That's good
Hello all. Since our Motorols do not have LEDs, I have found a very good application that solves this problem by enabling flash notification. The application is free and without advertising. Maybe some of you know her but maybe I helped someone.
Google Play:

XDA:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-frontflash-notification-v1-6-t3734332
A big thank you to the author of the application.
actually i noticed a LED in the top right upon booting the phone for the first time, so physically, there is a notification LED. But, i think its disabled in the android software, maybe a custom rom can fix that at some point.

In fact, if you look at it in good light, you can see a small dot on the right side of the flash. However, I'm not sure if it's a led. It would be fun because then they will do it in unofficial roms.

It is a white LED. If you let your phone discharge its battery all the way down to nothing, this light will turn on when you charge it. After a few moments, it then turns off. No idea why Moto set it up this way. I'd rather have the LED on all the time when charging.
Ex kernel manager gives you options to use the white led. I have it set to be on when my phone is charging lol

how did you find how to operate front led light?
my one is always on for some reason, phone is operating well, i did a factory reset recently that didn't help.
any advice?
Howdy!
I am trying to set that when I receive a message, it will show a small notification light on the mobile, like I used to have on previous android, but cannot find any option for it...
Is it possible that a so modern phone does not have it?
Thanks

There's physically no led notification light anywhere on the phone that could light up.
You can search for apps on the Play Store that sort of try to imitate having one, but afaik none of them work reliably anymore.

"lackness"
I'm fairly sure that it's been dropped industry-wise for many many years now, much like the 3.5mm jack.
Ambient/Always-on-Display is sort of a replacement for having a notification light though, might want to look deeper into configuring it. I think there's also 3rd party apps that let you configure your AOD even further.

You can be right again, maybe I am old fashioned but I found it useful.
I initially deactivated the AOD for reducing distractions, but I can activate it again if this is only way to see notification without pushing power button to activate screen again

Don't get me wrong, I used to be an absolute sucker for an led notification light.
Keep in mind that AOD and Ambient Display aren't the same. AOD, as the name suggests, keeps the screen always on, whereas Ambient Display just wakes the screen whenever you receive a notification. I only have the latter turned on.

most phones now doesn't have big bezels not only 6a. so where will you put that notification light? the best you can do.. use a rom with an oldschool feature, that will blink flashlight for notification. like this..

There are actually several phones out that also don't have big bezels but there's a tiny notification led hidden behind/next to the earpiece. Common sense.
I use this app:

You can configure it so that it 'flashes' only a few times when a notification comes in. So far I haven't noticed any battery drain.

Already suggested but 1 more vote for HoleyLight.
Chainfire is a community member and respected dev and the app is pretty configurable. Should probably cover your needs nicely.
