LED notification light not working (WhatsApp etc.) - Honor View 10 Questions & Answers

Hi guys,
I received my honor v10 yesterday and I haven't been able to get the LED to work for my preferred apps (WhatsApp, Type Mail...).
When charged, the LED works just finde. For example I configured WhatsApp to show a green LED when a notofication is incoming. But it just doesn't work.
I even tried some LED managing apps (lightflow, led manager, led blinker) - it doesn't work either.
Someone knows a fix resp. has the same problems?

When phone is unlocked or screen is lit up on lock, i noticed the led doesn't blink but as soon as screen light goes off, led blinks

Now it works. I forgot to turn on the LED notification in the system settings (the box wasn't checked...).

Help to check the box

Yes, settings -> display and there should be notification led or notification light. For me it is the last entry but I have german language.
But it uses only 3 colors.
I tryed to change the color for text messages but if i chose another color the notofication led would not show any reaction.
Ok thanks.
But it works only when the phone is not connected to the charger.
Hi,
As far as I know, LED colors are : green, red, yellow some people manage to get white, I didn't.
You can use Lightmanager to deal with the LED. It's working.
You can also use the builtin led notification in some apps like Handcent, WhatsApp ...
Whith the EMUI notification, I only manage to get green.
Indeed when the phone is charging, the charging notification is shown and no other notifications can be displayed.
My notification led doesn't work when I get notifications from facebook or facebook messenger, although notification led is turned on in settings and is also turned on in facebook app.
I'm not sure but I thought it worked in the beginning. I've tried light manager to change the color for various notifications and now i don't get the led to flash when I get facebook / facebook messenger notifications (I'm not sure if it worked before I tried light manager).
I've also tried a factory reset of my honor 6, but still the led doesn't blink. With whatsapp and other notifications, the led works.
Can somebody confirm this problem or can somebody confirm that the led works normal with facebook at his honor 6?
Any solution suggestions for this problem?
I've got an H60-L04, original with EMUI 3.0, not rooted

It is stock email, the setting was set enable. the only way to get it blink is to click the email icon then turn off the screen, it works fine with gmail and whatsapp.

[Q] Disable S6 LED Charging Light

Does anyone know how to disable the red charging light on the S6 edge? I don't want to turn off LED notifications all together, just don't want that bright red charging light.
Try accessibility settings and turn on notification reminders I think that disabled the charging status.

Kind of a hacky work around but it totally works. Unfortunately I don't actually want notification reminders from all those other apps so I had to go through and turn them all off. Thank you!
Otherwise, just use Light Flow. It's great and let's you customize what colour each app has etc.

I was considering that but wasn't sure if LightFlow was working yet with the S6. Can anyone confirm that it does?
Sometimes the notifications would stay and not reset for mine on Telus. I'm using light manager and it's working great. I can't believe the lack of control for the LED on this phone...

Light Manager works for everything but charging status. I have contacts changed, call color changed, but for some damn reason the charging setting won't stick

Light flow actually works for charging status as well. I've set a red light with a custom interval of 50,10000. Basically keeps the light off.
I can't seem to fix this problem. None of the apps suggested here will turn off the stupid red light and the fix with notification reminder doesn't turn off the red light either. The only way I've found to get rid of the red light is to completely turn off the led light which isn't really a solution.

I have LightFlow installed and deleted the notification for charging. This made my light turn off when it's plugged in. If that doesn't work maybe set the notification, but set LED to off?

I used Light Manager. I hated both the charging and charged function. I Enabled the LED for both. Go to the Color selection and make a custom color. When you go back out to the HEX code selection, type in all Zeros. Should be Black. Save and test. Should make it go all quite.
I have the exact opposite situation: I would like to turn off all notifications LEDS but have the charge red/charged green light on (on my S6). I'm using Light Flow, is there an easy way to do this without manually setting it up for each individual app?
I came to the same solution as ChroniclesOfRedick:
Setting a custom color with 0x000000 and Priorty Low for the Charged Battery ist the trick with Light Manager!
Works with galaxy S7 and Android 7.

LED notifications

Anybody tried LightFlow or any other apps to control the notification LED?

They work if that's what you're asking. Light Flow and Light Manager are the two I tested. Definitely prefer LF of the two.
Light manager seems to work for sms but not email. Always on also does not show email notifications. Arg!

No. The email does not show at all for me. Only sms and missed calls.

LightFlow is not working for me. Did you enable the LED in the display settings and did you enable or disable the workaround for Samsung?
I have been emailing the dev for light manager. in order to get it to work, you need to turn on the 5.1 workaround in the apps settings and you have to let it wake the screen for notifications. then the led colors work correctly. one thing that does break is you can not longer expand the gmail notifications in the notification pull down shade. he said he doesn't have an S7 yet to test on but is getting one.
LED Blinker Work correctly
I didn't install light manager yet. I'm just using signal for SMS and changing color of LED in its settings. inbox is blue and I guess missed calls would be the same blue default. Works for now. Also charging is red by default and green I think when charged...

Yes LED Blinker works. I have tested under S7. And many customers told me, too.
Just enable workaround 5.1.1 in app settings (its needed for Android 6, too sadly).

Same here. (With Light Manager) So it seems to be a hardware/model related issue.

Needed screen on for me too (for Gmail at least, some apps worked okay - Handcent/Whatsapp). Which I didn't really want to use but it's better than nothing at this stage.
Ah, sorry, it's Light Manager I used - I was trying a few and got confused!
Ok then what now? Do we return it to samsung and ask for a good one or just live with it??

LED Blinker works, but has the same problem that all of the other LED notification programs have....The Gmail notification icon in the status bar will not auto clear after reading email. It must be cleared manually. Light Manager does the same thing, and according to the developer, it is an issue with Android 6.0

you have to disable the light/led in all apps you use, gmail doesnt have such option, use google inbox instead.

Thanks, but I use Google Apps, with multiple email accounts, so Google Inbox really doesn't work well for my use.

Is it possible to disable LED completely?

Recently I got a U11 and installed LeeDroid rom with root. Personally I do not like LED, and I wonder if it is possible to disable LED completely. I am aware that I can disable LED notifications sent by apps, but I could not find a way to get rid of LED alerts for charging and low battery warning. Or is there a rom that has this functionality?
Well, no way to disable LED? It's especially annoying at night...
a very black tape could help you out

Yes, https://www.google.nl/search?q=htc+.....69i57j0l2.6107j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
You can change when to flash and which apps will flash the LED when there are new notifications.
From the Home screen, tap > Settings > Sound & notification.
Under Notification, tap Flash notifications. Choose whether to always flash the LED or flash it only when the screen is off.
Tap App light notifications.

I know that setting. It is already set to "Off", so no app is flashing LED. My question was how to disable LED completely, even when charging.
