Disable charging LED? - OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers

I use my phone to read in bed at night. I have two questions.
Does anyone know how I can disable the charging LED?
Does anyone know of a way to increase the intensity of night mode beyond the stock settings?
If it helps I have Xposed and magisk. Oh also, I would prefer not to use gravity box for Oreo, as it seems to mess up some things with the status bar.

I want to do this too , I don't understand why there isn't an option to turn it off.
I downloaded Lightmanager and lightflow to try and turn it off, unfortunately didn't work.

Same. Sure wish at least the LED brightness could be controlled.

With lightning manager, config the color with 000001 (it doesn't work with 000000)

Only way is to turn off LED for all.
Settings > Display>Blink LED

For those who were interested, I solved this by using the app Light Flow.

I use tasker to do this and the secure settings plugin. In the secure settings plugin I run the following script:
settings put system battery_charging_led 0
This will only disable the charging led. Change the 0 for a 1 to turn it on again.

Does this still work for you on latest Android?

It works on Lineage Android 9 on OnePlus 3T.
Thank you!

Working LED charging light app?

New to nexus 5... searched and found light flow and light manager. Neither work for charging. Perhaps I set it up wrong?
Also, sorry if this has been asked... search function on the app sucks
Light flow has option...just need to enable it. Also check the settings , there are some settings for while charging.

Hmm... I wonder if something in gravity box is conflicting... I have those sittings set, still nothing
Light Manager works on my Nexus 5 with the following setup:
1. Turn off daydream
2. Light Manager Advanced settings > Static LED > Option 2

Light manager is working using your settings, thanks.
Quick question. If I disable the unlock cancels notification setting, what does cancel it? Clearing the notification and unplugging charger?

I noticed led only comes on when screen is off.
If u enable that setting, led notification will stop once u unlock the screen.
If u disable the setting, led notification will go on until u read the message, checked the missed call, etc.
Cyanogen Mod 11 Milestone 4 might be the way to go

If you are willing to unlock your phone and load a ROM, CM11 M4 has that feature built in. This is a really stable build and has Google Dialer working.
Here is a review of some of the features
If you are feeling really adventureous you can try the nightly builds http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2584004

Tasker - Turn ON LED

Hey guys.
I'm trying to use Tasker to turn on LEDs at my will. I have successfully used LED Notifications, but I do want to just turn it on.
In "Alert" there is an option called "Set Light" in which you can set a value between 0 to 255 to different parameters. None of 'red', 'blue' or 'green' seem to work. It does work in my XPeria P (LTi22), so I know that's the option.
Am I missing something? Has anyone managed to do this?
Thanks!!
P.S: For anyone wondering, a possible scenario is: I have a LED Notification set for when my phone is fully charged. Works well unless I already have my led blinking. In that case I miss it unless I manually unlock my phone to see if there's the "Charged" notification in my status bar. On my XPeria on the other hand, if there's any notification, Tasker will turn it off and then set the LED to a 255 blue.
No one? Come on guys, please!
As far as I know, this is a limitation of stock KitKat and the Nexus 5, which do not allow the LED to be in a constant 'on' state, only pulse. Also, it is based on notification priority, the first notification received is what the LED will show. And the Nexus 5 will not allow the LED to be on while the screen is on.
I have not been able to figure it out using Tasker, but I assume it would be possible with an Xposed module, if someone were inclined to write one for this purpose.

As far as I'm aware if the screen is already on the notification light will not work.
I couldn't get it to work at all, but in the end it is.
Not certain this works - but under your phones settings go to Accessibility and at the top you should see SERVICES section. Listed under there should be Tasker, set it to ON
Hopefully this works for you.

That is what already happens by default, why would you need Tasker to accomplish this?
Try lightflow app - it will cycle thru' the notifications, with different colors for different notifications (depending on how you set it up)
Ya. That's ok. But I wanted to set the notification light with tasker. I myself found the method for that. Thanks anyway!

I gave that as an example. I just wanted to know how to set notification LED for the notification from a specific app. That's it.

[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.

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.

Notification LED on G8+

I know the notificaiton LED is designed by Moto only to indicate low charge etc, but is there any root-free option to get that light triggered at all?

Only root.
Huh?
A notification LED? no such thing on my G8+
charging, low charge or whatever, never seen a LED blinking...
Its there. Do a YouTube search. A user got it to work with a Tasker script
I was able to create a Tasker setup so when I get an SMS the LED will stay lit until I open that app.
To turn on the LED:
echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/charging/brightness
To turn off the LED:
echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/charging/brightness
echo 1 to 255 for LED brightness
You can really use your imagination with this. I have it set to have a brighter LED when I receive a missed SMS. And a not so bright SMS for other related event.
I got it to work with rooted G8+ by using this guide
