No LED notification in Pie - Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi all,
Does anyone have this issue? I just updated to Pie (latest version) today and find out that LED notification is no longer working. The battery charging LED is ok, but no light for missed call or message.
It works fine in Oreo.

Works for me.

did an app work? if so, which one?

Lightflow works for me on Pie, especially for app specific colors. However I have to use the "always on" feature. Blinking on off setting have never worked on my PH-1.

might be worth double check the other LED related setting "don't blink light" under "custom restrictions" though you probably have already

Just want to update....in my phone, LED notification only works:
- gmail
- Voice mail waiting (but not work if there's missing call)
Does not work in SMS, MMS (doesn't matter in stock messenger or Textra or ChompSMS)
Look like Android Pie issue (I'm using latest Pie)
Any suggestion or solution is appreciated.

Update: After April update, LED notification is working in Textra but not in stock messenger or ChompSMS.
Missing phone call is still not working. I hope after May update, everything will work....cross my fingers.

[Q] X10 2.3.3 Official Led Notification

Hello,
I upgraded my X10 to the official 2.3.3 before I put a Cyanogen, and I loved the ability to set the color of the LED according to the different events. Clearly this possibility is still not yet a basic functionality. Do you know an application capable of doing as well as in the rom Cyanogen.
Thanks

That's a very good option, but I find Blink simpler and much more battery friendly.
Blink -> can not manage all the notifications, such as gmail or gtalk
LightFlow -> very good setup, but I left because the test mode of the LED did nothing but retesting it seems that the configuration still works at a real notification
Thanks

I stand corrected, Blink doesn't seem to work anymore in GB...
About LightFlow, apart from testing the LEDs, did you notice any other issues?
I am interested in managing the LED light for apps like Gtalk and Gmail and also missed calls.

You need to turn your display off when testing. I just tried it and it works.
Hi,
Did you guys manage to find any app for official SE LED notificataions on cyanogen ROM?

WhatsApp LED notifications

Guys,
Has anyone been having problems with WhatsApp LED notifications not working randomly?
Mine has been doing this for a few days now. If I get a WhatsApp message I'm supposed to get a purple or green LED notification. But for the last few days sometimes I get it and sometimes I don't.
I haven't changed or added apps or anything!!

I found that a reboot solves the problem for a bit. But then it just fails again!
I think you should be able to fix it by using an app called lightflow or something. Why not use a custom rom and set the LED notification there?

Thanks for suggestion. But I'm running gravity box which is absolutely amazing. So don't want to get rid of it for a custom ROM.
I used light flow some time ago and was excellent. But again with GB no need for it.

LED Notification missed calls

With the latest update to 4.4.3 it seems that Google still has not solved the problem led notification of missed calls, there is also up to you?
Works fine for me.
I use LightFlow though.

I was referring to the stock version without using apps like lightflow or similar :good:
Similar issue here. Sometime it work, sometime it dowsn't. Running 100% 4.4.3.

Light Flow

Has anyone been able to get Light Flow to work on the OnePlus One? I like light flow a lot better than the CM notification center, but I just can't seem to get it to work.
Has anyone here getten it to work? If so, mind sharing your settings?
So far I've had one person say it worked and two not!
Can you try and see if led color tester by coolbeans works on the phone (with lightflow either not installed or disabled) and let me know if that works?
I'm interested in this as well. I enjoy Lightflow so much more than any of the other notification apps I've tried. I'll be heartbroken if it doesn't work...
i used lightflow with paranoid android and it works fine on my oneplus one chinese version

Hello. I'm a big fan of your work (been using on the N4 and N5).
I also have this app on my OnePlus One. I noticed that up until the most recent build that all my notifications were working. Gmail and stuff were all fine.
Is it me or did the latest build change something? When notifications come in I get a white light blinking. When I power my screen on and off again it seems like Light Flow then registers, and now I get green pulses.
I'm not sure if its the most recent build of Light Flow or if its because I added a second Gmail account). I am rooted so I'm on root mode, but maybe some of my settings are whacked?

Yep, have the same "issue". Before the last Update everything was fine..
No Light Flow issues here.
Just got my OnePlus One today. Installed, restored the app generated backup from my S4, good to go.
Some apps need to have their own LED setting disabled for LF to work properly since the last version.

I'm aware of this for some users and I've just pushed out an update (it should show in the play store over the next few hours) I've had a few people testing who had that issue and reports so far seem to be that it fixes that issue.

You sir are a hero. It no longer requires me to use Gravity Box UNC to override settings.
Question: Do you recommend for high end phones like the N5 and OPO to run in foreground or background? I see no issues with background on my OPO and the app doesn't get killed at all.
Second question: You're still going to roll out global settings someday right? Having to change speeds for every app is a bit annoying, or even custom blink settings.
Final question: Is it possible to adjust the brightness for the LED? I see a brightness option in the sleep options for night blinking, but adjustments for individual notifications? Would be nice to have global for this too

On the N5 I find it does work better with the option on, without it once every few days maybe it'll get killed off by android (which is fairly normal for any background service) so it'll miss a notification.

Yes that's still on the list. If google hadn't brought out android L I'd have been working on that, but I've had to divert my time to issues with that!

There's a global option for this (in lightflow, settings, general settings, led brightness), but not individual, you'd just have to use the custom color option at the moment.
Lightflow works for me.
I can't get LF working, or if it does work it just flashes white. I'm 100% stock/unrooted so is there anything else I need to activate to get it working? I had no issues with my previous Nexus 4/5 so it must be something silly!
EDIT: Reinstalled and seems to be working OK now, so obviously something I did wrong!
Thanks for the help @andrewpmoore
Is it possible to have the lights on even when the screen on? Is that the "Samsung direct mode?" I don't believe that worked on my other non Samsung devices, so I doubt it will work on the OPO.
I ask because CM's battery LED seems to by default remain on even when the screen is on or off.

Same here. Rooted. Locked bootloader. Dunno if it matters...
Correction! There seems to be a small glitch: At the end of Charging when switching to Charged it seems to start switching between Charging and Charged rather than just using the Charged notification.
I've a fix coming for switching between charged and charging.
What 'Device Settings' is everyone running to make this work? Is anyone using:
Direct Mode?
Samsung root mode?
Reset color before change?
Nexus 5 force LED reset?
For some reason mine works for a period of time than I start getting SMS's and it stops working. I restart the app, but it doesn't continue to work again. Not sure what's going on.

The Nexus 5 thing is the only box I have checked (must've been by default since I didn't do it).

Not having any issues... maybe backup your notification settings and then wipe and restore them. Ensure LF has the proper notifications access, etc.

Nope. Nothing. Tried to clear the cache and data. Tested the notifications and nothing... Checked Notification access and tried enabling root mode. Still nothing... Phone is stock though rooted.

I tested it with WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Threema and BlueMail. It works flawlessly, though I would appreciate an update to customize the duration of the light, other colors and that it will be pulsating, etc.
Maybe a restart is going to fix your problem? Or try to turn off ambient display completely - restart - turn it on again. I read that others cleared data and cache of the app ambient display, that could work as well.

Thanks bro, will give all those a try.
Strange but I dont see ambient display app even in system apps I cant find it.
Got it, still didnt help... guess factory reset is next.
Works for me also, too bad is only once. I hope a software update can add more options.
I would like the screen to blink every few seconds when I have notifications, maybe also different colors per app.
I was on chat with OP support because I have yet to see the horizon light turn on. I have tested notifications for various apps in a pitch black room with ambient display on, off, changing notification slider to all 3 positions, restarting the phone, hard resetting the phone (all the suggestions from OP support) and nothing fixed it. OP support asked me to film the issue and send to them so they could "isolate the root cause of the issue". FYI I am on OOS 9.5.3 in case that is a different. I feel like mine is defective since I have yet to see any sort of edge light up.
