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.
Hi,
I would like to make my phone's screen light up periodically when it's locked and I receive notifications.
My phone does not have a pulse notification LED and it does not have any other means of showing persistent alerts for notifications when the screen is locked.
I have sen many apps that replace the default lock screen and generally require a lot of permissions, change the lock screen design, wallpaper, unlocking method and mess up / complicate things unnecessarily in general.
What I had in mind is a very simple concept but I don't know if it exists or if it is possible, because it may consume too much battery or maybe Android just does not allow it.
I would like my regular lock screen (which already shows that I have notifications, by the way) to light up for ~1 second every ~1 minute until the notifications are dismissed when I have notifications. Ideally that would be customizable somewhere.
To save battery, if the front camera detects no light (i.e: the phone is in the pocket or turned down) then it would not light up the screen, assuming the camera does not consume more battery than this would.
Could someone help me find the closest thing to something like that?
Thanks.

Thanks.
That app is close to what I want, but if I understand it correctly, it turns on the screen when I receive a notification for a period of time, and then it turns off for good.
Ideally, it would do the same function as the notification LED: turn on and off repeatedly until the notifications are dismissed.
I'll give it a try though, and see what it does.
I received my Geaar S3 Frontier yesterday, switching from an Android wear watch.
After playing around with the watch for several hours and testing many different watch faces I can't figur out how to display the yellow indicator for new notifications in ambient mode (AOD activated).
Do I really have to enter "active mode" to see if I have unread notifications?
Yes, you have.
In aod only static information, apart from the hour/date, can be shown. Battery cannot be showed also!

Same experience but reviving this topic just in case there is any new setting/workaround? Love to keep my phone with AOD on, Wake Up Gesture off (so that when i'm out dancing or just moving my hands around it doesn't turn on for no reason), but would love to just turn my wrist and see if there is a notification (ie. screen remains dim).
There's a difference between knowing that there is a notification and being able to read it's contents.
My watch settings:
AOD
Wake up gesture- off
Notification indicator- show on watch face
Sound and vibrate- on (wine cork sound is relatively unobtrusive)
My Gear Manager app settings:
Turn screen on- off (if this is on, notifications will automatically be readable on the screen)
Notification indicator- on
Auto show- off, I know there's a notification because it beeps but it doesn't activate screen so I can't read it.
Auto show- on, tapping on the screen will show message.
There's a lot of flexibility. A notification can be silent, trigger a sound, trigger a vibration, or trigger an indicator. The contents of the notification can be automatically displayed, displayed by a wrist gesture, displayed by a simple tap, or not displayed at all.
Hi, just for an S3 Classic. First ever smart watch. I feel like there should be a better form of notification on the watch. Like if it lit up a color like my phone has LED notifications. Or seeing an always on display like my S8+ phone that shows an icon for the app with a notification. Is there anything better? Through rooting? Thanks!
You have the option in settings to turn on the watch screen when a notification comes in. Also when you miss a notification there is a yellow dot on the left side of the screen letting you know.
Edge lighting does not work. i have enabled it in the setting but when a notification comes no lights are showing.
Edit: one time it showed up on sms message. but not on online notification
