Notification indicator lights or ideas? - Motorola Edge Questions & Answers

Hi guys- I love my Moto Edge, but I am having a hard time staying on top of new notifications or when my battery is dying, because I do not get any visual indicators on my phone (ie, blinking LED) when it is lying down.
Are there any tricks or do you guys have any thoughts about how I can get my phone to be more visual with these events? I am running LOS and I particularly like the "edge" charging light that you see when you charge while the device is powered off, so it would be great if this could be used or incorporated somehow for notifications/low bat.
Thanks in advance!

[Q] Help! Nexus S will not start

So here is the deal...
My kids needed a night light as we are on vacation so I decided to plug the power charger and left the flashlight app on the entire night. Now that I think about it not a smart idea.
When I woke up this AM the phone had the battery charging icon on the screen. This only appears when the phone is charging while it is powered off.
So far I have removed the battery several times and tried to power the phone on with no success.
I have also tried to hold the volume down and press the power button as recommended on various forums with no luck.
I am overseas right now (home town is the usa) and I need my phone more than if I was home .
Any idea how the flashlight app left ON while also powering may have caused this?
Or is this just a coincidence and I am having an issue that others are having and it is not related to what I did last night?
Thanks and any help is greatly appreciated.
By flashlight app do you mean one that turns on the camera flash or one that leaves the screen on?
I am also unclear what you mean by:

Does the icon appear even when not charging? Does the screen function at all? Or does the phone seem completely dead, as in not even vibrating when powering on after removing battery.
If it was the camera flash, it might have overheated and damaged something, but this is just my speculation.
By flashlight I mean the one that leaves the screen on in white color.
The icon only appears while the phone is hooked up to the charger. When I unlplug it it disappears. (So to me this answers your question if the screen works at all).
The phone does not vibrate when I try to power it on after I remove and put back the batter.
Thanks for your quick reply and hope this answers your questions.

[Q] anyone have their battery LED blinking after charge?

On my replacement tab running latest 3.1.1 my battery light blinks green orange after charging overnight. Once I open the smart cover, it shows charged and then the light changes green. No other problems I can tell and the battery temp seems OK in gsam. I am using an Anker charger that I used previously with the old tab. I am going to disable xposed and charge with the stock charger to see if it does the same thing.
Anyone else experience this? Thanks.
I have seen this when charging the tablet in the OFF state. It seems to blink when it's done charging. Went away when I booted it.
I also have a similar problem. The led light of my replacement tablet:
1. blinks all the time (orange green) when tablet is fully charged. This happens when the replacement tablet during charging is switched off.
2. is aproximatly 30 second green then starts blinking (orange green) and then is orange and after a while is again green then again starts blinking and this happens over and over again. This happens when the replacement tablet during chargning is powered on.
There is never solid green charging led light even if I have tried to use diferent chargers
I hope this is not a serious problem which could damage the battery of the replacement tablet. I have never seen something like that during charging of different android devices.

I had the same problem. Then it quit charging completely. I did some searching online and found a solution. Turns out the green wire from the battery had come loose. Soldered the green wire back in to place and it works. No more blinking and it's charging.
If you are going to do this, please be careful when removing the black tape strip. You may accidentally pull some of the other wires soldered to the board.
Hope this helps.

ME301T 10' Won't Charge, Constant Green LED

Well one day it seems the tablet won't charge. Typically the LED by the power button will glow orange when its plugged in. It doesn't anymore and it doesn't show that its charging. The LED is also constantly green now...
I've managed to somewhat charge it (by accident) by loading it into bootloader mode (i think its charging) as the LED is orange when its plugged in.
WTF happened and how can I fix this piece of ****
Owned it for 3-4 years, never had an issue, rarely used it for prolonged hours.
Its rooted and is on beanstalk rom.

Progress Charging Screen stays lit after charging.

Hi Everyone,
I am really enjoying this phone after a couple of days but do have one issue.
I normally charge the phone at night. The first night I charged it and the next morning saw that the progress screen ( the blue screen that comes on when you charge) was on. Of course the phone was very warm as well. I am not sure if there is a setting that I missed somehow.
This morning I watched the charging process as I still had a good amount of battery left. Always on Display is enabled as well. the phone got charged and then the Blue Screen popped up. It then started to dim and it did go black but some ad popped up on the blue screen and it came on again at the normal intensity.
Anyone else having this issue?
Thanks in advance

Sony Xperia Z3 (D6616) - Sudden Death

Was accessing dual recovery to wipe for a clean slate and it had a sudden death. The charging LED was no longer lit. Left the phone alone for about 2 weeks to let it drain but no response. Decided to order another battery for testing thinking it may have been bad, still no response. What I did notice is that if the battery is removed and the charger is connected, the LED blinks red constantly. However, if I were to attach the battery connector the LED will stop blinking after a few seconds. Is this an issue with the motherboard itself or can there something be done to bring it back to life?
*Update*
Let it charge for a couple of hours. Still not turning on but getting some response at least. The phone will now vibrate in sets of 3's if I hold down Power and Volume +. When trying to charge, the red LED will come on for 5 seconds then off every 5 seconds. When connected to the PC, it shows as unidentified USB, but the sound of it being disconnected is constantly going off. Not sure if anyone knows how I should proceed from here...

Hi my phone is a D6603 and i was having a very and inusual problem like you Sudden death with some response vibrating in sets of 3's. My problem was resolve when i remove the sim then press the reset button 2 times in a row but slowly and the phone was starting again
I dont remember if it was or not conected try both ways
Back up your files and start working to keep it warm and dry, remember that it can be water damage. I downloaded minergate and began to mine in easy difficulty so that it would not become slow, but at the same time to keep it warm. It is only to dry if it was damaged by water, I do not recommend anyone to mine with a smartphone xD
