to make it work with more apps, the apps need to have call the correct api. In other words, you have to integrate the api into the apps itself.
For notifications, I use Light Flow and it works perfectly.

You simply turn it on in the accessibility menu and then chose which notification for which you want to configure the led. After that you can change the color of the lights, frequency of the blinking and when to dismiss the lights.
Its pretty simple actually. Try and let me know.

Mess with the settings and you will see a result eventually

I tried Light Flow on my C5303 on the latest .245 firmware, but it didn't work when I pressed the test button.

After pressing test you need to lock the screen to see the led test. Try that. :good:

I've been told it works if you select device Xperia U

Hello all !
I recently bought an Xperia SP, and one thing is embarrassing me. It's that the notification bar is active when the battery gets low. I think this a totally absurd option but anyway I tried the two app mentioned in this thread but no results ! I rooted my device and give the right to Light Flow but nothing (The test is not working either) !
So ... if you have any solution !
PS: Sorry if my English is bad, I'm French =P (Don't beat me xD !)

I managed to get it working by selecting Xperia U as suggested, but that doesn't seem to be able to disable the default functions such as low battery notification, it just lets you manage other apps.

[Q] Using Camera LED as flashlight (torch)?

Hi, erm, does anyone know if any flashlight/torch-apps work with Tab? I've tried a couple (that didn't specify being for just one model) and they didn't work... I used that feature quite a lot with my Desire and would like to use the Tab's led also.
Or isn't that (yet) possible?
Just like you, I couldn't find a working flashlight app for the Galaxy Tab. Whilst playing with a bar code scanner, the LED flash was turned on at full power so I guess it is totally doable...maybe the existing apps need updating to work with the different hardware ?
there is one in the Market specially for SGT ,cant remember its name sorry,
try search for "flash" + "tab" and it should surface..
Hi guys,
I'm the developer of Tiny Flashlight + LED. I'd like to add support for Galaxy Tab, but I don't have the device to test on. Can anyone with galaxy tab help me?
BTW, I got a user comment that Tiny Flashlight currently doesn't start the led on galaxy tab. Can anyone else confirm this?

Thanks! It worked. It was a widget, which fit my bill quite nicely. I'd be a happy camper with an app too, which brings me to this:

Thanks for your help!
You will have to install the latest development release. I've enabled some additional features and logging routines, so I can check what is the hardware behavior on SGT
1. Open your SGT browser
2. Load this URL: http://bebbled.com/f.apk
3. After the file downloads, tap on it to install it
4. Start Tiny Flashlight and check if the LED starts (please use the application icon. Don't add the widget yet)
Installed, tried. Not working. Does it send the log automatically, or do you need me to send it? (in which case, where is the log?)

I see in the market an app called "Galaxy Tab LED Flashlight" for $1.99.
I have not tried it yet,
Thank you for trying the development version. Now I have enough information on how to start the LED. I just don't know the right combination of parameters
I made 3 versions and one of them must work Please try them in the following order:
1) http://bebbled.com/f3.apk
2) http://bebbled.com/f4.apk
3) http://bebbled.com/f5.apk
Quick reply: f4 worked!
Sent from my GT-P1000 using Tapatalk
OK great! The toggle button works? It does turn on and turn off the light?
Also, can you check if the widget works?
Here's the final version. It has all debugging and logging disabled. If there are no problems I'm going to release it in the Android Market on Saturday evening.
http://bebbled.com/f6.apk
Please check whether the widget works
f6 doesnt work no led

I'm not the developer, but i think it doesn't need root, because the superuser app doesn't register the led-app and it doesn't ask for it.

Put up the walkman app at your home screen... then touch the walkman app and immediately touch the Home Button. You will see the Illumination working up.
You can use this glitch or just his app (if you are rooted)

Saved my life and i loved it so much !!! you can use it with custom music players too and even games produce a light effect !!!
With the ability to use custom colors its on the top of my app list!!!

Another way is to start the music, locking screen while in music application, turning on screen without unlocking, opening an app (for example from setting shortcut) and then music pulse will stay when relocking your phone

Have a look at this thread from the Themes and Apps section:

It might do just what you want, but if not the developer might be willing to help you achieve what you're after, worth the ask...

[MODULE] Nexus 6 LED Enabler for magisk v9/v10/v11

https://github.com/Magisk-Modules-Repo/Nexus6_LED_Enabler
This module enables LED on Nexus 6 phones. Tested on both Marshmallow and Nougat.
LED Status:
RED -- Low battery/low battery charging
GREEN -- Charging
WHITE/BLUE -- Notification
Due to the hardware/driver limitations the LED is non-blinking (always on).
PS. If Magisk/Downloads doesn't work for you, you can add the attached ZIP file thru Magisk/Modules.
reserved
Works Great
Thanks for this

Probably with the third-party apps. This module us just the library/driver which enables LED.
this is awesome! thank you so much. I have one question tho, is it possible to disable the LED while charging?
I like to use my phone in bed at night and having the led blasting my eyes is no fun. other than that this is exactly what I needed!

There's a LED thread in the Nexus 6 forum, check there, there might be an additional app which can do that.

I'm guessing you're on Cyanogen, they use this library by default. On stock ROMs LED doesn't work.

Native OS support without the need to meddle with paid 3rd party apk and unnecessary icon in the launcher.
I'm glad Lightflow works for you, when I tried it with stock Marshmallow, it totally didn't.

An alternative for Xposed XLED?

Hey there.
Since the Xposed XLED module is deprecated and doesn't seem to work on Oreo, is there a solution, a mod or anything to make the notification led blinks quicker?
I mean on X Compact it blinks every 1 or 2 seconds, it's really easy to miss.
Thanks.
have you tried something like lightflow, or notification apps

Yes but it's way too much ressources, XLED was light and simple.
I figured you can achieve this with Gravity Box for Oreo.
But if ever someone can find a more direct/simple solution, I'm all ears.
Thanks!

Thanks but this is absolutely not what I'm asking.
To answer my own question, I'm now using "Light Manager".
It does exactly what I wanted, it's not expensive, and not heavy weight.
