Yes I know some LED apps in the play store work. I'm running Resurrection Remix and my LED light was enabled by default in the rom. It lights up for every new email and text I get

Can you get your light to blink for notifications? Mine is just solid even after changing the options

I honestly haven't tried getting it to blink. It doesn't bother me being solid and personally works better for me so I don't miss it when I glance

it doesnt work in GB stock or stock based ROMs
The dev of that app said:
There does not seem to be any fix for the Optimus Black 2.3.4-update, so a fix may not appear at all. Sorry about that. Still, if anyone have any idea about how to solve this issue please contact me.

Light Manager Compatiblity

Someone reported that after updated to Android 5.1.1. Missed call and Gmail LED notification does not work anymore in both normal mode and alternating mode. They are always blinking the default blue color LED.

Is there anyone having the same problem as well?

Yup, all the regular system apps controlled by the Samsung setting are always blue. It still blinks, but I can only get my added AndChat app notification to blink the orange that I have it set to. And when my phone goes into prority only at night, all notifications including my added apps are the default solid blue, doesn't even blink. Hope we get it fixed, I absolutely hate not being able to customize my LEDs.
I wonder if any apps work better with root? I am also stuck waiting on a new root method since I updated to 5.1.1 before reading about the bootloader lock.

Thanks for the info. Does Light Manager work when you disable "LED indicator" in the system settings?
Have you tried enabling Priority for Light Manager? See if when you phone goes into priority only at night, will your added apps LED still working with Light Manager?

I will try setting light manager to priority and let you know what happens.
Also, as a note, my orange AndChat notification stopped working today. It's just a solid blue all the time. I haven't changed anything - seems Samsung's LED controller is finicky about its control. Email, etc still blinks default blue.
edit: Also, forgot to answer - No, the LED doesn't work at all if I disable the LED indicator in the system settings.

Thanks for helping in testing.
I just thought of something. Is your device rooted? I'm not sure if it will work if you put Light Manager to be as system app as well?
I'm not rooted and having the same issue. I hope there is a fix for this.
Whatsapp appears to be flashing with my colors but the default system email is still lighting blue (i don't want ANY light for email) but there doesn't appear to be a way to turn it off

No problem, happy to help.
1. No change on setting to priority mode except that Gmail, etc continued to blink blue instead of solid blue. AndChat continues to be solid blue. I have no idea at one point the orange light I had it set to worked, but it's been all solid blue since yesterday morning.
2. No root, there is not currently a root method for android 5.1.1 on the S6 due to the exploit being patched. We are waiting for a new root method, hopefully soon!
Custom Color Issues
Does anyone else have an issue where the custom colors dont flash the color you chose? I got it to work once but after that it just blinks to the closest default colors... e.i. i want it to flash a celeste color but it it just blinks blue.. any help is appreciated

Yes, I have mentioned above having that problem. My added app briefly showed the colour I chose, but now everything - added and system apps - show the default blue, either blinking or solid.
Other LED manager apps are also not working. Looks like Samsung made some kind of change in 5.1.1. For now we'll have to sit tight as we are out of luck.

Too bad that there is no root method currently.
Please check if the notification access for Light Manager is enabled? I heard that some users complaining that the notification access for Light Manager will get disabled automatically when the device is rebooted.
Also try using alternating mode, I think AndChat will not work in normal mode.

What app notification are you referring to?
Does anyone with the S6 Edge on 5.1.1 have light manager working for missed calls, had it working on led blinker before the 5.1.1 update.

Yes, light manager has notification access. I think this is why some notifications are able to blink. The system default is a solid blue light. There is no issue with my phone on 5.1.1 causing the notification access to be turned off after reboot.
I rooted my S6 today on 5.1.1. I still can't get Light Manager or Light Flow to work properly even with root. Light Manager some notifications blink blue, but others stay solid blue - no reaction to custom colour changes. Light Flow will not show the LED *at all* even with "root mode" activated.

Since your device is rooted, could you please try putting Light Manager app as system app see if it works?
Still not working on s6 edge?
I am on Android 5.1.1 and I am one of the ones reporting that Light Manager no longer works.
Today, though, I did something that may provide a clue to the problem. Perhaps McKoo is reading...
I just installed the latest version of Light Manager Pro on my S6 Edge. I then configured it to my preferences and rebooted the phone. As soon as the phone came up, I used my PC to send myself a text message. Now here is the important part. As soon as the text message was received, and before the alert notification took place, my LED started blinking according to the color and speed I configured in Light Manager for SMS messages (orange, every two seconds). However, as soon as the notification process alerted me to the text message (which I am assuming is a Samsung / Android process), my LED flashing reverted back to the standard blue flash every 5 seconds.
I sure hope the information above is helpful because I really like the Light Manager application. It provided the functionality that Android and Samsung forgot!
Thanks for the explanation.
The LED notification on Samsung devices used to be the first come first serve basis. However from Touchwiz 5.1.1. onwards, like what you have noticed, it had changed to last come first serve basis. Actually right after the Samsung / Android process generates the standard blue LED, Light Manager will generate the orange LED one more time but at this time Light Manager can no longer override the standard blue LED (I am not sure why as well).
If you are using alternating mode, Light Manager will keep on generating LED notification according to the "Interval Of Change" that you have set. However this only happens when you have more than one notification. Could you try generating the 2nd notification (Let say generating a Gmail LED notification after you have generated an SMS LED notification), see if it can override the standard blue LED?
Suddenly I have an idea, could you please go to Light Manager > Advanced Settings > Enable Logging and enable it? Then do the testing above and send me the generated log.txt file which will be generated in your internal storage under a folder named "LightManager". I suspected that maybe Touchwiz 5.1.1 drops / ignores all the notification access detection related to system apps. I might be able to know by analyzing the log.txt file.
Thank you.

Sorry for the delay. I set the app as a system app via Titanium Backup, set it up again, and have no change in behaviour unfortunately.

Have also a rooted 5.1.1 so I can test all necessary to make app working

Notification LED Discussion.l!

I was just roaming around to enable Notification LED.
So I've installed EX kernel manager and in Miscellaneous section I've found LED SETTINGS and the options... (Check yourself). I enable battery-charging-blink-full-solid. And as it says the led blinks while charging and freeze when my battery gets 87%!
I think we can use a init script for our purposes but i think that will not work with Notifications?
I know that there are many apps that can do this.
Give your thoughts please!

LED Notification Work-Around on Stock?

Is there anyway to get the notification light to work on this phone? Custom ROMs do have the blue notification LED, so I was wondering if maybe you could edit the build.prop or something to activate the notification light in stock. Maybe something with Tasker would work as well? The apps that use the camera flash as the LED notification are way too bright and blinding.

If you are rooted there's an app on Google Play that is called Moto LED enabler that kinda works. It keeps popping up the toast that it's been granted root access, but it does work. I was too annoyed by the root access toast notifications to keep it though.

I could have sworn Lineage had it too, but when I tried it again, I couldn't get it to work. I'll try out the ROMs you mentioned.

I tried that before and it wouldn't work. Now I'm wondering if maybe the LED on my phone is broke since you said it works for you.

Front Notification LED customization

Hi!
I know that it is possible to customize the ROG logo on the back with AURA Synch, but I would like to know if you can also customize in the same way the front notification LED. As you can't get notifications from the Always-On-Display that comes with the ROG Phone 3 (or at least that is what I've read from reviews), it is very important to me that the front notification LED could get the same customization and, for instance, make the light blue for Twitter notifications or green for WhatsApp notifications, and so on.
Thank you in advance!
Take care and be safe!
