Can i get a notification light to blink if i root this phone?
AFAIK the Pixel 7 doesn't have a notification LED. Most contemporary smartphones don't and haven't for the past 5+ years.
I can do it with an app from google play, called aodnotify. I was just wondering if i rooted the phone anyway, maybe i could get it without the app.

Although not a root app, I recommend dynamicspot. It has a free version, simulates Apples' Dynamic Island, and does not use up a lot of screen real estate.

Rom evolution x has this feature built-in. And flash rom doesn't need root
Thanks for the info, guys.

that app has a completly different purpose then for example aodnitify.
For now, i'm sticking with aodnotify.
aodNotify could be great if the system wasn't killing its accessibility service all the time.
Any tips on this?
I'm only using it for turning off AoD if no notifications present.
And sometimes I can't wake the screen at all by just tapping. Only with the switch.
The FAQ even says to completely disable it in the accessibility options. But without that turned on the AoD switching doesn't work at all.

Yes it is checked there, I have even tried unchecking and then checking it again but still doesn't work.
This is getting annoying now, I actually use BBM and not seeing the notification on the display is very frustrating. I hear the notification sound but then the lock screen shows no notification and doesn't pulse.
Do you think this is a BBM app issue or an OS issue? Wondering who I can submit this problem to, not that its going to get it fixed anytime soon or anything.
Thanks

I have this issue and I'm guessing its an app issue or OS compatibility issue. I disabled the persistant icon in the notification bar, did you guys do that too? I'm going to turn it back on, and give it a shot.

Yes, I have tried turning on and off all notification settings in BBM to see if that would change anything.
I was hoping the new Moto app update would fix this but it does not!! ugh
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/general/updated-motorola-apps-1-19-15-t3007492
Tried this morning didn't help.
The latest version of BBM now shows the notification on moto display! Version 2.7.0.20
Woo-hoo! Finally
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!

Yes there is a white led on left side next to front camera.
I found this app called "LED Control" that allows you to see the notification light when battery is charging, full, etc. But I want an app that can also show the led when I have a missed call notification.

Have you tried this feature. Lights up the screen when you receive any notification.. You can set it to other colors..

I've been playing around with this myself, doesn't appear like there is any customization to this which I wish there was to extend the time it stays on screen. Also it doesn't seem to work if you use custom texting apps for example.
Yeah it would have been nice to customize the colors, duration (time and repeat), and which notifications. Really like it though. I've missed a flashing status light to get my attention.

He was able to change it to whatever color? Or it was just showing the different factory set colors?

There's a few of those apps, and this one worked best for me! I stopped using it (uninstalled) though, too much battery drain!

Go to notification settings on the custom texting app, importance, urgent. That should activate the blue frame. Worked for me on the Signal text app.
useless in the dark?
It almost makes up for the lack of Notification LED.
My only issue with this feature is that it only works when the AOD is on... so it is useless at night or in the dark.
I haven't figured out how to keep the AOD on while in the dark, I feel the phone vibrate but you have to press the power button a couple of times to wake up the V40. Anyone else having a similar issue? is there a setting?

Come to find out my issue is with the screen protector. It doesn't have a notch at the top, just holes for the cameras and speaker, and a clear spot for the sensor between the cameras... but that's not enough. So when there is not enough light, the sensor thinks it's in the pocket and the screen goes dark... and no knock to un-lock.

Yes, KnockON is enabled under "Extensions". I've found that knock or fingerprint don't work if the sensor in the front is covered. Only the power button.

Hey guys give this a try, I hate AOD and I'm disappointed this phone has no LED. But I traded this phone for my Mate 10 Pro so it's alright.

Using this with Textra. This is pretty cool!
I've got a CN version of this phone. I it updated the day after I received it so I think some of the notification issues mentioned before has been resolved... or at least I haven't experienced what some others have described yet.
at the moment I seem to be receiving the notifications as they arrive... but I still miss them because there is no easy way to know the notifications have arrived!!
The AOD / screen off clock is quite useless (at least in the CN ROM) it only shows the clock, missed call and SMS. Thats it. I'm trying notify buddy now, which kind of solves the problem. I say "kind of", because while it does allow me to have an LED notification, it deactivates the finger print sensor until you wake it. And also I seem to be getting large battery drain with it.
AOE doesn't work for me.
Is there anyway to get the screen off clock to show other notifications as well ?
Thanks for anyones help.

I got EU version and have exactly the same problem. ColorOS 6.1
I googled a lot trying to find a way to personalize AOD clock (like Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro) but I couldn't find anything.
I searched also for a method to make it show other notifications but there isn't nothing.
Maybebe someone else found something?
Unfortunately I think the situation won't change too much with Android 10.

Actually it will. Android 10/reame ui brings new AOD with notification and customizations.
Have look here at 3:48

I'm afraid he said nothing about app notifications on AOD. Although, there is a notification switch in Screen-Off Display settings, so maybe there is a chance
Its really annoying that they made a phone without useful AOD notifications AND without an LED for notifications.. having to turn on the screen to check for notifications is inconvenient and probably uses more battery.
really hope the next update sorts this out.
on a side note, notifybuddy does solve kinda solve this problem.. but its not an elegant solution.
major battery drain and the finger print sensor is blocked by the notifybuddy overlay..
I'm planning to buy the X2 pro and had the same question. Does the phone allow to see new app notification preview on screen off display (AOD)... and not just the app icon?
Currently I am using the mia1 and I am able to see new app notification flashes in Ambient mode... without waking the phone.
Thanks in advance.

The screen edge flashes for a couple of seconds when you recieve something, though you can't know which app it is if you have multiple notifications. No preview as far as I've noticed.

Thanks. Sad to know that even an app icon doesn't show up on a screen off display If they want to move closer to stock Android these are some of the features they should have. Oxygen atleast has paid heed to this concern by releasing beta versions for op7 and op7t.
Personalising the screen off clocks doesn't help me much. I'd rather do away with the clock and mantra and get the msg preview feature in.

Ah no, that's not what I mean. You get the icon, but it doesn't show the message or blink the icon (so if you have multiple icons, you don't know which is the current notification).
