Thanks to ChainsDD I got my notification led working, however, the Android framework only displays a notification for the first event.
Since I have a constant stream of emails I always have the green notification flashing, so for most cases I don't get an indication for any other event...
So, here's a trivial mod which blends the colors of all the active notifications and turns on the notification led with the blended color. Only works well if you use basic colors. For example I have email as Green and SMS as Red. When I have both events on, the notification color is yellow (green + red).
Attached is a diagram which shows the results of blending different colors
This mod only works for CyanogenMod-5.0.6 (as I have built this jar using his source). No guarantees - works for me.
Installation:
Download services.zip and rename to services.jar.
In recovery, do a nandroid backup and then push services.jar to /system/framework/
code is in github/eshabtai
Is there anyway to get this to work on the Desire rom? Great job BTW.
Is it possible to have colors blink in succession? Like say if you have a missed call(red), gmail(green) and sms(blue), it will blink red, green, then blue?

+1 I think this is easier to understand than having all colors mixed.
Great Mod! Did you use smspopup to set the colours?
I'm not familiar with development, but for my suggestion:
Is it possible to create a queue of some sort with trackball led notifications, and have the notification system look at that when it decides to flash the led?

+1 That would be so perfect to blink them in succession- exactly what I need. Gmail flashes all the time lol and the color mixes would get messy real fast.
Thanks for working on this
Yes succession!!
Been saying this since G1 days!! Would be great.

+1 and I agree that in succession would be better than mixing the colors. My memory isn't so hot lol.
Looking into implementing sucession.

+10 Was thinking the same thing when I read the OP's Green+Red = Yellow... Not good with mixing colors..
What are the chances of having this updated for 5.0.6 CM or releasing the code?
Thanks,

Updated code for 5.0.6 is in github:
github/eshabtai
(I can't seem to post an actual link...)
I can release an updated services.jar file for 5.0.6 if that would help.
Ehud

You can change led blinker color with this app. There are thread in x10 forum where people claim that blink doesn't work with 2.1 but in mini it works. Atleast did if i used frequency fast and blue light or pink color ! red color didn't work for me and i didn't check other colors.
get it here androidfreeware.net/get-blink.html

I still have problems using it.
I installed it this afternoon and don't see any notifications at all right now on the LED.
I will try to find what's going wrong tomorrow.
Hey guys,
I've searched XDA/google and tinkered with my S3 but cannot change the indicator lights colors. They default to blue for notifications. I remember being able to change the colors on my HTC G1 and was wondering if anyone knew how to do this on the Galaxy 3?
Thank you.
Theres an app for that
Check out lightflow (though there are still some bugs that need to be worked out for the SGS3)

Doesn't matter, this phone has issues with notification lights anyway.
Hi mates.
Its my 1st post on XDAforums and i wanna claim that my eng isnt perfect.
I flashed unofficial roms, so warranty is void now.
I have got annoying problem with illumination bar of my Xperia U. It shows wrong colors. I tried Unofficial JB4.1.2 UltraLite v7 rom and everything was fine. I was using LUC to set notifications of Illumination bar with sms.
Yesterday my problem has started. Illumination bar shows wrong color ,when i order whole bar to show white/silk ,center diode shows pink color. Right and left diode are fine, but center diode misses colors all the time.
Same happens when i pick other colors - when i pick blue ,center diode is purple ,when i pick yellow ,center is green.
I flashed stock 4.0.4 rom for Xperia u now, and problem still exists.
Do you know any solution?
I wish you can help me.
Cheers.

i'm also having the same problem but sometimes it goes back to normal(the center led is not illuminating with green color).
is it repairable by service center or is it just a software bug??

Simple way of checking for a software bug is to flash or restore stock ics and see if the problem persist its a hardware issue and if not then a software bug

Just manually delete useless apks using a root explorer.
Is there any way to configure the color and duration of notification led? i try using light manager pro and light flow... but nothing happen i mean the test inside these apps works but when i receive some real notification are the one from stock. Green led and 3 seconds delay :crying:
im on MM
Afaik nope.
I use light flow and it works really good.

seems to work on Lollipop
I use different colors settings from apps like whatsapp, aquamail,... and it works really good. I have no problem with different timing and different colors. I observed sometimes that it changes color if I have notifications from different apps.

Also i have light flow...and it manages the notification well...but the colors are wrong...for example orange it's red, or gold it's also red...it seems that purple or pink don't work at all...can you confirm? Or have you some settings that probably i'm missing?

Yes that is same for me, but I only use white, blue, red, green and that color is working correct.
When I should use yellow it's be red, so I chose a light blue instead of yellow.
Maybe honor 7 doesn't support all color.

Thanks for the quick answer mate.. The honor has an rgb led then it should handle all colors.. Maybe the problem it's lightflow.. I'm curious to know if someone who rooted the phone has installed light flow and how it works
Inviato dal mio PLK-L01 utilizzando Tapatalk
I rooted my phone and tried the "root mode" in lightflow unfortunately nothing changes...
How to add notifications for facebook? twitter etc... I tried Light manager and it doesn't seem to work....
I have been testing which colours are supported by the Honor 7 with LED Tester and so far I managed to get these working:
- Yellow
- Orange (visible when charging but not reproduce-able with LED Tester)
- Green
- Baby Blue (Cyan)
- Dark Blue
- Pink (Magenta)
- Purple
- Red
- White
In Bluemail you can set a different LED colour for each account and green/red/cyan are working fine but for some reason all the yellows I pick turn out red or green. I've been testing with hex codes and it seems some hex codes get a different colour for some reason.
I wish we had an official list of what colours (hex codes) are supported by the LED. What would be even better if EMUI would get its own built-in LED manager with an option to set the blinking speed. I agree that 3 seconds is too long, especially since the LED is so deep in the grill and hard to spot.
Has anyone cracked this problem yet?
I came across one, a root app called led manager, as I recall it worked

Thanks a lot and now about how to change default white color of the background in apps, like SMS and all. It is a huge strain for eyes.
Any ideas?

I checked about theming and how to do it but again laziness, was wondering if there was a solution already available without me doing anything...
unfortunateli it is not easy to change the BG color.
As i know, sometimes it is possible to use dark themes to do that for you. But this only work if somebody have insert a color description for your app into this theme file!
Try this one -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p8/themes/theme-black-pyramid-emui-4-0-4-1-t3410407 to see how it work.
But in most cases, something other will get a wrong color.
You only can change colors using a special xml file in your app or in theme file (.hwt for Honor themes)
Please back to topic! Create a own tread for it if necessary!
