Notification led - Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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:

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!

[MOD] mix trackball colors notifications - updated for cm-5.0.6

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?

Updated code for 5.0.6 is in github:

I can release an updated services.jar file for 5.0.6 if that would help.

Blink

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 will try to find what's going wrong tomorrow.

@XperianPro
When i change my wallpaper p.ex. for a yellow one, i still have the light bar displaying the Blue Light from the Blue Theme...
I think that this app makes the lightbar display the colour based on the Wallpaper and not based on the Theme...
Gotta try the app
This thing works ! Great job stracian! Now if you could add an option to crop the pic it would be great.

Well app works great.

Works well for me. You can also change back to another wallpaper the regular way and keep the colour led's. Nice option for unrooted users.
Thanks!
EDIT:
When using dark pictures, like black ones with only a few colour elements the average is very dark, resulting in the bar lighting up at lowest brightness. Not really a problem for me, just wanted to give some feedback.

You download the apk file and once done, you tap on the file and it asks you for installing. Did you allowed installing unsigned apps ?

@ououououo:
thank you, yes i need any feedback i know, that is like you describe. i dont know for now, how to drop color from grey scale if detect.
I can't install this, it says "application not installed". Any suggestions? I have installing unsigned apps enabled.

Any ideas how to change my colour?

Notification LED color ?

Anyone else think notification LED on alpha doesn't show proper color ?
(Red,Green,Blue work fine but if I use something like yellow color look like greenish yellow; purple become blueish)
My previous device (Galaxy S3) doesn't have that kind of problem.

Hi,
Is this the same as the High Contrast theme in Oreo?
Or is it the colour inversion that turns colours into ugly hues?
Would you pls also let me know if it is a system wide one? Meaning dark notifications as well?
Thanks.

Sorry, but can you pls reconfirm if it is system wide black theme including notification as well? If you don't mind me telling, your answer is a bit ambiguous.
Installing and updating substratum themes are a chore which I would rather not indulge in.

It's not substratum theme. The stock rom has no black theme with black notifications, just black theme like the G8 theme from play store, with white notifications or the high contrast theme, also with white notifications. Substratum does not work for me, it's pain in the a** on pie.
im using mark benzce pixel experience dark theme on v30 oreo. i didnt do anything just installed app
and it has dark notifications also
same theme has different version for g8
and it has also dark notifications

Judging by the package name of the theme, I'd guess you are the Dev behind them. I have two questions for you
1. Is the Dual-Sim switcher themed too in black notification variant?
2. Is there an accent-color switcher somewhere ? If not, are there any color variants possible (I'd take anything non-blue for QS switcher - red, grey, orange )?

If you want a black theme for V30 on pie, this one works good, it does all notification in Black and blacks out everything. I used a few others, but are not compatible for pie so i went looing for one that did and found this one.. This one when you download, you press on the app and gives you the option pie or oreo (screenshot) then it asks for permissions based on each firmware and does its thing. It works, even on lockscreen and notifications everythign is black. Ill attach pics
