3 Bugs I cannot find fixes for. Gmail LED/Missed Call Notifications, Wireless Chargin - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

I've searched forum plenty, seen replication of these issues and tried suggest fixes, nothing works.
1) Gmail LED. When I get Gmail mail, I get notifications in lock screen and top notifications bar, but no LED light flashes like it does for other apps (example, yellow for unread Snapchat). I've tried enabling various notification permissions.
2) Missed calls. If I miss a call, I have zero notifications of this. I only noticed if I happen to open my Dialer app and I see it in the logs. Otherwise, no notifications on lock screen, nothing at top notifications bar, no LED light, nothing. I've tried suggested fixes like disabling spam caller id.
3) for some reason my phone thinks it is wirelessly charging at random times. I do not own any wirelessly charging devices.
4) double notifications sound and vibrate. See here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s9-plus/help/double-notifications-t3768124
I have Samsung s9+ unlocked, using stock launcher. SAB enabled.
I've tried Samsung support and they don't have a clue. Any help?

Updated with a #4 problem I've found on my phone

I also have the samsung unlocked version and I'm not experiencing any of those problems. I have also read a couple other post about it, I have sab enabled and using stock launcher too. Could it be a carrier thing maybe?

1. I normally use Lightflow for LED control, and get LED notifications, but to try this out I disabled LF and sent myself an email. No notification light. And I don't see anywhere in settings to control this.
2. Ditto for Lightflow. Don't have any missed calls to check without LF at the moment.
3. Haven't noticed this.
4. Haven't noticed this, either.
Check out Lightflow. It really make the LED useful and informative, letting you choose different colors, blink patterns, and vibration patterns (if you want) for each different type of notification.

Yes, Lightflow Pro.
But using LF on Samsung phones is a little weird. There's a version of LF called Lightflow Legacy, which works better on Samsung phones. I think you can just install the legacy version to test it out. If you install the Pro version, it will prompt you to install the legacy version over top of Pro.

Getting Light Flow to Work

After much trial and error. I finally got Light Flow working on my S3. Here's what I did to get it to work :
Go to Setting > Led Notifications, and Only check Missed Events. Leave the others unchecked.
Make sure you disable all LED notifications in the rest of your apps (WhatsApp, GoSMS, etc); you'll need to let Light Flow handle these notifications. In some circumstances you may need to disable the 'screen on, on notification event' option in these apps to get the Light Flow to work.
In Light Flow, if you want to test the color of your notification, in 'Clear Notification Style' select 'App Entered', then scroll down to 'Test Notification', wait for the Pop-up and press the power button (to turn off your screen). Sometimes you might need to wait about 30 secs for the light to appear. This is just to test the color of your notification, Light Flow will still work with the rest of the Clear Notification Styles.
I'm on root, so the above works for me. It might work for non-rooted phones though.
Also, you may notice that not all colors are supported by the S3. Typically, the distinct colors I got are :
Cyan
Blue
White
Green
Indigo
Lime
Yellow
Orange
I tried the custom colors, but the S3 LED seemed to provide some mesh-ed up mix of colors.
I can't find what you mean by " Setting > Led Notifications".
Is that in the system settings, light flow settings, or individual app settings within light flow?
Mine just worked out of box... No fuss.

You should not have to disable notifications in the apps for lightflow to work.
Because Lightflow registers itself as an accessibility tool, it should override any other notifications.
wow.....
all you need to do, OUT OF THE BOX.
Settings, Accessibilty, ------and heres the kicker...Turn on Light Flow, lol
Not to mention light flow keeps asking you to do this all the time!

Guys you know that lightflow has a wake lock problem?
Had it installed and it drained my battery like anything, with it installed lucky to get 8 hours of battery, uninstalled i get 2 days.

It didn't work for me out of the box. Notifications come on but don't turn off, and sometimes come on at random.

I couldn't get it to work on my sgs3 either. Just gave me the green light. The developer website says they're working on getting the US version of the s3 working but it sounds like it has issues with wake locks as well.
anyone else found a similar app that works on the sgs3? I really miss being able to designate any color I want for diferent email, text, missed calls, etc.
Ive never got light flow working properly.
Usually it prevents all notifications working for me but then gives me none of its own. The test is only ever green.
I set all my notifications blue as I only want it for sleep. Last install (this week) it actually worked. It went to sleep too. YAY!
but alas it was not to be. No more notifications the next day.
I only want to put my LED to sleep when I go to sleep. Why is this such a big ask?
It works well for me - but i SOMETIMES get the stock blue flashing light and can't figure out why.

LED Notification Light Mod Request

Quick question here -
On the OG Evo my favorite mod was the WiMax notification mod that enabled the green WiMax light to stay lit when I received a text message.
I know the Evo 4G LTE doesn't have this light. Is it possible to have the blinking notification changed to a constant on? That way it's harder to miss when I get a new text message.
How hard would it be for a developer to make this happen?
Thanks in advance!
And to go along with this could we get a mod so that the notification light doesn't time out after 5 minutes if it hasn't been checked? Kind of a useless light unless you look at your phone every 5 minutes. It is one of the main reasons I switched to Cyanogenmod on my EVO Shift.
The constant on mod would be nice. I wouldn't have to stare as long wondering if it is in fact blinking.
I use Handcent and while it's a little bloated it does allow you to set the charging light to flash when a text is received and also the frequency and color of the flash. It might be an option for you until someone creates a mod.

Wait, the notification light times out after 5 minutes? Seriously? I thought maybe I was just seeing (or not seeing) things. That's irritating.

I also had that app in my Evo. It was from a developer in xda but when I tried to install it, it said was not supported. Wish the developer would redo for us.

I actually really like the stock one that is included in this build. I've had sketchy results with third-party apps in the past and don't really need the extra bloat typically.
Appreciate the suggestion though, that's more along the lines of what I'm interested in. A constant-on notification light would be perfect.

Menu/Settings/Notification Settings/Notification Settings (again)/Check the "LED Plus" box. You should then see a dropdown for LED color (Green or Amber) and another for LED Frequency. Not sure if you have to be rooted to select LED Plus.
I used the wimax notifier on the 4g, but it would be great if a ROM developer could include some tweaks for this!
I use this and it is godly light flow
It takes a while to figure everything out but once you do it's amazing

I'm on 4.2.5 and it's been there through multiple updates. It's possible it wasn't included for the LTE I guess, I'm still using the OG EVO (for now). Maybe someone else can verify. It would be hard to believe they would remove it for certain phones but who knows.

I tried this on my LTE, and it only worked in Direct mode, which gave me very few options. How did you get it to work?

I also tried this and although it works if my phone is silent the light turns off after a couple seconds if my sound is turned on. Also, the light doesn't flash it remains constant which I don't mind at all. However, I need to hear my phone sometimes so until that gets cleared up this isn't an option for me.
Ok for handcent there are a couple things but it does work even on our EVO LTE.
First I don't think the option is called LED Plus any more. To get to those options open up one of your text messages like you are reading it and at the top right side there is a little gear settings button. Click that and select Notification Settings. When you scroll down you will see three settings under the heading "LED Settings"; Blink LED, Color of LED and LED flash frequency. Those settings would have solved our problem. The problem is they are grayed out on our new phones. Bummer. I guess it means handcent isn't fully compatible with Sense 4 yet.
We can get around that though!
Now back out of your messages so that you are at the main screen of handcent where you can see all the contacts who have messaged you. Now press menu> settings>notification settings>notification settings. In here you will see a set of options called reminders. Turn on reminders and make sure the frequency is set for 5 minutes. 5 minutes is when Sense will usually time out a notification. Also, make sure to set the number of reminders to keep repeating so that every 5 minutes you get a new reminder. These reminders seem to restart the notification to your phone. You will get another notification sound/vibration or however you have yours set up and the led light will continue to flash like you just received the message. I don't think there is a way to not have the sound/vibration go off again unless your phone is on silent. Doesn't bother me since if I haven't checked the notification by then that means I still need to be notified.
Another cool thing about handcent is if you like the way the stock messaging app pops up your text on the lock screen handcent can do that too. It's in the options to popup on lockscreen and you also have to check the option for popup on lockscreen fix for some phone on Android 2.2+. You can even check an option somewhere in there so that the popup only shows up on the lockscreen and not when you are using the phone.
With these options I can make handcent function identical to the stock messaging app but have my notification led remain on forever until I clear it. I also turned off notifications for my stock messaging app and under display settings in my phone turned off led notification for sms/mms so handcent is controlling them.
Unfortunately this does nothing for emails, phone calls, etc but really texts are the one thing I need to know about since it is the primary way my wife communicates with me during the day.
I have also tried Light Flow but it doesn't seem to work at all. My notifications still turn off after 5 minutes even in direct mode.

Huawei Ascend G630 does not LED notify light WhatsApp messages

Hello
Ive seen a Huawei Ascend G630 that a friend has and he told me that the notification light when receiving WhatsApp messages does not work. The light is green by WhatsApp configuration.
How can I test the notification light is working correctly? When charging, it does light up.

I have Huawei Acend G630,and I have issue with LED indicator,its only on when charging or when the battery is low..its off for notification,I tried many apps to test it and its not blinking.
My friend have a same phone (just white edition,mine is black) and his LED indicator is blinking on notification.
HELP me,what to do,I had a BlackBerry,and i get used to led indicator,i want it to work on my g630
I'm not sure if this is the same as your problem, but my old phone only had blue and red LEDs, so setting the light color to green would result in nothing. If changing the color doesn't fix it, then I don't really know what the issue is, but you could try using an app such as Light Manager to test out the light.
Tried
Tried with that app and no light works when testing..... maybe a update???
SOLVED!
Install "Notification light widget" from google play store.
Add widget on homescreen and just tap on it.
I dont know whats cause this bug but this widget force LED light to start working.
Then install light manager if you want to edit your light colours
Just Google for every f*****g thing
If this work for you click thans button

OK, on usual devices, just drag your application to the app info icon and when it opens, on the top left corner just below the app name you can toggle on/off notifications. Please let me know if this works.

Well making a new Google Account for this doesn't make sense. Also, the person before had the same Google Account on another phone and the notifications were lit up perfectly on the person's previous phone. Anyways, I DOUBT this has ANYTHING to do with, for example, WhatsApp, notifications.

It sounds odd because by defect it IS activated so why would it be deactivated? Also, with the widget and the light manager app it does not light up either.
There was to be some strange software bug in MIUI playing up here.

The glitch is a side effect of restoring from your Google account to the phone, which is part of the setup process for the phone. The feature downloads apps and settings from the cloud, which is usually a good thing. But in some instances it can tell the phone to restore the notification LED setting from another phone, leaving the light disabled with no way to re-enable it.
Fortunately there's a simple fix for this issue, and it's one that apparently applies to Motorola and some other phones too...
Motorola has released a widget that lets you toggle the notification light on and off, so if you're affected by this bug simply download it, place it on a home screen and toggle it on. After that you can remove the widget and your notification light will continue to work.
I dont know why but this bug comes with old google acc.
My LED was dead(it was on only on charging and batery low,not for notification),and I did factory reset,create new google acc. installed Notification light widget,and LED started to work,then I installed a Light manager for editing colours for notification.
Strange but black G630 have this bug,white G630 LED works perfectly.

Is the widget for activating it when you receive a notification? I might have been doing something stupid as in just toggleing on and off without doinging something.
Im going to turn it on using the widget and then send a WhatsApp to that person and see if it works.

Creating a new Google Account is a overkill and completely out of the question. At most, in the Google account, there has to be a setting to receive notifications. But even then, notifications are received perfectly; It just the light that doesn't turn on!

Is this possible? LED notification question.

I would ONLY like the LED notification to light up Red when charging or turn Green when the battery is fully. I cant stand the other LED notifications blinking especially at night, it bugs the crap outta me plus I used AOD so I don't need the LED notification also. Anyway to do this? Thanks.
you could try the Light Manager app in play store, ive been using it since march and plenty of options for you to turn off mail, messages, calls mms etc i really enjoy the app and it works beautifully

I feel the same. What I did was just block notification access to the light from apps that I don't want to know about, like email. I get email all the time, I don't need a light to blink to tell me I have new emails. So I blocked the notification light access to email.

Holey Light is a LED emulation app. It animates the edges of the camera cut-out (AKA punch-hole) as replacement for the sadly missing LED on many modern devices.
Additionally, it provides a notification display for when the screen is "off", replacing - or working in conjunction with - the Always-On Display feature. As this display is not around the camera hole, it is aptly named the Unholey Light.
Supports all Samsung devices with in-screen camera hole, and several Google Pixels.
Features
Emulates notification LED
Four different display modes: Swirl, Blink, Pie, Unholey Light
Configurable animation size, position, and speed
Customizable color for each notification channel
Selects initial notification color by analyzing dominant color of app icon
Displays during screen "off", sub-1% battery use per hour in Unholey Light mode
Separate configuration modes for different power and screen states
Ability to mark notifications as seen based on various triggers
Respects Do-Not-Disturb and AOD schedules
Can hide AOD completely, partially, and/or keep the clock visible
Additional AOD Helper package for further battery usage reduction
All teh details and all teh sauce!
It's all on GitHub!

There's no selection dialog for a Wi-Fi network / Bluetooth device at all? Have you tried closing/reopening the app? Uninstalling/reinstalling it? Making sure Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are both on and you're connected to something?
I do not know how to link the device/companion app manually, no. Until I needed it to work around a bug in the notification system, I didn't even know it existed.

Try un/reinstalling and rebooting.
I've seen others who use notification access comment it sometimes doesn't start, though I haven't encountered that behavior even once during testing.
Otherwise I don't know. Did you grant all the permissions? Did a device link pop up?
It could of course also be an internal crash. Check logcat.

Neither did I, hah! It actually shows Wi-Fi networks for me too, and selecting one of those worked just as well during testing, so I didn't think it'd matter.
thanks master for your app.
I'm using s10+ exinos and i just want to report that's working.
my device is charging and notification is working fine, got an email for testing. i hope it will work if device is using battery power and screen keeps off if notification comes in.
additional info if it's important: I'm using fingerprint, face and pin security.
thanks again

Can't seem to get it running but I'm super excited about this. Maybe I need to ditch the Samsung edge Lighting
When I tried to perform permission needed 2/4 (link device), I cannot find any device name call "Holey Light" and I only can find the Bluetooth-enable device around me. Do I just need to choose one of them?

Try un/reinstalling and rebooting.
I've seen others who use notification access comment it sometimes doesn't start, though I haven't encountered that behavior even once during testing.
Otherwise I don't know. Did you grant all the permissions? Did a device link pop up?
It could of course also be an internal crash. Check logcat.

I found out that it's working for Gmail and Samsung's Stock Email app, even when locked.
WhatsApp works, but only when unlocked and only when status bar is visible (so not for full screen apps).
Does your app stops the phone from going into deep sleep?
hi,
what shall i need to do to step 2/4?

thanks master for your app.
I'm using s10+ exinos and i just want to report that's working.
my device is charging and notification is working fine, got an email for testing. i hope it will work if device is using battery power and screen keeps off if notification comes in.
additional info if it's important: I'm using fingerprint, face and pin security.
thanks again

how did you passed step 2/4?
It's written in the description what to do. Link it to any Bluetooth or wifi nearby.

Just pick something, it doesn't matter what.

WhatsApp works fine for me, both locked and unlocked, so that's strange. What sort of full screen app did you test with? Might be Android hides the overlay when an app is fullscreen? Note it only works in portrait mode, there's no way to draw in the right place in landscape.
