Question Notification LED - Sony Xperia 1 III

Hey Guys,
I wonder if the 1 III still has notification light. Anyone saw something?
Greetings

Well, maybe you'll be able to spot it.
I couldn't but most likely it just blends in very well. I watched a similar video on Xperia 1 II and couldn't spot it either (II has the led).
Even more, all the Sony phones I've seen have it. So I will be really surprised and disappointed if 1 III does not.

Light Manager 2 changes the color of the LED but not the flashing frequency

I hope this notification led to be bigger.
Anyone remember great W980 calmshell and its transparent plastic part with orange led inside? This was acting as notification led and looked awesome!
I wonder why they no longer create so beautiful phones like W980
Now we just have a "dot" but it is still better than nothing.
I still hope for xperia 1 Arc flagship, maybe with some of this W980 design?

how do you know what the light means? sometimes i see white and sometimes green (when not charging). all i do know is when charging, orange means charging and green charged.

Red color means battery level is 15% or below.
Orange color means battery level is between 15 - 90% and charging.
Green color means battery level is 90% or higher.
Now different apps may show notifications / blinking notifications with different colors. For example in what's app you can choose what color notification led should have for notifications coming from this app so that tou know it is coming from what's app

Anyone know if there are any other apps to customise the led notification light aside from light manager 2?

Another problem I noticed is the following. When the phone is on standby with the ambient display activated when a new notification comes the screen is not activated although I have selected it in the settings. This of course also happens in Samsung but applications like glimpse notification work there. It does not work on Sony, however. Have you found a solution for this? Also for the ambient display it should have an activation schedule

Sudden contrast increase

All of sudden the contrast on my screen increased to ridiculous amount. I'm getting color banding, even the sign on power on screen is not sharp but has some extra grayish squares around the white letters.
Everything was fine, and after one charging cycle the phone lit up to inform me charging was done and the contrast (and brightness) was all the way up with no way of changing it back.
The 'Auto adjust screen power' option doesn't do anything for me now. Was on stock 2.3.4 KG2 when this happened
I've tried restart, removing battery, factory reset, even reflash (back to 2.3.3 stock, and now I'm on 2.3.4 KG 3stock), nothing works.
Here is screenshot from phone

And here is photo of the same screen (photo quality is horrible, but it should give you idea)
Is there any way how to fix this or do I need to RMA my phone
Where is photo?
Make sure that you are not placing it under some light source which is causing the Auto Brightness to take effect, and also can't you decrease brightness from settings?

The colors and brightness are way off even on manual brightness settings. When I purchased the set and set minimum brightness it was almost unreadable on direct sunlight. Now even with lowest brightness the display is readable without any issues on direct sunlight.
Goto display and set the screen mode to Normal instead of Dynamic.

Don't have Normal there, only Standard, and it was already set on Standard.
Edit: It's not clearly visible on the photo, but the upper part (that's supposed to be full black) is covered with green dots on the display.
I've just experienced this last night, I was comparing the image I saw on my monitor to the SAMOLED and I noticed that the hair color was a very strong orange/red on my phone and its chestnut brown on the screen.. I checked the color mode and its standard.. I was playing around with the phone including rebooting it and it seemed to have gone away.
This was on XXKG6.
h4rr0d, this really looks like a hardware fault to me. Sorry to say, but I advice you to contact Samsung assistance.
Thanks for the replies guys, I've already RMA'd the cell, waiting for the service to respond now.
EDIT: Ok, so I've got the phone back today, the RMA report states they have 'exchanged an electric component', so no clue what it was. But I'm happy I've got my phone back fixed and they actually fixed it without any issues.

Changes them to what?

It just turns them on/off with the exception of changing colors for the notification light.
This is pretty nifty.
Just in case someone was wondering what the use-case for this could be, try this scenario; you're having issues with your LED and you're unsure if it's just the ROM or something is physically wrong with the LED.
This could prove to be quite useful in diagnosing it.
Great work, yousefak
Sweet, I was wondering when something like this would arrive.
Is really like a script that makes my led blink different when I have missed calls or texts. For example it would flash green red green red green red really fast for a missed text, or green green green red red red for a missed call. All over a period of a second or so.

If you want notification led support, try light flow from the android market. I used it before and it works very nicely. You can make it flash colors, change speed, combine colors, etc. for different notifications.

1.yes it has
2.multi colored LED, you can change the colors via that settigns menu you mentioned.
3.in sgs2 BLN is used with touch button lights, so not sure about this part.
anyway sgs3 will be my first mobile with LED notification
Led notification, is for me, one of the best features of the S3. I know, it's something simple, but I think it's great to have it on the S3. It's very helpful...
Hi,
Will it support Lightflow so you can choose which colour for which notification - this is a great feature on my Galaxy Nexus as you can tell whether you have a missed call, email, SMS etc without picking up the phone.
This would make the new smart vibrate function on SIII redundant!
Cheers.
I didn't know that many phone did not have a LED notification. Actually my past couple phones have had them and were very helpful. When I heard this might not I was confused as its a top of the line phone. Different colors for different people and programs = no more randomly turning on your phone.

[App] Fix red eye

The only one red-eye remover that REALLY works!

Store link: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/fix-red-eye/fe6d5935-a2d8-4f1c-9135-113c3e00466c
I decided to write this simple app because when I moved all my pictures from the old Lumia 900 to new 920, I found a few (very rare, actually!) pictures with "red eyes", and full absence of the working apps on the Store! (there are few apps pretended to remove red eyes but all of 'em are not working, at least on my pictures!)
This app is working 100%, try yourself! If something not correct or app can't fix the issue, please let me know here and I'll fix it ASAP!
Red eye removal procedure is easy:
● choose photo to edit;
● adjust yellow circle around the eye by drag & pinch gestures;
● press 'apply' button;
● repeat for the second eye;
● press 'save' button.
You may adjust effect intensity by slider.
Photos will be saved to 'Saved Pictures' or 'Camera Roll' albums, originals will remain unchanged (because of WP8 API limitations).
For the limited period of time application will remain free, so hurry up, share 'Fix red eye' app with friends!
May be, in future (if I found time for that) I'll add algorithm to automatically detect red eyes on the picture (but this one isn't simple!) and will ship $1.33 "plus" version.
Thanks a lot for this app.
Should be apply more darker color rather than green. Nice app indeed
Wherу did you found a "green" color?! There is no "green color" applied; just red pixels values calculated as an average of blue and green: r = (b + g) / 2
Depending of the original picture (and the real eyes color), the resulting eyes may look gray, brown, greenish or with some blue tones.
BTW, the new version with additional slider (to change eye color tone) is ready. Will be published as a paid app ($1.33) a couple of weeks later.
P.S. AREMA, could you please:
- open corrected picture on the desktop and check for "green" color?
- send that picture to me (and tell me what is the correct eye color - I'll do some experiments...)
Thanks!
"Fix red eye" received update to version 1.1. Added WP7.5 support and eye color tint. Enjoy!
No longer free FYI

Question Screen problem when unlocking with fingerprint

I've set up fingerprint app lock. In the unlock screen, the display appears bright on the right and black on the left. Until this morning, everything was always black on these screens. Now I don't know why it turns on the LEDs on the right. The photo exaggerates the effect but it is evident. By setting the brightness to the minimum everything is normal; Raising it a little, it begins to be noticed. This problem is present only on these screens (during the unlock of apps) and nowhere else. How can I fix it?
thank you

Check if Edge Lightning is disabled

I tried to activate and deactivate it but nothing changes. I have also downloaded several apps to test the screen and trying with all types of lighting I don't have any problems. Could it be something related to the fingerprint reader?

Try unlocking with and without DC Dimming. It's in Developer Settings, see if anything changes
It may be a silly suggestion but make sure the lockscreen wallpaper is pure black
This is a common issue with most optical scanners. With somewhat grey background such as yours, the partial lighting up of the amoled can disclose all the uneven calibration. This can be minimised to a greater degree with software updates, like how Apple, Samsung or even Vivo did. In my GT2 Pro this issue is absent in general.
I contacted Realme support and they suggested I send it to the warranty repair center. Could they improve calibration or replace the entire display? Or is it useless to send him for assistance?
