Can you use the lite or the paying one to personalise a light/colour for a contact, as opposed to or in addition to, applications? (i.e. if a certain person phones/messages/whatsapps etc then a certain colour comes on?)

What does the standard notification light notify you about? Is it plain notifications like an app installed or a reminder or is it just calls , emails, texts? Ive been using the phone for 3 days now, have the pulse notification light setting checked, and h ave not seen that light go on once

You may want to read the original comment that I replied to understand the context of what I was saying.

Also read the fricken title of the post. Many many people did not know about this app before it was posted “for the Galaxy Nexus”.

I have a problem with great apps and devs that get no love or any sort of attention until its in a “G-Nex” post. Believe it or not their WAS a time BEFORE the “ZOMG TEH NFC!!!!” Jesus phone. How about giving some respect to something OTHER than the “G-Nex” hmmm?

Nowhere in the article did it say this app was just recently created for the Galaxy Nexus. The article says and I quote “This app, is awesome for the G-Nex.” What’s the problem with that? Nobody is allowed to talk about apps that work well with new phones? Get off your high horse. Yeah Light Flow has been out for a while…does that mean it can’t be promoted still? Ask the developer(s) how offended they are about the new publicity.

Bottom line…old app that does good things for a new phone…and you have a problem with that?

This is a feature related to accessibility – any new keyboard or input or other feature that interacts with the accessibility stack will trigger this warning. It is only odd in this case because you aren’t actually using the app to enter data – however the notification system is part of accessibility.

You cannot have notification LED and screen on at the same time. If you are missing the option to turn your screen off while plugged in (or if, perhaps, you have a media app running in the background that toggles the ‘keep awake while plugged in’ setting) try installing widgetzoid and adding one of the custom setting single item toggles to your desktop. There is a toggle for that ‘while powered’ setting.

It can drain pretty quick if you have fast blinking enabled and too many notifications on. The nice thing about the app is it will cycle through active notifications (not just show you the latest one)

This app originally surfaced to control Nexus One trackball lighting after direct access methods changed with GB. I do wonder if the color model is more accurate on the GalNex. Will find out later this evening!

Root isn’t needed on the galaxy nexus. Some htc phones require root to change permissions to control the led. You can deny root if you want.

That led listed at the bottom of general settings is the amoled nacklight led. I’ve remobed the option in later versions of the app.

You just have to disable the s6e8aa0 control at the bottom of General Settings, and it should sort that out.

You just have to disable the s6e8aa0 control at the bottom of General Settings, and it will fix this problem. I encourage you to try it again, because I was having the same problems until I found this.

It’s asking, but mine is rooted anyway, so it’s not really an issue for me.
