LED App for SIII

[OnePalmAddict]

Can anyone recommend an app that effectively controls the SIII LED (i.e., different colors, patterns, etc., for specific functions, notifications, or apps)?

Thanks!

I never had the open folder issue with Light Flow, but it did drain the battery faster than a 69 GTO 445 with the pedal to the metal.

depends how you set it up mate. i have it set to have solid ON light (so it doesnt keep waking the system to say "turn on" "turn off" and colours set very dark, just visible, and it doesnt use much batt

I may have to give it another try, never thought to do that.

No issue with speaking folders with Nova Launcher... although I did with TouchWiz. Glad I got it for 25?

oh yeah, maybe it was just with touchwiz.
aye the $0.25 (?0.25 [which isnt very fair but hey]) sale was what made me finaly make the move from Go Launcher to Nova Prime.

Light Flow is hot garbage on my non-rooted s747-i747m. Doesn't work at all and drains the battery like nobodies business. It's a shame because I came from the BlackBerry world and there's an app called Bebuzz that is awesome at customizing the LED. Believe it or not, BlackBerry is actually better at some things than Android.

light flow uses barely any of my battery since i set all my colours really dark and turned flashing off

I can't even get it to work on NA S3 period. I'm guessing the dev of this app has given up getting it working for non-rooted NA versions. I really should get my money back.

 

[funkylogik]

its working for some.
contact the dev' mate he seems like a decent dude

Not sure, which is why I was asking if anyone had tried it. Reviews are decent overall, although there are some mixed reviews from SIII users. I just switched to a Verizon SIII from Sprint and I just got some porting issues resolved. So I'm just sniffing around before I add any apps that are know to be unstable or problematic.

Read all the way to the bottom of the description for more details of specific devices. Wonder why getting control of the LED is such a hard thing? Sure makes me miss Butler on my old Palm devices.
