LED Notification Light not always working

[mikewelch5]

Where in the options is the LED notifications? Should one be on when it is charging? I have seen a few pics with a green light on the bottom of the phone, but I have yet to see anything...

I can't get it to light up at all? is there a setting Im missing

My first GN had this problem. The LED light wasn't always going off when It should have but my second one seems to be working great. It could be because the update from yesterday? I don't know, but I haven't noticed the problem anymore.

I downloaded Light Flow lite as others have mentioned and I got it to work great.
However I realized that it wouldn't turn off after I checked the notification. I changed the notification clear style to when the screen comes on instead of when the applications opens and now it works great.

My notification light doesn't seem to work at all. I've got light flow and nothing. I've restarted and everything anybody else?

Is there a way to set alert colors for different apps? Love the big blinky light but would like to control the colors.

I'm having the same problem guys. I've only seen mine glow white once or twice when I got a text message.....I'm sure its just a minor bug that they will fix........until then I'll download that one program people are talking about.

Light Flow does this as well. Really no reason not to get it if you want to get the most out of your LED.

Light flow seems to be working perfectly now. Constant notifications and different colors by type.

LED not working here either.

Edit: I installed Light Flow and got the LED to work, but when I uninstall it won't work.

Try disabling and reenabling the pulse notification in settings. I think that may have fixed mine.

This fixed it for me. I randomly got a "No SIM card" error two nights ago. Pulled the battery and my sim card worked after that, but my LED notifications stopped working. Hopefully they'll continue to work.

I have noticed a few times where the LED doesn't light up, even with Light Flow. I have to go back into Light Flow and back out and it works again...I hope it's a bug that can/will be fixed.

Is the LED supposed to come on when charging by default?

Just installed Light Flow. Hopefully it works as advertised!

This is something simple that I miss from my X...I also this with my X there was a similar issue that was solved with an update of some sort..

I picked up my Nexus yesterday, my flash indicator appears to be working fine.

I'm running into a different issue where my LED seems to be broken/burned (is that even possible)? It was working fine for the past 2 weeks and since the last 2 days, the only color I can get out of it is white with a greenish-purpulish hue which is not bright at all. Before that, the white notification would light up my bedroom at night (litterally) and I had various colors (blue, purple, green, etc.) when charging, now it's always the same weird, faint color.

Is it possible for this thing to break after only 2 weeks? I was using the "Galaxy Nexus LED" application to manage it (simple app that did what I wanted it to do, no need for Light Flow).

I have a BSE skin on my screen, if that makes any difference (have had it since day 1 or so).

I tried rebooting, removing battery, deinstalling LED related apps, etc... Still won't give me anything but that weird, faint whitish looking color.

Help anyone?

I think (stock) its just suppose to blink when the screen is off
