My light flow app isn't working very well on the Note 8. Does anyone have any suggestions for a good replacement?
 
re:

Are you using the Legacy version? Lightflow devs recommend using Legacy for Samsung devices.

I am. I finally got the LED's to light and now the tesla unread isn't reading them all correctly and the notifications aren't clearing....ugh I WILL get this.
 
Re:

LOL I tried light manager and couldn't get that one to work either. Might just be my phone. I might try to factory reset and fresh install instead of smart switch.

it's okay to smart switch some things, but not apps. start with fresh apps, even if it is a pain, so that you can make sure not to carry forward any troubles from your previous phone. especially where apps that hack, etc. are concerned. load your apps one at a time and make sure there aren't conflicts before loading the next. it's a pain, but I've had far fewer issues since doing this. jmo
 
Two things with Light Manager. First you have to allow it two things. First is to not optimize it for battery.

Second you have to give it notification access.

And third, if you use Textra like I do, you have to disable Textras notification light by setting it to none.

Included all three screenshots. Remember that it works until you see the notification. Then it goes away.

I use light manager and have it set up to give me different color notification for certain apps. It works perfectly for me.
 
I don't even have that last screen on mine. It doesn't give me the option. That's one thing I am not too happy with. It's really difficult to customize the notifications on mine.
