Just downloaded the Lollipop Update now it won't notify me of text messages!

I have a galaxy s5 and just downloaded the new update.
Before the update when I was in silent mode my phone would light up and then the LED light would flash when I got a text message. Now when I'm in silent mode nothing happens and I have to turn on the screen to see if I have a message. How can I change this?

I just found the answer to this myself—apparently now you need to turn on vibration/sound to get LED notifications. The LED is disabled in silent mode. Ridiculous.

I can't post links, but Samsung's support page on this is called "LED Notification Not Displaying After Upgrading To Android 5.0 Lollipop." Google that.

I can't believe they reclassified the notification LED as not silent. Never heard a peep out of it myself.
