I am rooted and running MIUIs alpha 4 rom but this voice mail notification is driving me crazy. I can live with it but I am pretty sure it has something to do with my green led light coming on when i turn my phones screen off. It doesn't even blink but, stays solid green until I turn my phone back on go to notifications menu and then turn phone off again.
I have searched around and I saw the fix where you go to an old cdma phone and call yourself to clear it but, when I try that they are trying to change my plan and I dont have any other phones to do so.

thats where this phone sucks, the led. it keeps flashing if there's no notifications, and Google Talk keeps it flashing m the time.. bc if you're in a chat and get a message, it starts blinking and then won't stop ever. but there's no option to shut it off. anyone have any idea if there's a way?

It appears all you can do is disable the notifications all together...
Same thing kept happening to me, drove me nuts. Give the status bar a quick swipe down. Once I did that, the light quit blinking immediately.
doesn't do it for me lol the only way to stop it is make a call
I cant figure out why my phone keeps blinking its notification light. Any one have an idea why?
Most likely a rogue app acting up.
ok thanks for the response
If I may add to this topic without creating a new one, how come my blinking light for notifications will stop after about a minute or so? I recieved some texts but didn't know it until I manually turned my screen on. So I sent myself an email, and it blinked for a minute or so, then stopped. Is this normal?
i actually think that is suppose to happen. Ever htc phone i have had has a certain duration of the notification light blinking and then it will turn off. the only phone i have ever had it go on until i checked the notification is my old droid. i was apply to on the galaxy nexus, but had to use an app to make it work. Light flow is the app

It's actually 5 minutes I think, at least on my phone it is. It is my biggest complaint with Sense and why I switched to cyanogenmod on my evo shift. It would be the one reason I would switch to the GS3 if I had to think of a reason since there are nice solutions that use an amoled screen for notifications that will not time out like that. (an app called noLed, doesn't work well unless you use amoled))
Anyway, it must be coded real deep because I've never seen a dev fix it or even hardly mention it and people have complained about it for years.
It really makes the notification light kind of worthless.
There are some apps like light flow that in theory can fix it but lightflow doesn't work for me when my sound is turned on with this phone so it's worthless right now. Missed reminder might be able to help as well but I haven't had a chance to try it.
Unrelated, but does anyone know how to disable the bright green light when battery is charged? lol
Hi All,
I noticed that after not touching my phone for awhile (say an hour), any LED notifications for things such as email or missed texts don't light up the green notification light on my phone. It works great if my phone was somewhat used within say the last 30 minutes, but once I wake up in the morning and unlock my phone, I see my missed texts and at that time it lights up the green LED. I have all my LED notification settings set to on. Am I missing something? I hope this is not normal, otherwise what's the point with an LED light?
Well first thing...the device actually only will show a notification for 5 min w/ the blinking light. Then it just stops until the next one comes in.
You also could be experiencing the wifi data bug I am seeing...the one where you basically lose your connection to wifi just by being connected. It doesn't tell you that you have no data connection, it just randomly drops off.
Wow. Only 5 minutes? Is that normal for Android phones or is that an Sense thing? I've had other Android phones before in the past, but with no notification light.
Just got a refurbished ATT HTC One X+, right away unlocked bootloader, twrp recovery, flashed latest colored version elegancia rom to be right back to where i was. Everything is fine but noticing the green led notification light is buggy!
When i get a missed call the green led light just stays full lit, does not blink just stay on until i check my device and after i see the missed call the green light finally turns off.
When i get a text message it blinks like normal. When i wake up the device though the green led stays fully lit and does not turn off until i check the new text message.
When i get a new e-mail i get ZERO led notification light!
Problem is that i didn't mess with this device when it came in the mail to see if it was working before so have nothing to compare it to. I do install the rom with full wipe to be safe and everything else seems to be working as it should. I'm sure i could try a full factory reset but just hate to erase everything from SD card and go through all that so saving that as a last resort option.
I do have under settings all the stock settings and using stock HTC messaging app and dialer/phone. Under LED notifications all are checked but not working as it should.
Not sure if there is a fix someone could direct me too or just got a bunk refurbished device? Trying to now get ANOTHER refurbished device replacement but will create another thread on that.
I keep my phone on silent at night because I have a super jealous partner that freaks out if my phone dings or vibrates late at night. This isn't a problem when my screen is turned off, since the notification light comes on, but I use my phone for gaming, reading and watching movies/tv shows so the screen is on quite often and unless my notification bar is visible (which is usually not the case), I have no idea when I get a text/tweet/game notification/etc. So my question is this: Is there a trick or app out there that will make my notification light work even when the screen is turned on?
I'm still running the stock OS that came on the phone (4.3 I believe?) and I'm unrooted, however I'm not opposed to manually upgrading to 5.1 and/or rooting if necessary
Thanks in advance XD
I actually returned the Moto X Play because the LED notification light didn't work at all even though it's present on the phone. Motorola are a bunch of greedy assholes who want you to buy their "smart watch" just to get notifications now apparently, but that's a whole other topic. During my quest for an on-screen notification I found Light Flow, and I'm almost positive you'll find help with that.
