Notification LED on Xperia Mini Pro, ICS - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hi, I saw that the led notification problem is not quite followed...
Is there a fix for this problem?
In ICS, the led shines only when a SMS, Whatsapp arrive, but doesn't keep shining after that...

Bug in the firmware. No fully working fix yet.

i only saw the led problem when reciving a SMS but only with the screen off if the screen is on the led starts flashing(in green duh) if i turn off the screen it keeps flashing, i have no idea if sony will release a little patch to resolve this but i hope so.
i asked by phone about this and only said me "donload a led app in the play store that should fix it" so o the guys on the phone don't know nothing o they don't care(i say both xD)
i'll try with an app to see if the problem persist then i'll tell what happened

[Q] Is your notification LED working with Handcent or K-9?

Just wondering on this, cos ive read on there that some people got theres working others not. Me i cannot get the LED to work with either handcent on k-9! Anyone? Any work arounds? Same problems? Would be interesting to know. I've flashed several times now and still nothing. x
My LED notifications work but only when the screen is off.
I have handcent set to wake up the screen when a message is received, as soon as the screen turns off the led starts flashing to tell me I've got an unread message.
When I set it not to turn on the screen the led lights up on receiving a message straight away.
I guess this is the way SE intended or the way 2.1 is meant to run...
Yer so someone said. but mines really not working lol. x
LED notifications work fine when the screen's off, this is how it's supposed to be
With K-9 works fine,includind the colors for each email account.
The LED not working for me too .. I even tried to test the LED in the Handcent and no LED was blinking
Any ideas XDAs ?
As far as I tested, notifications are working fine. But I never noticed LED was working only when screen off

Have you tried to close the ambient sensor with your hand? If you're on dark room it should automatically lid. but if you're on the bright room, it is of course turned off. there's an app on Market to monitor the ambient sensor. Play with your thumb above the sensor to see if it's working or not.

well, maybe reflash? dunno for another solution.. if it still persist, maybe you need to reflash with SEUS.. if it still like that, maybe you can ask to Sony Center i guess..

actually my fone fall into the water 1 week ago..than i opened it & than close it after removing water etc.. from whole fone after that its working fine no problem at all..
but keypad lyts not working from last 2 days i think (but lights gets lid when we unlocked the fone either by sliding up the keyboard or by lock key but only for 2-3 secs than go off automatically even in dark)
so i want to know is it hardware problem?? that does not seems to be
or any software problem..
i update via seus 2-3 times but no works
is any other way to light it up the keyboards while we open it & ambient light sensor is also working
i cant find wat to do.. & due to water damage i think warranty also void..
no 1 to help frnds?
is there no 1 to help friends?
my keypad lights are working all are lid but only for few seconds may called it for 2 seconds that also when we unlock the phone either by slideout the keyboard or by pressing the unlock button...
i flash my fone 2-3 tyms by seus but no sollution...
is there any solution via changing drivers etc to enable keyboard lights only when we slideit out without the use of sensor or else..however my sensor is working
or any 1 please provide me there folder files of "sys/devices/platform/msm_pmic_misc_led.0/"
Hmm i don't know any other solution manjeet. But i want to share you the same experience like yours..
I have just reflashed into the normal firmware. but when i tried to test the light by closing the light sensor, i am surprised to know that the keyboard was not lid too! It just works for 1 second when i open the keyboard, and turns off soon. i was in panic then, but i tried to be calm, and when i tried to hide into a dark room, it works again. Fiuhh..
I don't know but maybe you need to really go to the dark places. Seems that the Proximity sensor and Light sensors work in tandem. If it still fails in the dark, then i guess you really need to have it serviced.. Dunno bout the cost, but it shouldn't be too expensive..
Good luck with your u20i bro.
thanx hansip......

blink notification LED when screen is on

Hi, I'm running neutrino rom and I'm trying to find a way for the notification LED to blink even if the screen is on. How can I accomplish this? I've tried lightflow but the LED still only blinks when the screen is off.
I would like this function, since if I have my phone in the dock and the screen has gone to screensaver mode I can't look in the satusbar to see if I have a notification. And since the LED only blinks if the screen is off I have to touch the screen to check and I find that silly to have to do. Sometimes I forget and then hours later I find out a have had missed calls and texts.

I believe our phone is one of those that doesn't blink led with screen on. I know lightflow warns of this as does my handcent. Don't think its possible unless someone else proves me wrong.
that's strange. if I mess with the LED notifaction settings under Cyanogenmod setting I can test the LED notification while the screen is on. Somehow it must be possible.

Is that cm7 or 9? I noticed in 7 the settings just aren't there (for me anyway) to use led for anything other than system default. With 9 I noticed led functions totally different like the charging led working (love that!) So maybe its rom dependent.
I'm running Neutrino CM7. the LED notifcationsettigns are definetly there. maybe it is rom dependant. Does the LED work for you if the screen in on running CM9?

I honestly haven't had a chance to test that with cm9. I load the rom and test the things that I use most in order, wifi, camera. I don't get passed the camera issue on most. That's a bug I can't live with since I take tons of pics. I will try to remember to test it out next time I flash. Im on rc1 of 7 now getting ready to update to rc2, maybe there will be something there. Where did you find the settings for it in neutrino?
Just upgraded to cm7.2 rc2 and found the screen on led setting. Works great for me. Just wish I could get a charging solid led that goes off at 100% I got spoiled from my flipside I guess but its just so much nicer to not have to turn the screen on to verify full charge. Lightflow didn't work for me.

[Q] SE LWW WT19i Notification LED in Gingerbread

Hi, i've got the following question and/or issue. I use stock gingerbread 2.3.4 on my SE LWW and the notification LED behaviour is just weird. When i receive SMS message the LED blinks just one time after screen turns off and thats all. Same thing happens also for missed calls - just one single blink for about 1sec. The expected behaviour would be the LED blinking all the time until i turn on the screen or clear the notification from statusbar (it works that way for low battery warning). My question is - is that a correct behaviour in all SE LWW with stock 2.3.4 (.62 firmware)?
I've already tried LightFlow app from the market and it doesn't seem to work all ok. Sometimes it makes the LED to blink as it supposed to blink, but sometimes it makes it blink with ~2minutes delay and then stops blinking after about 1-2minutes.
Let me ask you that: did you maybe upgraded to ICS and then went back to GB?
If so, did you wipe data while downgrading to GB?
That could be the problem.
Nope. I've bought my LWW with stock 2.3.4 and haven't upgrade to ICS. The led behaves this way since i've bought that phone.
Then try a software repair with PC Companion. If that doesn't work, you should claim for your warranty.
So i guess in your LWW led was working normally in gingerbread (blinking all the time till the notification is cleared)?
I have a Mini, but as far as I know the LED works same way on LWW. Anyway, wait for someone to confirm that.
I've just asked sony's customer support how the notification LED should work in LWW and i'm kinda confused. I was told that LED works just fine in my LWW - it should stop blinking when screen is turned off. It would be great if someone with LWW could confirm this.
I think it was, that if you receive a notification, LED stays on until you turn the screen on. If you turn the screen off, LED stops, even if notification is still there.
I am not sure, I can't remember anymore on my LWW.
@Someguyfromhell
Thanks for reply! Well, my doesn't stay on at all. Lets say i've received a message or i missed a call (screen was off), then LED flashes only one time and thats all (i haven't turned the screen on).

Well that's what happens on Mini too. If the display is off when the SMS arrives, LED starts blinking. If you turn on the display, LED stops blinking even if you con't read the SMS. And if the SMS arrives with the display turned on, LED doen not blink at all.

same on my Stock 2.3.4 LwW as well.
I was just in the store where i've bought my LWW. I asked the seller if i could check the notification LED in other LWW. As i've thought it works just fine - when screen is turned off it flashes continously with green color. Seems like something is wrong with my LWW then... i'll try software repair in pc companion and if that doesn't help i'll claim for warranty.
Thanks for help!

Oh God, I told you to do that hours ago xD
Hopefully, everything will be fine
Yea i know that I just wanted to be sure how LED should work in LWW.
I've switched between ICS & Gingerbread many times. Now i'm on ICS. When i recieve any misscall LED beeps continuously, till removing the notification. but it doesn't happen for SMS or Email . I think its normal.

Problem with LED. notification light

i have a strange problem. i have used all previous versions of dragon jb till 1.8.
In last 3 roms ( dragon. JB 1.6, 1.7& 1.8) whenever i connect the charger red LED light is on showing carging but when i disconnect it the light remains on as red light for long time.
When there is full charging the light turns green during connecting to charger but after disconnecting, it remain on as green light. when i use mobile this LED turns off but afer locking again LED red or green depending upon the charging status agains turns on.
i considered it as hardware problem initially but when i changed rom. (flashed Turkbey rom V7) for testing it, the problem resolved.
now when i remove charger the LED notification light turns off immediately which was not with dragon rom. its strage thing for me. if it would be a hardware problem then after changing the rom , it should persist
Is this a rom problem?
Does anyone else had this problem?
please suggest me a solution if you can
Thanks and regards

why don't you go back to stock Rom and check
My advice is to ask in the thread of the Rom you downloaded. Maybe someone in there can help
Also why not try Light Manager-LED Settings from the Google Play Store https://play.google.com/store/apps/...anager&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd
Hope This Helps

i have asked in the rom thread but no one else has this issue.
the point which i want to ask is that either it is a software problem or hardware problem? most of people say it is hardware problem but then why this is solved while changing rom? if it is a software problem then is there any solution for it or not?
