Any way to turn off the notify light at night? Really bothers me...

Yup
Settings > LED indicator > Uncheck Charging/Missed Event
What does it do? I haven't gotten mine yet, hopefully today.

Thanks. But I wish to have the LED work during the day but not at night. Was hoping I wouldn't have to deactivate it each night...
I just put my phone face down on my night stand. I didn't realize how bright the notification light was until I received an email after laying down.

black tape it or use permanent marker
Hello,
I think ales47 is searching for the possibility to turn off LED only while charging. Otherwise, in normal use, he wants the LED to work normally.
Is it possible to turn off the LED only while charging phone?
Yeah i too think of the same thing. actually the green light is very much bright than the yellow one. i have to keep it upside down to keep the light off. other than that i have no idea to consider you.
or you have to use a light form or something (that it wont hurt the screen) when you charge. and the miss call notification is very annoying at night too. every flash will kill your sleep slowly. i have to clear the notifications before i sleep.
Any other suggestions?

Seriously, you are very helpful to us
haven't tried it out myself, but in settings - profiles you select a profile, and the last option PHONE, the last option again is LIGHTS MODE and is set in no override.
You could create a profile for the night with the setting switched to OFF.
Hope it works

I once tried the profile thing but i had no notifications. but this is regarding a light steadily lighting. i guess it is for the notifications only.
I don't know why it bothers you at night... at some point I can't even sleep without having light on phone... Put a tape over the LED? I just think it's not possible to change this...
Hey bro you really should search before starting a new thread
Have a look at this, i suggest you read the whole topic.

Is there a way to not have the led indicator on the side flash when emails arrive? I keep my tablet in a cradle on my nightstand and the flashing light wakes me up in the middle of the night if an email comes in. I've tried everything I can think of.
Thanks,
Roger
Turn off wifi?
Light Flow app on the Market.
Light Flow worked great. Thanks
Roger
If memory serves me correctly there is a setting somewhere which was something like
"Turn off notifications until......"
Not with the tablet at the moment but I'll double check later.

Yes there is such option during email account set up but I can't find it after set up.
I have a question regarding the LED, too:
Is it a multicolor LED, so can I change the color using Lightflow for notifications (calender, email...)?
Thanks

Light Flow in market. Lite version is probably adequate.

It seems that the Turn off notification only appears during account set up. So you can delete the account and turn off the notification during account re-set up.

To clarify, yes, it is multicolour but not all the colours in Light Flow line up exactly with what colour the Sony displays. Red colours particularly seem to be displayed much lighter than usual on the Tablet.
Thanks for clarifying this!
Does anyone know what the flashing blue LED means? And is there a way to disable it, at night it can be very bright!
Paul
Probably some useful info in the user guide http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/model/GT-I9300MBASWC-downloads?isManualDownload=true

Nope, nothing in the manual that refers to the Blue Flashing LED.
Paul
Do you have anything enabled in the LED light settings that would explain why it's flashing?

Please read again.
Settings -> LED Settings
Red is low battery and/or charging
Green is fully charged
Flashing blue means there is a notification of some sort.
Thanks Lenny,
The manual does not help:
●● Missed event: Set to turn on the service light when you have missed calls, messages, or notifications.
Doesnt say "Blue" anywhere so not exactly easy to find!
Paul
It's blue for every app notification unless you have light flow installed so you'll have to work out which app is notifying you
Usually I've forgotten to read an email or text message though - annoying though when you can't track it down

Trying light flow as that does exactly what I require.
Thanks very much.

I use calendar snooze for my appointment reminders, and I set it to flash red for them.
I have been looking in Tasker if there is a setting there to turn reminders off while my 'night' setting is active. I also find them annoying during the night, but haven't been able to find a setting there yet. Anyone got any ideas?
what has to be done or there's an app that's already out, the led has to flash for a certain time and it turns off. constant flashing will piss people off and may possibly kill the battery

If you really think about it though, that flashing light probably consumes less battery then you having to turn on the screen to see if you have a new notification that you might have missed. Even if your screen is on for 5 seconds it is still waking up the phone and causing it time for it to fall back into sleep.
After much trial and error. I finally got Light Flow working on my S3. Here's what I did to get it to work :
Go to Setting > Led Notifications, and Only check Missed Events. Leave the others unchecked.
Make sure you disable all LED notifications in the rest of your apps (WhatsApp, GoSMS, etc); you'll need to let Light Flow handle these notifications. In some circumstances you may need to disable the 'screen on, on notification event' option in these apps to get the Light Flow to work.
In Light Flow, if you want to test the color of your notification, in 'Clear Notification Style' select 'App Entered', then scroll down to 'Test Notification', wait for the Pop-up and press the power button (to turn off your screen). Sometimes you might need to wait about 30 secs for the light to appear. This is just to test the color of your notification, Light Flow will still work with the rest of the Clear Notification Styles.
I'm on root, so the above works for me. It might work for non-rooted phones though.
Also, you may notice that not all colors are supported by the S3. Typically, the distinct colors I got are :
Cyan
Blue
White
Green
Indigo
Lime
Yellow
Orange
I tried the custom colors, but the S3 LED seemed to provide some mesh-ed up mix of colors.
I can't find what you mean by " Setting > Led Notifications".
Is that in the system settings, light flow settings, or individual app settings within light flow?
Mine just worked out of box... No fuss.

You should not have to disable notifications in the apps for lightflow to work.
Because Lightflow registers itself as an accessibility tool, it should override any other notifications.
wow.....
all you need to do, OUT OF THE BOX.
Settings, Accessibilty, ------and heres the kicker...Turn on Light Flow, lol
Not to mention light flow keeps asking you to do this all the time!

Guys you know that lightflow has a wake lock problem?
Had it installed and it drained my battery like anything, with it installed lucky to get 8 hours of battery, uninstalled i get 2 days.

It didn't work for me out of the box. Notifications come on but don't turn off, and sometimes come on at random.

I couldn't get it to work on my sgs3 either. Just gave me the green light. The developer website says they're working on getting the US version of the s3 working but it sounds like it has issues with wake locks as well.
anyone else found a similar app that works on the sgs3? I really miss being able to designate any color I want for diferent email, text, missed calls, etc.
Ive never got light flow working properly.
Usually it prevents all notifications working for me but then gives me none of its own. The test is only ever green.
I set all my notifications blue as I only want it for sleep. Last install (this week) it actually worked. It went to sleep too. YAY!
but alas it was not to be. No more notifications the next day.
I only want to put my LED to sleep when I go to sleep. Why is this such a big ask?
It works well for me - but i SOMETIMES get the stock blue flashing light and can't figure out why.
Hi folks!
I installed night mode app for my xperia u. it reduces the brightnes of the screen and turns off the light strip. However one time, when I used night mode one night, lol, the brightness was reduced, BUT the light bar was still on! I checked all the settings and done all I can, but it was still there. I had to do a factory reset to fix it. I'm worried this might happen again, what do you guys think happened and how to prevent it?
Thank you!!

Yeah, I have tried that. But considering to ditch night mode. Do you think night mode caused that issue regarding the light bar?
