Quick question. Does anyone find that their led doesn't blink with non stock apps? Like I have gosms and the led lights up and stays lite instead of blinking same with like yahoo mail. I also notice if I use say lightflow and pick say "blue" for an led color the color will show up "red" no matter what color I select it will show up a different color on the led. I just find this weird.

I havn't had any issues with the Gmail app. But I do know that setting g custom LED settings in certain apps can sometimes make the LED act funny you may want to check settings in individual apps.

Uninstall Light Flow and you will be all set. It has some bugs with the S3 sadly. The dev knows about it and will fix it in the next update.

I have read that it is a known bug. Hopefully it gets fixed in the next OTA update.

glad I wasn't the only one and was able to check to see others are dealing with the same. I just got my verizon phone yesterday and it has been driving me bonkers tryingt o figure out why it wasn't working! I knew I wasn't that android ignorant!
Not sure if the latest light flow fixes this, but a brand, spanking new release is out!

I only found one so far that works. Its called "LED me know BETA"
You need to disable compatibility mode and it works.
Any others? Would be nice if I could change google voice notification light but guess that's not too possible. Gah they really need to improve their app

I remember using Missed Call awhile back
I don't use it anymore and just stick with the stock colors
but it worked well for me
Phone will make random sounds and I had no idea why lol. Like I just opened xda app and a Damn bell rang. Been using xda and hasn't done that before. No notifications or anything. Orange notification also comes on for no apparent reason. School me please and don't flame me lol....I'm new to ICS so.......

If you're using the new Google+ app on your phone, Google have recently changed how notifications show. The Notification LED will glow a redish-orange now (similar to the colour of the icon). I'm not sure if this could be it if there's no notifications visible though...
Does anyone know how many different colors the front status LED can create. I'm interested to know because it would be a great hack to have different colors for different notifications, etc.
Try light flow app to see which are available

From what I can tell, at least five or six. There's a LED Tester app on the Play Store that's free where you can try different colors. There's also a free/paid app called Light Flow that allows you to set very specific notifications on an app/event basis. Both currently have issues displaying the correct colors and at last Light Flow is being updated soon to support the S3. See http://www.folioflow.com/ff/page/website/lightflow/pageId/1826 for progress updates.
Hope this helps!
Thanks, exactly what I needed to know.

Last I heard light flow has a lot of bugs for the s3. So just keep that in mind! It could also have been patched by now too. So look into it.

anyone know why certain threads in stock SMS have the contacts name appear in blue rather than white? cant figure it out for the life of me.
also does everyone else sms start at the bottom (earliest) thread rather than the top. i have to scroll up every time i open the app.
Been wondering the same **** lol
I've noticed the same. Except which ones are blue seems to be totally random.
I figured it was a small unfortunate glitch.
maybe facebook contacts? i dont have this problem nor a facebook so, maybe thats why?

No it doesn't seem to be Facebook either. I have non Facebook and Facebook contacts in blue

Starred in Android? Favorites? Phone contacts?
its totally random and now that i think about it, i haven't seen a blue thread in days. I wonder if its coverage related?
Did anyone flash Mad Industries ICS Blue toggles from the VZW dev section? I thought thats what did it because I noticed this after I flashed that Mod. On my phone the 2nd, 3rd and 4th threads in my Messaging app have it but all others are regular. Then if I delete a thread and a different one moves into one of those positions that name becomes blue. I dont really mind it and if it is that Mod that did it I dont care even less cuz that ICS Blue toggle mod is the shiz!
The blue threads aren't the ones where the last text in the thread is yours?

It's texts you haven't responded to, or have a draft outstanding. Take a blue one and start a response, it goes to white. Delete your text good back to blue

yeah its definitely not the last one you responded to. that doesnt seem to make a difference for me. i did notice that over usage time everyone of my threads turned blue even days old messages with no activity that were previously white. then upon restart of the phone its back to a mix.
One of the best features of Samsung is their use of RGB LED's for notifications. I was sad to see that there is not customization of the LED and was wondering what my options are? I have ROOT access with locked bootloader and found a few apps (LightFlow is one) in the play store but they seem not compatible with the Note 2. Does anyone have any tips or methods to get custom LED notifications going? I know I am not the only one who wants a color other than blue for all notifications.

Nice works pretty well, thanks! The LED is not that great at making colors but it at least open it up to a few more options for personalization.
Light Flow that I purchased when I had my GNex also works, though the colors are a little off from the Gnex, at least for me. Orange is showing up as yellow.
