hey guys,
i have this sorta weird issue where my phones light bar is not working properly. i looked all over the thread but couldnt find anyone with this same issue.
i flashed a AOKP custom rom recently, im loving the speed, everythings awesome, but the led bars dont work. the normal theme colour thingie is off, which is understandable, but the illumination bar notification app also doesnt work, and the light bars dont work when i use the walkman that i installed later. but weirdly, u-disco can control the lights, and they also light up along with the notification led for phone notifications like low battery, or battery charging.
i was wondering if anycould suggest a way to get at least some of the functionality back.?
im sure that 3rd party apps can control the light bar cuz u disco pulled it off.
any help would be greatly appreciated

What's your phone? If your phone is Xperia U, search for Xperia U illumination files and download and get ADB server because the RunMe.bat should only be work with ADB and place all files in ADB folder. Then run the RunMe.bat twice in order to be sure. If it's done, now you can get illumination with illumination bar notification app.
That's all? No! You would like to set theme in illumination bar notification but it always turning off.
Now you change your display settings. Follow this fix which is not mine.
ILUMINATION BAR FIX FOR UNLOCKED BOOTLADER
i've solved the brightness bug!!!
- settings --> display --> brightness
- set brightness to min level
- settings --> display --> automatic backlight --> light levels --> edit other levels
- set every "screen" and "button" cells to "255" value
- click "save & apply"
- settings --> display --> automatic backlight --> light levels
- check "use custom" box

As you know, automatic brightness has been disabled by default and you cannot enable nor does it have the option.
Here's what you can simply do to enable autobrightness on your xperia s:
1) Head over to the market
2) Search for SPARE PARTS application.
3) Run it, then scroll down to brightness and tick AUTOMATIC
4) Download NOTIFICATION TOGGLE application by j4velin from the market (OR any power widget/brightness application that presents you the option to tick auto-brightness)
5) Enable the brightness toggle
6) Click the brightness toggle you have set, and set it to 18% (REQUIRED to make autobright ness work - this is the lowest sensor value it can read)
7) Finally, tick the choice to choose automatic.
6) And this is how to get autobrightness without root, enjoy your beautiful screen wherever you go in any situation, day or night
confirmed working here, thanks!
confirmed working here to, tho i didn't do the last step 'install notification toggle' it ruins my drop down bar.
Nice find!

It's on by default.
No root required, just a working phone.
Also, this doesn't belong here, as you suggested apps, nothing you actually developed...so it should actually go into the "Themes and Apps" Section.
You pretty much just pointed out a widget that can turn it off which could be done anyways by several apps.
A little bit improvement...
I had installed SPARE PARTS and activated the automatic brightness...
And I also installed Notification Toggle, however I not really like it since it really will ruin my drop down notification...
So I chose to use Brightness Level...
BUT!!!
For my case, if I adjust the brightness to MORE than 50% before and then directly pick auto brightness (multiple tests in both Brightness Level and Notification Toggle), it will no "Auto-Brightness" adjustment.
Addition: If initial brightness is 0% and then directly choose autobrightness will have same problem.
I do need to either do in these 2 ways:
1) toggle the Xperia S preset toggle widget: turn off the backlight (the widget which can toggle wifi, bluetooth...)
OR
2) set the initial brightness between 1 to 50%...then just change to autobrightness...
P.S: I dunno is my illusion or not, if I change to 25% at the beginning then autoB, the brightness will not drop less than it while I close my room's light...XD

yes, the lowest the sensor can go is 18% (confirmed), so for auto-brightness to work at its best, set to 18 then click auto, first post updated =)
Working!
Thanx dear! Its working!
thanks

My problem is that I can't turn it OFF...I hate the Xperia S auto-brightness...it's so slow and not smooth at all...it's like varying from 10% to 10% and it never stops varying!!so annoying!...initially I even thought it was a screen/light problem until I noted "ohh...this is not a screen problem, is just an awful auto-brightness"
not working ,,, root and unlocking bootloader , custom rom and kernal
any advice >?
and thx for hard work
Thank you for sharing
Hello, when i search "spare parts" on google play, i only found the "spare parts plus!" app. But the problem is this app doesnt have the autobrightness option. Anyone knows where i can find the spare parts app that have the option???
Thanks a lot.
it's on by default on my default ics 4.0.4 xperia
its working thanks
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!

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.
Hello,
I've searched for a solution to turn off the LED bar for quite some time, but all the solutions via apps like LEDs-U-CTRL or uninstalling the sony.illumination.service package or removing the /system/apps/SemcIllumination.apk or the terminal commands from this thread don't work for me. Maybe because I've flashed the FXP152... The two packages don't exist.
Is there any other way to disable the LEDs? What versions of FXP support disabling the LEDs?
Thanks in advance!
yes u can disable ..

reply me if it doesnt work..
I can't believe it! It really works!
Thanks!
In FXP 210a the LED bar is finally completely off. Thanks to that my phone used only 2% of battery in the last 11 hours. Well... without using the phone much (sleeping for about 7 hours) and Wifi off. The Governor at "on demand" set to 200-400 MHz. :cyclops:
(of cause the LED bar will still blink at a custom frequency with a custom color when I get a message.)
btw: When the LED was always on the percentage went down every few minutes... It almost halves the duration of the battery when using the phone all day.
*Don't mind me reporting how things were progressing*

bro you know how turn off illumination bar of xperia u permanent, without apps? please tell me
Use illumination bar notification app (search urself) and on choosing the color of the theme of that app, don't slide non of the red, green and blue and then, save it. That's how.
P.S: That app didn't even use root access so you better give it a try

I don't know... I have something in mind, but it also could cause, that no led works at all or even that the phone won't boot anymore... So I don't even want to try it. (deleting the file /system/lib/hw/lights.montblanc.so)
As Little Zed said, you should try it with an app like screenfilter or the illumination bar notification app.
If you try out newer Roms like KitKat, then you also have an option to disable the LED but, I don't know if it will both disable the small LED on the top right and the LED bar... But this is something you might want to test.
ps: in the current KitKat Rom the LED bar won't work, you'd have to replace the above mentioned file with the one from CM10.1.

The pulse notification light in settings refers to the top right light and not to the LED bar However yuo can enable it flashing a package.
Read the second post of brigio345 in this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...28466&page=120 .

hi,
any solution to disable any LED notification on charge/discharge?
I can't find settings in room, tried Light Flow apk but can't work...
Yolo!
I find the solution with Light Flow - work with Lite too:
No need making any notifications - just if you want automaticaly switch off - just, config same as below in the attachments.
Okay, now plug the charger and choice in Light Flow the Tools menu:
All enabled LEDs test
and switch your screen off.
Tadaam, the current LED notifications is gone!

Hi Dear,
Currently I m using Redmi Note 4.
To dissable the LED notification on the charging, we have to go to the
Settings -> Additional Settings -> Light Notification -> Toggle the buttons.
I did installed but didn't manage. Do I need to be root? Thanks!
Original Thread : https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/themes/app-amoled-notification-light-t3943715
So I was annoyed not having an LED notification light on oneplus 6t so I tried to make one of my own.
As OP6T has amoled display whenever a desired notification comes the app brings in a black screen with notification LED looking animation.
Though this is tested on OP6T, it should be working for most Android Oreo and later phones.
To use it:
Install App.
Disable Ambient Display and any battery optimisation for the app.
Give notification access permission.
Select apps you want notifications for, by choosing a color (Only apps you set a color to enables LEDs).
Note: 1. On successfully selecting a color for an app the text in which the App name is written should change to that color
2. Don't enable the LED for the "Phone App" as it will interfere when an incoming call is coming! Will fix this in next build
Thats it.
Note: To turn off the LED and to unlock phone double tap anywhere on the screen.
Also on pressing power button once the LED stops and on pressing it again it will bring you to lock screen.
App now available on Play Store, please rate and share if you liked the app.
Play Store Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xander.android.notifybuddy
Working Video: https://youtu.be/vFKiHS_ZD-k
If the app is not working check whether the Notification Service is running under Developer Option > Running Services, this service is required for the app to work as intended.
If it is not running after various troubleshoot measures, maybe send the logs.

Hi. I'm going to try it my question is if this would not burn the screen?
Can you explain how the stop timer works?

Nope it won't burn the screen as LED is shifting towards right every time.
Stop timer is the time after which the "LED" will stop after receiving notification.
please mention digits(seconds/minutes) in slider of led time interval & stop timer. working fine with S10.thanks
I couldn't make it work...
Great !!
Very simple & the first one that perfectly works with the screen off.
Next step a circle around the camera ?
Thanks for the work
It does use a bit of battery....
Great app. But the approximately Sensor doesn't responding. Does anybody confirm this?
If „don’t disturb“ is enable no notification light appears.
Is there any way of getting premium features without play services? I would love to use the unlock with fingerprint option
