droidlight - its all budget all the time but its from Motorola Mobility, so it should be 100% safe to use.
Torch toggle from gravitybox.
Does it make much difference? I am using the Motorola one but I'm wondering why you would ask - do different apps provide a brighter light?
The one I linked above is super simple.open it, the light turns on.open it again, it turns off.easy as could be

I'm not sure what is the Motorola one? Do you mean Droidlight LED Flashlight? Looks it will automatically turn off when screen time is up.

That's the Droidlight LED Flashlight, I saw some comments that it will automatically turn off when the screen time is up, do you have the same issue?
No, but motto puts a time limit on the led. I assume it is to protect the led from over heating.

Been using this one since my Driod 1. Lets you use screen or LED and seems to be very lightweight (would have posted the actual link, but I never really posted to XDA... just mainly read. Need to get rid of the stupid post restriction)
I use the flashlight in Power Toggles. I keep a set of toggles on a lock screen widget (WiFi, sound mode, Bluetooth, flashlight, GPS) and the flashlight is one of them.

TeslaLed, you can set a widget with it that automatically turns it on. It also has strobe options I believe. But it also works great with Tasker as it is built in as a plugin or 3rd party options. I exported an app with Tasker App Factory so I can activate it via voice as well.

Is there a flashlight app available? Not the type that make the brightness setting go sky high. Im talking about an app that uses the LED flash,compatible with the bionic of course

I just wish this phone had a dual-led flash. When comparing the flash to my DX, you can really tell the difference.

I use Widgetsoid to make a full Row of toggles and flashlight is one of the toggle options. Widgetsoid can also be set up to have a full reboot menu (reboot, quick reboot, reboot recovery, etc..)
And my favorite one...you can customize it to have a USB Debugging toggle! Hell yeah
I'm about to buy a new Moto AtrixHD, I'm coming back to Motorola since my Atrix 4G crashed. Does the AHD own a notifications led? Only for alerts o while charging too?
For notifications. Mine doesn't light up when charging

It can be used for charging, I'm using Light Manager for that.
To answer OP question: The LED exists, it supports several colors and always on, and there are non-root apps out there to control it as well.
Thanks for you reply! It should light while charging. I'll try by myself when I get my phone.
:good:
The Droid 4 is the first phone I've ever had that doesn't light an LED to indicate that it is charging, or indicate that it is fully charged. Is there such a thing on this phone? If so, how do I turn it on? I don't want to have to wake the phone to check the battery level.

ive opened the apk and I don't see bools.xml anywhere
It looks like the free app Light Flow will do the trick, even on non-rooted phones. The app gives me the option to change the colors, even. Nice selection too. The one thing I can't seem to make it do is keep the LED on continuously, even when I use Light Flow's Always On setting. Must be some setting Motorola has locked down. But at least I can tell at a glance whether the phone is charging or not, even when it's sleeping. Plus, Light Flow lets me set the LED to a different color when the battery is fully charged. Awesome for a free app. :good:

You have to decompile the apk.
Hi guys,
Just spotted this on the app store.
It allows you to use the built in led for notifications. Working on factory ROM but requires root.
I didn't make the app, just sharing..

Confirmed working.
It's a solid light. Still waiting on functionality for a flashing notification. But it works!
Please disregard

Funny you ended up over here too lol.
If root is still required light flow has the best options as far as timeout etc.

Yea, I finally had to get a phone that had access to the bootloader. Good to see you here!
Is this LED consume lots of battery?
There is significant drain with this app?
If you want blinking check out Tesla I added proper blink functionality over there I think most aosp Roms have picked it up now. I'll try to add it to stock eventually for the stock lovers

Any luck adding adding Moto X Pure to your list of supported devices? I'll definitely buy light flow if you do. Configurable front flash notification would be a big bonus. There's also a hidden notification light under the top speaker grill that could be utilized.

Can you confirm you have added Lux and Clark to supported devices?
On the fence with rooting but this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hankarun.nightmodewidget would push me over if it works on stock rooted rom. Anyone care to try and reports back?
Thanks!

It doesn't work. It only dims the screen. Color profile is unchanged. This feature is built into Resurrection Remix (maybe CM13 too, not sure) though.
Also, this app works and will do what you want without root: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.ne.hardyinfinity.bluelightfilter.free
Thanks. Bummer, the nightmode widget worked so well with my GN. With it only are red pixels used so resolution wasn't great but night vision was preserved. Kernel dependent unfortunately.
The overlay filters are helpful but not as effective for astronomy.
