get light flow paid and will work

Nope, you have to use Light Flow. Do note that Light Flow requests a lot of superuser requests and causes a large number of wakelocks which can contribute to additional battery drainage.

What kernels are you guys running that don't need direct mode? Franco supposedly doesn't but it won't work otherwise.

Trickster Kernel Mod for LED

Just so everyone knows, you can download the Trickster Mod Kernel app and turn have the same, if not better LED functionality over a couple of the other ways to get it working. Plus, this is a good go-to app when kernels get released hopefully in the near future.
Settings>Specific>LED Control
Thought I'd share this because I feel it's better to have an app that features this type of thing rather than an app dedicated to only this type of thing.

Thanks for the info. A couple of questions:
1) It flashes the LED for notifications?
2) You've tried it and it works?

No it doesn't, there are a lot of options in Trickster other than battery charging/full, maybe about 10 options total and some I don't know what they do.
Either way, the battery LED does work, which other dedicated apps accomplished, but this is better since it's an everyday custom kernel app also.

[Q] Kernel with LED notification

Is there a kernel which supports LED notifications for Gmail, etc. Also the ability to select colors and duration?

Most custom ROMs support this function natively. A kernel isn't absolutely necessary.

True but I want to incorporate it into the custom ROM I am running.

Have you tried Lightflow or something similar?
I was misled to believe it was a capacity of a kernel, thanks.
You mean Light Flow the paid app?

Yeah the app in the Android Market will allow you to enable it, and tinker with the colors. There may be some other apps that can accomplish the same thing, but I am unsure of what they could be.
This thread and this thread have some people discussing their settings to getting it to work. They may mention some other apps that work.

Q: Root and then unRoot

Hi
I just moved from LG-G3 to N6, and like it for the most part. There are a couple of things I liked, which I believe I can achieve by rooting my N6
- Notification light
- Knock Code.
The rub is, that my corporate requires me to use AirWatch agent which doesn't work on Rooted devices. Is it possible for me to Root, install the notification light/knock code changes and then unRoot again (and retain these modifications)?
I hope the answer is yes
BTW, my Android version: 6.0.1, Build MMB29K
Probably not. Almost definite not for the light as it requires writing to the kernel's virtual file system to turn the light on or off... But maybe someone can correct me with some other way.
no. once you unroot, your mods won't work anymore. anyways.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/attention-questions-t3228454
Well the tap thing is xposed right? Never tried but I have heard since xposed installs its own framework to run its programs that you can unroot and things may still work. Though I think a lot of things that look for root look for xposed too, so your still likely out of luck.
Thanks a lot for all your help. Next time I will post to the right (Q&A) sub-forum
Sad, that the notification light is in the HW, but not enabled in Nexus

To be honest, I prefer ambient notifications compared to led. Much more info at a glance.

I do like my notification led glowing when my phones charging though.

I like that as well. I'm using PureNexus ROM that provides configurable LEDs(like I've it enabled only for battery charging) + double tap to wake and sleep out of box. It has many more customization options and very stable as its very very close to stock. Have been using it for a while now.

Root, install the mods you want, then use xposed to install root cloak to hide root from airwatch.

Droid turbo green light?!

Hey guys what the hell is this my phone died I powered it back up then it powered down I took it out of the otterbox to avoid overheating and this little green light I have never seen before popped up take a look someone please explain this
It's a "sign of life" indicator. Its supposed to indicate "I'm charging, but cannot power on, or display the battery charging icon."
I believe there's a Xposed module that makes use of it as a notification light, and RR (and maybe CM) has it built into the ROM. It doesn't flash/pulse though.

Thank you I've never seem that before so it scared me a bit xD and if you find the xposed module will you let me know I'm running cm and I've never seen that option but again thank you I feel a bit better lol
@ChazzMatt do you have any idea what xposed module he's talking about?
LPThemer is the Xposed module @baybutcher27 references in his RR threads. Personally, I've never used it.

Sadly this has nothing to do with that little light being used for notification from what I could see plus its for LP I'm on CM 13 and that module looks like its only for themes bummer

In RR, it can be turned on for notification, but it doesn't blink and it can't change colors. It's only green solid light.

I have it on mine, running CM13, I activated the notification myself but I can't find the setting. I dig deeper.

What magisk rom are u using and why?

I'm currently using Renovate ICE. I like it because of features like edge lighting and auto HBM. Plus a very responsive Dev team.
Renovate because it implements additional features to OOS, whereas others seem to focus more on optimizations and debloating, which I am not interested in.
Renovate makes stock OOS feel kind of like OOS+, or what OOS should be by default.
Was on renovate but it didn't really give me anything i absolutely needed so just running custom kernel and a few other magisk mods. Waiting for AOSP to get all the kinks out.

Hey,
Never tried this rom before. Could you please a picture of the Edge lighting feature and how it works comparing to the stock OOS?
Is it true that you have to pay subscription to use Renovate ? Or it is free version of it?

It's free, there are some features that require pro version like auto HBM

Right now, the edge lighting up when there is a notification.

Kirisakura. Tried most of them. Obiously a kernel isn't going to change much on a huge scale but its just what i have found myself sticking with.

Does the edge lighting illuminate like a notification LED or just as the OOS stock horizon light feature?

Currently it's like the horizon lighting. But the dev is working on getting it to light up like a led.

What is auto HBM
Here, XDA uses so many different abbreviations that are not visible anywhere else.

if you're really looking for customized edge lighting just use always on edge from the play store. it is amazing.
