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.

It's not a kernel based feature.

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.

Decent ROM with active display working?

I've been testing some roms and so far none of them have a working active display.
Is there any decent ROM with a working active display?
Yea, i'm looking for one too. As close to stock\AOSP as possible would be great.
Pacman works decent IMO

Yep! Lesson learnt! Apparently, there's nothing like stock. I won't try another ROM ever again on my Moto X. Stock + XPosed is the sh*t !
The only thing missing are the themes, but i can live without those.
I recommend Acid + Acdisplay

Does XPosed allow you to dim the display by swiping across the notification bar? Honestly, that is the only setting I ever cared about with my previous ROMs and phones, which is why I always used something akin to PAC Roms.
Eclipse hands down.

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.

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.

Working Custom Alert Slider?

Is there any working Alert Slider App or Mod out there to date? It seems like only custom Rom's feature it and i found myself pretty happy with OOS, i am Bootloader Unlocked, rooted and with TWRP, so if there is any1 who has found a way to change the Alert Slider to "Ring - Vibrate - Silence" please let me know.
Also Great Community here, you guys are all so nice and work so hard, keep it up guys!

Resurrection Remix has a great implementation if you don't mind switching roms.

OH! Missed that! Well worth a try then!
Been using RR on my S5 and loved it.
Possibly a stupid question, but here goes...
Are there any mods or roms out there that let you set one of the positions as a flashlight toggle? I don't have any use for vibrate mode. I can't feel it in my pocket, and when in its case, I won't hear my phone vibrating on anything.
Thanks in advance

but you need to change SELinux mode

I know this an old thread, but I can't seem to find an answer anywhere.
I have a 3T(OOS OB15, Android 7.1.1), rooted with Magisk.
Do I need Xposed for this to work? If yes, can you link me to a guide on how to install it?
If no, do I just install this app? And what is the SELinux mode?
AOSPA Extended has a customisable Alert Slider function in settings

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

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.
