Is edge lighting working for anyone? I've turned it on, ensured transparency is low, thickest border, set to always. Nothing. With or without Aod, which I use, but still want edge lighting until we get the camera cutout led.
Umm how can there be edge lighting on the s10e when it doesn't have a curved screen?

Hmm.. Think you are right. Edge lighting don't seems to be working for my WhatsApp. Working for sms messaging though.
Have you tried Good Lock from Galaxy store?

I can't get edge lighting to work at all, it only works for Samsung Messaging. Other apps for it to work, the screen has to be on so it's useless. This was the worst decision ever to get rid of the LED light.
Same problem, tried the guide from reddit but still no luck. It works on Viber but doesn't work on WhatsApp.

Yeah I've found it does work for texts so it's just WhatsApp that's not working for me.
On playing with the notification settings in WhatsApp it did work when I enable 'pop ups' which are unsightly so looks like a bug..?

Edge lighting + still only works on stock messaging app for me (using pulse). I've set the notification reminder to 3 min for calls and messages and that along with always on display is working pretty good in terms of not missing texts. Still looking forward to front cam ring led light though. They better not be teasing with that update lol.

You need to go to "manage notifications" in the edge lighting settings. You can turn on or off any app you want.
Is that in theory or does it actually work for you? I haven't heard of it working for anybody (for most apps) since 9
NOT working on S10. Had Samsung rep at Best Buy mess with it. He fixed it while I was in the store, but after I left and customized the color, NOT working again!! So annoying!!
He told me he cleared cache and force closed edge lighting app, but I can't find it!!
HELP!!
On my S10e it only works with Hangouts when the screen is turned on, which is pretty much useless. GMail, WhatsApp & Telegram not working at all.
Downloaded and trying it out.
Can confirm as well that it isn't working on S10+

Hi all I was wondering if anyone has found a way or an app/tweak so that notifications don't turn the screen on on the device when receiving notifications such as text messages? I find this highly annoying coming from android devices like the Nexus One and Motorola Milestone. I have found nowhere for this option. I use Handcent as my default sms app and i have the Bell i9000 if that helps. Thanks!

Tasker can do it.
A fellow-teammember created an app for that sorta thing:

Thats weird... me its on sms and its highly annoying because I have unlock. Even with the options in Handcent to not turn on the screen it turns on. Tried the default sms app and same thing. Maybe is ADW Launcher? I'll try with the Samsung launcher to see...
ok so it does same thing with Samsung launcher as well. This is annoying! Does everyone else's screen turn on when they receive SMS? I tried noLED as well but screen turns on before it goes to the noLED screen.
Yes, but that's a good thing for me - otherwise I wouldn't know I had a notification if the phone is on my desk?

Yeah that's definitely true. I guess I will stop using the application called Unlock. This app was cool because it gets rid of the lock screen but its annoying to have your screen turn on while its in your pocket and there is no lock. I guess it's something I will have to live with.
Anyone else having trouble with their trackball light not working on non-google apps?
non google apps? as in some 3rd party chat client or something?
if so then it depends on the app if it features the trackball light..
Sent from my Nexus One
i'm not getting the notification sound for emails, either?
edit: relating to the thread topic, trackball light for sms popup isn't going off like it was with froyo. unrooted stock here.

Well it would be like for chompSMS or SMS Popup, it just wouldn't work.
Same with me, i think Google disabled the trackball light in 2.3.
More likely that the app devs just need to update their apps to work better with GB.
Mine seems to have stopped working altogether.
ya.. now mine is gone too..
edit: I just reinstalled sms popup.. and now everything works just like it was..
idk what's happening.!

I agree, I think the developers of certains apps just haven't updated to gingerbread yet, including Blink.
I've also noticed the flashlight widgets/apps don't work now either
Edit: oh, I'm also stock. Will this finally be the thing that forces me to root? Nah, I'm too big of a wuss (and lazy
Found a solution. Look for "Light Flow" in the Market, works like a charm.
I d/l the free app and it covers a lot, the paid app ($1 ish) allows even more (social apps, etc.).

The "Torch" flashlight widget works fine for me.
Been using Light Flow app for a week for trackball alerts with no issues, but you want the latest market version for GB.

Same.
The LED would blink on boot so I knew it wasn't the LED.
I restored and now my notifications blink repeatedly only if the screen is off. Once I turn my screen on (doesn't matter is I unlock the phone or not, dismiss the notification or not- literally just turn the screen on) the notification LED stops blinking. If my phone screen was on when I get the notification, the LED doesn't blink at all...
Ideas? Solutions?
Has anyone been successful using this app? It is the messaging app I use the most, but in its current state it appears quite useless. It claims it can be used for making calls and sending stickers, but the only option available is to turn the alarm off and on.
If you have figured out how to get this app working, please let me know.

It used to work! I love Line and you could reply with a sticker right from the Gear. But now it doesn´t work...
Alarm off or on refers to the alerts of the Line messages, but no...doesn´t work.
Every time theres an update for GM, I dont restore data from the last GM, this has solve my problems with line. or do a fresh install of line on your gear. you can also try to have notifications on when screen is off.

Ok. One more question. Do you have notifications turned on in gear manager for line, or do you let the line for gear app handle them?
Thanks
I finally figured it out after reading through reviews. You have to have pop up notifications turned on in the line app on your phone for the program on the gear to work properly. You can use either the "simple" or "default" setting. This pretty much just makes me not want to use the app.
Thats what I meant when I recommended to have notifications on when the screen is off. you have to play with the notifications settings on the phone. Ive also notice that sometimes notifications dont get send out to the gear when you have a screen lock. How do you like it now? its pretty cool huh, I just wish they included more stickers for the gear
The app requiring pop up notifications was a deal breaker for me. Half the reason I wanted the watch was so I didn't have to turn my screen on as often as I do. I also don't want people just seeing random pop ups. I deleted it in favor of the regular notifications until it gets better.
Has anyone found out to fix this annoying crap? texts are fine facebook not so much I have tried different sounds using zedge and no luck. Its quiet irritating . Facebook notifications are sooooooooo QUIET i cant even hear them. its almost enough for me to send the phone back. is there any way to fix this and keep it permo without rooting the phone.

it didn't work. 3rd party apps are still wicked quiet. it seems to be a bug or something with the nexus 6. its quite annoying. notifications with facebook are so low. is there another fix or anyone figure this out i cant find any solutions to this problem

On my N6 there were two issues with low sound.
Settings - Sound & Notifications
The media sound with headphone is safety thing, you need to allow more volume for headphones.
Second issue; low incall-volume was solved with Vcplus app.
Don't know more.
I dunno it seems like a issue with the phone or could it be android m? The notifications on any my 3rd party apps like Facebook messenger are so quiet when the screen is off its insane. When the screen is on their normal.

I am sorry for you. I read about low volume when using Lollipop. The current version MM works OK on my N6.
I am using a lite ROM of Danvdh. A debloated stock ROM.
Maybe this thread has more info for you.

Hello,
Has anyone figured out how to get Edge Lighting and the bubble notification at the top to work with the Android Messages app? It worked fine with the stock Samsung Messages app, but I cannot get it to work with the Android messages app. I changed the setting within Edge Lighting to be enabled and have the Android Messages notification set to urgent, but still no luck.
Appreciate any help!
Thanks
From my experience not all the apps are edge lighting compatible, including gmail, youtube and many other applications... I can not tell you why but I think it has to do with how each app send notifications.
Maybe smarter people can give you more technical explanations ?
Works fine for me, although I use textra as my messaging app. I have Google messages and occasionally switch back to it, but wanted to test it for you
I can't upload a photo now for some reason

Thanks for your reply. I just tried some tests and it seems that the edge lighting works when my screen is on and I receive a text. But it does not work when my "Always On Display" is on. Do you notice that as well?
I have the Verizon version and also use Textra as my SMS app. I just sent a text from the wife's Note 9 and with mine on the AOD, I saw the small popup at the top and she lighting lit up. I tried to grab a screenshot, but apparently doesn't work on AOD.

my edge lighting has the option to work with screen off or on or both..did you check that?
Thank you both for the feedback. I have the setting set to Always (aka both with Screen On or Off) but it does not work with the screen off (AOD).

I am having the same issue. Didn't work when screen is off. With or without AOD, it doesn't work at all. Only on screen on I see it no problem.

Glad to know it's not just me. Perhaps this is something that Google can fix with an update? I submitted feedback via the app.
