Hey.
I'm loving my new Mi 9T and the notificaton LED is awesome however over time, will the LED burn out ? I was wondering how long after a notification does the LED keep blinking? One hour? 2 Hours? Any ideas? ( I know you can turn this off but I am curious how long the LED continues blinking after a notification )
Many thanks.
Forever and it probably won't burn out if you left it on for a few years straight

Thanks. In hindsight I guess the Led probz won't burn out.
Has anyone tried to measure the timer on the notification led?
2 hours after a notification, mine was still flashing.

The only LED I ever really noticed on my Hima was the blue one telling me BT was on or off. I know the device has a green, yellow and red LED on the opposite side that can either burn or flash, but don't ask me why. Neither do I know if the flashing rate of the blue LED might tell me something.
Last week when my battery was just about 99.9% drained and my Hima started to behave strange, I noticed that on external power the red LED burned constantly. And when I notice something like that, it's probably because I've never seen it before.
http://michael-channon.spaces.live...._c=BlogPart&partqs=cat=Hermes+Charging+Issues helped me out.
But I would love to know the exact meaning of all LED colours and blinking rates.
all the Leds's Rate are in the Book that comes with it
Thanks, but as I told before I bought 2 Hima's with broken screens years ago, under those conditions it's very rare to get anything but the dead device itself.
The service manual only tells me that a fast flashing yellow LED means battery is too warm (>35C) or too cold (<0C) to charge.
hmmz..u r rite..its unpredictable..any way i'll see what i can find
What I can see, it's blinking green on normal operation, lighting yellow on charging, blinking red on missed calls and lighting red on too low voltage...
Mine never blinks green. Lighting green tells me charging reached 100%.
Could blinking green mean GPRS or IR on?
Anyone ever seen blinking yellow?
I hope curiosity only kills cats ;-)
I guessed the lighting red :-(
Mine blinking green when it is in normal operation.
Yellow on charging
Red when there is misscall or message because I set to give LED sign
> Green for normal - with carrier signal operation and Fully charged while still plugged into wallsocket
> Yellow for Charging
> Red - missed calls/poor elec current while being charged/very low battery
@Maggy, there is a tweak on how to permanently disable blinking lite even during normal operation. could it be possible that ur units have are tweaked like such?

Not that I can remember, but I'm tweaking all the time. Aren't we all?
;-)
how come on my XDA my colors are
Yellow=Normal Operation
ORANGE=Charging
Red=Low batt
May be your led is expired Yellow and Orange is slighly different, you lose green color I think every body mentioned yellow in here is little bit mix with orange color
Or some of us are more colour blind than others
has motorola fixed that little LED after this update?
I don't see how they could release this phone without noticing that... so stupid.
Moto's official explanation is that it isn't a charging light but a "sign of life". It only comes on(blinks) when battery is too dead for the phone to turn on charging mode. This is to let you know its still alive. Would be nice if it was a charging light though.

To be honest, I'm really glad that they decided for it to be a "sign of life" light. With my previous phone (Milestone/OG DROID), the light would bother the hell outta me when I'd go to bed at night and charge it on my nightstand.
Thanks Moto for this one !
Light Flow
Light Flow has an option for this and a lot more. you can make the LED one color for charging and another for when its full.

That app is for the front LED. Not the side tiny little light next to the microUSB port.

There's a light on the side?! I just had to look now to see it. I had never seen it before. I'm running the leaked OTA, when does it even light up?

With the OTA applied, the light now works if the phone is OFF.
Once the phone is switched on, the light goes out.
And the phone is plugged into a charging source, of course.
Wow I never knew this existed. Interesting...I guess. I don't think I've ever seen it light up.
I tried it too and it lights up a second then the phone is turning on, the led then turns off. Glad its working.

I saw that it existed, but had never seen it light up. Until I plugged in my phone with no battery in. Then it lit up. I was running .890 and that was the first time I ever saw it.
Anything you can do to have the LED light to keep blinking until you turn on the phone?
The current setting only have the light blink for like 5 minutes. Far too short and too easy to miss.
Even to extend the blinking period to 1 hour is much better.
I had the Galaxy Note 2 and S3 before, and they keep blinking until you switch on the phone.
First time I saw Note 3 had flashing orange light while it was connected to the charger.
I charge my Note 3 every night without problems but this morning when I woke up I noticed that an orange light flashing while it was plugged in to the charger. I checked the phone for any new notifications/messages that I could have missed since the last time I checked it.. there were some (sms) but I thought orange led means something about the power. I then pushed the power button to turn the screen off and the green led came up meaning its charging again. Battery was 100% charged
Could there be something wrong with my battery or has anyone experience this? My Note 2 is only 2 weeks old.
It was a notification other than the battery. Maybe a calendar event or something else. Your phone is fine.

Let's say i get a message at night in my HTC One and when i wake up in the morning the led isn't blinking. It's really annoying.
On my Samsung Galaxy S3 the led was blinking until i read the notification. That way I knew I had message when i woke up without touching the phone.
Is there any fix for this so it blinks all the time and not just for a while like it seems to be doing right now.
I am stock at the moment.
One more annoying thing is that when the phone is charging the led is red all the time. Even if I get a message. In my opinion it should blink green so i know that i have a message.
You care not if it drains the battery, should your notification LED blink ad-infinitum? I would...
Also, I don't understand the premise of why the notification LED should blink (and the phone making a beep) like crazy when the battery reaches below 10%. What the heck is the idea here? Announce that the battery is low by draining it some more?
Have you checked the Notifications subsection in Settings? You can set the notification LED blinks & color, to however many repeats...
there's already a thread that started recently discussing this. You will need root to change the notification timeout.
