Having the same issue since switching to MIUI 11 and its driving me nuts. Ive tried everything in the world the past few days. The LED works fine for every other app I use. Have you figured it out?

Just recently got my HTC Vivid and I like the device. Quick question about the notification LED in the upper left corner. It seems to only flash for a few minutes indicating I have received an SMS or email, etc. Should it only flash for a few minutes? I would prefer it continue to flash until I check.
I don't know that it flashing for only 5 or 10 or 15 minutes (however long it is, I haven't timed it) will help me much as I check the phone every 5 minutes to see if it's blinking. For example, at work I often leave my phone on silent (as in not vibrate but completely silent) and rely on LED notification (or on my Captivate, BLN control pro) to tell me I have something waiting. But I may be away from my desk for 30 minutes or an hour. If the notification LED on this device only flashes for a few minutes upon receipt of something new (text, email, missed call, vm, etc.) then I could potentially miss events if I don't turn the screen on to look for notification bar icons.
It seems these apps on the market that are supposed to expand the functionality of the notification LED may not work for HTC devices such as this one.
All of that to ask...is this normal behavior or is there somewhere on the device I can control how long it will blink? If there is I have't found it so someone pointing me to it would be greatly appreciated!
It's normal, mine does it too actually. It's really annoying though, haven't tried any apps for it yet.

Hmm...well, I looked up a couple apps on the Market that I saw suggested elsewhere but it seems the comments/reviews were saying it didn't work on various HTC phones. It would be nice to be able to tell it to not blink as frequently (i.e. longer between blinks) but blink until cleared.
Also had a weird occurrence earlier where I got a text, light was blinking, I read and replied to the text but the light was still blinking. A restart cleared it. Hope this isn't a continual problem; I want the LED to work as I think it is very useful.
SMS pop up in market lets you adjust the blink rate.

That happens to me occasionally. All you need to do is pull down the notification tray and it will stop. At least, that's been working for me.

Can you confirm that this feature in SMS Pop up works on the Vivid? I ask because I tried Lightflow, I think it was, from the Market and all it did was make the LED stay on steady and not blink (or I couldn't get it to blink). Also, can you disable the pop ups using the SMS Pop up app? Sorry, just wondering if you or anyone know from experience...

SMS Popup has the option but I don't think it works for the Vivid. I vaguely remember trying it.

Tested it out and it does work on the vivid. You can change the color, speed and how long it flashes. Yes you can also disable the pop up.
EDIT: After playing with it some more the LED color change doesn't work on the vivid. It is always green.

I purchased Light Flow mainly for a light for missed calls. Others may use it for more. I do have it working properly as should but only way I got it work under Device Root Setting enable Direct Mode.
Did anyone on N6 get it work without Direct Mode? What I want is the led to flash but all it will do stay solid in color.

I don't think anyone has gotten it to blink yet, it will stay solid. I have heard if you receive multiple notifications, it will flash.
I can confirm. It's only blinking when you have multiple notifications each with a different color.
I have issues with this app. Also with all root settings enabled led doesn't work properly. Sometimes it doesn't turn on and sometimes it doesn't turn off (in this case I must open the app to turn it off). I hope Dev will update this app soon.

Any battery drain with the light being on say for 30 min.

I had some issues with Light Flow too. The LED sometimes didn't work. Now i have found a "hidden" setting in the menu. In Accessibility (you have to scroll down) is an option "Light Flow". You have to turn this to on. Now my LED works as it should.
How can i get this to work with the basic standard messenger?
I have sms selected but so far no go. Everything else had worked so far
Didn't know the nexus 6 had working led light.
I didn't get the LED to work for incoming SMS neither. Maybe someone here has an idea how to fix this.

That would be great!
I keep setting google now reminders, which it accepts, but I never get notified of the reminders. If I go into the reminders tab in google now, I can see them listed but they go straight to passed reminders without a notification or still show as "upcoming" even though the time has passed.
Anyone know a fix for this problem or what could be causing this? Im running stock 5.0.1 unrooted and locked.

I found a fix btw to anyone else that is having this problem. I had google now cards turned off somehow by default.
Thanks for the tip! I had my first one set for the other morning and it didn't go off. Thanks
I just flashed the stock image upgrading my Nexus to 6.0 MRA58K and for the most part love it but I have one issue that is driving me nuts and google isn't helping me.
I use GoSMS as my texting app. If the phone is awake, I get the pop up and ringtone notification when I get a text, but when the phone is asleep and I receive a text, the screen will wake up briefly showing the message but not ringtone. I have gone in to apps and set GoSMS as priority and gone through all sorts of settings to try and get it figured out with no success. Meanwhile if I get an email or even a tapatalk notification when the phone is sleeping, I will get the screen waking up and the notification ringtone just fine. I have a custom ringtone for GOSMS only so don't know if that has anything to do with it.
Anybody else run into this or know what could fix the issue?
