Screen doesn't light up when notification comes through. Apps don't indicate there is a new email or notification unless I open the app. Things aren't sending notifications through on the regular unless prompted by me.
Anyone have any advice

I am having a similar problem. However, Power saving mode is turned off for me. Still, I am not receiving any notification alerts.

Anyone know of a widget that will turn Trackball Alert on and off? Meaning while I am at work I can turn off the trackball notification?
I have used Tasker and Settings Profile in the past but that is a lot of software to just not have it blink at work. I do have Trackball Alert set to have it off at night, but without a second setting I still have it blink at work, leaving me with a blinking light in my pocket.
The alternative would be a widget to turn email push off and on...but I cant find that either.

The power widget has the option of putting Sync 'On' and 'Off' at your convenience..
But that does not turn off my exchange push. Trust me I use it every day and my push emails still arrive.

I have thought of this, but I guess my issue is I need my phone calls and texts but while I am in front of my PC I dont need the email alerts.
I guess its back to Setting Profiles or Tasker for me.
You'll still get calls and texts with data turned off.
There used to be an option to turn off the notification LED on blocking mode so that it didn't light up your room while sleeping. It appears that is no longer an option. Does anyone know of a solution to be able to disable the LED for specific hours each day? I tried Lightflow, but had some issues with it and there was not an option to set specific hours. Thanks in advance!
I don't think the LED is that bright to "light up your room".....
If it bugs you that much, turn it face down, or put something over the LED to cover just that one part of the phone.

LOL! Easy fix. Cut her eyes out. Then ask her which did she like more, the ability to see or not? I'm sure she will say sight, but then you give her the bad news that you can't fix her blindness due to you not being a doctor (unless you are, then operate).
To fix your problem though, try Settings > Accessibility > Notification Reminder > LED Indicator
Hope that works.
Have you tried "do not disturb" in your toggle buttons? Says it'll silence calls & notifications, not sure if it will disable led. Ultra power saving mode might also disable led.

I have tried do not disturb and it does not turn off the LED for me. I have not tried ultra power saving mode. I am, however, hoping for something more automated based on time. Thanks for the response.

Wow...that escalated quickly :-0
Thank you for the recommendation, but I actually want the LED on during the day and just off at night. It was a setting on my previous Samsung devices...just appears to be another thing removed, for some reason

Guess the Do Not Disturb option is your only bet. Hopefully it works.
try sleep for android...it has a feature of Do not disturb whenever you have sleep tracking on. So when you sleep just set that as an alarm and it will put the phone to do not disturb
I know you said you had problems with lightflow app but have you tried the light manager app? Works really well for me since they did the fix for 5.1.1.

Yes this would be nice. Do not disturb i would think would turn led off but it doesnt. If u find a solution please post it. Not like its really important to me but it would be nice.

I have my phone set for screen to wake when a notification comes in. Is there not a way to have the notification appear at intervals until I dismiss? The way it works now is, screen will wake when a notification comes in, and stays on briefly, then goes off...and that's it. Am I to understand that unless I notice that one brief notification, the only way to see if I have an email/text/etc is to open the phone and look? No notification light and one measly, brief notification? Is that it? Help!

This is a minor gripe of mine as well. Plenty of forehead but no notification light. CleanSlate kernel has this option but I haven't tried it out yet

That's what the always on display is for. In your case, double tap to wake would work too.

I've noticed that my Note 9 will not sure an incoming call on the screen. If one comes in, it will show in the notification bar, but will not wake up screen and show on main screen. Same thing with text message notifications, does not wake screen or give a notification in pull down. I have to go to messages app to check those.
Anyone with similar issues? Anyone know where to look for any setting changes?

Nevermind. Figured it out. Somehow the Do Not Disturb was turned on to a "Until I turn it off" setting. I had it on a schedule to turn on at night and off in the morning so, it did not even cross my mind to check it until recently. So, if anyone has this, make sure to check that out.
I just bought a Redmi 9, but I discovered that it doesn't have a notification LED. It's really annoying not being able to see if the phone has notification just by looking at it. Are there solutions to this?
I tried the Always On Edge app and it does the trick, but unfortunately, not having an AMOLED display makes it drain too much battery for me...
Are there other solutions that don't kill the battery too much? How do you usually become aware of unread notification?
As far as i know there is a app for blinking with flashlight when u get a call or something,have used it on my Huawei.

use glimpse notifications, you can set the led flash to notify you of new notifications and use it to turn the screen on again and again at the set time for as long as u want after getting notifications and many more features, it's free on the google app store
I totaly forget that the flashlight blinking when call incoming is in the settings of the phone,no need for an app.Cheers!!!
