LG G3

I installed Light Manager on my LG G3 and haven't had much luck.

"test" did not work at all until I changed the Static LED Option to 3, rebooted, then turned off the screen while enabling test. All colors appear to be functional.

I enabled notification access for Light Manager at Setting > Security > Notification access > Light Manager and rebooted.

I set the SMS LED to be red with a 3 second flash rate. Sent a test SMS message and I only get the stock green LED every 20 seconds.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Since you set the Static LED to Option 3 and test, so you are testing the non-blinking LED only? Did you test with blinking LED as well?

The SMS app used in LG G3 is LG's own messaging app or hangouts?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] m3driver:
The LED Test was only able to illuminate the LED when I selected Option 3

I am using the LG native message app (not hangouts)

PS - I am a software developer with 30+ years experience and would be willing and able to debug the issue.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
The Option 3 will only take effect if the flash rate that you selected is "None". What about you try selecting flash rate to 3 seconds while testing? Will the LED blink? Since you said Option 3 is functional, so I guess it is the static LED (non-blinking LED) that is functional but how about the blinking LED?

There are a few LG G3 users said that Light Manager is not compatible as well. I will try to see if I can do something on it.

Hi

I have a problem with Light Manager on Galaxy S5 running official rooted 4.4.2.

No matter what notification color I'd choose - when I press test it shines only white. Do you have any idea, or possible solution for that issue?

EDIT: Oh, got it working - shame to admit ... reboot was enough .)

Good job with the app!

Hi

I could not find the answer to my question

My phone is SIII Mini GT-I8200 Android 4.2.2

when i use this application show this message ==> Device's screen needs to be turned off in order for the notification LED to work

I cant found (Setting > Display > LED indicator and enable “Notifications”) in SIII Mini GT-I8200

Please help me

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
In Light Manager, which notification is being tied to green color?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
If I'm not mistaken, Light Manager is not compatible with SIII mini.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] tomurbanowicz:
SMS/MMS, Hangouts, FB Messenger.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
I guess most likely the fake green notification comes from Hangouts.

Are you using Normal mode? If yes, please go to Light Manager > Hangouts > Allow Recreate Notification and enable it to fix false LED notifications.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] ryuseiken:
Hey, buy the app a while ago because since I have always installed it has worked on all my phones and me is very useful. For a couple of updates makes me are not working in my S4 model (i9506) before work.

I waited to see if it was just my problem but after you wipe the phone and download the app again, clear cache and data still does not work. I'll test and not the LED when you turn off the screen.

Can you please review the matter? I endured without tasting competition hehe

Sorry for my English, google translator from Spain.

Thank you for your great app, which is a already a huge improvement over the malfunctionning LED management of my rom.

I have read your Q&A, but still I thing I have an issue/request (I have a Nexus 5 with Miui rom).

- Without any LED Notification managing app (such as Light Manager), most of the time I don't get any led notification with miui (with Nexus 5 - never had any such issue with Miui and other devices). Occasionnaly, I get a blinking led notification, but very rarely...

- With Light Manager in Alternating mode, everything work as expected... Light Manager takes full control of LED Notifications, and LED are stopped blinking when I unlock the device as I have set it. The only issue with this is Alternating mode which is prone to battery consumption which I want to avoid...

- With Light Manager in Normal mode, LED notification works but only as per Miui settings or as per individual app settings (eg K9 mail)... In other words, when LM is set in Normal mode, my device behaves as if I didn't have LM installed on my phone but Miui is controlling LED notifications correctly as it is designed to do... My issue with Normal mode is I would like some of the settings that I use in LM to be functionnal (which they don't atm), for example, I would like to have the LED blinking until I unlock the device, instead of stopping when the screen turns on... The change in color that I set in LM are not being applied, etc... all these specific settings work in Alternating mode...

To summarize my request, I would like to be able to get the best of both worlds "Normal and Alternating mode", most importantly to be able to keep notification blinking until unlock in Normal Mode...

I have a Nexus 5 running stock Android 4.4.2. I use alternating mode for Light Manager (LM). The battery use is minimal. LM isn't even listed on my Battery Use screen.

If you have other apps that control the LED, they might override or conflict LM in Normal mode. You'd probably see a quick white flash when you get a notification. You need to either disable the LED function within the app itself or remove/disable the app in LM. If you use Alternating Mode, LM should override the app's LED setting.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
If I understand correctly, you mean your problem is the LED color that showed up was not the color that you chose while you were testing it in Light Manager?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
For some devices / ROM, it is designed to clear off all LED notification once the screen is on. This is done by the system and Light Manager has no control of it (System will always have the highest priority than app).

From your explanation, it seems that everything is working as it is. Normal mode does not fully take over control of the notification LED, that's why sometimes you will see that Miui is controlling the LED. Alternating mode will fully take over control of the notification LED, perhaps this mode works best for you.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] ryuseiken:
It just does not work on my device, with a 4.3 upgrade worked but stopped working with 4.4.2 now does not work.

Greetings.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
I need to know what is not working so that I can look into the specific area.

It is hard for me to troubleshoot without more description and explanation from you.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] ryuseiken:
I've read the FAQ and I've seen what I was doing wrong, sorry :o

Back to work perfect, thanks for the app.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] safakbey:
Thanks for app. i'm using.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mbze430:
This is more of an annoyance then anything else. But here is what's my AT&T S3 is doing....

I am using Hoverchat for SMS. I get the right color notifications and its great. HOWEVER... the light will not turn off after I am done with the app or when I clear the notification bar. Some reason, I have to go lock and unlock then go in to the notification bar to clear the light.

Maybe a bug? Idk.

Please fix when the Dev have time.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Since you are using 3rd party app for messaging, you will need to add Hoverchat into notification list of Light Manager by clicking "Add an application". Do not use "SMS" and "MMS" notification LED in Light Manager since they are for stock messaging app, you will need to disable them.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mbze430:
Ahh, ok... that totally fixed it.. but now I can't use per contact light.. boooo lol all good though

thanks!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] jenius5:
Mckoo, why on Playstore LightManager Free version is 6.3, while LightManager Pro is version 6.2? They are not equal? Sorry for the language are Italian. :good:
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
v6.3 is only a quick bug fix for whatsapp. This bug only happens on certain device. I don't release the update to Pro version because no one complains about this for pro version, so I just leave it.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] jenius5:
Mckoo no one complains about Lightmanager Pro because of the people who bought it are a lot less than the free version. For example, I recently I uninstalled it because lately I have noticed an excessive consumption of battery. The battery on my nexus 5 drops 1% every 30-40 minutes. Uninstalling everything is back in place, reinstalling it again same problem. In the end I uninstalled it because it is LightManager Pro to have an excessive battery drain. Sorry again for the language ;)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] yumbar:
Thanks and suggestion

Thanks for this app I have been using it for a while on my Galaxy S3 and it is just what I need.

I seems like in one of the recent updates the way it handles multiple notifications has changed and if there is already an existing non-LM controlled notification it no longer signals another one. If so I preferred it the old way :)

A possible suggestion for the future however that I would REALLY like is that you be able to prioritize notifications in normal mode so that the LED color would indicate the highest priority current notification rather than just the first/last one.

Thanks again! I wish there were more high quality and functional apps like this.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
1% every 30-40 minutes I will consider it to be normal, with this your nexus 5 can last for 2 days. Are you using normal mode or alternating mode? Are you using stock kernel and stock ROM? Rooted?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Priority in normal mode is not possible (for S3) due to the way S3 manages its LED notification.

There is no change on the way of handling multiple notification recently. In normal mode, if there is already an existing non-LM controlled notification, LM will not signal another one. This is how LM is designed. Perhaps sometimes you may see that LM can signal another one, it depends on how that non-LM controlled app behaves.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] yumbar:
Thanks for your reply.

OK I thought I used to still get notifications for missed calls and text messages (LM) when I already had a Gmail (non-LM) notification pending but I guess I was mistaken or just lucky. Maybe I will have to disable Gmail notifications all together to get the behavior I want.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] jenius5:
Thank you for having responded. However, 1% is not so normal, LightManager Pro processor keeps busy too. In fact, uninstalling it I noticed an improvement in battery life. My Nexus 5 lightmanger used in normal mode and stock kernel. Without any notification 1% of battery every 30 minutes it seems too exaggerated given that this device already has an autonomy of its poor. According to me LightManager should be done to minimize the use of the processor, leaving rest. ;)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] jenius5:
mckoo, I forgot to tell you that you uninstall LightManager pro, the battery on my nexus 5 drops 1% every 2-3 hours, so the difference is much !!! So I do not create it's normal for it to drop 1% every 30 minutes all without any notification ;) Thanks
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Perhaps you can try alternating mode which will alternate LED for multiple notifications.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Thanks for the info. I will look into this problem.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] jenius5:
thank you for your excellent work :good:

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] victhi:

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
No, this requires a lot of testing. Currently I am still evaluating. So far I couldn't find any battery drain problem as you said. I got about less than 0.5% difference of battery drain per hour between using Light Manager Pro and without using Light Manager Pro. Anyway I will keep testing.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] bwilk226:
Not sure if this has been posted or not; but it appears that the built in Textra notification is not working; I had to resort to manually adding the com.textra for it to load up the LED.

Using the latest Light manager and textra; I think Textra may have updated recently and broke this. Just an FYI, love light manager to death (and was excited to see this as a default feature too!!) :laugh:

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] jaysus145:
here is a neat one: I am getting an "insufficient storage available" error when trying to install Light Manager. To be clear, I have well of 10gb of space left, that is not the issue.

This happened after I flashed the factory image, and tried to restore the app via TiBu - something goofy happened and it forced closed Light Manager. So I uninstalled from the Play Store, and have since been unable to reinstall.

Any ideas? I have to be missing something simple, right?

ETA: upgrading to the Pro version seemed to do the trick ;)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Thanks for reporting. I manage to simulate it. Seems like update of Textra app broke this. I will try to fix it.:good:
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Digdis:
This is usually an android issue, where it won't install anything if the internal free space minus the space required for the app you need to install is less than 10% of the total internal space. Is this 10GB on your internal storage or sd?

Is it possible to only show charging-LED while in alternating mode and charging the phone ?

I cannot get this to work. When charging and receive e.g. an WA message the LED change between the different colors.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Digdis:
I have just upgraded my LG L7 II P714 device from JellyBean to KitKat (both stock). As a result, LM stopped working on the new ROM (it worked fine on JB). I tried to understand the reason for it, so I made a few checks: Testing colors generally works, but even then it is not consistent: Sometimes it blinks OK for as long as the device is locked, sometimes it only blinks once, and sometimes it doesn't blink at all. Regular LED operation almost never works. There are some rare cases where I see LEDs blinking, usually only after some delay.

My guess here is that it has to do with the way LM runs in the background. Maybe it should run as service or something like that (don't know).

Would appreciate any help here.

Working like a charm on LG G3 D855 running v10h!!!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Perhaps you can try go into Light Manager > Advanced Settings > Show Notification Icon and enable it so that it will run as service properly (Without being killed by the system). Another thing you could try is testing on both alternating mode and normal mode see if both also not working under regular LED operation?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Digdis:
Thanks, tried all your suggestions. Result is still the same for all: Notification is only shown once for some notification types (such as missed calls) or not at all (SMS, Mail etc.).
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Some users with LG device reported that there is a setting in the phone settings "Use of the downloaded applications", see if your device has this settings, try enable it see if it works?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Digdis:
Yes it's set. Without it nothing works.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Besides missed call, SMS and Mail app, what else are having problem?

I see that these are all system app. Can you disable the LED light generated by these system app?

On next release, I will fix the LG Mail app compatibility issue.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Digdis:
Everything: Whatsapp, hangouts, tapatalk... This seems to be a rom problem rather than an LM problem, as nothing related to the led seems to be working. It's a new KK rom by LG for my device, and everyone complain about led being buggy. So I guess we should wait for them to fix this issue before blaming LM. Thanks for the support anyway. :good:

LM is not working properly on my S4 running KitKat Google Edition rom.

Charging LED works fine, LED-testing with different apps and colors also without problems.

BUT it seems like LM has no notification access, because the LED is not triggered when I get notifications.

Tried a lot to solve the problem because I like LM:

Installed as system app.

Running LM in background as service.

Tried normal and alternating mode.

Of course notification access is granted for LM.

Reinstalled LM.

LM worked like a charm on my S3 running KitKat ArchiDroid.

Would really appreciate your help.

Best regards,

dorndi

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] dorndi:
Missed call and SMS notification LED is working.

But Gmail is not working.

Edit:

LM works with Gmail and other apps reliable again.

I don't know what the reason was, maybe a unbounced wakelock.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
If things happened again, maybe you can try go to Light Manager > Advanced Settings > Show Notification Icon and enable it. It will make Light Manager background process runs more stable.

Great, works perfekt on my SGS3
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] dorndi:
Thanks for this good advice, but the notification of LM has always been enabled on my device.

Last night I had the following problem:

While I was sleeping I got several notifications of different apps (these apps are added in LM) and had the alternating mode enabled.

At the morning I saw that the notification-LED was pulsing in white color although no app in LM is specified with this white color (only other colors like blue, red, green, ...).

In my opinion this indicates that the background process of LM didn't run stable, so the integrated pulse-notification-function of my S4 Google Edition rom (with non-adjustable pulsing in white color) took over the control of the notification-LED.

By the way, the notification of LM was still in the notification panel.

Any suggestions what could be the reason for this behavior?

Do not hesitate if you wish more input from my side.

Best regards and thanks for your support
