The light turned off upon manual screen off I guess it could be turned off by other party, perhaps the LED Options in ROM Control or the device firmware itself.

The same goes to "Test" is not working while charging. I guess the LED Options in ROM Control had taken over the LED control at the first place. If it is possible to disable charging LED at LED Options in ROM Control, try that and see if "Test" works.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
I am going to fix compatibility issue with Jelly Bean for the next release. However sorry to inform that from Jelly Bean onwards, some of the LED notification controls require root permission especially those 3rd party app such as facebook, twitter, email etc. It is because Google had restricted some of its permission perhaps due to security reason. They do not allow an application to monitor notification events of another apps anymore. Perhaps monitoring on notification events can be done with "Accessibility" but it is still giving "folder opened, folder closed" problem on Jelly Bean for Samsung Galaxy S III.

Anyway those basic LED notification such as Missed Call, SMS, MMS, Gmail, Battery Related, Network Status Related will still work properly on unrooted device. If you need LED notification controls for 3rd party app, you need to root your device.

This will not affect ICS. ICS will get all the LED notification controls in Light Manager working accordingly on an unrooted device.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] chargen2:
Would this explain high cpu when I try to enable Google talk or Facebook notifications? I'm running jelly bean with with siyah kernel.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
I never really tested extensively the CPU usage on Jelly Bean for non-rooted device if 3rd party apps are enabled. By right, you should not enable Google talk and Facebook notifications. On next release, I will disable these options if Light Manager detects that your device is non-rooted and it's Jelly Bean.

If you are still using Light Manager, try disable all 3rd party app LED notification controls and restart the device. Battery consumption should get back to normal.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] chargen2:
I am rooted - sorry I forgot to mention that earlier. If I enable the notification for a third party app the CPU usage for the LightManager service goes high and stays high (forever?). As soon as I disable that notification it goes back to next to no CPU usage.

I've cleared the app data and cache, dalvik cache and uninstalled/reinstalled to see if it made any difference (same result).
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] galen2:
Thanks for this great app mckoo! :good:

I change to light manager, used lightflow but talkback issue is anonyn on s3 and need TTS not freezee to use it on other apps.

Do you plan to add on future more 3rd party apps notifications? I use GMX app for regular email and hotmail app for hotmail mail.

Thanks again.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] danarama:
Yeah mines gone up to like 27% battery usage. So you reckon its 3rd party? I can disable Facebook and test
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] chargen2:
Yes. With default selections cpu usage is as shown in the first attachment. After only selecting Google talk, cpu usage spikes as shown in second attachment
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
The 3rd party app notification detection by Light Manager is not a proper way of detection. Some user might get low or higher battery consumption depending on what other 3rd party apps are in your device. These other apps are usually those background apps such as task killer, apps that sync and apps that always using light sensors, accelerometer etc.

Perhaps I can still do more battery consumption reduction. I thought that from v2.6, I had already fixed high battery consumption issue. Anyway thanks for informing and I will see what can I do with that.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] chargen2:
Awesome. Thank you do much for this great application and for all your efforts updating it! :)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] turilo:
Will this rom work on the lte version of the note 2 when released?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
I think perhaps it will work. But since it is in Jelly Bean, it requires root in order to control LED for those 3rd party apps such as Facebook, WhatsApp etc.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] danarama:
Yeah, without facebook, Lightmanager doesn't even show on battery stats. I'm not bothered about facebook so its an easy fix for me.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Actually it is already mentioned in the FAQ on first page.

2. How come Light Manager on my device is consuming a lot battery life?

Try restarting your device. If the problem still persists, try uninstall and reinstall Light Manager. The last thing you can try is to disable all notification LED for 3rd party apps in Light Manager such as Email, Facebook, Google Talk, WhatsApp etc.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] danarama:
yep, I already did:

Then I also restored to v 2.5 but the issue (which had only just started with 2.6), remained.

So lastly I disabled facebook as per Chargen2's information and all OK.

The 3rd party thing isn't mentioned in the FAQ so may be worth adding that...
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
By the way, what ROM and kernel are you using? Jelly Bean also?

I have tried Light Manager v2.6 with Facebook and Google Talk enabled, however I cannot simulate the high battery consumption issue. I am using stock firmware, stock kernel with root.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] kamirza:
aokp

I have been at it on my jelly king aokp rom but without joy. Is it compatible with it?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Only basic function such as missed call, SMS/MMS, Gmail are compatible, the rest are still not compatible. Please wait for the next update.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] danarama:
Yes a rooted stock jellybean, multiple kernels. Had similar issues on ics but you resolved that separately
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] love_alone_2012:
plz upload Light Manager v2.6 in mediafire or uploadbaz link tanx
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] misterblue31:
Hello, I found this App really. It works well except that I still have notifications "Mail" in blue when I activated and selected the color purple.

I'm using version 2.6 with Omega rom V27.2 (JB).

The problem was the same with version 2.5 and rom Checkrom HD V5 (ICS)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] YagMort:
Good work! Omega 27.2, Siyah kernel 1.7b4.

Please add k9mail, AquaMail, Skype, IMpro and RssDemon!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Light Manager v2.6 is still not compatible with JB. Please wait for the next release which will fix this. However root is required.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mchu6am4:
Its working for me on omega v27.1...
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] miumiu77:
thanks

Great, works perfekt on my SGS3 with Omega6
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
It is working only for missed call, SMS/MMS, Gmail, Battery Status Related & Network Status Related. For other types of notification, you need root in order to work.

Tasker

Hi.

Any chance of having tasker plugin support?

It would be really nice to be able to enable/disable the service from Tasker, and, why not, use Light Manager to control the LED manually using Tasker?

Regards,
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Updated to v3.0

- Fixed compatibility with JB

- Fixed after disabled Light Manager, it will still launch service when light manager app is opened

- Added some missing translation text for Croatian, Polish, Portuguese, Slovenian, Spanish

- Fixed Gmail notification LED remains blinking after read

- Make not showing notification icon by default

- Added restart light manager function

It is fully supported in Jelly Bean now but you need ROOT for some LED notifications such as Email, Calendar, Facebook, Twitter etc.

After you have granted permission, you have to click "Restart Light Manager" to restart the application for changes to take effect. Else it will not work.

I disabled showing notification icon by default as well because I found a bug when testing with Poland's official firmware. Perhaps you can try it out by following the procedure as shown below:

1) Open Light Manager and enable show notification icon

2) Long press home button and kill Light Manager

3) Either send a mail to Gmail or send a SMS to your device, default blue notification LED will show up meaning it is not working. However it will work the 2nd time of sending.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] EViollet:
Hi.

New version working fine.

However, Calendar, Facebook, etc. still using up 100% CPU when enabled on Omega 27.2.

Also, I was wondering if it could be possible to implement the following in the Gmail notifications:

* choose between LED on Inbox or Priority

* make the LED stop blinking once the notification has disappeared. If I read/delete the email from my PC, the notification disappears from the phone. However, the LED keeps on blinking.

Thanks.

Regards
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] chargen2:
No high cpu usage for me now with extra notifications enabled. Omega Rom 27.2 siyah kernel 1.7b4.

Thanks so much mckoo! :cool:
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Sir.John:
I'd like to reoprt a new device: v3.0 works on Huawei Honor u8860 running a Miui v2 custom ROM (doc3000s 2.8.24) . All colours. All mapped correctly.

Some limitations though:

-System own LED notification HAVE TO be switched on, so one need to be careful what events to define in which app (system vs. Ligh Manager). So you can use Light Manager pefectly to jump in for all events not covered by system

- After switching events on or off you HAVE TO restart Light Manager to make the changes active.

Other than that: Thanks heaps, mckoo for all your find work and effort. Keep it up!!

Battery drain

When i switched on my device in the morning, i've seen the battery percents are falling down more quicker than usual.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] radeon_x:
Just FYI, the Gmail notifications don't work with the leaked Gmail 4.2.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] misterblue31:
I do not know what happens, but with the application Email notification is still flashing blue when I set purple?! Problem also with the low bat set to 10%, however the LED flashes when 15%?!

I did a fix permission in CWM unless the problem is resolved.

I used the restart function and the application deactivation and reactivation notifications notifications posing problems without changing anything.

I also emptied the cache LM v3 without the problem being solved?

I already emptied several times Dalvik-Cache and Cache in CWM (Touch 6012).

I can not find how to run properly on my i9300 v3 LM (I noticed the same problems with ICS ROM CheckRom HD v5)

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] lgkahn:
What email program... If not stock... it will be blue... for the regular notifications you need to enable it on system.. but for light manager to Do battery notifications you need to DISABLE it on system.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] misterblue31:
Thank you very much for your reply.

In the system, I just disable the management of low battery notifications as you've mentioned me.

For the problem of notification mails, I tested with Gmail notification = ok with LM v3. But it does not work with the Email application rom. I do not know if this app is the stock version. I just know that this is the version "with Exchange Email Security Disabled" (E-Mail 4.0) the problem is there in this version?

I have just filled missing cs Czech translations :)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
I guess I might know what's the problem with the high CPU usage.

I will implement something on the next release and please try and see if it solves the problem later.

For Gmail notification, I thought I had fixed it? I tested myself to read email from my PC and the LED and notification icon of Gmail disappear at the same time.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Frankly speaking, on Light Manager v3.0 I didn't do any battery consumption reducing. But now I guess I know what could cause the high cpu usage problem that you experienced previously.I will try to implement the fix on next release.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Battery percents are falling down means battery consumption is reducing?

Hi there,

The last few days I've noticed that I'm getting the pop-up "Lightmanager has been granted superuser permissions etc." quite often. It usually pops up when I've unlocked my phone, or opened up an application that utilises LED notifications.

Have tried re-installing Lightmanager, to no avail? Has anyone encountered anything similar, or know how to stop this as it's getting quite irritating!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] hshah:
Can we have an option to turn off the flashing after a set time please?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Popup

The popup is generated by superuser and it comes out because the OS is restarting Light Manager's service. You can actually prevent the OS from restarting it by enabling the Show Notification Icon.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
So far Light Manager does not have this function yet.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] zeke125:
Or turn off the notification of light manager in supersu appm.:)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Sir.John:
Translation updated

German translation updated. Should be complete now.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] rankesz:
No, it means caused heavy battery drain

Waiting for the fix
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] EViollet:
Which isn't going to happen if you don't give more information than that.

Which options have you ticked? If you read a few posts above, you'll see that for some people enabling 3rd party apps notifications causes high CPU use (100% of one CPU), so this is going to chew through your battery quite fast.

So, try by just enabling Gmail/calls/sms/mms/emails. All the rest may cause high CPU usage.

Regards.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] misterblue31:
LM v3 works perfectly with Omega v28 (color Led notification Email OK) this was not the case with v27.1 ;)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] MadsBen:
Are you sure? - I still get the standard blue notification, it should have been pink. Omega v28 and newest LM version. - All freshly installed today.

---------- Post added at 03:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 PM ----------

Hm and it works now. Might has something to do with which order you open/setup email and Light manager. But can't remember my steps now :cyclops:
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] anthropolyte:
Seems to be working very well for me, thanks - just one query, are there plans to add Google Plus app support?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
There is a bug in JB I guess. Perhaps you can follow the procedure below to regenerate the problem.

1) Open Light Manager and turn on Show Notification Icon in Advanced Setting.

2) Press Home to go back to home screen

3) Long press Home and kill Light Manager

4) Send a Gmail to yourself

5) You will get blue notification LED instead of pink (This happens only at the first time, the subsequence will be OK)

I was testing it with 1st Poland's JB stock firmware. I'm not sure whether the newly release JB firmware already fixed it or not.

problems on S3

Dear developer, i use your app, on a Samsung S3 JB poland edition rooted. The app was working at the beginning but now it works and works not. I restart the phone it works for half a day, or something like that, after that it won't. I done everything that you specified on the post with no use. What can I do any more?

Thx
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Perhaps you can try enabling "Show Notification Icon" in Advanced Setting. But note that there is a bug in Poland's JB which I mentioned previously about the first notification will not work right after you manually kill Light Manager app.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] lucus_d:
so, I enable "Show Notification Icon", then i press the home buton, then task manager in the left corner and I press end. It must work or?

I observe this, if I have the phone charging I have the red light, I receive a message, from that point I don't have any notification light or my battery is low, I have the red light blinking, I receive a message, all my light notifications won't work

Just a heads up - I'm using the leaked Gmail 4.2-478, and the latest LED Manager doesn't appear to be compatible....Just blinks the default color.

GSIII, Android 4.04
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] chargen2:
I was starting to wonder if it was just me, or the upgrade to the latest Omega ROM (29).

GS3, Omega ROM v29, Siyah kernel 1.7rc1

Gtalk notifications show with the right colour - not sure about other apps.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] mckoo:
Just enable show notification icon.

Do not always launch light manager n kill it, just leave it.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] lucus_d:
Everything i done, don't work. If i enable the show notification and than i kill it it neve starts back. If i leave the notification icon and i don't kill it, it work for about 4 notification, or unti i receivel 2 notifications.

I will do a factory reset maybe will work. Or i will reinstall the rom and root again.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] upgradepro:
Ye, light manager not working with gmail 4.2 for me too, gone back to 4.1.
