Updated to the new LightFlow, and for some reason SMS/MMS notifications aren't working now when Hangouts is selected as my default SMS app. The Notification Light works fine when my default SMS app is set to the stock Messaging app, but not when Hangouts is set at the default app. This isn't a huge deal to me as I will just use the stock app until a fix is released.

I'll try and play with it more and see what I can do. I've tried restarting the phone, turning on/off pulse notification light, and enabling/disabling the lightflow app, but it still does it.

EDIT: I did some testing, MMS works but SMS does not. So if I receive an SMS via Hangouts the notification light will not light up, but it will if I get an MMS. Both SMS and MMS work in the stock Messaging app.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] tlf55:
Same for me ! This is a bug deal for me as I use hangout .. If anyone have a fix please

I've had issue's with "stock" messaging app also.

Eventually i deleted it and installing Textra instead just to get LED support.:rolleyes:
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Zeebz:
I found a temporary fix for it. If you go into Lightflow and look at the options, there is one called like "Hangouts - All Notifications" and if you enable that one the LED will light up if you get an SMS in Hangouts.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] lazer155:
Should light flow be run in foreground mode in kitkat? I have root mode selected, if that makes a difference.

Thanks for the update, it works great now. :good:

Thanks for the clarification.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] lowrider262:
light flow is working perfectly on my n4. it was hit or miss on the gnex, it would only light up for about 3 out of 5 notifications.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Ballastatuz:
Works perfectly on my nexus 4. Magenta even works well.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] DJMartini:
Another issue I ran into when 'charging' via USB on computer. I have it display red LED ... if you turn screen on and go into anything than turn off the phone the LED isn't coming back on.

Haven't seen the problem when charging via AC outlet though.

EDIT: Leaving it still plugged in and re-starting all via the debugger (widget) it still doesn't come on =(
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] zibby64:
Does anyone else have an issue where the LED won't blink *until* you turn the screen on? Turning it back off will keep the LED flashing but kinda defeats the point of having a notification LED :p
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] DJMartini:
Think it's designed to 'notify' only when the screen is off.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] zibby64:
I know that, situation is: email comes in when screen is off, nothing happens, turn screen on and then back off, led starts blinking
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] DJMartini:
Yea I've been running into that as well. I think sometimes the app doesn't load on start-up correctly. What I tend to do is every once in a while turn it on/off/on in the settings itself to kind of restart it.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] aSquard:
I have a strange issue that I've not been able to pin down just yet. Single notification seem to work well, but when I receive 2 Gmail notifications (2 accounts, 2 different colours) the LED will cycle through 5 different colours (for other notifications that I've set, but not received). I've checked the Debug widget shows both Gmail notifications as active but not others (like Facebook, low battery, and charging but the LED shows like they're active as well) Do I just need to change the duration of each of the notifications so they "time out" earlier? I suspect that could remedy it...
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] andrewpmoore:
That's the magenta issue been references above. Not all nexus 4's, but some are affected by that including mine. I've got a workaround coming soon for that.

---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:27 PM ----------

I've not come across that one myself. Is it just for email (and if so, gmail or standard email). I only use standard email myself for occasional testing as I use gmail accounts normally.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] benrees21:
Love the app, have used it since the gnex. Tried the test for all notifications but the LED will only flash green, reading through i see it's already been mentioned and it does actually work properly, it's just the test that is messed up. I also have the magenta issue. Glad to see your already on fixing it.

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] andrewpmoore:
I'm trying to make improvements to the test for the next release as it's not very good on the nexus 4 at all at the moment. Hopefully real notifications will work ok.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Ballastatuz:
I just noticed when you put on the charging light. Other notifications don't show.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] andrewpmoore:
Are you on the lite or full version. In the lite the cycling is very slow. Also try add the lightflow debugger widget to a homescreen, that'll show you which notifications are on.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Simer03:
I have a weird bug, idk if its been asked or discussed but basically, when it asks to grant accessibility to light flow, I click yes, then as usual takes me to the accessing and i then turn it on....once i turn it on , my touchscreen goes crazy! It doesn't register any touches!? Only seems to happen as soon as i turn access on!

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Dunkamo:
Very nice app. I was already considering buying the full version, but seeing how active the author is and that they just got their own N4 made it an easy choice. Thanks again for the quality app.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] andrewpmoore:
Can you try uninstall lightflow and install another app that uses accessibility (Llama, tasker, pops etc) and see if when switching on accessibility you have the same issue. My guess is that you will. I get an occasional report of this and as far as I'm aware it's always affected other accessibility apps and it's been fixed only by doing a factory reset.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] talhak91:
I'm new to Android and this seems like it would be perfect, but just one quick question - does Lightflow require root on the Nexus 4?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] lowrider262:
no
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Copperwatt:
same "rainbow strobe" issue here

Yeah, same issue here.

This is when I notice it:

Fast cycle from red (fast flash) to orange (fast flash). Red works perfectly, orange often goes all rainbow strobe.

When I fast cycle from red (solid, no flash) to orange (solid, no flash) it works fine.

Is this maybe a timing issue with the orange LED "fading in"? It seems to happen only with complex colors, almost as if the individual color components are "firing off" at slightly different times.

New issue:

Light Flow LED Voicemail notifications are broken for me when using Google Voice voicemail.

Carrier voicemail notifications work fine, and google voice notifications work fine UNTIL you go into Google voice and check the box "Voicemail display", the setting that integrates Google's visual voicemail into the phone/call log.

Once that is checked, the little voicemail icon still appears in the notification bar as normal, but Light Flow no longer notices it. It also appears to stop sending the "Google Voice" based notifications, but that may be the GV app's fault.

Any idea what is going on? I absolutely love the integrated visual voicemail, and would love to have it work with Light Flow.

I would be glad to help debug this issue if I can help in some way.

Keep up the good work, I have had many happy geeky hours fiddling with creating custom color, flash rates, and sound/vibrate schemes.

-copperwatt
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] andrewpmoore:
Yes, I've a fix coming for this.

---------- Post added at 07:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:00 AM ----------

There's no need to run as root it doesn't add anything on the nexus 4 . I'd still run in foreground personally as without it there's always a chance of missing and led when Android decides to kill a service in its routine memory cleanup. If you get a notification before it restarts then lightflow would miss it.

LightFlow broken for SMS Hangouts and calendar events?

Nexus 5 stock KitKat.

So LightFlow works fine for gmail. It worked for a short time when I receives SMS Hangouts msgs. Now it doesn't. Normally for a properly notified event I see a LightFlow notification in the pull-down menu saying what notification triggered it. But SMS Hangouts aren't triggering it. Tried turning notifications on and off in Hangouts SMS - no change. Fiddled with LightFlow for awhile.

I've never been able to get calendar events to trigger LightFlow. I use Calendar Snooze. Can they work together?

I just uninstalled and re-installed the app. I think there was a LightFlow upgrade last night. No change in behaviour.

Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] DJMartini:
Touchdown

Split notifications for e-mail and calender events for Touchdown finally! YEAH!!!!!!!!!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] dbareis:
Seems to work well here.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] lazer155:
It seemed like the problem on sms messages not triggering the led was fixed with this most recent update but now I'm having some trouble with it. I only use 8sms as my ams app and don't have hangout installed. I'm on kitkat. Currently I have the allsms tile in light flow setup with an led color and a vibration notification. It always vibrates correctly on an incoming sms but the led doesn't always trigger. Should I have the 8sms tile setup instead of the all sms apps tile?

Also I'm not sure if it's related but battery drain seems higher now than it was in the previous versions. I haven't installed anything else so I don't know what would be causing that.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] tlf55:
To get hangout led notification work we gotta enable the hangout all notification .. Otherwise it doesn't work .. And I just found out that to get stock SMS/MMS app to work we gotta enable alternate mode in light flow SMS option .. Well that's pretty odd cause before KitKat everything worked perfectly without touching any alternate mode or use a workaround to get things to work ..

Anyway this is a very good app :) hope next update solve all issues !

If you go into Lightflow there is an option called "Hangouts - All Notifications" and if you enable that the LED will work again for SMS messages in Hangouts.

Are you using Calendar Snooze?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] trepamuros:
I posted this issue in another threat/forum, but I can't remember/find where. Sorry for duplicate.

After updating my Nexus 4 to 4.4 stock unrooted, I noticed Light Flow (paid, updated version) is having an issue with incoming calls:

I've configured the LED to blink very fast on incoming calls. It was working perfectly in 4.3: LED was blinking during all the time the ring is sounding. But now, LED blinks only for a second when ring starts to sound, then no more. Ring is sounding, but no blinking.

I also have configured the LED to blink on missed calls. This is working perfectly.

Any clues on this? Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Kendaihou:
Hey,

I've had light flow every since 4.3 and it was working fine. Since I have updated 4.4 kit Kat, I noticed some things that aren't working or bugging out. I have custom vibrations set up with some apps that have been a hit or miss when I get a notification for it. Doesn't always happen but it happens. One other thing, is the hangouts and SMS/MMS light thing. I have the all hangouts one colour and SMS/MMS another colour. When I get an SMS or MMS the hangout colour will go off rather than the colour I set for SMS/MMS. Happened to me a couple of times but very rarely, not a big deal.

Oh and the late Falcon Pro twitter app doesn't light up any more on 4.4 KitKat like it did on 4.3 jelly bean when I get a new tweet or whatever. Might have gotten taken off?

Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] el_joel:
I have the paid version since this is one of the better apps I have on my device. Since 4.4 update, I have noticed it does not blink for notifications. During the tests, it has no issues, but when I have real notifications, the LED just does not blink at all (any notification).

Personally, I think it is amazing how we have direct support from the developer at this forum ( Thanks, Andrew!! )
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] lonequid:
I seem to be having issues with 8sms and the quick reply; when the quick reply closes and removes the notification Light Flow doesn't seem to recognize that the notification was cleared. Do you need me to take/send logs of this happening?

Why is lightflow using so much ram (over 150mb+) on kitkat 4.4.2??
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] csorvagep:
The Hangouts notification is not working with my N4. I've tried to enable all Hangouts related notification, but it doesn't blink the led.

And I also found a bug with the test mode. When I switch off the screen as soon as it tells me, the notification is freeze, till I switch the screen on again. But when I wait some seconds, it works well. (The all LED test works well, I don't have to wait there.)

Anyone with the same issue?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Kendaihou:
Light flow works well with kit Kat. Only problem it crashes on my phone daily , cause me to restart my phone or it doesn't work anymore.

Any ideas?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] ralphreyes:
I ultimately had to uninstall Light Flow because it stopped working for me all of a sudden and I think it was after 4.4.2. I noticed when SMS/MMS/Hangouts wouldn't show notifications after a while then other apps eventually. I'd be happy to t/s if Dev needs someone to test. Regarding the test LED option: I think it would be better if instead of waiting the countdown it would just do it as soon as turning the screen off. Just my 2c.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Vlad Paul:
Awesome app, i purchased today. Thank you! :)
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Kendaihou:
Did the Dev forget about his own app or something? No update since November. The constant crashing is a horrendous pain in the ass on KitKat. Is there any way to stop the crashing or minimize it from going down repeatedly

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] andrewpmoore:
Hell no, quite the opposite! I've just been getting no sleep. Since the start of November I've hardly had a night finishing before 1am (it's 12:45 am now in the UK) I've not had chance to reply on the forums much from dealing with support of trying to sort out the issues, there's never been an android release cause so many issues for me.

The development version seems to be running much better and I should be getting it into beta test this week with a release all being well approx a week after that.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Kendaihou:
Alright, thanks for the update! Thought you disappeared on us :p:D:p . I've been waiting patiently I can do it for a couple more weeks. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to the update!

Sound notifications

Anybody else having issues with sound notifications on KitKat 4.4.2?

Lately the sound notifications don't seem to work for me; I have no idea if it's because of the latest Light Flow updates or because of KitKat, but for sure this problem appeared only recently.

Thanks!

Love this app but it's using a lot of ram on my N4 (stock rom), 202 mo for 46 hours uptimes..

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] andrewpmoore:
Are you on the lite version as this should be fixed in the full version and rolling out to the lite version soon
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] onclebob:
Yeah i'm using lite version. consider buying the full version to support you since i'm using it since almost 2 years :)

It's easy to import parameters from light version? Do i need to uninstall lite before installing the full?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] andrewpmoore:
The process is go into tools, backup and back up the lite version settings.

Uninstall, install the full version then just go to tools, restore

If you want cycling colors at a speed faster than the light version which is only really slow, there's two settings to change

Lightflow, settings

Notification method on battery And Notification method on charge.

The defaults for the full version are medium on battery And cycle fast on charge. As you'll have restored the lite settings which don't have these they'll be set to very slow
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] onclebob:

Something really got messed up.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Kendaihou:
All good here. The update fixed everything including the constant crashing which I don't get anymore. Awesome work Dev!

I noticed the dev added a "stop too many notifications" under the custom vibration tab. I put it for 10 seconds. Now I don't know if its me or something but after a while my custom vibrations stop kicking in until I open light flow.

Other than that the update was awesome and everything is fixed.

Lite flow issues with dashclock

I know about that one! I got 15,000 reports in 11 hours. Hopefully 3.6.0 has fixed it for you!

---------- Post added at 07:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 AM ----------

It won't do anything (yet). It wasn't supposed to be in the release, but in the mad panic regarding getting over 100 emails per minute (yes per minute) at one point yesterday I quickly pushed out the update.

I quickly hacked out the dashclock options, but missed that setting. Over the next few days I'll put it all back in and release. I just hadn't quite finished it yet so decided to quickly remove it.

Once there, you'll get up to 5 notification options in the dashclock settings page (I can add more if people need more than 5). They will work in priority order (based on the new priority drag and drop settings in lightflow). Yesterday my plans for the evening were to tidy up a few more dashclock options (it's been quite a big thing to add) until gmail pushed their update. Just glad that a few kind google employees had contacted me while it was in beta as it took a good few weeks to actually do the fix.

I didn't have a version of the new release of gmail beta (due to NDA's) and didn't know what was coming, but I did get crash reports of feedback from some kind google folk! Just a shame I didn't have chance to fix the complete next release of lightflow before they pushed the update.

I'm quite enjoying having dashclock show me my traffic delays from google now though via the (upcoming) release of lightflow![/QUOTE]

Go into lightflow, notification settings, sms and on the first tab set the last 4 options to

On

Off

On

And see if that helps.

I've more improvements coming for messenger very soon.

If you add battery charging and battery charged, do either show up? If not try add the lightflow debug widget to a home screen and see what it shows when you have the issue.
