Andrew, the app is working much better after the latest update. Thanks for the great app.

I am experiencing something unexpected on e-mail notifications. I have the Light Flow set to clear when I unlock the phone. The Light Flow notification does initially clear. However, if I do not remove the e-mail notification from the notification bar, I will get a another Light Flow notification (complete with my custom vibrate pattern and blinking LED). The only way to stop the notification from appearing a second time is to remove it from the notification bar.

I've done some testing, and this doesn't pop up every time. Also, it appears that it will repeat only once, but I haven't tested enough to know for sure.

EDIT: My testing shows that it came back again for a third time.

I do NOT have reoccurring notifications turned on.

I will send this also via the "contact us" option.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] zoltrix:
Im trying LEDBlinker now too, and even this one isnt showing multiple notifications properly

First notification color, then second color forever.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] tracerit:
followed your instructions on enabling "Hangouts - All Notifications" and it works now. Thanks for the reply!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] sparhawk6:
CPU usage and keep awake is much better in the latest version. However, memory usage is still astronomical. Is it supposed to be this high?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] NiceCarpet:
I don't think so...
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Nastybutler:
Hmm. I'm using the paid version now and it alternates between at least two colors for me. I just got a text while the phone was on a charge pad and it worked as it should.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] d_phekt:
Sucks. Seems that none of the led apps I've tried have working "always on". I also have issues with multiple notifications. Tried the newest version of LightFlow and kept getting random multi led colors when switching screen off
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] zoltrix:
Hmm. I don't know

I guess I'm expecting a 1:1 ratio of flashing for all

If I have an email, text and bbm I expect red then green then blue, repeating, with perfect spacing and timing on each

That is not how any of the apps I tried work.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Nastybutler:
I think if you have a variety of blink speeds that will cause them to not space out evenly. Maybe try having all the speeds be the same and see if that improves it.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] zoltrix:
Yea i tried already

I even uninstalled and reinstalled without restoring my config
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] jeffreii:
Thanks Andrew. I noticed that the latest update broke my SMS notifications. After reading this, I enabled Hangouts- All Notifications (with all settings disabled except for the notification itself) and it started working again. Actually, the first test after enabling it I only got the vibration and the LED. I then did a reboot and now it's worked 3 times in a row.

Keep up the great work and thanks again!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] andrewpmoore:
I've managed to make a change last night to fix this in development so hangouts doesn't need to be on.

As for the memory usage, I'm looking into this. It's certainly something new to kitkat that's happening for a few users. It also happens for some on the nexus 5.

It doesn't happen for me, but does for one of my beta testers so hopefully I'll be able to work it out with his help.

---------- Post added at 06:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 AM ----------

Maybe start with the "always on" flash speed and see if things work. Add the lightflow debug widget to a homescreen as sometimes people have a notification on that they don't expect so that helps track down issues too.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Bluewall:
Guys I've found a big bug in Lightflow. And I also found the fix for it !

Many people are experiencing problem with the LED on the Nexus 5. And some even have done an RMA for it. But here's the explanation !

Picture this scenario :

You install lightflow but for some reason you decide to disable it or uninstall it. Your LED won't work at all anymore. And that's weird right ? Like, what Lightflow killed my LED or something ?

Kind of. But not exactly !

Even after uninstalling Lightflow, the phone seems to remember that it's an app that handles the LED and not the default standard management by the OS.

So the fix is pretty simple actually, just install again lightflow, go in settings to "Main LED control" And here, change "Light Flow controls the LED" to "Default device behaviour"

That's why some people say "I don't know what's wrong, my LED only works with Lightflow now". And this is pretty tricky because even uninstalling the app doesn't solve the problem ;)

Hope it helps !
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] mrruin:
I dont know, I since switched to LEDblinker and that app has been working without hitch right from the start so there has to be smething on the software side that is creating a problem on the Lightflow side. Lightflow - to me - seems also very bloated with more settings than you can shake a stick at which in turn might make actually fixing this annoying bug troublesome.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] andrewpmoore:
Has anyone else seen this. The app just issues a standard android API call to the led notification and when I uninstall the app it just reverts back to the white led.

---------- Post added at 09:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:43 AM ----------

The thing that makes lightflow complicated is usually down to contact specific notifications and things like seperating sms and chat messages with hangouts.

As for ledblinker, quite a few of it's code routines actually came from me with frequent questions from their developer on how to get things working before releasing their app
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] mrruin:
Yeah I do not want to advertise another app in your thread, bought the full version of lightflow a long time ago and it has always been my go to app regarding LED colors. Just wanted to point out that LEDblinker is working on a phone that before was not working reliably at all with either a baked in custom ROM LED implementation, light manager or lightflow. I am not sure what the difference is since I am not code savvy. Maybe I messed something up along the way that got fixed with LEDblinker install.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] tracerit:
do you have the latest version of lightflow? this newest update works great. no issues at all.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] trepamuros:
I'm using Light Flow for some time and I'm glad with it. Best app out there!

After updated my Nexus 4 to 4.4 stock unrooted yesterday, it seems like LED is not working correctly on incoming calls: It only blinks for a moment, then anymore. It should blink fast when phone is ringing, during all the ring time, just like before. No changes made in app setting.

Any clues?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] tosin01:
I take it I have to get the paid version as the lite version I'm finding to be very buggy. I wouldn't want to pay for the full version if it doesn't work properly.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] jeffreii:
I doubt it. Andrew is not the kind of dev to force you to pay for his product in order to get rid of bugs...have you upgraded to the latest version?

He mentioned already that he has even more fixes/optimizations that he's working on, but has released (yesterday) an update to address some issues.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] tosin01:
Awesome, thanks for your response.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Evo_Shift:
I noticed after the last update it wasn't working but a reboot fixed it. I am sure people have tried that but maybe some haven't. The current version is working great for me though I don't use hangouts which seems to be causing some of the issues. I also don;t have any contact specific notifications set up. I use k9 mail and 8sms. 8sms works but only if I set up the stock sms notification and use alternate on monitoring. If I use the 8sms specific notification setting within lightflow it will not work. I use the popup as well which I think can create issues with the light but it is working for me with these settings.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] b1g1an:
I dabbled with ledblinker which worked fine but is not for me as you can't have different settings for different email accounts. Tried the latest version of ligjtflow and all my problems seem to have gone now. Thanks for your continued dedication to the cause.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Lownita:
I disabled "run in foreground" and enabled "reduce wake". Will it work well with those?

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] webvictim:
Weird to see so many people having issues with Light Flow in this thread. I've had the paid version installed since the first day I got my Nexus 5 and it's worked flawlessly since. I did notice the issue where the LED doesn't stay on permanently (I have mine on static red for charging and static green for charged) but that's a pretty minor thing. Notifications for everything else work exactly as I'd expect them to, follow my priority list and I don't have any extra battery drain or CPU usage due to this. Never even see the app in the battery list.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] N-Forced:
Ever since the last update the app quit working entirely for me, it tests fine but every time I get a notification it'll flash for less then a second then nothing.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] mrro82:
Anyone here try light manager? It's working flawlessly for me.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] N-Forced:
Just tried it, working great thanks for the suggestion.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] mrro82:
No prob. I see people having issues with other apps so I figured I'd speak up. Glad it's working for you too.

Sent from the jaws of my Hammerhead!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Chad_Petree:
Should I just enable one of those options ? Not both ? or should both options be on? Neither option works for me , I still keep getting the stock slow blue notification light for hangouts :'(
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] PsychDrummer:
I'm having the same issue. I recieved a replacement Nexus 5 today and while Light Flow worked on the previous one (I'm assuming I just didn't update it) this one is having issues. The gmail notifications aren't working and the SMS is sometimes working but only blinks once or twice. I have it set to "don't automatically turn off" too.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] andrewpmoore:
You've a slight increase in change of missing a notification if android kills lightflow in routine clean-up processes with memory management.

THe wakelock option should be fine to be checked though.

---------- Post added at 09:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:09 AM ----------

Is stock blue? I thought pretty much everything was white on nexus devices.

You should just need one to be on. Try add the lightflow debug widget to a homescreen is see which notifications the app thinks are on.

You should see stuff like HANGOUTS is ON, SMS is ON etc

If the notification listner/accessibility last accessed isn't updating, try going into your phone settings,security, notification access and trying switching the lightflow option off and back on.

---------- Post added at 09:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 AM ----------

Does the lightflow debug widget show the notifications as being on?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] H3ISENB3RG:
does anybody know how or if it works to enable the flashlight by an incoming phonecall?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Jnewell05:
Not for me. Go to setting tick option for light flow control camera led/flash. And enable it under one of ur notifications.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] pagy:
my SMS via hangouts light totally doesnt work anymore... MMS works though
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] zappoo:
Everything works great for me - EXCEPT one issue. Every now and then i'll notice the stock white pulsing light. The only notifications in my tray are email.

this does NOT happen for all emails. Only some. In the stock email app, I have 3 email accounts. 2 exchange, 1 pop. The pop one has notificaitons completely turned off. the 2 exchange ones have notifications on, but sound/vibrate off.

In light flow, I have tried

a) Disabling email notifications

b) Enabling but disabling the 'light' part

Neither seem to fix it. Again, it's random - not all the time. Once or twice a day.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] cc16177:
I have the same issue... with my exchange email. I'm not sure what's causing it.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] jeffreii:
Hi Andrew - just some feedback from the last few days since the latest update.

95% of the time everything is working perfectly. Just when I think all my issues are fixed, it acts up on me again!

-Today it started failing to make the ringtone on notifications/calls etc. Hangouts, phone call, etc. The vibrate and LED worked fine, but the ringtone/notification would play for like 100ms then stop. I tested it out a bit and found that if the screen was on when receiving the notification/call, the sound would play. If the screen was off, it would either play 100ms or not play anything at all (LED/vibrate working fine though). A reboot solved it...

-I often notice the LED turn on for a split second when I turn the screen off. This seems to occur when I have notifications that I've cleared in Light Flow but not in Android.

-Overall it just seems like there's a 5% chance of the notification not working properly and it's a bit maddening since I test it like crazy and everything works perfectly then later in the day I get some issues!

I'm sure you're working really hard to get it fixed and I have 100% faith in you. Keep up the great work and let me know if I can do any sort of testing with my issues.

-Jeff

EDIT: I spoke too soon. I called myself after the phone rebooted, screen off, and it worked fine. However, I got a phone call 5 minutes later and it didn't work again, just like above. Repeated tests resulted in the same issue. I guess a reboot doesn't fix it. Not sure what to do now or what caused this to start happening...

EDIT 2: I rebooted again. Called again. It worked. Once again, though, the second test failed (same way as above). I'm not sure why it works once then stops working? BTW the REPEAT sounds work fine. It's the initial notification/sound that is failing.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] secondclaw:
I gave up on it today. It mostly works but seems to get stuck after a call, the missing call light keeps blinking even after I dismiss the notification. Then for the past few days it stopped completely. Instead of messing with it some more I just uninstalled it and will look for another app. I'm on ART, so maybe it has something to do with it.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] floepie:
Great app, working for the most part, except for the persistent SMS notifications at times. I just wish we could put this burning question to bed though, as the answer seems to have differed depending on the version.

If receiving SMS via Hangouts, must one have BOTH Hangouts LED notification active AND All SMS Apps LED notification active simultaneously?

It's VERY unclear, especially on the Nexus 5. Thanks, Andrew!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] quendil:
I dont have the problem with the persistent SMS notification. I have enabled only the Hangouts All Notifications Types and sms notification works fine.

My only problem with Lightflow is that if i activate the screen and then deactivate it without dismissing a notification, the LED rapidly flashes for a couple of seconds before displaying the normal blinking light again.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] jeffreii:
[MENTION=220547]andrewpmoore[/MENTION]

I am currently circumventing the problem by changing the notification sounds (only) to system sounds and disabling them in Light Flow. I'm looking forward to a way to fix this without losing that functionality! Thanks, Jeff

why Ligth flow occupies 178MB of my RAM on my nexus5???

Hi guys

I just gave a try yesterday on this app and have to say that it worked very well ... But it just sucked my batterie from 50% to 9% in about an hour and a half ... Anyone experiencing that kind of issue ?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] phoboss:
I have the issue that sometime, before the normal LED blinking I set up for a given app start, it first flashes in all colors really quick. after that, everything works normally.

and one other thing, I dont know if bug or feature, but is it possible to silence the ringtone for incoming call when pressing the volune rocker keys? works for me when not using light flow for incoming calls, but when I setup light flow to notify me about incoming calls, i cant silence the ringer with the volume rocker... really annoying.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] thasilenthacker:
if a custom rom says that in settings/about phone/status that you phone number is unknown just use this sim number changer to change you sim number to your phone number and then it will pop up so apps can regonize your phone. as miui needs to send u a sms when u make a new account using your phone number in about phone which when i installed on my p769 said unknown but this will fix it.

also need to install xposed framework

install sim number changer then xposed framework,

install/update xposed and go into modules and check snc(sim number changer)

reboot your phone and go into snc and put in your number and click change and bam there ya go :)

And I'm sure it's a grainy 720p. Front cameras are always turds.
[Nexus 5 General] hatyrei:
Yup, Nexus 5 front facing camera video recording sucks....I was hoping it records 1080p now. Cuz it's new and Google didn't even pointed that one.

I saw a Chinese phone commercial with a 10 or 13 MP front facing camera with wide angle lens and BSI, I wonder if we got those innovations in US markets,,,I love taking selfie photos and skype video chat or hangouts. It would be a great option.
[Nexus 5 General] cas8180:
Seriously getting so sick of all these complaint threads.
[Nexus 5 General] msavic6:
Doesn't really matter what the front camera resolution is for video chat apps. Skype and hangouts will compress your video to 480p levels and lower so your 1080p camera is practically useless unless you take selfies and video through the actual Camera app.
[Nexus 5 General] jdubau55:
Agreed. Tried video chat with my wife aver Hangouts and it was subpar with her on a mobile connection. I'd rather have 480P or less and it actually be a video chat than a web cam chat from 2001.

"Camera

1.3MP front facing"

1280x720=921600 or .92MP

1920x1080=2073600 or 2.07MP

Which one of those numbers fits within the bounds of 1.3MP? Google made it pretty clear.

Can't get more pixels than what's there.
[Nexus 5 General] hatyrei:
The link you posted says "Not Found" . Anyways thanks for letting me know...I didn't even know that! It's not in their product page! Well kinda disappointed.
[Nexus 5 General] hatyrei:
Not really! Skype supports Full HD video chat and it will only get crappy"compressed" if you have bad internet connections or the the WiFi speed can't support large data bandwidth for HD videos.
[Nexus 5 General] msavic6:
As far as I am aware, Skype for Android does not support HD video. Skype for desktop supports Full HD video and I believe Skype for iPad/iPhone supports HD video.
[Nexus 5 General] HiddenSanctum:
What you are thinking abut is the Oppo N1, a 5.9 inch phablet with a rotating camera. No company is going to put a 13MP font facing and back facing camera into a phone (at least not yet). For one it wouldn't fit not to mention the N1 is a $580 phone and you are comparing it to a 350-400$ phone.
[Nexus 5 General] msavic6:
Quit using the price as an excuse for everything, the nexus costs the same to build as pretty much every other phone. The reason it costs less than other devices is that Google is a marketing company so they save on those costs and they lower their profit margins compared to Apple and Samsung. This isn't the place to discuss this but im getting sick of reading "what did you expect? Its a $400 device"

Heck, some of the people in this forum would argue its fine for a $350 Nexus device to not even make calls since its only $350.
