Try to disable "Force Nexus 5 LED Reset" (works also withouth permissive mode) which helps a little. Also altough there are many Lightflow wakelocks they don't drain that much battery. Look how long they kept you phone active. Won't be that much time.

I can get 3-4 days without charging and about 4-5h SoT easily with Lightflow enabled:
[Nexus 6  General] streetracer8605:
I'll have to give that a shot. I'm very jealous of your signal, haha.
[Nexus 6  General] Sleeepy2:
My cheat to get light flow to blink with Tasker (sort of)

In Tasker I have it set to "Run In Foreground" so that it always has a notification

In LightFlow add Tasker as for Notifications

Then in the settings Enable Mixer and turn all 3 LED's to off.

Voila it will now blink

Hmm, just removed tasker and set Notification - All to off and this works also. No need for tasker to run in foreground anymore :)
[Nexus 6  General] mugendon:
Cool idea, i have llama running always as Notification and will try it :)

Should also work with things like: wifi on, signal found or priority/all/none mode so that you don't need a permanent Notification for it.
[Nexus 6  General] Televinken:
So, what do I have to do to make the LED blink/flash, exactly?

If this really works, you've truly made a great find, indeed!
[Nexus 6  General] mugendon:
Just what he posted. All steps are included.
[Nexus 6  General] cmh714:
Interesting.....I cant seem to find the Mixer in LightFlow anymore.
[Nexus 6  General] Sleeepy2:
Click the 3 dots on the event and that opens the option menu for the task. Swipe once to the right and there is all of the mixing settings.
[Nexus 6  General] billybloxx:
been testing this out

been playing around with this app for a few days...very kool
[Nexus 6  General] cmh714:
Not there. what version do you have? mine is 3.51.1

I have been using Light Flow for a few years....
[Nexus 6  General] Sleeepy2:
Same version, it's there may be my explanation isn't very good. It's in the per-application section. If you are using the dark theme the 3 dot menu button is not very easy to see. In the list of applications where you select the color, to the right is a 3 dot menu. Click it. When the screen opens Swipe right and then scroll down.
[Nexus 6  General] cmh714:
I can get there, but there isnt any Enable Mixer anymore. Post up a screenshot of what you have.

Under the light settings is what I believe you are talking about for a specific Notification setting on an app. I have Light duration, LED flash rate and others but no more Mixer...

[Nexus 6  General] stumpy352:
I'm on Chroma ROM & ElementalX kernel & I no longer have the mixer option either. I think it may be something to do with the native led control in the ROM. (Not using lightflow, just testing to confirm)
[Nexus 6  General] Sleeepy2:
I am on stock. Only other thing I can think of is to follow all the steps of OP
[Nexus 6  General] cmh714:
I havent flipped back to Stock to check but will probably do so sometime in the next few days....not a real big deal as LF works fine, but if I could get flash/blink to work again that would be fantastic!!

thx all!
[Nexus 6  General] Televinken:
Well I'm on stock rooted, & it won't work on my Nexus.

It blinks ok, but only randomly. Suddenly it works for a

few seconds, only to disappear for 10-30 seconds.

Seems very unstable and unreliable. No good.

:(
[Nexus 6  General] wtherrell:
Mixer option not present on mine unless root mode is checked also. Maybe it's inadvertently unchecked?
[Nexus 6  General] cmh714:
Nope, Root mode needs to be checked in order for LF to work at all, so that is checked.....however, selecting Direct Mode, exposes the Mixer panel.

Thanks all for helping out.....of course, I think that was crashing LF lately but will experiment again.
[Nexus 6  General] GrayBoltWolf:
CM12 now has native support for the Nexus 6's LED. Full RGB colors and everything.

http://i.imgur.com/ahKbAqI.jpg
[Nexus 6  General] Obscure Reference:
Nice..!

Still just a steady light or have they managed to make it blink or pulse as well?
[Nexus 6  General] GrayBoltWolf:
No pulsing yet, but hopefully that will be fixed in an upcoming build.
[Nexus 6  General] Obscure Reference:
Ought to be possible tbh. I mean, if you can turn a led on and off (since it turns off after clearing a notification) you ought to be able to make it blink or pulse. Here's hoping!
[Nexus 6  General] stumpy352:
It is possible as I understand it. Code could be written to make it happen & I know some are using a tasker event that turns it off straight after it turns off, thus creating a blinking effect. But, and this is a BIG BUT, at this point the only known ways would use so much battery while its blinking that it would out way the benefits. Rest assured that there are competent devs working to implement proper native code, either through the kernel or in android itself to get it working correctly.
[Nexus 6  General] dbareis:
I have followed all the steps from many sites, my Nexus 6 is rooted and on stock 5.0.1. I found this thread and have followed all the steps here and unchecked and rechecked all the checkboxes (and I'd already had all on). I'm using the mixer with values below 20. SuperSU logs and notifications confirm root access for light flow.

Hopefully the DEV will in future map the RGB values to mixer ones...

It does not work for me. I have made the notification persistent, check accessibility and app notification settings.

How can I tell if my LED is working (no manufacturing fault) ? Is it supposed to be visible when charging (because it isn't).

Thanks for any help,

Dennis
[Nexus 6  General] mugendon:
For Testing: You could use a custom kernel like leankernel and activate the charging LED feature.

For general fixing the issue: Try uninstalling (including sd folders of lightflow) and reinstalling with reboots between.
[Nexus 6  General] drawde40599:
Don't use mixer values . stock kernel ?
[Nexus 6  General] dbareis:
Yes I'm on stock, I thought that required the mixer...

I'm only trying specific notifications, I assume that is ok, for example mixer on calendar but not inbox etc.

I have just updated LightFlow (paid app) and in the change log it mentions flashing LEDs for Nexus 6.

Has anyone managed to get this working since the update? What options do i need to enable?
[Nexus 6  General] mexiking713:
Choose a notification > settings > light > scroll down to led mixer and enable it. Check app controlled flash then choose your color and brightness. Make sure you set them as solid. Test them and they should flash.
[Nexus 6  General] xdatastic:
Thanks! It was the solid setting i had incorrect.
[Nexus 6  General] stumpy352:
Mine flashes once then stays off.
[Nexus 6  General] Obscure Reference:
How well does it work now? Any issues, like battery drain for instance?
[Nexus 6  General] dbareis:
It is working after today's app update, with our without mixer. Blinking only worked with mixer and app blinking. It stopped working if I tried h/w blinking.

I turned off the blinking as it was too intermittent
[Nexus 6  General] Televinken:
+1

Does NOT work. The blinking is totally random. At first I thought it actually worked

but after noticing the blinking going on/off randomly, I turned it off completely. . .

:(
[Nexus 6  General] noraef:
Started playing with that today: 5.0.1, stock kernel, rooted, paid Light Flow: so basically, it seems to be three leds - red, green, blue, from top to bottom. And they only somehow mix into another color if they're next to each other, ie:

- red+green~=yellow, but with some red visible on top

- green+blue~=light blue, but with darker blue visible on bottom

- red+blue=red+blue, clearly separated

Or is there something I missed? Also, color intensity in the mixer doesn't seem to change a thing...
[Nexus 6  General] GrillMouster:
I got blinking working after enabling mixer, app controlled flash, and making the colored LED solid. I haven't tried mixing colors yet; all of my notifications are either red, blue, or green. Therefore, for each notification I only set the appropriate color LED to solid, and left the others off. I noticed that the blinking pattern is random. Sometimes there's a long wait between blinks, other times there's a short wait. Sometimes it blinks once, other times it blinks about four times quickly.

I haven't done any testing
[Nexus 6  General] crypt0kiddie:
Can someone tell me if this is normal? When I install light flow and I set it up per the instructions, if I go in to SU and look at the log there are literally hundreds and hundreds of lines of activity from light flow.

It's like it is non stop updating the SU log.
[Nexus 6  General] david279:
Yea I got that too. It's almost every minute.
[Nexus 6  General] crypt0kiddie:
When I look at my logs I might see them for like, several of them a second. I mean I don't really need to use my logs for anything but I'm just wondering what's going on and is it keeping the phone awake?
[Nexus 6  General] mugendon:
That is normal. You can reduce it by deactivating the "nexus 5 reset" option.

Also you can keep your log clear if you disable logging for LF in your su app.

As for the waking it doesn't do much. Still getting 4 hours sot after three days standby. In wakelook detector you see it mostly as alarm trigger.

Hope that helps.
[Nexus 6  General] crypt0kiddie:
Yeah I know I can just able to log I just wondered what was going on. If that's normal though then I guess I'll just go ahead and disable logging. Thank you!
[Nexus 6  General] noraef:
For those not enthused by the random blinking rate, I sent a mail to the dev asking about that. It seems changes in Lollipop are responsible, and he has started working on correcting the problem ;)

Thanks in advance.

Worked for me for a little bit and rebooted, now light doesn't come on anymore.
[Nexus 6  General] DebianDog:
I got this working but the amount of root su's it does and minute is just ridiculous. I mean I understand it has to poll so it knows when to turn on the light on, but when it shows up in my list of CPU burning applications it just doesn't seem worth it.

Is there a setting to have it poll less often?

I think you did what I did. Go to Settings, LED Control, and turn off all the extra LEDs at the bottom. I suspect the backlight control is what jacks things up.
[Nexus 6  General] Gage_Hero:
Go into apps on super user, set light flow notification to disable, if you download wake lock detector, you see that although it poles a lot, CPU wake is low

20hours of running CPU awake 1 minute, 48 seconds
[Nexus 6  General] DebianDog:
Yes I understand I can make the notifications go away and the logging go away but I just find it annoying from a system admin point of view, it's too frequent for my tastes.

Almost two minutes of CPU time to have a light go on once in awhile seems absurd to me.

In order to reduce the SuperSU log spamming, open Light Flow > Settings > Device Settings and Root and untick "Run every command as root".

Light Flow works just fine without it on the Nexus 6 and the the logging will be greatly reduced.
[Nexus 6  General] mugendon:
That is only true for a permissive kernel, or?

Yes, I use the SELinuxModeChanger app to set it to permissive

[Nexus 6  General] Atomregen:
How to: blinking / flashing led light with light flow

You have to activate the Color Mixer and hook "app controlled flash". So you just look for the color, which should shine and sets a brightness> 0. In addition, the LED status must be set to solid.

Then the LED flashes. The time intervals you can not select unfortunately.

Edit: Screenshot attached

[Nexus 6  General] mrhumble1:
Greetings all-

The vibration patterns and sounds work fine, but the LED does not work properly. The LED will come on, and be the correct color, but it doesnt' flash. It just stays lit. Then when another notification type comes in, the LED waits a long time then it jut changes color and stays solid. Again, it does not flash so there is no way to know if I have multiple notifications. When I had a rooted LG G3 it worked perfectly by flashing the different colors in sequence so I could see there were multiple notification types.

FYI, I am running Euphoria 1.1 (an Android 5.1 ROM) and it uses Leankernel. I have SetLinux status set to Permissive.

I did this and the notification light would not come on at all. This must be enabled for the LED to work.

Any ideas what I can do to get full functionality??

Thanks!!!

[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackinfinity:
I am the only who experience this tendency? That the one ha UI function makes the navigation buttons at the bottom are to the left?

Often when u put it in the table often the navigation button are very often to the left. A bug? To activate one hand UI you need to use a quite rapid motion.. But obviously one hand UI activate when you put it on the table. I hope this problem is solved In the latest firmware (which is not accessible through official channels for eu devices)
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] booc2009@yahoo.com:
If you shake your hand to the left, the navigation bar automatically adjusts to the left. Same thing goes if u shake it to the right.
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackinfinity:
I know how the gestures is working to activate one hand GUI, what I am saying you is that it is not working..

In fact.. it is quite unsensitive so when you want to to activate one hand GUI and make the geasture the the left or right it is kind of hard you really need to do a quite rapid and distinct motion. What I am saying is that the one hand GUI is being activated WITHOUT any gesture at all.. when I am putting it on my table.. most likely it does not lie down on the table 100% straight, so what I am saying here this is simply a bug.. the one hand GUI should be activated by a distinct hand gesture not when it is laying on the desk and you pick up the phone. This makes the whole one hand GUI function very frustrating... it would had been a less problem if it had a tendency to move to the right most of the times since 99% of the time you want it to be on the right.. I wish it was possible to disable it moving it to the left at all..since I am not left handed..

Also.. I wonder..is there any 3rd party app where you can get similar one hand function to Note 4 ? where the whole screen is getting minimized to a small window ? since the Mate7 have a bigger screen then note 4.. the need is even bigger for more One hand functions... to handle a 6 inch device... I hope this will improved with Lollipop as well.. it is clear that android is not optimized for bigger devices. One simple example is google play... to push the "my apps" button you cannot reach it with your right thumb.... I think this will be some of the things that they will look at in versions after lollipop..which is to have more menus at the bottom instead of the top..where people will reach it easier...even on big devices. .. if android and apps in general was more optimized for bigger devices.. the drawbacks of big devices which mainly is you can't reach your thumb over the whole device would be a much less problem.. if the most important parts of interfaces in OS and apps is in the "Thumb zone" where most people reach with one hand use even on 6 inch devices. Nexus 6 is 6 inches..so because of that..I think android after lollipop will be a lot more optimized for bigger screens in general.. also the averge screen size is getting bigger.. 5.5 inches is now really common.. but I think 6 inches.. is where it will stop...

Sure if the mate 7 hade 100% body to screen ratio then sure..it could had bigger screen but I would not like a phone with bigger outer measurements then this.. the limits is here for sure.. going over this limit is just stupid..
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vince_junior:
I understand what you mean, although i have not really tried this one hand function of the mate 7, because i find the solution half-baked in mate 7. In note series (3 & 4 I'm sure), the whole screen is minimized. The current lenovo vibe z2 pro also does the same thing as the note's, which for me is the perfect implementation of the one-hand operation function. Although this function is not a deal breaker for me, cause i still find the mate 7 attractive because of its many other uses.

I'm trying to sync my downloaded music from Google Play to my LG G watch. But, despite trying a few things, I can't seem to force it to sync.

I'm a Google Play Music All Access subscriber- most of the playlists I'm trying to sync are from that service- they're not files I uploaded or purchases from the Google Play store. Also, I've checked, double checked, and triple checked that the Google Play Music option to "Download to Android Wear" is checked. And finally, I've tried removing and redownloading the playlists I'm trying to sync. Figuring it might take a while I gave it overnight, but still nothing is synced on the watch.

Any ideas?
[LG G Watch] itesla:
Did anyone ever figure this out? I also have lots of trouble trying to sync music from Google PlayMusic on phone to LG G watch. I'm just using MP3's from phone though, not streaming/service. The UI for selecting music in PlayMusic still needs work IMO. I have couple GB of music on micro SD in my S7edge. Thankfully PlayMusic now shows the size of "albums" that it lets you select for sync. I try to pick a small one, that is just one song I think, it shows selected and the progress circle shows up but never proceeds. I've rebooted phone and G watch, both have latest software updates.

I have gotten this to work in the past but with various updates or with new phone.... the G Watch has reset to factory a couple times.

Any other ideas???
