[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Guides, News, & Discussion] himfa71:
I didn't use any method, it was already present in rom, but which rom? I forgot about that, because it was before two weeks, that time I flashed back to back 4-5 roms, like miui pro, rr, aosp extended, PA, it was one of those roms, currently I am on stock global stable, because I wanted to sell this device, but I changed my mind, I was getting only 6000rs, now I am going to use it, I will start flashing different roms from tomorrow and will tell you in which multicolour led is working,

Great thread, I don't know how to chek the code name of my device but I think it's MAG138 since it's Global Version.

I have LineageOS Unofficial (10/29 build) and with this command I can see the LED blinking purple and green (after I locked the phone), there is no way to change white LED notification though, every color I choose in settings end up in white LED notification
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Guides, News, & Discussion] BloodWolf9123:
This mobile need specific acess to change led in kernel, but developers in MIUI cant give acess to curer santoni kernel
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Guides, News, & Discussion] Usr666:
You should try Tasker for RGB LED.

I think you can find some methods with Tasker at this forum.

[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Guides, News, & Discussion] leechseed:
I got two MAG138 here both on Xiaomi.eu latest Dev/Beta 7.11.16. One (the old one) is capable of multi color led, one (the new one) isnt.

The only difference i´ve seen is the Display - both EBBG but the newer one is called EBBGDJN.

Also the PCBA SN is different so i guess its a different board. (new VL...Y....... ; old .....F........ - the Dots are Numbers)

You can check it in engineering mode *#*#66#*#*

They also differ from the imprint on the back. Old is clearly readable the new one is almost invinsible.

Old came with EU plug, new one with UK.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Guides, News, & Discussion] cristianpark:
Are you using MIUI? the code doesn't work for me on DotOS which I think support pure Android codes

5 phones with board type F, led didnt work and 3 phones with board type F led working

---------- Post added at 11:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:31 AM ----------

So, according to the findings and what I've been looking at, it looks like the combination of the F board and the EBBG display is triggered and controlled by color led, I have a type F board and a BOE display, and I have only white, and only one part is incompatible; developers did not have the time or did not want to pull on it, so instead of making the payments, they made the led so completely cut out, and the only one to wait or buy for a 25 € new EBBG display and you'll have a color LED :D

Dont know if [MENTION=4484713]cristianpark[/MENTION] tried this. The easiest way (if these codes or apps dont work) would be to backup current rom, flash miui based rom, check board & display, restore backup.

Maybe add manufacturing date, but i think we dont really need this at it seems to be really display only..

On the weekend ill get a BOE &...F..... to check if led works on this.

I tried many different methods. Some worked some didn't. The best results I had with Miui 8 and a simple patch I can try to find it again but it doenst work on latest global beta.

I also tied it with Tasker (http://en.miui.com/thread-1286025-1-1.html) didn't worked as I wanted but it was a good indicator for showing different colors.

Many users test color led wrong and say that they don't have working Rgb led Imo.

Could you add your manufacturing date? I and others guess there is no color led after 09.2017. Like i posted just before. I got three 4X and two made it WITHOUT any seperate patch, just by Xiaomi.eu ROM. Dont remember if it already worked on global dev ROM.

My device have 7 led colors, but only 4 can be used. I have tried using custom kernel and can use all of it(7 colors). Now I'm using aex custom rom that have multi color led workaround (only 4 colors)

To have 7 colors led we need :

1. Custom kernel that support 7 colors led

2. Rom that don't have multi color leds workaround

Since xiaomi it's..... well xiaomi, they usually change some parts of the phone in later production ones like ours, in redmi 4x the fingerprint reader and screen type was changed. So I really doubt that they have changed the rgb led for a white one in this device, maybe this led board that they have changed uses a diferent driver or a custom aw2013 driver, I really don't know what they did that's why i'm searching for it.

I accepted it, but id rather have a bigger battery than in the 4A (only 3k mAh) so better think about that twice. If size doesnt matter you could also go for redmi 5 / A / X whatever they call it now.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Guides, News, & Discussion] xenonism:
Thanks for your contribution. I understand it may sound silly to make a decision based on the notification LED, but it's one of the few features I care about. I have a Redmi 2 now (4.7'', Snapdragon 410, 2200mAh, RGB LED, Dual SIM + microSD) and I am perfectly happy with it, if not for the smashed glass.

I have low, but hard to match expectations for a phone: cheap, small, usable (not TOO slow), RGB LED, Dual SIM+mSD. So size does matter, in fact I wish I could find a 4'' device with barely decent specs, but the market clearly went in the opposite direction (and I'm not getting an iPhone SE). Also, if I am not wrong the Redmi 5 series has a monochrome LED, so I would lose too many of the features I want.

The Redmi 4A would barely feel like an improvement over my current phone, but at least I would retain the RGB LED and the non-outrageous size. If you can think of an alternative that better matches my expectations, I am all ears! :)

Sorry about the OT/blurb. :silly:
