LED still showing despite switched off - Galaxy S III General

My only grouse so far. I have disabled all led notifications but seems is not working. I still get to see the led flashing with emails , messages, n in charging mode
Is this a possible hardware issue
Is there any place I can edit the system files to disable it
Thanks

Is there a chance you have Light Flow installed? Well if you don't try installing it to see if it shuts off. Then uninstall it because Light flow has other issues right now;

Well try activating it to see if it fixes the problem. If hard reset doesn't fix it then it sounds like a possible hardware problem.

considering you would have to go into a setting somewhere within the camera app to turn on the LED light what you are saying doesnt seem like much work.

so after doing some research it turns out that our phones wont blink for more than 2 or 3 mins(cant seem to find the correct length of time)...people have suggested to use missed call apps or LED notification apps off the market
i havent tried any of those but you may want to check out some and see if they help

Ahhh, thank you.

[Q] keypad lock?

Are there any apps available that can lock out the buttons or change which button to wake the phone only.
I know i can lock the screen but when its in my pocket the screens keeps coming on and draining the battery. So maybe something that will lock out the front buttonts and wake only with the volume key.
Ive seen pocket lock and sensor lock but they're old apps and cant find an updated version.
Thanks
Here is a flashable zip file which will disable wake from front facing buttons. Make sure you have wake on volume enabled!!!! Or you will NEVER wake your phone
Install it just like you install any other flashable zip file in CWM
Thanks for that.

Okay, only reason i ask is cause each device/ROM is different so im just curious
Hi, flashed it last night all working perfect. I'm using MIUI-2.3.30 and kernel 2.6.32.15-tytung r14-g6333fda, hope that helps.
Thanks again.

Disable screen-on for Stock Messaging app notification

I like the stock app for its pop-over notification, but I hate the screen-on. Is there a way to turn just that piece off?
I am rooted, so I don't know if maybe there is a db value I can flip or a method call I can short-circuit...

[Q] Read LED Notifications

Hi all. I have been doing some searching around for a way to get the rear LED to light up in any way shape or form for apps, specifically SMS.
Has anyone found a way to get it on AT ALL using apps like Light Flow or Light Manager? Stock or a custom ROM? If you have gotten it on in anyway at all, please let me know! (And how you did it please)
I spent some time emailing with the LightFlow dev last night too, and he is interested in getting control over it too. So anything to get it on is great.
Thanks everyone!

In another thread it was stated that Flashnotification works (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.manzy.flashnotification). I did not try it yet.

Just tried, same results.
I have it half on with this app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1958939
Working on full access. Ill keep everyone updated.
To use that app install it and enable it in accessibility. Then open the app and go to auto locate. Choose your LED here. "button-backlight1" is for the left, "button-backlight2" is for the right. It will probably just show you up to the word "button: though. But it appears twice, once on the left of the screen, once on the right. Choose either side. And that's it. It will flash when you get a notification.
Light flow works for me rooted on stock Rom. ...you have to enable it in settings then enable it in the setting for the specific notification You want. .. but now blink or pulse. ....tell the light flow dev to add this option to his app

I sent him an email about this a few minutes ago. But light flow also only lights up half of the ring, the right side to be specific. If you use the app I linked above you can get either half (left or right) working and it blinks!
Ill let you know any updates I get, but at least it is half blinking now!
Worked some more with the light flow dev. We have gotten the FULL led ring to light up! It is currently solid. Ill post more as it develops.
In the meantime here is a picture of my device, using lightflow, when I receive an SMS. Enjoy for now!
