Anyone got the rear LED working with Lightflow? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone figured out how to get the rear power button LED working with lightflow or similar? Lightflow controls the front LED nicely, and I've played with controlling the other LED's with it, but none of them work, and I'm not sure which is supposed to be the rear LED. It would be really cool to get it to flash for texts and such.

Are you referring to this or something more detailed?

I have that checked, but it doesn't do anything, at least for me. Front LED works great, no luck on the rear one. Does yours work? I'm on CM11

That's for "button back light" meaning the light behind the front buttons not "back button light". Big difference there.

Thanks for clarifying. I actually wondered about that. But I couldn't figure out what difference it would make my checking it. I never have my phone facing down to really care what the light on the back button is doing anyway. Lol

Crap, I knew there was a reason I didn't originally have that checked. I'm dumb, lol.
Anyway, as far as the "non controled" LED's listed at the bottom, anyone have any luck getting them to work
I like having my phone upsidedown sometimes.

I had that working on my HTC DNA..yes it has also a back LED! But now on the G2 it seems that lightflow has no control on it
If anyone has a solution please share!

Lightflow should support it after the most recent update. Enable root mode and it should work

Are you sure?? Is it working for you? Because I enabled the root mode, and it shows back led 1 and back led 2, so I enabled both of them but nothing light .... could you please explain step by step how it does work for you???

Can you give me some help too? ;D
I'm on CM 11 and it seems like the light turns on when i get a call and SOMETIMEs when I get a text but thats it.
i would like the rear light button on the back to act exactly as if i was in stock.

Well I tried it out and bought the pro version of light flow and to say I'm dissapointed. The control of the back light does work but it doesn't pulse or pulse slowly on and off. the power button light just stays lit.

You have to go to settings go all the way down the page and it should be listed in additional LEDs as button blacklight. I enabled 1 and 2 because I think I enabled just one and half of the button lit up when I enabled both the button was fully lit

[Solved] Backlight Screen Problem

I have a backlight problem with my HTC EVO Shift. The backlight has stopped working consistently. I believe it has something to do with the cable in between the slider part. When my phone is completely shut, the backlight is not working. When my phone is completely open (keyboard exposed) the backlight is not working. when my phone is in the halfway position (keyboard partly exposed) the backlight illuminates the screen and I am able to use the phone. It is very difficult to continue to use the mobile device in the halfway point. I have another mobile device on the way but I will need to see the screen in order to get the rest of my data off, or at least make a nandroid backup and go from there.
If it is not the cable then can someone point me in the right direction. If it is the cable/screen could someone tell me where to get a replacement. I am capable of doing repairs. I would rather not if it is avoidable.
thank you xda community.
Re: Backlight Screen Problem
Main flex cable could be your issue. Grab the part from eBay

Mine is working but for some reason I can't use the default "messages" notification. I have to use the specific one for handcent. It was also causing some issues with my gallery and stock browser.

I didn't realize people are still using this after SIII since we DO have an LED notification light and apps like Light Flow and Light Manager to control them now.... any reason I'm not understanding? Feeling nostalgic or are more of a visual learner preferring to see the icon instead of a flashing light?

For me I like the larger, brighter, moving icon that catches my attention faster than a single LED. To each their own though.

Of course, just wondering! Thanks for your insight :good:
Can you look at the led light and tell whether an incoming message is Gmail or a text? NoLed has icon notification that lets you know what is coming vs just a blinking light.

I can tell the difference. I use Handcent SMS and it allows for custom LED notifcations, also a few roms had custom led color features.

If you had searched for Light Flow or Light Manager, you'd know that those apps are designed specifically to change the notification lights to tell you what app is has a notification.... So.... Yeah, there's that.... Hmmm

Go to Settings\Accessability and disable talk back or something similar. This features are for disabled people, dunno how you enabled it by mistake.

that's the proximity sensor, which you can't see with your naked eye but you can film it.

Ya i guess will do that, but a little later. Phone works fine otherwise and honestly i don't even think i will use any of this features, maybe wait for a few months and then get a new one in exchange
It won't work in dark environment, you need to be in good light.

Yes it a frustrating, I have not been able to get it to work either...also S-health does not work. Two apps that I really liked. Hopefully both will get fixed soon. I did get to use Android Pay today with Nougat as I de-rooted and went stock after coming from Pure Nexus. Miss all the tweaks however...
