My led light doesng work for my galaxy s8 plus i ha e tried checking the settings, it just doesnt work. The charging led light also doesnt work. It just doesnt work. Have tried to dial *#0*# to check the led setting even in that it doesn't work? Anyone else havjng the same issue?
Just checked mine for you and it works for me in the led tester. Cycles through the 3cilours. You might want to go into safe mode and try that tester again. If it still isn't working... You'll need to cheng your phone
How ti get into safe mode.
And i have been reading various threads that after the latest nougat update it stopped working for people, so im wonderkng if its a software issue or haddware issue
I am having the same problem, it worked when I first got it, then it updated and it stopped working, I have tried everything, even a factory reset, and nothing happens. Also tried the Samsung service menu and nothing.
It's really upsetting the phone is 3 days Old!
I had a note 7 and now This!
Hope the battery doesn't blow up!
Before returning the phone I would do factory reset, also sometimes cycling the setting could get it unstock. Mine worked fine before and after update.
All good and working for me.
There is a similar discussion in a German forum. Seems several people are affected. I cannot post links here, but you'll find it on a known online community site called "android-hilfe" in the Galaxy S8 section.
It happend to my S8+, too. After two days, the LED stopped working, and nothing helped (factory reset etc.). Had to return the phone.
Do you use an app like "Light Manager", "LED Blinker", "LightFlow" or similar?
Users in german forum report, that these apps might cause damage of LED of S8/S8+ :

I did not use such an App.

Forgot that Lightflow was one of the apps Google auto downloaded for me - this was causing my LED to not work right.
Thank you
Hello all.
I am on my second S8+ plus and the LED is now dead again. I use light manager pro and I have the led settings set to start at red when battery is low and then slowly ramp up to green via yellow for 50% to 75% until it hits 76% charge then goes green.
I suspected the app to kill the led in the phone, never happened on my S3, S4, S5 or S6 edge. No root on S8 so it has to use the kernels default brightness settings so it should not be able to kill the LED.....
I suspect that it is simply not built to do more than red, green and blue, when you mix in pinks, orange, purple and more, the thing just dies due to too much power to run all LEDs to create other colors. I think Samsung have gone cheep on us with the notification LED as they believe AOD is the way forward, which out be fine if they could implement a dot on the screen when the display is off, like the notification LED, only AMOLED.
Really upset as I love the rest of the phone but I really use the notification LED a lot and lean on it a great deal.
Same problem here. Stopped working last night after 12 days. I do have Lightflow but it's always worked fine on my S4 and S6.
Returning and replacing today, hopefully.
My S8+'s LED died without using such an app.

Are you using AQDG firmware? There is a user reported that AQDD firmware works fine so far, suspected AQDG firmware update could have spoilt it.

I am still waiting for the replacement phone (don't know the sw version). Mine did not get an sw update though so I cannot blame it for the issue (referring to the thread you linked).

What baseband firmware version are you using on your device with broken LED?

Hello Mckoo, Jevon Greatorex here. I have been emailing with you regarding this issue.
AQDG is current firmware and the first phone died before AQDG. I remember hoping that the update might fix it.
So you should be considering that the firmware before AQDG could be the cooperate if you think it's related at all.

My Led works perfectly and I have all different colours set for my contacts.
I also have edge notifications working perfectly, no red tint, no home button issues, incredible battery life, gmail notifications, no scratches and no issues with bloat.
Did I miss anything? :laugh:

This thread is about a problem. Consider not filling it with bloat and instead give us your base-band number.
Hi all.
I installed Nitrogen OS Oreo with the full knowledge that the LED didn't light up when charging. However, with my brief use of it, the LED never lit up for anything. Since the battery life wasn't to my liking, I installed Fake Nexus 7.1 ROM. The LED still never lit up.
So, I installed Google's stock image for 5.1.1 LMY48T, figuring that should fix things. That didn't work either. "Pulse notification light" is set to on.
I installed LED Tester and it's able to make the LED light up in all its glorious colors, so I don't think it's a hardware issue.
The LED worked fine before installing Nitrogen OS Oreo.
Any idea what happened? Anyone know how to fix it?
Thank you.

Wipe everything and install stock and check.

Installing the stock image wipes everything. Thanks, though.
Since the battery life of the stock image isn't so great, I thought I'd be adventurous and install LineageOS 14.1. last night Somehow doing that has made the LED work again. I'll leave it installed for now and see if I like it.
So I guess the problem is solved, though it's still a mystery.
Well, the name says it all. Upgraded my OnePlus 1 to 16 from 15.1 (flashed over the old ROM + new gapps) -- seems to work overall, but no LED, including when charging. Everything was fine on 15.1. Can anyone confirm this as a bug that will be fixed, or do I need to tweak anything? LED turned on in the settings from everything I could see...
Thanks!
Same here...
Also confirmed on a friend's Oneplus 1, same type of upgrade as mine (flashed over 15.1). Latest nightly did not fix this.
Same situation here, also camera app not working. I installed open camera.
LED seems fixed in the latest nightly, camera app working (and was working before).
Same here, it's a known defect.
LED seems to work now. Only when I get SMS it will not use LED. Might be fixed sooner or later.

Hello,I am currently using redmi note 7. 3/32 gb variant and using pixel experience latest update & magisk installed.from past 2 days i am facing very quick charging and quick discharging issue. Also when i am opening some apps like facebook or youtube for example i am facing automatic restarts.i am not able to use my mobile.
Everytime when there is an incoming call it restarts and i am not able to figure out who is calling me.I tried restarting many times,Tried resetting my mobile and also clean install old version of pixel experience and also clean flashing latest pixel experience rom but no use. Should i go back to stock rom ? Or can it be a battery issue? I bought this phone on may 2019 so just 1 year had been completed.
UP. same issue here . Did you find a solution already ts?

louis.. you have the point exactly..... there seems to be no rom that makes the fone work relaiably, i dont care about features animation whatever, but fone bluetooth etc has to work reliably. "battery drains when fone off " so so so bad the rom cant be used like this. Ive bought 2 new 5g fones recently, the note 4 is way easier to use cause things like big led alert light. The latest missed message alert using aod on xiomi on many models only gives notification for 10 mins !! and 3rd party apps break on updates. please let me know and provide link if you find a note 4 snapdragon trite rom that makes the fone work reliably, and runs around android 9 so that modern apps like my soundbar setup will work.

louis, just so i understand, what exactly is the problem with getting a reliable stable rom, has something changed since android 9 aand 10 released, or did they never work properly? and is this a general rom problem, or is the 910f snapdragon difficult in some way? .. so if i load a custom rom onto my samsung ace 4 willi have the same problems, As said, for £150 can buy fab new 5g fone, but no permenant missed message alert led some no 3.5 jack , sd storage, infra red and of course removable battery. The most annoying is no PERMENANT missed message alert. Its difficult to find out if a particular fone have this or not from the helplines. (For others, the latest mi 11 lite 5g is max 10 mins aod, "permenant" does not exist on the settings menu. and 3rd party apps break on updates )
Actually, I am no expert so I don't what issues are there with new roms, but indeed they are not usable on a daily basis.
