So I updated to Android version 8.1.0 last night and the first thing I noticed is the yellow charging LED does not work.
I looked for settings, but I do not think this is an option to turn on and off.
Anyone else seeing this or other issues with 8.1.0?
Did I make a mistake jumping to 8.1.0 too soon?

Mine works fine as intended.
Charging LED is still working after update. You can enable it Disable it in notification settings.

Thanks for the reply, the blue message LED works fine, my yellow charging LED did not work.
I may power cycle the phone again to see if this sorts the issue and maybe if the battery is close to fully charged for some reason the yellow LED does not come on?
Will see if others have similar issues.
As @seabro01 said above, it's now a setting which is OFF by default.
Go to Settings -> Apps & Notifications -> Notifications -> Toggle Battery charging light.

That's it, thanks, I thought I knew where to find the setting, but must have missed it.

My notification light is alternating between green and orange and I have no clue why..
My battery is low but it should just blink orange for that.
I've done some research and they sat the battery is overheating, the battery is not hot at all so I'm doubting that is the issue.
I'm running ICS currently.
any ideas of what this is.
Also, I can check to see if it's a notification as the LCD is busted until I get it fixed, it's just driving me nuts.
Most probably you have a notification so the LED alternates between red for low battery and green for the notification. It's what it does on mine and I'm on ICS also (I2IEAILiiTY's hybrid)

I bought a replacement battery (not original) and everytime I try charging it the
LED start flashing form green to orange and putting back the old original battery
charges just fine. How do I reset or make it charge it?
Simple question: should the LED be on when charging the device? I've never seen it on...

The LED (I believe) should keep working as normal, whether on charge or not (as long as the tab is on). I don't believe the LED should stay solid on charge (unless you get 3rd-party software to do so anyway)

THOUGHT about it today, I have never seen my LED on. Did a search and it is a known bug, not known if it is the N10 or Android. But is you install "LED color Tester" from the play store, you can test all the colors and confirm it turns on... so it looks like it may be a software bug. Some people can make it turn on temporarily by rebooting their system while it is charging. I personally never saw my LED before I tried the color tester today. nice pretty colrs <grin> too bad it doesn't work.
Here is a link to one of the Google error reports on it: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=40294
I just looked at my tablet while it was sleeping, on charge, and the LED is flashing (got an email). I am on a custom ROM and Kernel though.
Mine never comes on while charging.

Since this morning my notification light is stuck in solid green. I did not install any new apps, rebooting did not fix it. I even powered off the phone and the light remained on. Only removing the battery turns the green led off but as soon as I put the battery back the LED turns back on to green, even without starting the phone again.
Is it me or does this sound like a hardware fault...?
I have a I9505 running stock XXUDMH8, TPH csc. I am not rooted or in any way running a modified system. I have no apps dedicated to overriding LED settings installed.
Any ideas on what to try?
Thanks.
Try a factory reset from settings... but u will loose app data...

As the led stays on even with the phone off, do you believe this will help?
I am not rooted so doing a factory reset is a major thing as I have no backups.

I did a factory reset and it didn't fix the problem. My notification LED is still stuck in green. I guess it's off to warranty.... Not happy.

The LED stays on even with the phone off? If u remove the battery and put it back in?

Yes, the LED stays on with the phone powered off. If I remove the battery the LED quickly fades away but starts back on as soon as I put the battery back in place.

Seems like a problem with the hardware. You need to return it back and most probably warranty will cover it... Try also to disable the notification led from the settings...
I have almost exactly the same problem. Today I left the phone charging overnight and in the morning the notification LED was bright blue. It stayed this way after I opened and read all texts and mails, it stayed regardless if the screen was on or off, it even stayed when I turned the phone off(!) and I only managed to put it out by pulling the battery - however it went back on immediately after replacing the battery. I turned off all notifications in settings, made sure I have plenty of free memory and card space etc. etc. The only thing I managed to do was to make it dim blue instead of bright blue after shutting down and booting up again. Now it lurks in the darkness, occasionally flashing, but mostly just glowing in blue.
The only ideas that I have left:
- some app update brought an unsolicited feature, but how to check it w/o wiping up everything? and how the hell does it stay lit after turning off the phone anyway?
- something went bad when charging - but these phones are supposed to have some protections from overcharging, so it shouldn't be a problem if it stays connected at 100%, right? besides, the phone works perfectly normal otherwise.
- I'm using an s-view cover, maybe it has something to do with it? I tried removing it to no avail - but maybe the magnets embedded in the cover contributed over time to the now-observed led malfunction?
@AlexandreT - do you use S-view? from what I understand, your problem also occurred after charging - did the phone stay on charger for long, eg. overnight? maybe you managed to solve the problem since?

I don't use S-view. The problem occurred after charging overnight. It was solved by replacing the whole motherboard under warranty.
Sorry for the late answer.
Just use led xposed modules to switch it off

Hahaha. You're replying after three years ????
I have a small Problem since yesterday. After charging is my Notification LED always Green, when my Display is on.
When Display off, charging Shows Red LED. WhattsApp and other notifications - Blue, as normal.
But when the Display is on, Shows it only Green. Charging, notifies - Stable green!
What i tried: customs, Stock Rom, Root +/-, 1 hour without battery. Result : 0
Samsung Service said without testing - Knox 0x1. No Warranty. Only Motherboard replace = 230 €....
Who had same issue and maybe can help?
I think that you don't need a motherboard replace just because the LED is having a strange behavior
Have you tried a factory reset?

Thanks, but it doesn't work. I've tried everything. But my LED is always On, wenn the display is On.
Noticed that my s7 notification led is flashing red. I can't turn it off. Cleared all background apps and it still flashes. Battery is 80% so can't be that.
In settings I've even turned off led notification .
Any ideas ?

Had the same issue. Today I had an update to elephone_s7_97_20170218 OTA (more than one gigagyte). The led can be configured to different colors on charging and notifications.
Yeah I get that blinking thing. Still to uograde.
I'm rooted and I think I can't flash the upgrade via twrp.
