So I just updated my Essential to 8.1 Oreo. I am currently with Koodo Mobile and UNROOTED.
The notification light does not come on for any notifications or for charging. It does come on if I shut the phone off and charge.
Does anyone else have this problem and/or any suggestions for a fix.
Not a great start for Oreo
Thanks in advance as always
The notification light is turned OFF by default in Oreo, at least for charging.
Go in to settings--> Apps & notifications--> Notifications, and make sure the setting is turned on.
Hope this helps.

Previously on another firmware aside I9000XWJG5, there was this battery Notification displayed when the phone runs low. And also when the phone is fully charged.
Now since changing to I9000XWJG5, those above mention notifications are gone.
I was wondering, is there any way to enable them back?
Gone thru settings but no where to be found that enables them back.
Thanks in advance..
So I have this problem for about weeks now, whenever i turned on my flash light, about 5 minutes later it turned off automatically, so i'm thinking it has to be a settings for flash light timeout, but I tried to look in the setting app, plus gravitybox mm, but I couldn't find it. Or maybe i did find it but i didn't noticed it, i don't know, can anyone help me with this?
Thank you
I am running the Oreo beta and none of my LED notifications are working. Not for messenger or allo. Also the charging light does not work. Is this a known bug on Oreo?
Speaking of notifications, anyone know why ambient display won't turn on when I get a new SMS when I'm using Textra, but it will do so when I'm using Google Messenger?

LEDs working fine here on Oreo.
That is strange, not working at all for me. I'm on T-Mobile what carrier are you on?

On TMo. It is working. Check whether LightFlow has the right permissions...
I'm in the same boat. Oreo beta broke my LED notifications and my Bluetooth. Every once in awhile the red charging LED will come if I plug the phone in and the battery is really low, but for the most part I get nothing. I've installed lightflow and even tried a factory reset with no luck.

Did you check the settings, because they are disabled by default. Oreo changes the way that notifications are handled, so defaults kick-in.
Working fine for me, including charge indicator.

I'm in the same situation (one plus 3) have you found a solution?
Hi, I have a Lex727 with eui s21 stock and when a notification arrive the screen don't turn on, I have to unlock with the fingerprint sensor to see the notification.
It any way to change that?
Hmm. Never heard of that problem. I'm on 20s. Maybe try some things from this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-pro3/how-to/guide-how-to-past-notification-issue-eui-t3497530
You ought to switch to a custom ROM. eUI notifications are just royally screwed up in general.

I already tried everything they say on that link and the notifications arrive but I have to turn on the screen to see them. I know that Android 6 does not bring ambient display but I thought that I could see the notifications without having to unlock the screen, my previous phone has Android 8 so I have to get used to this previous version.
Thanks for your help!!
Has anyone else experienced sporadic notifications since updating to 8.1? Unrooted, and ever since the update, my notifications will only vibrate when the screen is off, but will go audible if the screens on.... or ill get a few hours of normal functionality, then back to whatever it wants to do... Ill get delayed text notifications or even doubling them up. Ive never had this issue before. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated

I have the same issue. Orea 8.1 unrooted.
Have you tried removing the apps that need immediate notifications from battery optimization? Oreo is more aggressive stopping the background activity of apps than Nougat was. it's an intentional battery saving feature.

I've noticed this too, and literally just came on XDA to post this same question!!
It seems to take away notification sounds for most apps until I restart the phone. Based on the timing, maybe it has to do with going into a deeper sleep mode or something. Seems more like a glitch than a feature to me, since the notifications don't come back until I restart.
I'll try the battery optimization thing mentioned above, but I don't want WhatsApp draining my battery.

Good tip, Thanks. I was unaware they automatically optimized the apps for battery in the update. what a pain in the a$$. Ive changed the setting for messenger and telegram, Ill report back if i see an improvement.
Hmmm. I changed my battery optimization do exclude Google Voice and Android Messages... it worked for a small amount of time, now I just get vibration, but no sound for notifications.
Oreo 8.1 release.

I was using Nova Launcher when I had this issue. I switched to the default launcher and haven't had the issue since.
