Notification LED not working after ICS update

Hi, I noticed that notification LED is not working for Messages, Emails and GMail notification. I remembered it was configurable color LED around the Home button.

Please advice how to resolve the problem?

Hello! Slightly_smiling_Face

I did all that, the test through service menue and re-installing the OS, LED is working just fine (has been on the test before), but still no notifications without extra app. Basically after changing to ICS the option LED notification vanished completely in both mail apps (standard as well as gmx). So, what's the suggestion for that?

In addition I cannot find quite a few other options now, like mass storage connection and also the content of the app saver isn't visible in Windows Explorer anymore, just to name a few... have to use MyPhoneExplorer, which, sorry, really sucks, because it's hard to connect sometimes. Has been a lot easier before. Slightly_frowning_Face Also: How do I edit my SIM contacts within the phone? Before I could in contacts menu, not anymore...

So, can you help with the issues I pointed above?!

Cheers,

Caren

Besides: Overall I like ICS, but it definetaly has flaws, really sloooowwww at opening most apps / routines. I hope, this will be fixed with some near future OS update or such.

Hi,

I'm from india n updated to ics on the day they released, where the led is working fine, but i updated using sony update software not through pc companion i think you guys need to reinstall and check, coz when my frd updated he didn't see the face lock option in the security but when he reinstalled that option came, so i guess reinstalling will solve the issue, where accessing contacts are very slow and video recording also not that good like GB, if you guys want to backup all contacts,apps and sms use wondershare or my phone explorer.

with Regards,

Hi all.

Perhaps Light Flow used to be the best app for accessing our phone's LED.

Unfortunately, after installing ICS, LED became "un-controllable".

Programmers of Light Flow suggested rooting but it’s an option I'd like to avoid.

I run the tests (typed *#*#7378423#*#* etc.) and worked just fine.

Any other suggestions please?

Thanks in advance.

Tasos.

Mine just works fine after the upgrade,

but for folks with the issue there is a temporary fix, Found this app in the play store.

It controls the notfication LED colour for different apps.
