Kaiser Notification was designed to allow the user to reassign or turn off certain notifications,. This is a stand alone app that runs in the background at all times. The benefit to this app is that it’s simple and straightfoward to figure out. The drawbacks to this app is that there is really no customization. Also, this app overwrites any notification settings you have setup in Settings > Sounds & Notifications. Special LED stuff doesn’t work either, like WIFI LED, GPS LED, & Charging LED

nueLED takes a different approach. Instead of running as seperate application, it changes the registry to use it’s notification dll. What does this mean? This means you can use the settings under SOunds & Notifications just like normal, it also means that the battery charging LED still works, along with GPS and WIFI LEDs. The killer part is that you can still reassign LEDs to different colors. So if you want the Signal LED to be Blue, you can reassign it to the Blue LED.

I still use this app the same way I did Kaiser Notifications, all LEDs are off unless there is email/vmail/sms/missed call.

My only complaint is that the “back off” alerts will vibrate (if you have it selected) even when the phone is in silent mode.

Maybe something to consider for the next revision.

I’m getting real tired of the same “green, green, green/blue” blinking lights on the face when there’s nothing happening, it’s so distracting.

Now I just have it flash red if I have a missed call and flash blue if I have a missed message and keep the LEDs off otherwise. Simple.

“LED Alerts – update for Professional/Pocket PC devices

Following up on my post about LED Alerts – Fernando contacted me to remind folks that if the device is a Professional device you can actually tell it to flash the led directly from the OS, under Sounds & Notifications when an email comes in for example.

Thanks Fernando :) ”

To me it read that it would work. I tested it and contacted LED Alerts and it does not. I’ll get a retraction right away. Thanks again!
