I gotta say, sometimes I miss my fully customized LED on my blackberry back in the day. It could be in the bottom of a gym bag and I’d still know if I missed a Google Talk message (green) or a Facebook alert (dark blue) or an email (light blue), etc etc etc.
I had a Galaxy Nexus with a custom ROM and was able to set the led to any color I wanted per app. It was awesome.
Did it go through multiple colors when you had notifications from different apps at the same time?
Yes, being able to set different colors to show up depending on the app is so cool. Still an option in LineageOS with a section for Notification LED.
My Nexus one did
I had a cool LED on my old Sony which pulsed to the beat of music playing. It also covered the whole of the bottom of the phone and also showed when the phone was upside down. It was well cool.
I don't understand how Blackberry managed to drive itself into the ground like it did. I need a modern BB 9900 ASAP.
Shit management + greed
Still have one on my sony xperia 5 iii (and no notch, micro sd, headphone jack, zoom camera)
