    I’d kill for a notification LED again…

    I’ve been working on notifications the last few days and noticed I still had some legacy code there to set the notification LED orange. Broke my heart to remove it…

        I’m sure they still exist, and I know there are apps that can emulate one on an AMOLED display.

        Mine does, but then it also has a built-in thermal imaging camera, which is definitely not normal.

        Recently shot myself in the foot after buying a flagship sony, only to find they do not support bootloader unlock specifically on the US variant. It feels like a conspiracy, since it is practically the same hardware and software otherwise.

        Still a great phone but I literally purchased it specifically because I thought it had all of these features and an unlockable bootloader

          For me the always on display on the pixel works well for this purpose. I like the little icons that show up when you have a notification, and I can just glance over to see what app the notification is coming from
