Notifications

Since the Z won't have a notification LED (or have I missed anything here) and no touchable buttons will there be any way of knowing whether a notification is there without waking the device? For example making the screen light every minute or something?

Do you have source for that? Because I just find evidence for the ZL having a notification LED

Perhaps that feature is way too common on all android phones to be mentioned anymore.

 

[juDGEY2k10]

Are you sure this is a notification led? I've an xperia s and that led only turn on when charger is plugged-in and it switch from red (in charge) to green (full charge). So I think this is not a notification led but I hope it is because it's very important for me

I don't have Xperia S I only had up to Xperia Pro which is a 2011 device. But even if it only lights up on charging that's still called a notification led because it notifies you of your charging status. Although I can't confirm if it works also on messages, calls, emails etc. Your best bet is asking someone who has access to the device already.

And yeah... I'm not sure about this but I think I remember sometime in the past that there was a notification light issue on the ICS update of some Xperia devices. Perhaps you're encountering that issue now.


Edit:

Here's a link of the said bug.

Now.. the question in.. goes LightFlow or similar aps for LED notification work well?
And also.. I've read it's not multicolored.. I can leave with that. OneX was like that.

It is multicoloured - you could see at least two colours on various Xperia Z videos on youtube.

The One X has 2 colours also, but is not RGB... anyway I've read elsewhere that it is RBG, so I'm happy.

Xperia S and T both had multicoloured LEDs, why on earth would Sony take a step back and not give the Z the same?
