Battery Charging Led indicator?

[Shoop]

Is there an led indicator to indicate that the phone is charging?

Apparently not when the phone is off and charging, since there are no lights on mine right now. Will wait and see if a green indicator appears when it's done. I was kind of surprised that the on-screen charging graphic (when the phone is off) doesn't display current battery level.

Nope, no outward indication that it's charging. Turn on the screen to see the status. It's one of the few things I miss from the N1, that and the trackball.

I hope someone comes up with a way to do it, since the phone has the indicator leds.

Lightflow has an option to let you use the charge light

There is a program out there.. wait let me get it for you.. Lightflow. Should do it.

great: ninja'd

edit: did i read somewhere that Lightflow takes over *all* of your notifications? Which means you would have to set them individually in the apps.

Did any indicator appear? I'm on my initial charge and still have no indication if the charge is complete or not. Been charging for some 4 hours (extended battery).

I don't think you'll see an indicator. Just turn it on, what could go wrong?

Light Flow is very nice. It was a great addition to my Gnex

You wont see any indication. I shut my Nexus off last night. Started charging at 10pm. At first there was a quick picture of a battery starting to fill up, then a blank screen for the rest of the night.

By 7am there was no indication that charging was complete.
I had to turn on my phone to see it was back to 100%.

I will install the free Light Flow app and see how that works. Thanks for the info, as I came here with the same question.
