Is it possible to personalize the light in Z2?

[prodigy]

Hi everybody. I'm wondering if I can personalize the light in Z2 so that for example( red for missed calls- blue for missed SMS- green for missed whatsapp message- orange for incomming call.......etc. Is possible or should I install another application for this.

Thanks a lot.

If you use 3rd party apps,they have their own notification system. For example,facebook messenger has kind of green (sorry, I am not that good with colours  ), yahoo mail has purple etc.

Thanks alexdon. So I don't have to customize the light , cause it's not possible or possible.

As far as I know it is possible to change the lights using 3rd party apps, but the might also have some default setting that makes the color differ from each other (like alexdon says). 

Best regards,

Thanks to alexdon and Samuel. I've installed light manager and the light works fine.

Thanks again.:smileyhappy:

Sounds great! Good luck with your phone and please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with.

Thank you Samuel. I've got something to say, but I don't know where to post it here or somewhere else in the forum. This is because the thing that I'm going to talk about is related to the heat comming from the phone while using the camera for only 2 or 3 minutes. So should I post here or somewhere else in the forum. Thanks for your patience.

Depends on what camera settings are. Using effects, color filters, background defocus, Ar Effect it is completly normal. Using normal Auto or manual mode You should be able to catch some photos without the device getting extremly hot. In some conditions like egypt, hot day sea side, even normal mode can be closed after few shots due to overall device temperature and built-in sensors, normally you should be able to take bout 30 - 60 shots with flash without closing camera app for heating alert. The best is to keep the device cool before taking shots, backpack in warm day, shadow while on the beach etc. In 4K mode, the device warms up very fast, so we re limited to few minutes of video only, 3 - 6 min of 4K depanding on conditions.

Whatsapp has settings in the app to change the notification light color. I have mine set to blue so i can just glance over at my phone and know if its whatsapp. Very useful, would be great if sony gave us proper control over the light color though.

Xperia lights are designed by category.
Charging - 5-13% - RED
Charging - 13-89% - Orange
Charging 90-100% - Green

Blinking:
Facebook alert or message - Blue
MMS/SMS - White
Gmail - Orange
Missed call - Green

That's fine to me, my last moto had just dual LED so it blinked green on every notification and orange just charging 😜
