I'm on the latest Marshmallow (v6.0.1) for the Xperia Z3 (D6603) and the only thing I don't like about it are the LED notifications. When I get an email, text etc the tiny little led flashes limply about once every 3 seconds so you have to stare at it for a while to see if you have a message. If it flashed on and off once or twice per second you could glance at it and find out; as it is you might as well just press the power button and look (and wake it up).
Additionally, pressing the power button and discovering there's a notification seems to stop the LED flashing (until the next message turns up) even though you've not read the message. IE the notification might just say "1 email" but not display who sent it, the subject etc, but as far as the notification system is concerned you've just waved the LED flashing away.
I've gone through the settings a few times and looked at 1) notifications generally, 2) permissions per app, 3) the apps themselves but there don't seem to be any obvious settings to govern this behaviour. I'm not desperate to root my phone or buy apps which drain the battery etc; i'm just wondering if there's some option somewhere to make the notifications a little more persistent and obvious.
