Wow ,thanks for the help repeating what was already posted. What were looking for at this point is how to turn it off.

I know things get frustrating, but he's only attempting to help. But I know how to turn it off.

Go into settings, go into about about phone, legal information. Now swear and cuss at the phone as loud as you can. At this point remove the phone from any protective case and then stomp on it.

Baahahahaahahaha. Sorry.. I couldn't resist.

I hope you guys get this resolved with yahoo. My wife's maxx does the same thing.

The purple led also flashes when you stop syncing with the yahoo server, and mine started flashing when I started using Smart Actions. Battery Extender stops background data when the screen is is off. This triggers the yahoo mail flashing led when the screen is off and then goes away when you to check to see what it is because now it's syncing again because that is how the smart actions works

maiachris,

how did you change th setting in your yahoo mail app?? I'm trying to do it and Idon't see any option as far as notification settings and LED lights. What's there just mentions Vibrat and Show in Status Bar, both of which i have unchecked. I'm still getting the Purple light.

Just wanted to note and say mine blinks purple and has the latest update. Was driving me crazy until I found this thread.
The worst was not knowing why it was blinking purple. LOL
I would rather it not sync until I open the app. Dunno how to change that though. Already have everything turned off in that app for notifications, etc...

When you open the Yahoo! mail app, press the Menu button and choose Options. One at a time, press Account Settings for each email address you have. Next choose Notification Settings, then press Choose Sound, then pick No Sound and press Done. This seems to have worked for me, but make sure to do it for each account installed.

Yep. Did all that and went back to confirm. LOL
It seems that it has email push but no way to control it.
It only blinks when the phone screen is off/locked. weird.

Mine is put out by viewing my Yahoo inbox. I have the Yahoo mail app. I had an update last week, but the purple light first appeared over the weekend.

I had the same issue and was able to track down the culprit on my S7. It was the Gmail app. Even though I thought I had gone into system settings to block all notifications from it, I had to go into the app itself and turn off the notifications. Has not blinked since.
