Illumination bar

The main reason I got this phone was the illumination bar, however since upgrading to 12.0.A.2.245 earlier today it no longer works when I have a notification. The only way it will constantly blink to alert me to a notification is to turn stamina mode off which halves the battery life of the phone. It will blink once when stamina mode is on but this is of no use to me as I want a visible notification when the screen is off.
Please address this issue in the 4.3 update and revert to the illumination notification of the previous software

Also, as this thread attributes, the notification bar blinks red constantly when the battery is low. So Sony's argument for saving power is mute.

I've installed Illumination Bar , and I am happy with it , it is a good app , you can put any color you want , but still I prefer THE CLASSIC one ... It works with stamina on 

in Wait for the real update . That one which will get us back the Leeds ( 3 of them ).

I want from Sony to take seriously this new update and to repair illumination bar , walkmans stops in Chrome , CAMERA SENSOR which is bad bad bad , the same sensor with good calibration works perfectly ( look at others phones who have Sony sensors ).

PLEASE SONY .! ! !

We want at least our 3 led notification back .!

Thanks to this thread and this forum I'll not update my SP to new 2.245 version. I started with Ericsoon 388 and its led... I choose this phone for its great led (one of less powerconsuming option to notify something). I use Stamina mode almost all time to manage SP greedy power needs.

Sony please reconsider your positions about led during stamina mode.
