What do the LED lights on wireless chargers usually indicate? Do they show vibration, overheating, or charging status? Is there a standard logic behind the occasional blinking?

Does the LED light changing color (like from red to green) always mean it's fully charged, or is there more to it?
As far as I know, LED lights in wireless charging work on a pretty simple principle. Generally, if the light stays on steadily, it means the device is charging, and if it flickers, it indicates "low power" or "poor contact." My QI standard wireless charger worked exactly like that too—when I placed the phone properly, the LED stayed solid green, but when I moved it slightly, it started flickering.
If I'm not mistaken, some brands also use orange/red lights to signal overheating or flashing to indicate inefficient charging. My Asus PadFone wireless dock worked that way. I know there are no universal standards, but most manufacturers use LEDs in this "if you don't see it, there's a problem" approach.
