I'm having a bit of trouble. Whenever I get a text message or MMS the green notification LED doesn't turn to amber? Anyone know a way to get it to turn amber when a message is received?
Haha, I wish you were right and we had a problem. No, this is what we call a feature in the Excalibur. The LED doesn't turn amber at all when you receive a message.
The only way you can tell you have received a message is when the phone is charging and there's a steady green or a steady yellow. If a message is received, then it blinks green.
It's really annoying and pisses me off coming from the PPC world but that is just the way it is. If it makes you feel better, Treo 750 users have similar issues and that's a full blown WM5 phone.
There may be programs floating around that can change the LED upon certain triggers but the ones that I have tried don't really work. If anyone has any suggestions, I would love to hear them. We all know that the LED can blink yellow, green or red. It should just be a matter of software to get that going.
I have been using DontForget. It has the ability to turn off your LED and have it blink only when you have and email, or SMS or a missed call. Or, if you like to keep the normal flashing, you can set it to just blink faster when there's a notification. IMO this should be part of the OS. Get it at http://blog.softimage.cz/?page_id=83
I have also been using DF since Day 1 but it is kinda quirky. I would prefer to change the color of the LED rather than turn it off completely and have it flash faster (I mean how the hell do you distinguish the faster flashing from the slower flashing--I can't and I tried).
I've configured my DF to turn off the LED as well, i'm quite happy with it
Sweet! Thanks a lot for the help. It was a life saver
I
sorry my ing., but i have a prob with my notification LED's.
i dont no what i do but i only have the red led notification, when i plug de AC power to charge.
the outher LED's dont do anything.
there is anithing to resolve this???
tks
What other LED's? There is only 1 led. It is red when charging or green when fully charged. Or green blinking for mail or sms or missed call. The little plastic on the other side is your light sensor.
yes, yes. that's my prob.
i only have the red when charging or green when fully charged.
i dont have the green blinking for mail or sms or missed call, etc.
I have the same problem: When charging, no blinking.

Hello
I found the solution to my problem.
after seeing what went wrong and where. I came to the conclusion that for some reason I got the option: flash light for ... = Disable.
all you had to do was go to:
- Settings
- Sounds and notifications
- Notifications
- Event (events with an option for flash light, put enable)
I hope I have helped.
thanks
exactly what I am looking for!
thanx for the tip!

This was already set at my TP2.
But when charging, it doesn't start to blink, it stays burning.
Well, ronh!
Now I have the LED notifications working.
It was enough, but in your case, I think, only just by changing a key in the registry or with a hard reset to see if everything returns to normal.
Indeed. the led charging is prior to led notification. So no notification when charging. Maybe someone knows a reghack for this?
Any hack to change the LED settings?
example:
blinking green to indicate signal coverage
blinking amber for missed calls, message etc.
Pretty useful if we're in a rural area and need to quickly see if we have coverage or not without turning the phone on.

Did anyone find a solution for this problem? My TP2 has no notification LED when it's charging.
It's driving me crazy. I never know if I have Email until I unplug the TP2. My Treo blinked like mad, plugged in or not.
Does anyone know how i can fix this without having to reinstall the Rom again?
i noticed that when i receive and sms with handcent the blue led light does not come on and i constantly have to check if i have any sms's, ive tried every colour under the handcent settings but none make my LED come on when i receive an sms
the LED does work however when charging and getting missed calls.
any suggestions or thoughts please?
thank you
Is there a way to make it so my notification will pulse till I actually see what it is? I often miss text messages and calls for hours because of this. My old Moto Cliq would blink till I actually saw the messages, so I know it's doable. BTW Rooted on Stock T-Mo OTA.
download LEDmeknow so it'll blink for missed calls,texts, etc.
I've been having the same issue lately. The track back pulsing would do its job until I installed bacon bits so I could have the green light on top blink too but I guess 2 lights blinking is being greedy and after a few flashes they stop. Hope urfavoritemazn's suggested app works
Hi there,
I've looked everywhere online but have been unsuccessful so far with finding a solution. Normally my LED light flashes when I receive a missed call, text message, email or a whatsapp message. However since the lollipop update it sometimes flashes even though I have no notifications at all. This constant flashing is some what a nuisance I was wondering how I could fix this.
The light flashes yellow or blue. Yellow is my whatsapp colour and I'm not sure what the blue light is for.
My phone is not rooted and is running the latest android patch
Thanks,
Mine does that also. Don't really know what causes it. I'm running latest chupachups ROM 20h. Maybe someone smart could shed some light on it?
