change color of LEDs?

Hi guys,
is it possible to change the color of the LEDs?
My intention: Normally the LED glows green, when I missed a call or something like that it glows orange and when the accu is nearly empty it glows dark red.
Often I see the green LED in the corner of my eye and think it's orange - although I know that it's not.
So: Is it possible to change the color of the normal alarm LED into dark red? I tried no2chem_nueLED but it doesn't show the dark red LED.. :-/
Thanks in advance!

sorry to hijack the thread but is there a way to stop the led flashing all the time? the led next to the internet explorer button is constantly flashing green

hey,
Yeah I've been trying to figure out if there's a way as well. The same thing happens to me all the time. Whenever I see the green light from the corner of my eye I think it's orange too .
Anyone willing to shed some light on this?
@HungryHippo
The green lights indicate that your phone is currently connected to the Phone Network... it doesn't flash when you're out of ranch.. I don't know how to turn it off other than putting your phone in Flight Mode..

Hi there...
I think this thread is in the wrong place but ill still help
Use a regestry editor to change the leds
Disable flashing service LEDs
[HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\AllLEDMgr]
By doing this It WILL dissable the phone from vibrating!
As for changing the LED's colour I dont know how to but I will have a look!
Use the wiki as it is your friend!

How do you get the thing to be ON? The Green light used to be on when on charge......sadly I haven't seen the light ON now for the last 2 weeks despite it being on charge and does charge too?
Do I need to use the same registry hack to get the light to come ON?

Weird ... the same thing happens to me, too! I thought it was my aging eyes ... though I KNOW I'm not color-blind. But yes, when seen with only peripheral vision, it often appears to be the amber color. Very strange perceptual event here.

u could try using the nueled software in the dev and hacking forum not sure if it works like it should tried it once but u can always try it

yeh, nueLED has your best options...here's the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=371391

The reason your peripheral vision sees a different colour is that the LED isn't actually one LED - it's two. Probably red and yellow. This allows it to display
3 different colours, ie.
R = Red
Y = Yellow
R+Y = Green.
The R+Y is probably created by high-speed alternating between red and yellow. Your peripheral vision detects one colour only, probably because there are far less colour receptors at the side of your visual cortex than near the centre and they only register the one colour. As soon as you look directly at it, more rods/cones come into play and your brain then interprets what it's seeing as the blended colour, green.
The above isn't exactly correct, but it's close enough so you get the idea....

Amber
Hi!
I have another problem/request. Since I am not with my phone all the time I would like the Amber LED to flash if I have a missed call for indefinite time (until I check the calls) and not only for a limited period (and then changing back to green). It was already implemented in TNT6.0 SE ROM.
Is there only a question of some registry change (and which)?

If you go to settings>sounds&notifications>notifications>Phone:missed calls
You can change the Flash Light For value to NO LIMIT. Default is 15 mins.
Hope this helps
Dave

Sure it helps.
Thanks a lot.

Especially since yellow+blue=green.

hmm
yeah... nueLED doesn't work on my hermes. It doesn't give me the address of the red LED...

But the LED light does not light up AT ALL?
Has the LED blown?.....Didn't think thta was possible since its not a Bulb?

[Q] Does the Desire Z/G2 have a Green LED ?

Hey xda
I've had my Desire Z for about two months now and damn its the best phone i've ever had ! However i noticed something the other night which i would like to ask you about.
I have no green led that blinks every 3 seconds or so at the top where the speaker is. Shouldn't there be that when the phone is having reception ? I noticed this when i was charging my phone.. The older HTC's i've had usually glows orange when charging, but changing to green when its done charging.. But mine just turns off the orange led so theres no led litten up at all
Is this normal for the Desire Z or what does your DZ do ?

I have a G2, the charging LED goes from orange to green when it is above 80% (I think), but it isn't used at all outside of charging.

the green LED blinks when you have messages waiting or emails etc. as well as full charge indicator.
It really depends on how you've set your notifications up.

Is there somewhere i can change if the Green LED should be on or not ? Or maybe test it .. Because i never see this Green LED on.. When charging is done the orange led just turns off and no led is litten.. The same goes for when theres reception and i have a message.. The Green LED is not blinking at all

definitely sounds faulty to me. The only app I have ever heard rave reviews about is LEDme. Give that a try to configure the notification blinking. If that doesn't work, dig out your receipt for a return.
EDIT...... As Steviewevie has stated... App is called LED Me Know. My mistake.

The LED doesn't blink for notification unless you use an app (e.g. Led Me Know) or an app that does that for you.
In the stock DZ ROM, the trackpad itself blinks when you get a message, if that setting is switched on, though the blinking is very slow - e.g. every 10 seconds or so.
The LED in the speaker grille should turn green when the battery is fully charged. But when the phone is new there is a "learning" process for the ROM/battery, so that might be why you are not seeing it yet.
If you install the "Led Me Know" app (from the Market), there is a function in there to test out the notifications, so you could set it to use green and then test it from within the app, just to make sure your LED shows green ok.

The free app "Missed Call for Android 2.X" (there is another version that is just for Android 1.6) works well to change the LED notifications as well as vibrate patterns. I just tried it, and it works for flashing the green LED for a SMS notification.

Or if you only want to test it, download "covedesign dev"

Thanks for all the help guys .. I tried various of your mentioned apps and none of them seems to be able to make my green led glow.. Just wondering if i want a spare or not, since it just a rather small fault.. Do you think they will replace it ? is it enough faulty for them to fix it ?

If its supposed to have a green LED, and the green LED is broken, then I think its justification for a replacement.
Whether it bugs you enough to replace it, that's your decision. The only time I've seen it light up (without changing the settings with the Missed Call app) is when charging is done. So it really doesn't have much use, anyway.

Not rooted anymore, as i prepared my device for return.. But i tried it before, when i was rooted, and i was not able to get my green led to lit up with that program.. So i guess its faulty

[Q] Why no LED blinks when battery is dying?

Hi there, I am currently running Cyanogenmod 7.0.3 on my HTC Desire Z and having some issues with the notification led in the speaker:
Why, when battery is nearly flat (under 10%) no LED blinks and if I receive a text the green one keeps blinking unless I reboot the device?
I would like to have the amber LED blinking when battery is dying. I already tried LED ME KNOW but works for a while than stops especially after a reboot.
Thanks in advance.

The blinking LED under 10% is just going to happen. Not sure how you'd change it, as the function is built into the ROM.
The trackpad should still pulse properly when you receive a message though.

Thanks for your reply martonikaj, anyway the speaker led seems to go crazy when battery goes under 10%!
Now, I received a text 15 minutes ago, read but the green light still blinks.
I simply would like to have the amber (or a red) Led blinking to remind me, when I'm not using the phone, that I have to recharge it!
Anyone is experiencing the same issue as me?
EDIT: Seems that someone else has the same problem here, with no answer either:
http: //code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=3260

mine's the same way. I have a consistent green speaker LED blinking under 10%.
I just never really get under 10% that often so it doesn't really bug me.

I realize that the green led doesn't blink to advise you that your battery is nearly dead but simply because, after reading a text or other notification, the device cannot "get rid" of the green light. In fact if you reboot the phone it goes away and doesn't show up unless you receive another notification.

Well its not that it cant get rid of it, its that the system tells it to blink the LED lower than 10%, and that's overlapped by the fact that the notification also blinks the LED green. So after the notification LED pulse is gone, it just continues because the system picks up where the notification left off.
Either way, yes, its a bug.

Not in my case. If I don't receive any notification the green LED doesn't blink, even under 10%.

You are 100% right! As far as I know it hasn't been solved yet. CM 7.1 RC still have this problem.

Constant flashing red led problem

I have a red led flashing every half second. Only happens when it's plug in and it seems it is not charging the battery also. The battery indicator on status bar is blinking also. Anyone know what this is?
Edit:
NM restart fixed it =p

LED notification mod bling while charge

Hey i tryed the newst cm 10 jb rom and found out that the noti led blinks green while chargine and u get a msg. i prefer another rom but i really want that feature.
is there a stand alone mod that brings my led to blink whiel its charge?

Almost all HTC phone's comes with two colors LED only. Thus, white is not possible even with mod.

i dont want a white led....
when the phone is charging. the led stays on red(or green when full) and dont care if i got a message.
with the new cm 10 rom, the led blinks while charging if i get a msg

Looks like whiel == while, but i presumed whiel == white. That's what answering..
There is an app at play store called "Light Flow - LED Control", you may try it and see whether it suit your requirements or not.
