Tilt 2 LED - Just network signal?

Hello,
I just got a touch pro2 lastweek and I am beating my head trying to figure out what the deal is with the status notification LEDs
I see one to the LEFT of the earpiece/speaker that flashes green every few seconds and then just stops - all the flashing stops. I'm thinking the bliking stops when the phone goes to sleep. So i press the power to wake the phone - but the flashing doesn't come back. I was thinking this is the network/signal indicator but doesn't seem that way.
I see another that's to the RIGHT of the earpiece/speaker that doesn't go on at all.
So no way to tell if the phone is on wifi network or if bluetooth is on (without obviously waking the phone up and checking on screen). I'm looking for a way to see status without touching the phone - like my old HTC TyTn (rest in peace!)

It turns red when you charge you're phone.
It turns green when you are fully charged (with the charger still in)
It blinks green when you have a new message/e-mail/missed call.
It blinks red when you're batterie is almost empty.
That are the basics

thanks! that's about what i seemed to have gathered too... what about that fake light like thing to the right of speaker? never lights up?
and no bluetooth/wan notification ten, right?

thats the light sensor for the screen
adjusts brightness depending on how much light is hitting the phone

Below is a description of the LED lights straight from the manual that came with my Tilt2.
* The Notification LED shows a:
Flashing green light when there are new SMS, MMS or email messages, missed calls, or reminders.
Solid green light when the device is connected to the power adapter or a computer and the battery is fully charged.
Solid amber light when the battery is being charged.
Flashing amber light when the remaining battery level reaches below 10%.

That's pretty much exactly it. There is a program floating around that allows you to change the light and customize the reason it flashes, but I think it's just fine the way it is .

it also flashed green then the red light really quick when its overheating :O

thanks for the quick replies folks.
I saw that in the manual too - but i never go by the manuals! i can't count how many times my manuals have been wrong about a particular function.
it's a disappointment since the older Tytn was much more friendly about the notifications. but i'll deal with it.
as far as that being a light sensor - i think it makes sense. I'll try trick it to see what I notice. Then I'm guessing it's the proximity sensor that's around the HTC logo? I think I was in the sun when I saw it but there's some sort of sensor around there. I figured that's the light sensor. perhaps not.
Thanks again!

Strange green battery icon after flashing

Hello,
after a fresh Froyo flash, rooting, rebooted the phone as usual.
Instead of rebooting the mobile powered off then a green animated battery icon appeared on the bottom of the screen. The led began to blink with yellow color.
I've never seen it before....what is it?

Doesn't the phone boot anymore or do you only want to know what the reason for the animated icon and the yellow blinking led is ?
I think you should explain a little more detailed your exact problem.

I want to know the reason of the animated icon and the led blinking.

When your phone is below 5% you get this. When it is loaded to over 5 (or 10, I don't know) you can power up the phone and charge in android selve. It's to protect the phone from failing boot.

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

[Q] When is the battery fully charged?

Hi all.
Right now i look into phone status to see the battery-percent if its 100% or not. But most time i'm charging the phone when its turned off. and then you really cant exactly tell when its charged. yes, you can see the battery-icon when you press the home button. but is it really fully charged when the animation is full?
somewhere i read that its charged when the led turns green. but its already green when the battery-icon is only 3quarters full.
I miss some kind of notification that tells me when the battery is fully charged.

It's 'fully' charged when the status (Settings -> About Phone -> Status) says 100%, the status bar image shows a full battery for less then 100% (between 100 and 80? I think)
There's an article here on the subject: http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/blog/2011/nov/16/android-battery-icon-information
You can install themes that will display the number in the battery image or you can get 1% incremental battery themes, which will be more accurate

ok but this is just for turned on.
but what about when its turned off? because as i said thats the way i mostly charge it.

Dont think you can do anything when the phone is off think your just gona have to charge it when its on... You can see a percentage on the lockscreen while charging the phone when is on

Problem LED and charging

Hello, this morning my diode is green. I restarted the phone and every time it comes a notification or message it is lit or flashing and so it is read after it does not go out. When connected to charger it should glow red until full charge while the color does not change .. can it be the motherboard fault? Please help and best regards
I also noticed that you can not charge the phone when it is off because it immediately starts up. Please answer
