Flashing LED - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

Hi,
My XDA LED flashes green constantly when the telephone is switched on (I'm sure this in normal operation); I would guess that it flashes once every 5 seconds or so.
This morning I missed a telephone call and now the LED is flashing green, but at an increased rate - probably once every 3 seconds. I assumed that this indicates a missed call and went and cleared the missed call, checked for a new SMS and even email and my calendar; no notifications of any kind but the new flash rate is still there.
Also, is it possible to change the colour of the LED programatically when a call is missed etc (as it changes to orange when charging)? I have the settings such that a missed call, new email, SMS, etc will flash the LED.
Does anyone know what this means?
Thanks,

dont softreset make it go back to normal ?
my led flash every 5 sec
and when it's charging it's orange all the time

Mine flashers red when i have missed a call,
I got it by doing a RS upgrade and OS opgrade so not sure which on did it.

The change of LED from Green to RED for a missed call, SMS etc. is a user defined function. Go Start/Settings/Personal/Sounds & Notifications/Notifications and then scroll through the available items to configure in the 1.Select an Event scroll list.
You can set if you want the LED to blink (will auto change to RED) and for how long after the event that triggers it.

You're talking about the XDA2? The XDA might be different. Just a suggestion.

You can choose whether to flash the LED for a missed call on the XDA I as ednap has indicated.

I am not sure about the LED color change in XDA1 maybe on XDA2.

Change green light notification!

Is it possible to make the green led light blink faster if there's a missed call or a message? 'Cause it sucks to have to turn the phone on to see if there's any missed call.
cant you make the green light red like you can when you get a sms ?
Excellent

Spot on Bro.
Start - Settings - Sounds & Notifications - Notifications
Select an event - Check Flash light for - Pick your duration you want the Red light to blink.
cant recall if that also works for xda1's though

Need a Notification Tweak for ROM 3.12

Need a Notification Tweak for DCD ROM 3.12...
I am very happy to find that the ROM 3.12 makes the led on my VZW-6800 flash amber when I get a new text or missed call. Normal operation it is flashing green at all times. Beforehand I was going to post will this work on our PDA model:
http://www.modaco.com/index.php?automodule=downloads&showfile=2400
Well I have enough of what I need from the led change with the ROM so part of that above is not needed. However there is one function I do miss that Kaiser Notifications tweak provides which all cell phones do...
If a called is missed, text received but not answered/reviewed, etc. etc. it will continue to beep similar to what a cell phone does and slowly expand beeping time out, for example beeps in 5 min, then beep in 10, then 30, 45, 60 then stop. This is so helpful because my PDA my be on my desk out of sight and I miss the initial call/text when it first arrived.
Is there a tweak for the HTC Mogul that can beep and continue to beep a notification in intervals after a missed call, text, message, etc.????
Someone please answer...thx!
i may be mistaken, but i believe it flashes indefinitely, until maybe a soft reset or something. i have the LED Killer cab from stroths that turns off that annoying green LED connection flashing (but no other LEDs, which is great), so the orange flashing is more noticeable. your device should flash orange every 4-5 seconds until you acknowledge the missed call or text. also, S2U2 notifies you of a missed call or text.
heres stroths cab incase you wanted it.
Thx for the info...with the rom 3.12 it flashes green until I acknowledge the message then goes back to the flashing green....
Now, I still need an tweak to the original question is there a way to make the phone beep in intervals when I miss a call, text, etc....???
Thx

[Q] Color of notification led?

Hi there,
Has any of you have any luck changing the color (and/or blinking behavior) of the notification led (e.g. when an sms is received)?
On my CM7'ed Desire I had full control - e.g. from Go SMS - but with this Desire X I'm stuck with the default green blinking.
I just rooted and flashed Elegancia on today, hoping that would put me (or the apps, actually) in control, but no...
BR,
Egholm
I believe there are apps that will let you change your LED on your phone.
Sent from my GSM Galaxy Nexus
Only two colors on Desire X if I remember correctly.
Why would you want to change the colour. Maybe i am missing something .:cyclops:Green seems ok and orange when charging is also ok.
hi
Missed call or SMS -LED flashes only 5min.This is the problem.
ORA1: It's annoying that when I leave the phone at home, and a notification-event occurs that I don't hear, I cannot see from the LED which event happened (remember I didn't hear, I just glance at the phone every and so often when I pass it). Then it's super nice to be able to see if it is a missed call, an SMS, an email, and so and so forth.
Also, the standard blinking behavior - blinking briefly every 1-1.5 seconds - is silly. It requires starring at the phone for a second to judge if an event is there. A constant LED is much nicer.
That's why
Klapo, yeah, but mixing the red with the green, you get an orange So, three colors, and if I could control the blinking, that's infinite combinations ;P
Obj261, after trying different apps, I stumbled over "Light Flow 3.5.2 (lite)". Its the only one that I've seen being able to control the LED succesfully. But obviously I'm too stupid to make it work (consistently) beyond the "testing capabilities" from within the app
I hoped that others have had this need, as well :/
I would just want to know if it's RGB or just green/orange.
I would love to control it via LightFlow but the hardware must support it first.
katman4, it's only green, orange and red.
(But still I haven't found the magic setting in lightflow that makes it work consistently, so be aware of that)
Now someone can design an app that when you have a notification of any sort the whole screen flashes in a colour.
Cant be too difficult for one of the boffins to design:good::good::good::good::victory::victory:

[Q] No LED notification for new e-mail

When i receive a new e-mail message the LED doesn't get lit up. It's a hotmail.com account.
The only time i ever see the LED being lit up is when it's charging.

In Settings > Display is "Notification light" unchecked? If it is, check it, that will enable the notification light to flash from different alerts rather than just be tied to the batter. When I get an email (hotmail as well) it flashes white.

It was..
But now it seems to work, or then i missed it because the LED is so weak and it flashes with such a long interval. I expected it to be on constantly.

Hi, I am also facing an issue of the same kind. I cannot see any other color of the LED except for red when the battery is low. After charging is completed, the green LED should be lit, but there is actually a very dim orange light that is noticed only in the dark. The same for the calls or other notifications. I don't even remember if going to recovery or fastboot mode will trigger the blue LED but nothing is displayed anyhow.
Does somebody have any idea how to restore the LED to "normal"? This has happened after I installed the X829 rom on my X820. Since that time, looks like no other color is present except red.
Any advice is welcome.
