How can I turn off the light? - General Questions and Answers

Hi
The light of my imate jamin is continuously on. Normally, this light blinks only when blue tooth is on but now it is no more blue it is yellow just like the one above it. Now out of two lights, one is continuously on and one blinks at intervals. I have refreshed my phone twice but to no use (and suffered the loss of all my contacts etc!). The blue tooth light is still on.
There's one more problem: the programmes which I installed on my phone and removed are still in the list of installed programmes. I have removed them through 'add and remove' built-in programme and then I deleted them from the storage card as well but they are still there in the list. Please help.
regards,

I would backup data and hardreset

It sounds like to me ur still on wm5 yes? This was a problem with winmo 5 in that apps did not always properly uninstall properly lol.
Have you thought about flashing to latest 6.1? Vincents roms are awesome and you will not believe the speed on your jamin compared to wm5!!!
It may also sort out you other issues.......

My Phone Is GOING CRAZY HELP!!

So after updating to a couple WM6 ROMS and being happy, my phone starts to act weird, my screen starts to turn white at random times and i have to keep the keyboard slid out slightly to keep the screen from going white. Then after a while it changes again, and now my screen always goes white until i slide the keyboard in and out a couple of times and then slide it back in, but it will only stay normal for a little and my screen will go white again. In hopes to fix this i switched back to my official T-Mobile 2.26 ROM but i am still having the same problem. Can someone please help me fix this, my phone is almost at the brink of not working and i would have to wait about half a year before i can get a new one. Any help will be appreciated.
are you overclocking at all when you are experiencing the problem???
I have heard that overclocking to too high of a speed will cause the phone to go to a white screen..
just a thought
also, if you could, please list all third party apps and the current ROM you are running
.:Nstefanelli:.
Well i was overclocking to 260 using battery status, but i dont do that anymore,i am currently running the T-Mobile 2.26 official ROM, and i have these programs installed:
Wm5torage
Fizz Weather 2
TCPMP 0.81
Pocketdict
If you need some more info you can look at my signature too.

how do u do that ?
killerkhatiby009, you can check if it is a hardware problem by performing a remote control (PC controlling PPC, google for it) and start messing with your phone, see if the PC gives you the same problem.
IF the PC gives a good reading (e.g. no white screen) while the PPC gives you a white face, then it is probably the screen problem (not sure what).
IF both the PC and PPC gives you the white face, it is then either software error (hopefully so), OR internal harware error (e.g you've burned your microprocessor?).
Ok thanks for the help, ill go and try that ppc remote controll thing and report back.
Ok after testing it the PC comes up fine while the Pocket PC comes up white.

Sounds like a hardware problem to me, which may be a result of your constant overclocking. It may also be due to a bad switch in the keyboard slider.
You might want to contact your provider and see if the phone is still under warranty and/or if you can get a replacement.
Well my phone is no longer under warrenty, does anyone know of a way to fix my phone or get a replacement?
Hi,
Can someone tell me how to upgrade my IPL please ?
found my answer. Thanks anyway
I have the EXACT same problem
Ignore my signature - I downgraded back to the latest stock T-Mobile ROM. I see the same problem no matter what ROM I am running.
It is EXACTLY the same as you describe here. I can usually make it stop by pressing the sides together (holding the screen and keyboard slider tighly closed). Once it stops if I set it down and don't touch it it will work fine.
Also when I reboot the splash screen never has the problem - the problem starts as soon as WM boots.
So what did you have to do? Buy a new one? Or were you able to get service or an exchange?
It seems to be the mechanics of the display connector that are causing this. I looked in the service manual and it shows a stiff flat flex-cable connecting the keyboard to the screen, and it seems to me that this cable is the problem - either it is damaged or it is not fully seated on one end or the other.
I considered trying to dissassemble it and clean/reset connecters - for about a nanosecond. But it looks way too fragile and full of hidden little plastic hooks that will break off if you don't release each one in exactly the right way and then it will never go back together again.

blank screen when battery low

when battery in low,i tried in doing certain tasks like watching video in tcpmp or wmp...sending file via bluetooth. then, my xda ii screen will become blank slowly and light off. i could not do anything but just take out the battery and put in again to reset.
i have had this problem since i flash those newer wm5 rom like c_shekhar and llbasha version wan. i never have this problem with older wan.
anyone knows what happen? or who having same problem with me?
anybody answering me...thx

Disable the bluetooth light

Is there a reg hack to turn off the blue bluetooth light? I hate having 2 flashing lights on all the time (One blue and one green).
Thanks
I have installed Microsoft voice command 6.1 french and then the blue light turned off!
it is expensive to turn a light off but it works
(by the way if any body knows how to turn it one I'll be pleased to know...)

I will be please to be able to turn the green flashing light off too. I know that the flashing light indicates that the phone is on, but still annoying specially at night (please do not tell me to turn the TC upsidedown)
LOL, that's funny... Any way there has to be a way to turn them both off
There is a way. You know how to do a soft reset - you put a small thing in the reset hole.
If you want to disable the lights, do the same thing, but instead of putting a small thing in the reset hole, you put it on the light. You need to press really really hard... ;-)
However, there is no way to get them turned on again...

Thanks for that awsome fix...lol however, I would like a little less violent solution....
This could be done in some devices with Tweaks2k2 .NET (http://www.tweaks2k2.com/portal/staticpages/index.php?page=20050224182009983). I don't know if this could work for Polaris too.

No I have this program, tried this first. I doesn't work.
Anyone have an answer?
Try this
Try this one
It works great on my TC. It's written for the Kaiser but also works on the TC. I've turned off all my LED's except when I've missed a sms or call. It's in Dutch but the interface is pretty clear so I don't think you'll have any problem controlling it. If so let me know.
The only downside with this program is that you can't control the WLAN LED. If you turn off the Phone LED (green flickering) the WLAN LED also gets turned off. Another thing is that the orange LED doesn't light up anymore when you charge your device. Hopefully someone will write a similar program especially designed for the TC. But apart from that it's a neat little program.
Cheers.
Found a fix! This program is awsome. It is for the Tilt, but works great on my TC!
Thanks for this.
It seems to be written for the Kaiser and says that its freeware as it installs.
Seems to work fine on my Orbit2.
I've now turned off both my lights as default - they should illuminate if I miss a call / get mail etc.
I do some work with User Interfaces for avionics.
Cardinal rule - "flashing lights are an exception, not default mode of operation".
ALL flashing lights
Thanks for this, works a treat on my Touch Cruise / Orbit 2
Maybe this link deserves its own post... took a while to find it

Hmm! That explains why my BlueTooth LED stopped working - I recently installed M$ VC too... Weird.
Anyhow - while you've found a solution to turning off you LEDs, I thought I'd suggest another thing worth looking at for controlling them, for future reference - nueLED... It lets you redirect different LEDs. Still won't turn my BlueTooth LED back on though!

TomTom logo on the today screen

Hello people,
For the first time ever I bought a smartphone and the choice fell on the TC. Now I have it for a few days and I'm really happy with it. I installed TT 6.030 and it's working like a charm.
However, on the Today screen the TomTom logo (and text) has white pixels around it, it's clearly made for a light background. However I like dark backgrounds (like the default) so it's kinda bothering me. I searched the forums and tried Google, but I can't find how to change the logo. Copying the logo to my pc, editing it and setting it back for instance. Or maybe TomTom comes with 2 logo's so that I can pick another version.
Is this possible? If so, how and otherwise why not?
Thanks
ISTR experiencing the same thing with the version of TomTom I had previously bought. However, the version that comes with the cruise on the CD is slightly different and displayed properly on the homescreen. You can still use your existing maps with it.
Indeed, you should install version 6.032.

notification light? Any hacks?

So was wondering 1) what that light was called on the left side of the ear piece that lights up orange when charging, green when charged, and flashes green when you have a notification and 2) if there are any hacks to make it do different things...?
I tried searching for serivce light and notification light, but didnt come up with anything.
TIA
It would be called a power led or status led. You can change the notification settings but I don't know of anything else.
I was wondering the same thing. I am going to try nueled that used on my tilt a long time ago.
http://freewareppc.com/utilities/nueled.shtml
we'll see what happens.
I think it will work as that hack is supposed to work with any htc phone that uses AllLEDManager to control LEDs and our rhodiums do in fact use allLedManager. Im gonna give it a try as well. See what happens.
K it works... Unfortuneately, our LED on the phone near the ear piece is only green or orange from what I can see. For example, we dont have a bluetooth light that lights up when connected to bluetooth.
What I've been scouring XDA and the rest of the web for is how to turn the Wireless Network Status function of that LED on... I've searched & posted here and a couple of other forums with no luck. Really, that's the only thing I miss that my hTC Kaiser and most of my previous other devices had... ?
I hate having to wake my device up just to see if it (a) is even on (device is totally dark in standby), and (b) am I still in range for a signal *blinking green or solid red/orange*.
I've even gone through the registries of both my Rhodium and my Kaiser to see if there are any differences between the LED entries I could find... if anything, the Rhodium has a few entries in it that the Kaiser doesn't. *heh*
I have a TP2 with Verizon's 6.5 upgrade... nueLED didn't do squat for me... Anyone have any tips?

Disregard...nueLED doesn't work, but I figured how to change the settings in the registry.
