Hi there,
im looking for a solution to use the LED of my Palm Treo 500v as an alert for notifications, like you have it on BBs as well.
It has a red and a green state. Red blinking is reserved I think when there is no connection, but green blinking f.e. could indicate any kind of missed calls or messages as its not used in any other way.
I looked around but could not find any kind of working solutions.
Is here anyone having a working solution on this or is able to build one?
Cheers

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!
Hi everyone,
Thanks to KarrdeNZ's well written guide, I managed to flash my rom to
********Hero ROM for Magic modded for TW users (based on Fatal1ty2787's releases)********

I just noticed that my phone's LED lights are missing. The LED doesnt light up while charging, and it doesnt light up when receiving SMS as well. I think the LEDs just disappeared completely.
Anyone encounters this and is there anyway to solve it?
Thanks!
Hero ROMS currently have the following issues
Bluetooth headset/mic support is broken, though Bluetooth headset playback works fine - no known solution.
TouchFLO sluggishness - don't use it or minimise widget use - especially clocks.
LEDs mapped incorrectly - no known solution.
Camera flipped/oriented wrong - need to reinstall old Camera package to fix

I got my sms led working, via chompsms.
Charging still doesn't work but tats not really.important I guess
Yeah you can use chompSMS or SMS popup to get the message notification LEDs working again.
Also the LED does work while charging, well sort of, it will turn green when it's 'charged' but won't glow orange like it used to whilst 'charging'.

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,
Shahzad Ahmad
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.......
Hello everyone
I have a problem with my touch pro.
when I get a text message(sms) sometimes only the light around navigation control shows that I have a new message but the new text message sound wont play and when I press the power button(even after an hour) in order to turn on the lcd at this time the new message sound play, therefor I cannot answer a new message on time.
I have had my touch pro for 14 months and I have had this problem for 2-3 months.I checked sound & notifications and every thing is ok.
I changed the Rom to a new version but still I have the same problem.
Previous rom was : 1.90.456.3 WWE
New Rom is : 2.01.415.3 WWE
What should I do? It bothers me a lot.
thank you very much in advance.
I get this too now and then and also with e-mails. As i don't use stock ROMs i didn't worry too much but it is annoying as it doesn't even vibrate too.
However, recently I have been using windows mobile 6.5.1 default today screen rather than the HTC touch flow (manilla) today screen and I have not had this problem yet. So possibly it could be manilla which causes this problem.
Is anyone else having this problem?
yeah, same here. disabled touch flo and bam - sound everywhere lol
help meeeeeeee,
I still have the same problem !!!
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.
