Anyone else having issues with the capacitive buttons not lighting up? My back button works fine, but it's not lit at all.
Faulty Hardware
It may be you got a bad one, looks like your going to have to return it...
Looks like you have a defective unit, that sucks.

Turn your screen off and you'll see that there are no lights. When I turn my screen back on I'll see the buttoms. It's just the lights aren't bright enough. Can someone else post a screen shot of theirs?

Simi Clock and Beautiful Widgets.
Those lights look REALLY faint too.
I cann't understand how is possible some phones to be defective (either is the not lighted back button, either is GPS issue etc) and some to work properly....???
Aren't all from the same company (Samsung)??? Don't all phones manufactured in the same production line???
What the [email protected] is going on??? I cann;t believe what i am reading in all Nexus S threads...
Isn't supposed to be all phones exactly the same ones????

Double rainbow?! What does this MEEEAAAAN?
In seriousness, no two things are identical. Some phones could have been damaged in shipping, or slipped through the quality assurance program. Just because a company mass produces a product doesn't mean that each one of them are exactly the same.

Hi Guys
You know when you plug your phone to charger or to USB there is an orange light on the upper right corner of the screen.
Is there any way to modify this, so that new mail, new sms or any notification that we choose makes this light blink? (Like blackberry style or trackball LED style)
See the screen shot
Google has removed the APIs from Nexus One to control the trackball leds which is kind of dumbass thing to do

He's not asking about the trackball... he's asking about the one in the upper right of the screen....
But.. just curious... why don't you just want the trackball to blink? It's brighter and easier to see.

Trackball's light seems to be very weak.

I'm still curious about hacking the LED in the upper right of the screen...
Try Missed Call.
App was make for rooted devices, N1 led don't flash different colors, if it has been rooted when the charger or usb is plugged the led flashes the assign colors. Always flash is the app. ONLY WORKS FOR ROOTED PHONES.

This guy knows what he is talking about.
He just mis-worded it, well it could work either way actually. App developers cannot make the LED (top left one) blink at all - and they also cannot control the color of trackball flash unless rooted.
It seems though, if you are charging the phone - and use an app like Missed Call, or Hancent SMS, the color of the LED does change.. but only when charging..
It is like Google completely disabled the LED unless the phone is being charged, other than that it is entirely off with no way to be accessed. I'm sure someone will find a loophole around this eventually I guess ~.~

Agreed. I need something for email also. That trackball changer works only for sms/mms.
In the Desire-ROM (HTC Sense) that has been leaked and now is available to Nexus 1-owners, the LED can be controlled just as the original post asked for. Works here, right now.
Just saying, no nothing is "stopped" when it comes to controlling the LED. It's just that no one has put any time into yet IMHO.

one of my LEDs is burnt out. super pissed.
I need to ask.. for those of you that do like the HW LED, doesn't it distract you in any way especially in the evening/nights/dark????
I never understood why SE designers came up with this OR for that matter what was the true intention of these LED's.
On another matter, shouldn't this thread be part of the General sub-forum instead of this Dev area?
Thanks for this info nevertheless.
what does hw stand for...???does disabling led saves battery???

hahaha ...same here... this app did the leftover part..!!
This app is very good for lowering your brightness when you are in the dark,
because the default lowest setting is still very bright for a little-to-no-light enviroment.
But it has to run constantly in the background and uses a lot of CPU,
so I don't think it is wise to be used as a HW LED disabler.
But if you are in the movies and want to check your messages
without people next to you whining about blinding them with your screen, it's superb!

I think that they include it so like if u get a notification, message, text what ever u can just tell by the LED u dont have to slide to unlock it. just seems simpler,faster and easier, could b wrong but
Please tell me how tu disable this LEDs wiht this program, a don't see this option ?
Enable / disable soft-key backlight - no effect on my stock 2.1 Xperia X10 (2.1.A.0.435 + Arc Theme)
Edit:
I read somewhere that it works only on Android 2.2+ ... it's true ?
I like them as an accent piece. They don't bother me and the couple of times my phone has frozen their continued on status was a quick heads up without waiting too long.
Plus I don't pull my phone out in the theatre!
thanks for this, great app
Is there a way to make this app start on phone boot? If there is, could you tell me a "dummy-way" to do it?
Is there any way to disable that annoyng tilting effect og the sense 3??? I don't know why but most of the time I turn on the phone the screen is rotated left or right.
yeah settings then display then auto rotate, turn that off

Maybe I made a wrong question. When you hold the phone on hand and you move it from left to right, objects on screen remain alligned with the floor. It's quite annoyng and it doesn't work as well....

The home screen tilts if I move the phone. I hate thing thing!
any chance of a vid or photo of this? I've never known anything like that before.
from what i gather, he's saying that the software image is staying aligned with the horizon when he moves his phone. so if he tilts his phone at 45 degrees, sense will still be in line with the horizon, where as you or I would need to tilt our heads at 45 degrees to see it aligned properly....get it?

two days ago i tested on the dhd a coocked rom, Rmix i think, that came with sense 3.0. It has the same thing, that I assume is a standard feature of the sense. I cannot believe you don't see it. Try to move the phone from left to right in the home screen: I can see the edge of the clock, in the meteo widget you see the moon or the sun in 3d. At a first sight it's amazing, but now, when i switch on the phone the screen is not aligned.....

Wuddup Freshly? I haven't seen you since back in the day on the Cyanogenmod MT3G forums.
Anyways, I think the problem he is referring to is when you go to hang up, the screen just stays black (g-sensor not working correctly) instead of the screen lighting up to hit end. I've seen the screen light up but not respond when taking the phone away from your ear also. Let's hope these bugs get taken care of very soon with an OTA, along with many others.
An unlocked BL would be better so I can fix these little problems myself but I'm not holding my breath to receive it soon.

I have seen this problem with my phone... but dang, I don't even have problems with dust on my screen and if I exchange it I'm risking it... hmmm
I had to get a replacement phone because the volume button stopped working.
I don't know if it's just me, but it seems that the display on this new one is very washed out and had a pinkish tint to it... I don't know, it just doesn't look right.
Does anyone else have this issue, or is it all in my head? I am a picky person
UPDATE: I just called Verizon for a replacement with no problems. Hopefully this new one has a fresh screen.

Sounds like a display panel issue to me. I would definitely beginning another replacement. I know its a hassle but I that would drive me nuts. I know if you're not happy with it you can have another replacement ship to you. I wouldn't wait too long though get it taken care of as soon as possible

I definitely call them and find out that information for sure. I'm sure if there's an issue with the phone that they'll send you another one free of charge. Just call and explain it to him. You don't know until you ask. Now it specially since you're on the newest firmware you can't root it I would definitely be exploring my options
