When I first purchased my Inspire it was about 4 weeks ago I had a flashing orange LED indicator to tell me when I had received a message(charge was also orange). Considering I had to replace that old one because of a couple stuck pixels I noticed my "new" one flashes a green LED when I receive messages.
Is HTC shipping Inspires with different LED's or am I just going crazy? lol

Are you sure it was flashing Orange?
I've never seen the led on my phone flash Orange.
Just solid Orange when charging, solid green when charged, and blinking green for notifications.

When its dying it blinks orange.

With CM7 nightly 79 my notification LED color is orange. I haven't bothered to change it back to green.

I have noticed that cm7 roms flash orange for notifications meanwhile sense and miui flash green for notifications (except of course during charging and low battery in those cases they are the same between the roms). I haven't really found an explanation for the differences but something I've noticed throughout my flashing voyages lol
Thanks for clearing it up for me guys...i never really payed attention to the color of my led, so I was not sure...

Hey guys,
This isn't a big issue but something that has bugged me a little. There is a notification light in the speaker grille of the one x. It's green when any custom notification and red when low battery
Now when I use whatsapp there is an option to configure the led light colors to any other than green. But it doesn't work. Jus always green. Bay ideas why?

Hello All,
Looking to use the phone's LED flash, as a notification... text messages for example.
any suggestions?
Not to sound like a super **** but: have you tried Google Play? I think there's apps that do that

why? that would kill battery like crazy, not to mention it would heat up the led bulb to the touch.
Try light flow on the market. They have a lite version but you may have to be rooted. I don't have time to try it right now but should work. As for heating the led that's not even a concern.

Lightflow does allow for led use. Ive used in the past with the hox.

if i wanna use my phones LED to cook meth, who cares... while i can see the LED using a lot power -im only looking for a couple fast blinks when a text is delivered, thought this was a native function within CM9/10, but thats not the case.
Oh what I'd do for a multi-color LED like the original nexus
+1 for light flow. Go sms also lets you set the notification light. The HOX displays green orange and red.
LEDs don't produce heat

Large ones most certainly do. Like the ceiling light ones all have heatsinks.

Works great. Hope this helps.
So I was considering taking my new RAZR HD Maxx back because my notification light seems to not be working. I ran the battery down and there was a red light flashing, so I'm wondering...... is there something I have to do to get the notification light to work for notifications of the normal things like email, text, talk, facebook etc?
Thanks in advance!

So I did some more googling, looks like if you use the "restore" feature it can cause the LED not to work properly when setting up the device.... i mean WTF lmfao.... anyone found any work arounds let me know. I'll hold off until Monday to do a wipe and see if I can get this working.....

Odd. I did the google account restore and mine works fine... Have you done a reboot? Double checked the notification preferences?
Its worked fine for me. Might be something that works itself out after a bit. That is kinda normal to happen i guess.

download the light flow app and test notification. My first one didn't work at all. I exchanged it and the new one worked flawless, no issues. If the notification test doesn't work with the light flow app, I suggest you take it back and exchange it and download the app in store to test the exchanged unit.
My exchanged unit worked asap with the test I ran with the light flow app.
There is a video on droid-life I believe that shows you how to do it. Just google, droid razr hd notification light and it will show up.

Yeah, I had the same problem. First time I set it up, I restored from my Google account and the LED did not work at all for notifications. I tried Light Flow, but that did not get the LED's working again. I factory reset the device, but this time I did not restore from my Google account and the LED's starting working again. I had to manually restore my apps and settings.
I've done this a few times to test and everytime I restore from my Google account, the LED stops working. Definitely a bug in the restore functionality.
Dang, same problem here. Looks like I'll have to factory restore tomorrow after root and tibu.

When doing the test mode from the light flow app, is green the only color that is being tested on RAZR HD?

Light flow put my phone in a boot loop. Be careful. I have the paid version.

I've tested Blue, Green and Red so far. Those work well - will try yellow and white later.
My notification light works with light flow as long as screen is off. Any way to get led to work even with screen on?

Pretty sure that is a limitation of light flow. Or it may be a Motorola limitation.

You're right. I checked with Andrew. The phone LED only works when it's off.
I wouldn't use light flow (free version). Tried it for a bit and made my phone reboot, freeze, and go really slow. Of you have bad battery, I would say light flow is the cause.

I have been using the same app since I got my phone a few days ago and I haven't experienced any problems you describe. Battery is awesome and the phone is snappy.

Same here, a lot of wake ups reported by better battery stats, could be normal though?

Anybody have the white RAZR?
Have you seen the notification light at night?
It makes the whole phone glow. It looks badass when its flashing red.
I don't know if the black phone does that.

I tried millions of apps for changing the notification led color, but none worked. Can the desire S even do it? I'm rooted btw...

Are you sure? I tried CyanogenMod 7 the other day, and I noticed the LED switched between green and yellow. I thought it must be a software/driver thing. (I'm on official ICS now, so I can't verify the LED color.)
