It has happened also to me. What's more the options button broke down but it turned on yesterday but the led under the home is still dead.
as what i know, quite a few users broke the 4 bottom LED with no idea.
for me, i actually dont care, also,i use LED OFF App to make sure they turn off.
they just too bright for me, they make my eyes uncomfortable.

My LED broke after i overclocked to 1.2GHz and i fell asleep and my phone was under me.It heated up quite much,then i noticed the broken LED. So im guessin it was the overheating.

Does anyone know of an app or a setting to control the touch button lights at the bottom of the screen?
i tried searching for a solution but found none.
I like reading off of the kindle app at night and with 22% brightness and white text on a black background, the result is a perfect experience -- except for the four blinding leds every time I turn the page...
This might also be helpful for those with issues during streaming video (i.e. Netflix).
I apologize in advance if this has been dealt with/is in the wrong place.

That is a very good question and I have the same problem while reading on my phone. I'm going to try and do some research to see if I can come up with a solution.
Try this. I don't know if it works or not yet

Bump for a good question
the light buttons are bright as fkc at night. +1 good question.. probably saves battery too if someone can dev this app.

Install BLN control and check Activate Notifications. The lights will only stay on for a few seconds after you touch the screen/buttons.
Thanks for trying guys. I want to completely disable those bad boys. I know where they are. Don't need a searchlight!
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
Well you can't disable them. Not even the stock roms let you do that, the best bet is for them to only blink, which is they turn on when you're using them.
Some black tape works lol

Would the touchscreen still work with black/electrical tape? That makes me wonder, but I am lazy and have none on hand to test out.

Anyone have the same problem as me? Basically my capacitive button back lights tend to not always actually light up. They choose when they want to light up. I usually do a reboot and they go back to normal but an hour later they shut off and turn on whenever, rarely turn back on though.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
They are turned off when the sensation is exposed to light and are on when there isnt that much light. For example, using the sensation in sunlight will keep it off while using the sensation in a dark room will leave it lit.

Yeah, I get what you mean, my G2 was like that as well.
Thing is that im in my room right now and its dark in here, besides my tv which isnt emitting much light and theyre off right now. Luckily i still know where the buttons are located and which one is which, but its annoying knowing theyre off when they should be on.

Sounds like its time to send in your phone for a replacement. I just tried on mine what you described, and my keys light up. I would get a warranty exchange

Just put your finger over the light sensor. If the capacitive lights come on, they work.
If they don't come on, they don't work.

I just learned that if I put my finger over the sensor light, the button back lights turn on. That is great news, because I didn't want to send my phone back.

True, but they shouldn't function that way. It should be automatic. I'd send it in for repair.

They are 'automatic'. They come on when the phone is booted, and when the ambient light is low.
They don't STAY on when you can see them perfectly well without being lit. That would drain your battery life faster.
That's actually a good thing.
People shouldn't return a device because of a 'feature', IMHO.

Mine stay on constantly regardless of light. Not sending it for repair as it's likely software not a hardware problem.

I don't even realize if mines are on or off since I know where the buttons are, so I guess it doesn't bother me.

It happens to mine from time to time....first pink a couple of times then blue...freaked out when I first saw it but if I change screen brightness it goes away...doesn't matter what ROM...

Btw: I took a screen shot thinking it would come out and I'd post a pic here but the screen was perfect....

Mine did this when I started using MIUI, until then I never had this problem. Just turning the screen on and off seemed to fix it but I'm curious as to if it's actually hardware or something in the ROM. My infuse isn't that old.
Yeah, it's happened to me about 3 times, 2 yellow, one BRIGHT purple.
It only happens on full brightness too, as soon as you touch the brightness meter, it goes away.
Note to self, set brightness just a notch below full.

Noticed with my Captivate I had this issue with some roms when I was on CM7 and DG. When I would do a update it would go away.
I am on Hellfire sand witch 1.6 Just wondering my phone will be sitting there and for no reason I am aware of it will awake or the screen will turn on and then go off over and over. At some point it will stop. It has happened while on other roms as well and on other g2x phones I have. Is there a reason why this is happening or am I doing something wrong or setting something wrong?

is it plugged in?
sometimes if your charger is not putting out the right voltage, the phone can switch between USB and AC which causes the phone to wake up for a second on some ROMs.
also, how does your power button look? (not broken, or really dirty or anything)
All looks fine and it happens when it's not charging. I'll have to keep an eye on it while charging it. The phones work fine they just do this every so often. I was not sure if It was a setting or something sence it was doing it on a couple of phones I have. Maybe it's just the nut behind the steering wheel is loose. I guess I'll figure it out sooner or later thanks for the info.

my gf's HD2 used to do the same thing after she dropped it pretty hard and it landed on the lower right hand corner
Maybe there's a magnet too close to it...
But nah I have no idea why it could be doing that other than hardware problem.
Thanks for the suggestions. The phones all work fine but I will check on if I have it near a magnet when I see it doing it again. I guess It's just one of those things.

Just curious if everyone else's buttons backlight all three are either lit up or not. On mine, the back and home are while the recent one is sometimes. My guess is that it's a defect. It's just weird that it'll light up with the others occasionally so I know the light works. I really hate to have to swap this thing out cause everything else works great.
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium
I've been trying to figure this out, actually.
All three of mine are either on or off - but it seems like while the phone is plugged in (not being touched) with the screen on... the buttons are lit up all the time.
Only this morning they were off while the screen was on and the battery was charging. Very weird.
You know, I just noticed mine are off. Going to investigate.
