LED - Touch HD General

Hi!
I don't know if this is by design or it is a problem with my device but I found very strange that there is no led light to show me if I have signal or not or if there is an event. The led from the power button goes orange when I charge my phone and continuously green when fully charged. But when the device is disconnected from power source the led just goes off and stays like that even if there is a missing call or an SMS. It at least should blink green to show that there is signal. It is the same for you? If yes, is there a way to turn on the led?
I am using Dutty's ROM 2.1.
Thanks!

It does...
Change your sounds and notifications settings.

Sorry to insist but can you be more speciffic? What should I change there? For intance on the Missed Call I have selected "Display message on screen" and "Flash light for 30 minutes".
I am also using PhoneAlarm and this one is set to flash the led for most of the events. But it does not work either.
Thanks!

yes, you change to "flash for xx secs" for xx event
but the rest of the time it is off
its only 2 colour, ornage for charging and green flashing for events... .no blue for BT or steady on etc for signal

As I said, it is already set like that.

The LED is located on the power button.

Buggered setting i guess, try turning off the flash setting then try a reset and then turn back on again,

I will do that, thanks!

Does HD has blue LED for BT ?? mine doesn't shows blue LED for Bluetooth ( Only Green and Orange LED found. HTC original ROM 1.19 something). Am I missing something or there is NO blue LED like Elf/in
Can anyone confirm / clarify ?
Thanks ahead

Just tiny, faint green/amber LED. No Blue.

Not currently. I started a thread about having the backlight turn on when a message is received. I think this should be the same.
another thing google needs to fix ASAP!
I want the damn light to turn on when I get a message (screen)

I just noticed my battery like is down to 12% the notification light, isn't blinking at all.
Even with Bluetooth or wifi on my light does not blink blue. Weird.
I wonder if this is included in Androids "memory saving" feature. *Since the Android will self close apps in the background when it needs more memory. I don't know.
green blink
I just sent a txt to myself. light blinks green... cool!
Doesn't the light normally blink green, in stand-by mode?

The light doesnt blink as others cell phones do. The only time the light blink is when there is something in the notification bar. Test it out...
blue led?
I have yet to see the blue light just green orage and red...
anybody seen a blue led on a g1?
I think there's only one LED on the G1, and it's a red/green one (that looks yellow when both sides are energized.)

You can get it blue wen you hold the track ball down and powering up the phone.

I think it is four sided. Red, Orange, Green, and Blue
I have seen green and red LEDs mix before... and this doesn't look like that.

touch hd led light

i just purchased a touch hd and was wondering why the led indicator lights are not flashing?
i notice that there is an led indicator light on the power button and also next to the earpiece; from my old tytn II, the led indicator flashed amber for service and also blue for bluetooth.
i currently have service and my bluetooth is on, but i don't have any flashing indicators.
is there a setting to turn them on?
This is not a led is a light sensor.

The one next to the earpiece is a light sensor.
The other flashes green for missed event, stays green for finished charging, amber for charging, and flashes amber if you're low on power.
Is there a registry hack to get the "old" LED behaviour? (Cell locked in=Flashing green, Notification = flashing yellow, Bluetooth = flashing blue etc.)
I don't think there is a solution for this (yet).
in anycase, it is only a bi-colour LED - ie Amber and Green - no blue.
I have the same problem: my green led flashes for missed calls but not for incoming messages.....
Can you help me?
Thanx a lot

That LED is so tiny and dim I find it's easier to just hit the power button and look at my screen to see if I have missed calls/texts/etc.
well theorticall you woud have to seek out the powr button with eyes first
kdding
Thanks.....
My HD have an Italian ROM and the translation is poor...... nothing about "led blink"
I've resolved checking a flag translated as "turn on screen if incoming message".........
I think i'll try a WWE rom.....
Thanx a lot
dani, that is the correct option. Italian translations suck

Can someone check something on SMS POPUP for me please?

I've had my Hero about, well, 48 hours. Previously I had the Magic until I lost it
Anyway I used the SMS POPUP app on my Magic and you were able to change the colour of the LED flash for when a new text was received. I would change it to say blue on my Magic, so then the LED would flash blue for a new sms and green which was default for emails.
Now I'm on the Hero, installed SMS POPUP and even when I select to change the LED colour to blue, red, orange whatever, test it and it just always flashes green.
I tried another app called MISSED REMINDER and even when i tried to change LED colours with that it would only always flash green.
I think the LEDs do work correctly as it goes orange while charging and then turns green when charged.
Basically can someone check to see if they can change the LED colour in SMS POPUP?
Thanks.
I take a look at the app and also wasn't be able to change the LED colour.
Thanks, I was looking around some reviews and I have seen a few times where it says the LED can only change between green and orange. Seems weird that the Magic could handle multiple colours yet the Hero cannot.
I remember seeing it flash blue and even red. Dont know how or why but I am pretty sure I saw it.
orange and green is all i've seen
Orange = charging
Red = Battery beneath 15%
Green = Fully charged
Blinking green = E-mail in your gmail account. (or a peep update)
For sms only the trackball blinks (white) it also does that when recieving a pop3 mail (for example your providersmail.
I don't know how to get a blue led though

If you're unlucky you're likely to join the bunch of us that the LED's and the headphone jack stops working for.

Yeah have started reading about this.
Hopefully I'll be lucky though, haven't even had the phone 3 days.
The lights do work fine (orange and green and red), it's just on the Magic when using the SMS Popup app you could change the colour of the LED flash for when receiving a txt. Where as on this phone it's always green regardless of what colour I select from within SMS Popup.
Headphones still working, phone would be going straight back if that clonked out!

I will be holding out for that rumored update though... who knows... it might be a software issue *crosses fingers and prays to God... uhm... no wait... HTC*

LED indication

The LED has the following:
1. Green when fully charged and while on a charger
2. Amber when charging and not fully charged
3. Flashing when a new SMS, email or missed call.
My question is: how can I set my TD2 to flash to indicate a new SMS, email or missed call at the same time as charging? It would seem that the charging indication takes priority over the flashing.... I want the flashing to take priority.
Does anyone know a solution to this please?
I would like the same.It will be great with no missing call or sms until you unplug your phone...and what about the second light next right to the phone? thanks a lot

There isn't a second light - it is a light sensor.
The light flashes different colors. So it could have be in rhythm with one color and different rhythm of another color.
R=Red, G=Green, Y=Yellow, - = 1 sec
---R---R---R---R---R---R---R (Charging)
-G---G---G---G---G---G---G-- (Missed Call)
Y---Y---Y---Y---Y---Y---Y--- (New Message)
So if it were charging, while having a missed call and new message, it would blink
Yellow, Green, Red, Yellow, Green, Red, etc
If it were just charging and a New Message it would
Yellow, pause, Red, Yellow, Pause, Red, etc
Just a Missed call would be
Pause, Green, Pause, Pause, Green, Pause, etc
So basically if you walked away for a minute and you had a new message and missed call while charging... it would be going crazy. You could even make a dash equal to 2 seconds to slow it down... or 3.
Well Player911, you do have a vivid imagination! Simply just flashing any colour would do nicely for me when charging and something has arrived from SMS, email or missed call.
Can you fix it?
I would prefer a green blinking light simply as a 'breathing' light. Maybe it could blink amber/red when it is low on battery.
It should burn full time only when there's a new event.
Anyway, preference may vary, but I think we all agree that it would be awesome if we could customise it!

I have the ideas, but not the know-how.
I am close to a solution and am currently testing this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1954259.
It seems to work, but the drawback is that you lose the LED notification for charging/charged completely to get the LED's to flash on an SMS/Email/missed call....
EDIT: This doesn't seem to work. It will work for a while, but if you charge then remove and then charge again, the charging LED comes back on. This then overrides the notifications LED which is what I want to take priority Back to the drawing board.
Hi,
can anybody provide a hint on how to change flashing time of the green led indicator? It blinks on missing calls but I'd like to increase the blinking period. I have HTC TD2 with Manilla 2.5 and Touch Sense.
my TD2 comes tomorrow, i think i miss my kaiser's led indicators when using TD2. kaiser is the best and enjoying with its leds, mostly when gps wifi and bluetooth opened at the same time

My old P3300 (Artemis) was like that too - quite a light show with gps, wifi, and bluetooth all on. Doesn't last long, 'cos the battery goes flat!
I really miss the flashing green "in service" LED. It was so handy to know a) you had reception and b) the phone hadn't crashed or the battery expired. The TD2 just sits there "lifeless" giving you no feedback at all.

HTC Vogue LED?

Well, as you may know, on the front of the device there is a LED within the speaker that flashes green; blue when bluetooth is on; red when you soft reset the device; orange when you are charging. is there an app or registry tweak that will let me mod the intervals and what color flashes? one idea is to glow a color when you tap the screen, or have it flash rapidly in different colors when receiving a call or sms/mms.

It does exist (I am not sure about the functionality that this will allow you), but there is a program that someone made a while back to control the LED. It is under D&H and I will give you the name as soon as I can remember it. It was LED something...
