For the owners : Does this device have a led notification?
For example , when you have a sms/missed call... Is there a led blinking to see if there is a missed call?
I dont wanna turn on the device to check that
yes there is a Mod for that, i was asking t he same question couple of days a go and i found the answer by googling it and guess what! i found it in this forum
but honestly i can't remember which forum or what i typed in google.
but it works well, when i have a missed call or message, the capacitive buttons lit but don't blink...
The green led blinks on a missed call, but has no other type of notifications. Not emails, SMS, tweets or Facebook messages. Red for low battery, green for missed calls.

pfff , and there is no setup to let it also blink on a SMS?
So now you NEED to turn on the device to see if you have an sms if you have the phone on silent?
Is there an option to vibrate every 10 min or something when a sms is received?
Yup, abit disappointed you can't turn it on for SMS/Email, but it's better than no visual alerts at all.
I think the best bit abit this phone is that it's few shortcomings are mostly in the software, which can be easily updated... *crosses fingers*
i've noticed that when you receive an sms, the phone vibrates (in my case, i only use viberation mode), and as soon you get the phone out of your pocket the screen turns on.
At first i tought I made the mistake to accidently press the power button while getting it out of my pocket, but afterwards when i took extra care the screen comes on when you take it out, it doesn't unlock tho.

Hi guys!
Sometimes on my Jam the yellow led is always on...
I'm sure to not have message to read or active appointments...
The only workaround is to do a softreset! :-(
FOr example:
yesterday the led was green... an appointment reminder appens with sound notification (dinner from 20 to 23).
The PDA was turned off but the notification ring sound and the led became yellow. The display was still off.
I turn the pda on and I see the bell symbol on the bottom right corner.... I tap on it and I see the reminder for my appointment.
After that the led don't becomes green!
I tryed to show the appointment in the calender ecc... but the led was stilll yellow.
I'm not expert and I thinked that the led will be green after the 23pm when my appointment will be ended...
This morning the led was still f..... yellow!!!
I made soft reset and now it's ok but I don't understand why!
How does the reminder notifications works?
Are you using phonealarm or alarmtoday?
I've noticed sometimes the only way to cancel the yellow led is to load the sms/email app (ie check your messages), regardless of what caused the yellow led, and whether or not you have a new message.
Anyone concur?

I installed PohoneAlarm but i removed it and now I'm usign PPCProfilePro...
I've noticed the led anomalies and the only cure I've come up with is to soft reset.
whenever the yellow gets stuck i go to settings->sounds & notifications
then click on notification tabs then sounds tab then notification tab again..
that should bring back the green led

I remember that! :lol: 8)
The bug must be from windows mobile. If you, when getting a notification popup, tap a button and hold it until the LED did blink once again and then release the button, the bug shouldn't appear. The solution I use is to restrict the blinking to a certein time period, I think you can set it to 90 minutes or something. I use PocketZenPhone to set this. Therefore, whenever this bug appears, it's gone after 90 minutes.
In my 9100, when you receive an unanswered call, the right led turns from green to orange, showing you that you had a call.
Is there a way to do the same when you receive an MMS or SMS, so you know just by looking at it, that you had a communication activity of any kind?
(I miss my Nokia 6600, that showed missed calls and sms's in the screen saver state)
Regards
It happens to all of us that we miss a phone call or we don't hear when an sms arrives. My old mobile phone used to continue to beep or vibrate briefly every few minutes until I actually confirmed that I knew I had missed the call or the sms. But the HD does not do that. So, I feel like I regularly have to be waking up my HD to see if I have missed something. Is there any way to set the HD to keep reminding me every few minutes after I missed a call, an sms or any other event?
PhoneAlarm is what you need. Find it here at PocketMax
Hi,
You don't have to 'wake up' the phone to know you've missed something. In Start>Settings>Personal>Sounds&Notifications you can tell your phone to keep blinking its small LED (on the power button) when you've got missed calls/txt msgs/etc...
Probably not as good as the suggested programm but still saves you having to push any buttons. Just look at the top of the phone from time to time.
Kind regards,

Thank you both for the help. I didn't realize I could set the blinking LED light to do that. I'll see how that goes. It might be good enough for what I need. If it is still not enough for me, I'll definitely consider PhoneAlarm. I saw it has a ton of features, but I really only need the repeating alarm feature, so I don't know if I would get it just for my one needed feature. But definitely nice to know the option is there.
I wish there were a registry hack where it would vibrate every so often for a given amount of time or until I checked what I missed.
My Desire HD doesn't light up its screen when I recieve a text/whatsapp message. When I have it in silent mode and having my phone standby, I cant see I've recieved something except the flashing LED.
Is it possible to (just like I did with my WM phone) tweak the register, so the display lights up by recieving a text message?
Thanks
I us "Handsent SMS" and this lights up the screen, and has other features. give it a try
ChompSMS also turns on the screen. You can set it to how long you want it to stay on.
Hello at all,
How does the LED notofication work on your device?
I use K9-Mail. there I have the option to set LED notification on. But nothing happens.
It should work for SMS (handcent) and K-9 (E-Mail)...
Is there a way to fix this?
hm, seems that it blinks 2, 3 times and thats it... what is the benefit of the light which blinks 0,8 seconds?!
next funny thing:
device is in standby, mail delivers, it rings, vibrates and the LED blinks 2 times. Then I reactivate the phone and the LED blinks one more time...
Is it such a big problem to get such basic function works. We have now Android Version 2.2 on the phone. so they had enogh time to develop this... or is this a problem ob Motorola...?
Mhh I never saw it being a problem. Whenever theres a mail, message, missed call it blinks green to a set timing. On WhatsApp, you have the possibility to set it to any colour you want. That only works if you have your phone rooted.. so that way, my phone now blinks purple for a WhatsApp message.
By the way... sometimes when u have a message and you turn the display off/lock it without reading it, then theres one longer led blink but then goes back to the normal pattern, I guess just to remind you before you put the phone away that there is actually an event that u missed. Theres a program called "Blink" on the AppsMarket where you can customize a colour for every event... if thats something you are looking for ?
