Hi, i've had my XDAII from O2 for 3 weeks now and have a few questions.
This morning when I woke up the XDAII's power/charge light was 'red'. According to my O2 manual, it's 'amber' when charging, 'green' when fully charged, and 'green flashing' when phone is on.
I pressed the Power Button and the XDAII sprang to life as usual, no apparant problems (ie no error messages or anything).
Any clues what red signifies, have searched but not found any answers yet.
Many thanks in advance.
PS device has latest O2 UK ROM (v1.60.50).
it means you missed a call.
i found it to be an extremely good addition over the XDA, in that you don't have to turn your device on to see if anyone called you. You'll also see a phone+exclamation mark on your taskbar. The red light will disappear when that icon is clicked.
I'm not sure if this also happens when the caller does not transmit their number.
so:
Green non-blinking = on cradle, fully charged
Yellow non-blinking = on cradle, charging
Green flashing = device on
Red flashing = missed call
Adding to this, it is not set up by default to flash red when you have received an SMS or mms.
But you can change this behaviour from the Sounds and Notifications options on the device.
And this is much more handy, in that you can then send a text to a friend, switch your phone 'off' (i.e. power off the screen etc), and only a glance at it is necessary later, to know if you have had a reply or not.
Great in noisy environments, or in a car etc.
Red Light Stays on even after dismissing reminder
I have my XDAII set up to display the RED light for a reminder (An Alarm). However, if an alarm goes off while I am away from my XDAII then the red light remains on even after I dismiss the reminder. In other words it is not resettign to Green. The only way to reset it is to do a Soft reset. HAs anyone had the same problem or have a solution?
yah I've had the same problem that my red light stays on after an alarm goes off, really annoying that you have to soft reset or play around in the the notification settings and then it disappears
hello there..
under PREFERENCES/SOUNDS&NOTIFIES (or hwatever in ENGL. cause my Win is GER here
i can set sounds and vibration and even a blinking LED....
right?
i understand that so, that for example if i miss a call or if there is a new sms it blinks yellow instead of green as usual...
BUT it would be reasonable if it blinks different till i notice that new thing.
BUT it blinks so long until the time is up that i chose in the preferences.... that is stupid... so it blinks longer, even when i recognised the missed call or the new message....
any comments of you to this topic???
thx in advance!
The 'FLASH LIGHT FOR' is your screen flickering

just set it for no limit and it will blink the led untill you read the notiffication
ahh perfect...

chears, hope it works though...
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.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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.
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 ?
