Very annoying, I like having my bluetooth on at all times incase i wanted to use my headset.. but when I have my BT turned on, it constantly runs a lil service light thing and blinks every 10 seconds it seems.
Any idea?
Try VJEschaton it turns them all off.

... or use a registry editor and change
hkey local machine\drivers\builtin\AllLEDmgr
from default 1 to 0 to shut down ALL led activity.
A nice registry collection is combined in tweaks2k2.net program
Cheers
oltp: does VJEschaton turn the leds off?
I'm intending to write in code to enable vibrate etc (or did I already do that, can't remember!), but I thought the Blue led was independant. Be cool if it does.
I don't think the blue led can be activated by normal code AFAIK, think it's at a driver level - I wanted to make a nice red,green, blue, orange flasher, but it got too late in the night to continue
V
V: I thought it did, just tried again with BT on & it keeps flashing blue & green. Then switched BT off & toggled it to orange. Next toggle keeps it orange :-(. But now led off, turns it green.
So the off switches to orange & on to green. Funny but unintended I think. Toggle only turns it orange & that's it.
Btw using v0.11
M
oltp: that's what I thought. My feeling is that the API used to control the LED defines most PDAs as having one or two leds by design. I think this was in the old days with non phone versions. So I think the led being controlled is the default Orange alert led, so we can switch that on and off.
However, I suspect that the Power led and bluetooth led are tied into hardware/drivers. There might be a way to control them, but it would require more digging and might not be compatible with all hardware.
FYI: the second "LED" is actually the vibrator, so it can be controlled by the same code. There are functions to control stepper speed and duration etc, so you could possibly use it as I/O controller for a robot or something, it you're were perversly inclined, like me
V
So the old joke about the mobile phone comes back to a more controlled life ;-)
No good it's mine, it's mine, it's no longer mine :-( back to my old nokia again. First the kids & now...
A truly sad, M
Why you sad oltp? It's Sunday and I'm still in the office, that's sad
What did you want to do? Disable all leds? There's always a way...
V
V: I know I'm @ home teaching NFS Underground to the kids, it could be much worse. Like next week I've to work @ night.
Flighing lessons will probably turn off all leds, but hey it's Yze's question not mine. I keep the leds blinking, so I know it's working even though the screen is off.
So back to the basics: use tweaks2k2.net to turn them of. VJEschaton is still under development.
V: do you implement the BT switcher in VJEschaton or another tool?
Keep it cool, M
oltp: hopefully tonight I'm releasing VJVolubilis for some control of BT. When you say BT Switcher, what do you mean?
I don't have time to finish all of VJVolubilis, but like VJEschaton, it's a good place to start, and continue adding new features over time (hence the low version numbers, 0.11 etc!). I want to investigate the Blue & Gree Led, but this type of coding needs so much hunting and digging
V
V: BT switcher is for me a tool/shortcut to toggle the BT state (not necessarily on an incoming call lol)
M
Oltp: good, I've put that in already. There are other apps to do this, but VJVolubilis will do a few things in one place.

All LED's(even bluetooth) can be disabled by this program

You've got two multicolour led's, at least one is multi colour, green blinking for network, orange when charging and green when fully charged.
Blue for bluetooth, obvious .
Now i wonder, how do i turn them off?
Is there a tool to do that ?
Im intrigued! Why?
When i'm watching divx with tcmp, i hate those blinking led's in front of me.
That's it

Buuuuuhhhhhtttttttt, how about JUSt turning the LED's off?
That was my original question, to turn off the LED's.
All other functions must remain available.
(Logitech Bluetooth Stereo )Headset, and when the phone rings i must pickup when on standby duty ......

But this is not a functional solutionas far as i read the article.
Searched and found that topic myself already by the way.....
For ur this simple prob u can simply paste a small piece of matching dark coloured tape so that they dont disturb u nemore. lol........
LOL, no that's covering up, not shuttung down
So anyone any ideas jet ?
They bother me a lot when traveling at night time, and it's in the holder, i want to be able to shut them down please.
Tape is no option.
They can be controlled and disabled, but it'll be messy to disable them. There are various drivers scattered around that want control of the leds.

Network, Charge and of course Bluetooth traffic are the ones i guess ?
How does one control these things, have you got any idea ?
The thing is, it's distracting me a lot when driving the car in the dark, that's why i ask. Also when watching divx it's distracting
The method I could write would be messy, inelegant. Easiest way is to disable allledmgr.

Sounds like a solution to me?
I have no idea to enable or disable allledmgr, can i do that in the Registry perhaps ? Would you like to teach me how to do that ?
Grtzzz from Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
You could always open the case up and try removing the LEDs.

Yeah, or buy a Nokia 8210 ....
Come on get serious
OK then, I'll be serious.
I have looked into this quite extensively in the past, tried hacking all sorts of settings in the registry and all I have managed to do in the past is turn off the network LED.
As far as I'm aware and have been able to work out, the Bluetooth and the WiFi are controlled by either the drivers or the hardware itself rather than registry settings and modifying the drivers is beyond my capabilities. Of course, if it's hardware then there's nothing that can be done.
Come on Vijay, I know you of all people can do it, good luck.

Here you go - VJImpoto, alpha release.
This will disable the LED driver (ie, battery charging leds, bluetooth, notification led, wifi led(?))
Note - by disabling the LED driver, the PDA won't be able to disable any currently activate leds, so eg if you're charging up (orange led active), and then run VJImpoto, the orange led will stay on until you soft reset whether you're charging or not.
So run it when you've got no LEDs on, and they'll stay off.
However: this is alpha, because I noticed that the "heartbeat" flash of the phone radio (green flash of led every few seconds) continues despite the LED driver being disabled: clearly that action is activated elsewhere on the system, so it'll need further investigation. However, this app merely disables AllLedMgr, so any flaws with that strategy carry here too.
Command line options:
-showinfo shows info on usage/donations
-debug shows feedback on whether it worked.
-killall killall will first attempt to switch off any active leds, so as discussed above, running VJImpoto -killall will first switch off the orange led, and then disable AllLEDMgr. However, this has the peculiar side effect of making the heartbeat flash now flash on the left green led on the Hermes. I recommend using -killall.
Please give feedback on if it worked for you. I'll make a cab later, .exe only for now.

First and atmost :
THANK YOU VERY MUCH for taking the time investigating and writing a possible solution for my little problem, however how small the problem seems, i have many thanks for you!
Don't have the time right now, but when arriving home it's on the top of my priority list, right below eating
AND WHOW IT WORKS!
For 5 to 10 minutes, then they all start blinking again.....
Here are my findings :
When i shut down all communications, and run the program from pocket-explorer, it works like a charm, even the Phone heartbeat won't blink.
After a period of 5 to 10 minutes however, they start blinking again.
The funny thing is, when i shut down all comunications, they keep blinking!
After a soft reset the situation is like before, as it seems to me, and they blink how they are supposed to, and stop blinking when turned off all communication devices.
I will look for a command line tool, and try it that way, for further examination, and ofcourse for finding the donation part
(by Paypal i assume ?)
I have the HDC 3600i Pro.
This is a little annoying (at night) so I wonder if there is a function to turn off the yellow operation light or at least stop it blinking.
note I'm talking about the light just above the screen.
I think the light is the one that says you have a link to the mobile carrier and the simplest solution is probably to put your Trinity face down on a cushion. It's what i do.
I did eventually find a hack called LED killer which I install and no blinking light
note it just disabled the blinking behaviour all the other functions like charging and wifi and bluetooth are still active..
exactly what I wanted
I think the LED killer is good for all HTC devices apparently.
Yes, you can change the led status by nueLed, i do the same for the Status Led that disturb my sleep

Bye.
I purchased HTC Touch 3G (Jade) Phone around 3 months back.
However I realized that the Bluetooth Blue color LED does not work when Bluetooth is enabled.
Also the Signal Indicator LED does not flash whenever the Network Signal is present.
I gave the phone to the service center and they told me that the motherboard needs replacement for the above LEDs to function. My question is :
1. Does HTC Touch 3G have a Bluetooth Indication and Network Signal indication LED ?
2. If not has HTC upgraded the motherboard to incorporate the Bluetooth and Signal indicator LED ?
The service center folks told me that motherboard replacement would solve the problem.
Could someone Please advice
Thanks
Sohel Sikandar
There is no hardware light, the status bar will show an indication when it is enabled.
Re:
Thank You for your reply.
The service center people have assured me that changing the motherboard will help. Either they have got some new model or ignorant about it.
My phone is lying with them since one week.
I dont know whether to trust them or get my phone back.
Also, what about the Signal Indicator not blinking when there is a signal? Do you have any idea what could be the problem ??
Regards
Sohel Sikandar
There's no signal indicator led and no bluetooth led present on this phone.
Read your manual and you'll find that there's only one led near the speaker (left of it) and it's only used as message and charge indicator.

The same question I want to ask, now I got the answer, thanks.
Hi
My Jade has a green led that blinks that indicates gsm network signal.
The "LED" on the right is the light sensor.
Hi there, I have readed about idea of programmed blinking of status LEDs arond of the sensor ring, but there was no more answers for that. So I think that it will be really nice and cool when they will flash every ~3-4sec. or just when the signal is avalible. Its nice when sms/call is on and its a bit pitty that its not usable for something another this time. Can anyone programm it ? Or any ideas around ?
I have already raised a request for this...still looking for a software that executes such a program.
It would be great to have such a program for our very own diamond.
Please guys make such a software.
+1 Yeah every other windows mobile has a notification LED. Cant anyone be kind and interested enough to make it?? This would make my diamond more lovable
+1
that would be cool! also a indicator for wifi and bluetooth would be nice!
Hi, today, I have downloaded the app. called TouchLockPro and there is one function what allows blinking of LED's ! wOw ! But it blinks just when is the display ON, so we need it blinking when he is OFF, but this is nice step forward. >Link for this APP.<
