is it possible to control led indicator of tp2?
id like to make its behaviour as on old devices: green blinking when gsm is on and orange on event
That sound a good idea. Anyone?
nueLED. its here on xda somewhere. you'll need v1.5 i believe
nueLED doesnt work on new htc devices, correct me if im wrong
so, no one wants the same ?
nueLED works on my sprint tp2...heres the cab!!
how did you configure it?
i redirect notification to signal led and no luck
what is low battery address ? i want notification led to blink orange(red)
i checked adresses/modes in diagnostics mode and they are correct
i made notification to blink orange(as low battery)
its address;mode is 4;4
but still have no success with signal
I don't know how to config this either but I also would like a notification led!
Why would they take this away?
FWIW, nueLED locked up my phone very badly. When I tried to uninstall it, I was unable to. In order to uninstall I had to use SPB PP safe boot, and boot in safe mode, then I had to use SK Tools to uninstall it. I then had to go into registry and make the changes recommended in the nueLED thread. Even after all these steps I have never been able to uninstall the nueLED registry folder, but it does seem that now my phone is working properly even though folder couldn't be deleted.
If I hadn't had SPB PP and SK tools installed already I would have been seriously out of luck.
yes, there are problems uninstalling it, but it doesnt matter for me, i just want old behaviour

Yes, I did that. But even after doing that my LED was non-functional. Fortunately i got it sorted out with the help of Safe Boot and Sk Tools
EDIT:
Hmmm, the message seems to have been edited. The original message suggested changing registry:
"aZzz.bZzz has just replied to a thread you have subscribed to entitled - LED controller - in the Rhodium themes, applications and software forum of xda-developers.
This thread is located at:

Here is the message that has just been posted:
***************
yes, there are problems uninstalling it, but dont be afraid, just manually edit registry as no2chem said: HKLM/Drivers/BuiltIn/AllLedMgr/Index =1"
Anyway, I am sure it must be a good program for some, but on the Tilt 2 stock ROM it causes serious problems.
Does anyone know if the Touch Pro2 even has individual LED colors to control? , other than Orange, Green? Because it seems to me that those are the only colors i have been able to find Using NueLED. Thanks
It was my understanding that nueled for TP2 had issues because of the controller and how the dll works... if this works that'd be great news, but I'm not going to test it
tldr: I'd like results without having to do anything.
seems nobody got tp2 led to blink green on gsm standby
the only thing i made is notification(event) led to blink orange
but even in that case there are some issues: sometimes it blinks orange from the second blink (first is still green), and it doesnt stop blinking in 3rd party apss, for example in qip messenger

nueLED 1.5b doesn't work on my Sprint TP2. What I am trying to do is to let my Sprint TP2 blink for new messages when I am charging the phone. I was playing around different settings, but the only thing I can do is to turn on/off the charging orange light. Any suggestion?

I would like to be able to program one of the buttons to turn on the flash, it takes too long to sometimes open the cammera so I would like to get the flash to go on.. (and on the brighter light also).. any ideas, links?

Nope - no solution as of yet. Your best bet is to go to the following thread, and choose "Watch this topic" at the bottom.. then just follow any updates to it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=41642&highlight=flashlight - VJCandela - torch/flashlight on HTC Phones
Just to make this clear - at the time of this writing, vijay's utility does not work on the HTC Wizard. If anybody has an HTC Wizard to spare to send to him, he can probably make it work
any news on this one ?
or has anyone an idea where to look in the registry for it ?
i really like to have a litte prog or shortcut key for the flashlight to
function as a flashlight
vj has one
if you would read then u should have noticed this little part of text which says: vijay's utility does not work on the HTC Wizard.
offcourse i tried it and many others and even tried to alter the program
but since no-one knows what keys involved i thought i might bring this to
attention... hopefully someone will try and find this out as i think many
people would like to have this feature.
Ok, now we have many ROM cooking tools. So I want to ask: Is it now possible to hack the LED drivers to control the behavior of the LEDs. A fast blinking blue or red LED would be nice on an incoming text message.
Which device?
V
A Windows Mobile 6 powered device.
Ha. Yes this is very possible. In fact there are many programs available that control the blinking of the LEDs - I'm particularly fond of Resco Audio Recorder which blinks the red LED on my Hermes while I'm recording.
I imagine it would be possible to create a small program that could check for an SMS notification icon at the top of the screen and blink your LEDs accordingly whenever you receive a message, however there's probably an even more simple way of going about doing this. So in short, yes it's possible but I don't believe 'hacking' any drivers would necessarily be required, just a bit of creativity.

Excellent answer!
I think I can do this on my iPaq 1710... Oh wait, it only has one LED and it can only do orange and green. How do I get it to blink blue?
Sorry about that, I didn't mean to insult you or anything, but you obviously don't understand the concept of "hardware driver".
Basically, the driver is what connects the OS which is generic (same for all devices) with specific hardware component (like LED) which is different or at least connected and accessed differently on different devices.
For example, I saw a picture of an upcoming samsung phone running WM 6 and it would have completely different LED driver than say a Wizard (also running WM 6).
And just for the record: There is a big difference between cooking a ROM, and actually creating a hardware driver from scratch (which is more or less what you need here). Plus if one could access the existing driver with a simple app that monitors the desired event replacing it would not be necessary.
P.S. The colors are wrong on purpose. Just remembered this little game all of a sudden...

Hey what if you could get your camera flash to blink a few times. That would be kinda fun.
that would be possibly using mortscript and vijay's software (candela?)

Especially a HTC TyTN.
But it seems that´s impossible to control the LEDs.
belinea: Thanks for specifying hardware device. Lancealot is talking about the standard notification led, which is required by the standard PocketPC hardware specification. This can be controlled by anyone through the operating system. However, the other leds (eg Blue, Green etc) are typically manufacturer specific, and thus, as my good friend levenum says, these will almost certainly require a specific, per Manufacturer (or even per device) solution.
But it seems that´s impossible to control the LEDs.

PS btw, there was once discussion of using VJCandela to make a Text to Morse Code app. You can certainly use the flash as a notification device if appropriately programmed, but not much functionality I guess.

It´s also possible to drive the LEDs.
Are you interested to spent some time to program a tool to lit up the red or blue LED on a incoming SMS notification? I will send you a big donation if you can do that.
Can you post some detailed informations how to lit up the TyTN LEDs (some sourcecode parts of VJPlumBum)? Or is this a little secret ?

I'd love to write such an app, but I'm working on two fairly large projects for someone else right now which take priority over my smaller stuff. I'd be very interested in writing such an app though - how big a donation are we talking? PM me if it's VERY urgent.
I'm afraid the source code of VJPlumBum can't be released right now for various confidentiality reasons. You could reverse engineer the same functionality using an app like Haret though. It'd be messy, but possible. The necessary hardware info is probably already on the wiki I think, for the Universal. However, AFAIK, Haret for Hermes isn't fully functional yet.
The app that you suggested is something I have in mind for a future project though, including some other major OS mods in the same area...
V
Great informations vijay555.
If I can change the color of the LED and the blinking frequency with your tool on an incoming SMS, I wil donate you with 100$.
Would love to see a tool for controlling the LED - one of the big areas that software hacking has yet to cover.
Personally I think it would be great if the orange flashing when a message was received should be a solid orange. Sometimes I have to stare at my phone waiting for a flash to see if I have a missed call/message. Surely the dll can be hacked to change orange flashing to orange solid...

@vijay555: Have you started the "LED project" already?
HermLED
I'd waited for quite a long time for vijay555 to start his LED project.. but at some point I got enough waiting.. so I looked into the nleddrvr.dll and AllLEDMgr.dll. This took a while before I got it working, but it was tottaly worth it
Here you have a working program that allows you to control all the LEDs of Hermes. I've also attached full source code, so that you can use it in whatever way you like. It's licensed under GPL. It's not a masterpiece, but it's working and that's the point.
If I have some free time tomorrow, I'll make a RIL client so that you can use this for new SMS notification.
Edit: I've added the possibility to turn on/off the led not just blink
Usage:
hermled [R|G|B|AM|LG] [ON|OFF|BLINK [num_blinks] [blink_length ms] [interval ms]
R - RED
G - GREEN
B - BLUE
AM - AMBER (RED + GREEN)
LG - LEFT GREEN
Led on treo 700wx (WM5)
hey-
I was wondering is you could set the led to blink green when there is service, solid red when there is no service, now there is no setting option so you have to do some kind of hacking. Now I have a quick question: These LED's, can they do more than just the green/red/amber if so i would love to be able to play with the colors.
Sure, that would be possible to do service/no-service notification with leds. And the other questions.. From what I've found each physical led have two colours:
a) right: RED/GREEN
b) left: BLUE/GREEN
and for some reason it is impossible to mix left blue/green leds. Amber `led` for instance is a product of RED and GREEN turn on together. Perhaps there's sth more to discover, but right now it's all I got.
@piopawlu:
GREAT !!!!!!! Many, many thanks for this.
oh this looks like it has so much promise
Will have to test on my WM6 P3300 as soon as I have a chance.
what are you guys using for switching profiles ?
i'm looking for a basic profiles app along thelines of ppcprofiles or phoneweaver.
unfortunately, i cannot seem to get phoneweaver to work at all - changing profiles says that the notification has changed but it never does.
is anyone else having this problem or should i blame it all on tf3d ?
thanks in advance
I always use the SPB movile shell and want more profiles too!
you could use spb phone suite. it works but imho it takes up too much place on the today screen.

Hi there all,
you could use the Touch HD\ HTC profile manager. It can be found under the Xperia Programs, Panels and tweaks section for the Xperia. I was also looking for the same thing a while back, and found that.
hope that helps!

Can you post a link please? I can't find it and neither can the search engine.
At the moment I use SPB Phone Suite and it integrates into the Mobile Shell panel, if you don't like it on your today screen.
Sorry, my mistake... first post! Link Contained.
Here is the link to the whole thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441439
the section your after is under Touch HD utils its called volume control
Regards
Winmowgster
I dont think we are talking about the same thing? ... the volume control is just a new skin for setting the volume right? .. I think with profiles we mean like they are used in nokia phones where depending on your selected profile u ve a different ringtone, volume, message tone etc. ?
cause I d find something like this really useful .. at the moment I cant even figure out how to change the tone of when I receive a text message.
Looking at the Original Poster's request, I suggested a solution, which I thought fits the bill pretty well.
If you want to switch between silent, ring and vibrate then this does the job.
having read the request again, and googling the programs that mrdo tried, i see that i may have made a mistake. :S
The SPB Phone Suite is awesome! Well worth the dosh! Have as many profiles as you want plus automatic time or event based profile switching.

thanks for your input. i do have the touchstone volume control installed and it's very handy but i am looking for something that will allow me to switch ringtones, alerts and volumes at the touch of a button.
after a hard reset and yet another reinstall of my apps, phoneweaver still doesn't work. grrr and double grrr.
mrdo, what is the problem specifically? Is there an error on the device or do you start the application but nothing of significance appears?
I briefly tried phoneweaver and had the latter problem. Couldnt figure out whether it was running or not.
In the end I ended up giving up and going for the Touch HD simple profile manager.
I don't find HTC profile manager in that thread, can u post the direct link?

Despite doing the registry tweak suggested in the FAQ (point 24, I think), and using various cabs suggested here in the forum, my LEDs have yet to work for email or SMS notification. I've been using WinMo phones for a few years, so the failure isn't due to my "noobhood".
I find it astounding these phones were released without this working. Anyone got anymore wisdom concerning how to get these to work?
If you're referring to the green LED blinking when you have an unread SMS message or missed call, mine has been working from day one, without any tweaks.
Mine has worked from day one as well, except for when I receive an email.
i installed the cab, then realised i really didnt need it. uninstalled and it still flashes when i get an sms.
I used BsB Tweaks to enable the options under the windows "Sounds and Notifications" panel (they were unusable, grey) and set the respective entrys to "infinite" (or unlimited, however its called in english). Now they work like a charm and the LED blinks to the end of the day.

Mine has worked from day one.........but only had it one week
It works. Without any tweaks. But the orig. hotfix from HTC is installed...
It works for SMS, missed calles etc. Has anyone got it working yet for new emails received?
Mine works from the beginning too, but I am interested in making notification LED work with Skype. I asked twice already and no response.
I don't use pop email so I don't know about that, but for me it works for calls and sms
Hmmm, mine's never worked, and not even after a hard reset, so it's either hardware or the ROM I'm using (that Turkish 1.61). Time to go ROM hunting, I guess.
From the answers here, it's still not clear whether the LEDs work for email (POP or IMAP) or not.
Thanks all.
Mine works when it want to. Very intermittent.
Sorry to bump this up for my own selfish purposes, but after switching to a different ROM, the email LED still doesn't work (even with the various registry tweaks and cabs).
Just trying to get a definite answer from a broader range of users: does the LED notification work for new emails on anyone's HD2?
Thanks, and sorry for being annoying.
works for sms and missed calls but not for emails. this has been since day 1.
i think until someone creates an app, or htc releases an enhancement you won't be seeing this functionality for email.
I've had an extended email correspondence with an HTC tech today concerning the non-working email LED notification: He swears up and down that *his works perfectly*, so until such time as he (and HTC) gets more complaints, they won't be pursuing it.
Here's the support form: http://www.htc.com/www/CS_Mail.aspx

Really? I wonder what the difference is. I've tried 4 different ROMs, including 1.48 hoping to get this working. After flash, I add *nothing*, hoping to see if an unadulterated machine might work. No dice. Then I add BsB and add the tweaks. Still nothing.
I'm not obsessed: just work in a completely quiet profession where alarms are taboo.
Anybody got wisdom on this?
when its not working you surly messed up your registry.
For not so advanced users and people how are lazy to read a complete post for a tweak (and are installing cabs which might not been written for your Rom or manila version) i recommend to modify the registry only manualy with a registryeditor. So you can control what is changed (and change back if needed).
To activate led notification use the registryhacks which are posted in this forum so many times.
And yes, you can change almost every event notification which is listed in your soundsettings menu (email too)
A old but goody post i found in this forum:
Hello,
I was wondering how I can stretch the time a LED notification is visible (blinking time).
As it is now, the LED stops blinking after about 5 minutes. This is to short for me.
Any idea how to adjust this timing?
