Change The Color Of The Flashing LEDS - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Hi everyone,
I tried searching the forum for this one but I couldn't find anything.
Is it possible to change the color of the flashing power led? Or the flashing for events like new texts or emails?
I like the "blue tooth" blue a lot more then the standard green light
And the orange flashing led can be everything from a missed call to a new email.
(I guess since the OS can communicate this to the hardware, it should be possible right?)
I guess this goes deep into the hardware level of the phone...
Anyone got any ideas?

Welcome to forums
I remember read something about this in the Wiki:

Not sure where...
Good luck,

bootloader gone

hi all,
after some playing 8) with the bootloader and the SDCard I come up with this situation:
my O2 is dead and nothing work, also the invocation of the "wallaby" doesn't work.
I feel that the bootloader is gone.
I notice that when I invoke "wallaby" the led blink fast red.
And, looking throught the phone jack, a red led comes up and stay one since another soft-reset.
Is there anyone that can help me ?
I have the same problem. My XDA is dead (so it seems). Did you find a solution?

Flash light on new email?

Under the notification settings for New Email message there is an option to "Flash light for X minutes", however, no matter what I set in there my Jasjar doesn't flash either of it's lights when I receive new email. The other settings there are working because I can change the sound or turn vibrate on or off, but the light doesn't seem to work. Does this work for anyone else? Any ideas?
Thanks,
Brett
A bit more information... I was just looking through some of the notification settings and I noticed that my Jasjar was also set to flash the light on missed calls and on voicemail. It does not flash the light for either of these events. The lights to flash slowly when the Jasjar is operating normally, so I know that they function.
Brett
Isn't that an option to flash the screen (backlight) rather than the LED's??
Or am I just being an idiot? I've never used that function in my life on any PPC phone, I've always just assumed....!?

Hmm... I don't know. This is my first PPC, so I just assumed that it was the LED. Can anyone confirm how this should work?
Thanks,

No. It's not an option to flash the back light. The led on the right is supposed to flash red/orange for alerts.
You learn something new every day...!
Seems a bit pointless though...how many people are going to stare at the flashing light for ages to see if the colour is changing!?
My idea is much better :wink: !!!

LOL... maybe, but I want it because I carry the Jasjar in a belt holster. It would be nice to just be able to glance down at the device and see if I have an email waiting.
Can anyone try this and see if they can get their LED to flash?
Thanks,
Brett

Brett,
Be aware that the led is a bi-color led. When there are no notifications, it will flash green. When is it flashing because of a notification, it flashes amber. When it is charging it stays amber, in order to switch to green when it is done charging.
It actually is helpfull. I usually have my MDA Pro lying on the table, screen off. By the color of the led I can tell if there is anything I need to attend to on my device. Quite handy, actually...
Hope this clarifies matters.

I understand that and my LED does everything that you've listed except for flashing amber. When I have it set to "Flash LED" for new email it just doesn't change when I get new email. Does yours?
Thanks,
Brett
Yes mine does, just set my JasJar to check for messages every 5 minutes, and sent myself an e-mail, an lo and behold, it started flashing orange.
I'm converted, it is a good idea!

::grr:: Why doesn't mine work then? I've been debating doing a hard reset... I've installed a few programs that didn't uninstall properly... maybe it's related to that.
Brett
Well... I just did a hard reset and the first thing I did was configure the jasjar to flash, then I set up my email account and sent myself a message... and my LED started flashing orange too. I was hoping for a faster flash, but hey... I'll take what I can get
Brett
glad to hear you got it working.

HTC Hero-Trackball mod

I saw some about Trackball mod for Nexus One!
Change notifications,color mod etc.!
Is it possible at HTC Hero,too?
Or perhaps by the LED, which appears when loading the battery?
The LED behind our trackball is only white, so we'll never get this. It'd be nice though, my buddy got a N1, and I think that's one of its coolest features (is that sad?)
EDIT: As far as the LED goes, it only does orange and green (and maybe red when the battery's low?) I don't really know how much modding you could do with that. I miss the green/red/blue/orange leds in my Vogue.
try searching notify light apk in google see if it works

Yes,orange when charging,red=empty and green when 100% loaded!
But 2 weeks ago,I flashed a ROM and at this ROM, the LED blinked green when I received a message!
But can`t remember to this ROM

[Q] WM 6.1 issue with service and bluetooth LED

Transferred from General.
TP2 hacked a bit! Somehow disabled the flashing green service LED and the flashing bluetooth blue LED. Have orange and green charging LEDS, but no flashing LEDS.
Have done the usual HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\AllLEDMgr set index to 0 and this switches off all LEDs then back to 1 to enable.
Still no flashing service or bluetooth.
Searched forums and can only find ideas to turn them off, nothing about turning them on!
Any help please as spent many hours trying to find what registry value I have
corrupted\changed
Have looked through other posts, but no answers. Plenty of advice to turn them OFF, but nothing to turn them on when not working! Must be a hack somewhere as was originally working and do NOT want to do a hard reset.

Have sadly (more work) done a hard reset of the device, but STILL no flashing LEDS for service or bluetooth!
Can any ROM developer please give me a clue as really bugging me now, especially as the LEDs work in other functions

[pro] not. LED isnt flashing

hello community!
after register and see the video (i know im not special ) i have a problem with my german motorola pro from vodafone with stock froyo without root: the notification LED isnt flashing on new mails/messages,its permanent!
i tried blink and light flow lite from the market,im so used to different led notification from my blackberry.
did i break my phone somehow?is there a fix/solution?do i have to reflash it with a SBF file?
i used the search and looked up the specific motorola droid general forum,but didnt find anything (wrong search words,wrong forum?!)
so if i accidently open up a new thread to a known/fixiable bug,be gentle on the asskicking!
thanks in advance.

Warm welcoming mate.
Actually the led is a pain in arse for this phone.
Ask Moto how they got this stupid idea, that the Led would only work while your screen is off.
aka You got mails/missed calls while your screen is off, then you will get your led blinks, only.
So, no worries, nothing execlusively wrong for your phone, coz all our phones are too right to be wrong.
Not sure? Go to Blink again, test led with any colour and turn your screen off, you will see your led intact.
thnx for the reply!
the LED is working,not flashing but permanent on at missed events,thats "my problem".im glad that nothing is really broken or kinda like that.
but thanks anyway!
