Sorry for that, sure- The LED Notification colors are now changed to multiple colors if you look closely, they aren't green or red anymore, pretty limited but still kinda cool.
You may have to watch it full screen to get the full effect.
As i was in need to charge to my phone, i also had noticed the LED light for charging was different as well! This is really cool...check it out
well can someone tells us how we can make this happen???
not really sure yet, my friend who had done this to my phone hasn't been around, ill find out asap
This is pretty cool but I think its worthless to post if your not asking how to do it or showing us how to do it. But great hack!

That's for the right-side LED... the video in this thread shows the colors changing on the left-side LED. It would be really nice to be able to control both, set different colors for different notifications, etc.
Yeah I had that since winmo 5 lmao

Hmm well since your not sure what exactly your friend installed I'm ruling out the possibility of it being an app, The other way I think of how he doing that is figure out what file governs the led color change it's probably an edit.

If it is an app then finding out how it's done would be even easier, all he has to do is post screenshots of the apk's in his /system/app folder.
I'm pretty sure we have confirmed that the physical LED can only do two colors, red and green. So it must be a hardware hack.
Not sure how to install it on the evo
Check this thread out if you want to physically change your led's to blue or completely different color..this requires taking evo apart and and swapping the led's if you feel confident enough..I remembered seeing this thread and thought I'd post it.

look at the picture
Because the human eye can not see, the camera can see; so we did not find
HD2 two sensors, one of which only work only answer the phone, but when it does not stop at the android! I think this will lead to a waste of electricity.
Sorry, I do not speak English, can only use GOOGLE translation.
uh...... yha.......?

这不是一个个例!因为人眼不能看到,要用相机才能看到!
HD2听筒旁边有两个感应器,一个用于感光,一个用于接近人脸时关闭屏幕.
在WM6.5下,只有接听电话时"接近人脸时关闭屏幕"这个感应器才会发光.而在andoird下有一个是不关闭的!

This is not a one example! Because the human eye can not see, to use the camera to see!
HD2 handset next to the two sensors, one for light-sensitive, one for close to face to close the screen.
In WM6.5, only answer the phone "off screen when close to the face" of this sensor will light. But one under the andoird not closed!

非常感谢你!!!!!!
What he likely is saying is that the led of the proximity sensor is on all the time in android while it is only lit in WM during a phonecall. If that is true, it is a potential battery drainer. With a camera you can see the infrared light, that is why he posted the piccas. Might be a serious issue, but I did not verify.
I don't think this is an issue as such, as infrared viewed with a camera is white... In them photo's, it's a vague red. I could be wrong though. Think this might need some dev input.
To prove the point, get a camera, and TV remote, and point and press a button of the remote to the camera. You will see it glow white !
hd2 orginal have two sensors but in the android onlyone work ! why?

In wm6.5, it will only listen to the phone work. But in android, regardless of when the are working.

你不要说英文!
HD2运行andoird时,有一个传感器一直在工作,发出光! 而这个传感器在wm6.5的情况下,只会在接听电话时才会工作!
这个传感器发出来的光人眼看不到,只能用摄像头才能看到! 可能因为这个原因所以一直没有人发现.
如果你能翻译一下的话就更好了! 让这里的高手们知道这个问题! 这个BUG会一直浪费电! GOOGLE的翻译不行!

ggguuuys!!!!
GSM guy is right, use a camera and point it at the sensor you will find the white light blinking while in android, where as in WINMO it doesnt, it blinks during calls only!!!
Could be a battery drainer, could be not as well !!!
lets hope hope the devs are aware of this !!!

Didn't mean to start an argument or anything, all I meant was going by his pictures, I couldn't really see much of the 'white' infrared you normally see in a camera.
But you say that it blinks, that would make more sense now - I have no way of testing it until I get home as i'm at work at the moment
cool man, try it out and let us know, its a good topic for discussion

It don't matter!
I know that this pictures is easy to suggest that it is false.
I just want to let developers know this BUG.
I'm home now, and i've tested it... And your right, the infrared is on in Android, and off in WM except when your making a call.
What i've forgot to test, is the infrared still on when the screens off in Android ?
I can't test at the moment as i'm currently putting a new WM ROM on, and then a new Android build on.
gsm127 - Them pictures aren't misleading. What I thought was infrared looks white through a camera, but it's not - It's actually a shade of purple (Like in your photos). Only thing is, is the infrared is on, and pulses every second. That also happens in Android !
Has anybody pointed this out to the dev's ? Do they read these sections ?

Is there a led that a dev can eventually get to work as a notification led? Or is there simply no led built into the phone that will work. This is a very crappy issue for us NS owners that came from the N1, I miss my trackball lighting up from across the room and knowing wether or not it was a txt or an email etc..
Will the NS ever have this? Or is it simply not going to happen?

A) Wrong section.
B) Answered in the stickied FAQ in the right section:
unremarked said:
Q: There's no LED Indicator? What are those two circles next to the speaker?
Correct, like all Samsung devices(minus the Epic 4G on Sprint) thus far, there is no LED indicator light. There are apps, such as NoLED, on the marketplace which work great on the Nexus S and provide more or less the same functionality. Those two circles are the Proximity Sensor and Ambient Light sensor.

Not really the wrong forum if it were something that could be developed. It would have been a request for something to be developed. Regardless, I guess we are just stuck without an led light. NO LED blows compared to the trackball on the N1

There's literally nothing to be developed, mate. There is physically no LED light in this phone unless you wanted to open her up and install one yourself.

Yea, that is the unfortunate news i was figuring I would get. So is no led the only app that does this though?

Splitting hairs there, bro.
And yes, I'm sure the.. er.. I'm blanking on the name of the app that will use the buttons as notifications will come around once a custom kernel has been developed to support it.
not sure why we need ANOTHER thread about the LED (or lack of). do a SEARCH!
Closed, as this is answered in the FAQ.
When i have googled i have found SLCD screens actually consume power blocking bright light...Hence bright wall papers ect are advised rather than dark wallpapers which are recommended for AMOLED.
Is That right???
And my question is i have an SLCD version so using apps like Screen Filter drains more battery??
So, after getting no answer for a full mind-blowing 75 minutes, you decided to be impatient and post your question again. And in the wrong place to boot.
That somewhat makes me regret giving you an sincere answer in the first and right location.

i wasnt sure where to post it....i think i hav posted it the second time coz i havnt got any replies yet...or if it has been after u replied then probablly i havnt seen it...
no offence at all.....
An LCD uses the exact same amount of power whether displaying all white or all black.
AMOLED uses more power displaying all white than all black.
sorry, where is the other post on this question?

Why wouldn't you want useful things?
Out of curiosity, which tablets do have notification LEDs? I've tried searching but it's come up vague.
i've yet to see any tablet with an LED.
It's not needed as much on a tablet as on the phone with missed calls and texts.
NoLED should suffice just fine. And NoLED combats burn-in by having an option to move the notification around so it's never using the same pixel for long.
ive had noled on all s1 and s2 and s3 and i have never had any problems with it and now they have themes!!

I always wished I could just look over without picking it up, to tell if I had something.
NoLED is really only for OLED screens, on an IPS it will run your battery bone dry in double time
Notification lights for things like Gmail, Facebook, Twitter
My HP Touchpad has an LED...
Idea, is it not possible to make a costum ROM with a function, "use screen as notification LED"?
I do not mind that there is no LED. I have a U20I thats runs so slow, that any replacement for android gaming is good for me .
My current tablet has capacitive keys and I use backlight notifications, so not having BLN will take a little getting used to.

NoLED has an option to not turn the screen on when the proximity sensor is "close", so you can just keep the tablet face down when it's not on the charger.

You don't need a custom ROM. NoLED will do what you want.
