Hi,
Back again after a long time. In an old post I asked about a tweek that would leave the LED lights on the bottom of my Tilt II while on external power.
Can you help me again. I just updated my ROM an lost that setting.
Many Thanks,
JimJep
You can look at all of your posts by clicking on your name and selecting find all posts.
That's how I found this for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5231341#post5231341
Edit: Okay, maybe you can't click on yur own name and find your own post, but you can click on someone elses name and find thier posts.
I'm sure in the user CP there is a way to find all of your own posts though.
I was wondering if there was a way to control the LEDs when you get a text? I think it'd be cool if the light blinked blue instead of that orange color when you get a notification (text, email, etc).

In user cp, its "show all statistics" on the right side of the screen. That give you options for show all posts, or threads started... or just click on the statistics tab in the user cp
I think the OP was referring to the hard key lights, not the notification light.

I'm looking for this too. I found something for have it always on, not only on AC. But, it is slow to wake up with it... So, I would also preffer to have it only on AC...
ps : the app was made by netripper... but, I don't remember the post, but it's the same person who make the overclock for TP2, topaz......

Hi guys,
Is there any reg hack to make the LED flash faster for notifications by changing the interval?
It really bugs me not being able to tell the difference between a notification and low battery level because they both flash the same colour
i too agree ..... any answers anyone?
here, here.
One of the features i miss that was on the prophet. The LED would flash at twice the rate for a message, so was easily spotted.
Glad im not the only one who would like this feature. It would be really nice if there was a way to do it.
Anyone?
the blinking is way too slow! sometime i have to stare at the phone for awhile to see the light to comfirms my pdaphone is ON.
Yeah i find myself doing that but to see if i have a new message/missed call etc. It's a shame nobody seems to know of a way to modify the speed at which it pulses

Forget that, to tell difference between bluetooth on and wifi on is a killer!
I was wondering if the reg settings from the wiki for custom notifications (flash led x seconds) is applicable? I haven't tried it, but thought if i said, flash for 5 seconds, it would be like a steady on for 5 seconds, off, on for 5 seconds?
What is the reg setting for custom notifications? The only key i can see mentioned in the Wiki is RingTone0 which is for incoming calls not for other notifications.

Oh. I thought that you could set that for all types of notifications individually.

It would be good if that was possible, but i don't think it is..?
bumping this thread; wondering if anyone has discovered a way yet?
I'd like to stop the service blinking LED (only blink for notifications) Any hacks out there? Yes, I searched...
BUMP BUMP!!
Cant belive that nobody found a solution.
Its really anoying that I can not check if a SMS arrived or bluetooth is switched on just by a short look.
The blinking frequenzy on my Hermes is 3 sec for the green (right) led and 6 sec. for the blue (left) led.
This is definitly too long.
PLS. post a solution!
Any sulution?
1)
I know there is a thread already existing: (General/Dev + Hacking: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=295729&highlight=hack+led+possible+on+wm6).
But its written that this is not stable, especialy when device is in standby mode.
2)
I remember there was a reg hack too to change a script which is responsible for controlling the leds. But this is only for ringtone, not for notifications! (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Registry)
I guess such a little (userfriendly) programm which can change frequency and colour of the LED´s for notifications would be very usefull to all.
Or even a registry hack would help.
Vijay555, if you read this: please help and enlighten us!
nobody ???
Ah -- all the developers hae now flocked to the Kaiser. it's the damned nature of the beast!
I think so too,
Everybdy is spending too much time with useless romcocking.
Comeon, such a hack would be really usefull!
No Answers?
I do agree, it would be VERY usefull.
Just adding to the pot of would like to have.
Is there a way to assign a certain color/pattern to a particular event?
Right now, I have no idea what the lights are indicating.
Anyone else have a better experience with this feature?
Also, I can't even see them cuz they are on the side! Can they get bright?
I believe there is, though I can't help you since I haven't got mine yet
I remember seeing a review where the guy was changing the status LED's. You sure it's not in the manual?
Yeah they are pretty crap, along with the panels and the 'charging via usb from a pc'!
Though I really like my Xperia alot, I have to admit that LED notifications are not very helpful. It's not possible to change them - they are predefined for a couple of events without any possibility to be modified.
Changing the LED's should be possible with PhoneAlarm. But I am still waiting for my X1, it is on the way, but therefore I can't tell you exactly.
if you want too see what the leds dothen why haven't you gone into start>settings>system illumination
it shows you!
I'm sure this feature is modable, then I'm 'officially' request an app to enable customizing LED illumination
I find them useful ... especially when the battery is running low.
ideally I just want something that flashes clearly to say I have a new message or glows red to say the battery is low.
The location and brightness of the leds is dreadful.
Leds 'are' for the night and muted sounds mode

AGREED .
If you look in the registry at 'HKCU/Software/SonyEricsson/Illumination' there are some hex codes for different alert. Maybe someone with the right know how could whip up a little prog to modify them. Of course he woule first need to figure out what combination of hex number coraspondsto what colour the lights flash and how long they stay on
I would have to say the LED's are a bit pointless for most notifications u do have to look at the display. I would say the fish are more useful in letting u know the battery is dead then the LED's....
HI guys.
Does anyone have any idea how to make control of the X1 illumination LEDs in normal state ?
Because to see the phone while it's in the dark or at night.
My last phone before Xperia X1 is SE W900i. The small LED at the side of it make me easily to identify my phone when it's in the dark especialy at night.
In summary, I need to keep the X1 illumination LED blink every time when the phone is ON.
This is just a small thing.
I've found something in registry editor at :HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SonyEricsson\Illumination\Patterns
Buy I dont know how to deal with it.
use XperiaTweak in options it has a possibility to manage leds
Xperiatweak will not give him the ability to have the LEDS always on.
What I suggest is you send yourself a text message or something and never open it.
I turned my whole ullumination off because I hated it at night. ^^
i find it usfull at night as i keep my phones volume low and just have to look at it to see if i have a missed anything or if its still charging
I'd love to see some registry entries which controls the leds. =)
it would be nice to make own patterns. why didn't they make the all the side en not at the top en end i like the leds and find them usefull.
I would absolutely love a function to stop power waste when your battery is low. Yes, i responded to the 'low battery' message already. No, i don't need flashing lights, buzzes or beeps to remind me and further waste the power. Request for Xperia Tweak to have a "disabled" setting in the LED lighting menus!

You can already do this via the built-in functions (no need for a tweak program at all)
Settings > System Tab > Illumination ... uncheck the "Enable illumination" box

I already done it, But the LED is disapear for no reason even when set at Sounds & Notifications to put it on for no limited time.
Also, it would be really cool if:
- The leds are creating ambi-light for your movies.
- The leds as a visualizer for my music..
i would looooveeee to have my LEDs read out my sms using morse code.....
Hmm.. But seriously.. I'd love if I could have the leds pulsate like "low battery" but in purple or green color when idle.
I'm also interested in this, just wish i knew where to start lol

well would there be a way of making the led's act as a service light? like on the 8925 and 8525 they both would have a led light that blinks when you had service.
I'm also looking for a way of changing led colors in the registry
Hi,
The led in htc hero blinks for only 5 minutes after a e-mail is received (and not checked). This is awfully, since the whole point is check thru the led if any event was missed. The ppc has a registry hack to make the led blinks to infinite (or till you check the message), so, any workaround for hero?
Thanks.
PS: We already don't have colored leds, and now this, very disappointed with HTC.
Sell your phone then.

This doesn't quite resolve the issue, as this program doesn't use the trackball LED, but instead uses the green LED in the speaker. Also, it doesn't have settings for emails, which it seems andreofgyn would like.
When I get some time, I will do some digging around and see if I can find the trackball settings in the system. There's a good chance it will require a rooted phone to adjust the setting. I'm working on a custom bootscreen atm, once, I've got that sorted out, I'll look into this.
EDIT: Alright, maybe andreofgyn wasn't referring to the trackball LED. I just realized that when the Hero gets an email, the speaker-LED is actually the one that blinks, and not the trackball like all our other notifications.
Myself, I'm more concerned with the trackball LED for missed calls and text messages only lasting 5 minutes, so that's probably what I'll look into first. If people want to provide feedback about specific LED's (eg. would you like the trackball LED for emails, or is the speaker LED ok?) then I can see what I can find.
Okay E-Mail isn´t supportet but SMS and call. Is it difficult to make a option more for E-Mail?
The trackball isn´t support from any programm. By example Handcent SMS has got a option, but it doesn´t work. HTC release a developer kit, but nothing work yet. So when you will make it, I say thank you!

Yeah, I was refering to "speaker-LED", but if you can do unlimited flash with the trackball LED, it's good too. Missed Reminder is a good app, but like craig0r said, no e-mail reminders.
I have a rooted phone and can test anything. Thanks for all good will answers

Hi,
Thats an interesting one...I have no idea (until now I was a WM user), but I would be glad to kwno how to increase the timeout. Shouldn't it be locked to the display timeout? Would make sense in my opinion...

Bump......
What about setting the LEDs up to show notifications for new messages, new emails, missed calls, etc.?
Bump.......
This is nothing about development... please post in General instead of Development forum, you'll find your answer faster there next time.
oh really? i would say a) editing core android files is development and b) am i really getting advice from a noob?
There's this... Blinker - Button LED Notification
Still early days, but if he's got direct control over those buttons he might be able to change the timeout, and the app answers zyborg's post in any case.
I shall ask him.

I can't find the timeout... I guess its the same timeout like for the Lockscreen 5000ms.
I could only do a workarround, something like everytime when the light turns off... my app turns it on. But thats a little bit dirty ;-)
I imagine that this will not be easy, as there is a development thread over in the SGS forum about Back Light Notifications (BLN).
It can only be achieved through flashing a modified kernel - and as I understand it, the dev tried many different methods to get it to work until deciding on the current method.
