Just the way he cooled his rom, nothing wrong with the led, it won't show charging till you hit 90%, then it'll show the green charge light however.

I don't think it was a coding option I think that's a Gingerbread thing.

Well, not specifically a Gingerbread issue, but the fact that because it's AOSP, it's not built specifically for the Evo and thus hasn't been coded to use the Evo's LEDs.
That's how I see it at least.

Whats the story with the notification light(s)?

Changing the colour of the trackpad light?
Changing the colour of the (and using) the charging light?
What ROMs let me do this? (MIUI, CM6, Sense based)
I know there were threads ages ago, but I don't know what to search. And the info will be old.
The trackpad light is white, you can't change it. The LED near the top is either green or amber.
I use the "LED Me Know" app from the Market to control which one I want to flash etc. Don't know which custom ROMs handle it natively.
The stock Sense ROM flashes the trackpad light if you set it, but only every 10 secs or so.

I thought people had claimed that you could change the trackpad light like the N1... And that the top LED had colours of a mix of red and green.
I couldn't have been wronger.
Cheers for the answer though!
It's undiscovered yet
Although they're the only 'stock' colours which will show ;D

Led me know enables you to select;
red,green and white trackpad. Not sure about amber though, it appears red to me
.....didn't the G1 also displayed the default colours untill someone found a hack to enable multi coloured LED?

ok, well that looks like amber to me, not red. I think we're talking about the same thing. So the LED can be either off, green, or amber/red (depending on your colour perception).

Are you sure ?
My version of LED Me Know (the latest, as far as I'm aware), lets me select either an amber, green or "trackpad" notification. i.e. the amber and green ones are for the light by the speaker grille, and the trackpad light doesn't have a colour selection (it's only white).

Not sure about any other roms... but in the stock rom if you let the battery get critical (lol... less than 5% I think) it will flash pure red every 5 seconds or so. There's no way I'm confusing it for amber. Its clearly red.
Also: if amber is a combo of red and green, then the green led is not running at 100% while displaying red. It would have to be something like 100% red power, 60% green power. Reason? Download the app "Covedev Design" and enable amber, then green as well. You can clearly see the led change color slightly.

Does CM not have options for this ?
You can also download the free app "Led Me Know" from the Android market.

We have the option for green and amber. I mean to try and make the colors different. Like they did whith the G1 same with the trackpas. If anyone can find a hack to make it change colors altho that one seems impossible considering its one perm. Color.

[Q] Charging bug MIUI 2.2.10

If I try to charge my ph in wall socket from powered off... it enters b/l rather than charging!?
I like to charge ph from powered off ^^ otherwise no biggie
Could this be 2.2.10 feature? -=or=- is it bug?
Resolutions welcome
T.I.A
Defy phones dont charge when they are off... you need to keep it on while its charging.
So there is no bug, its just trying to boot.

I charge my phone plenty while its off. It gives me a nice little battery image with a percentage in the middle. the liquid in the battery goes up based on %. It might be an MIUI thing. I cant comment on that.
hmm, thats some funky stuff going on then... try a new rom

Where you running Faux's kernel?
Can you hold down the Vol +/- and then plug in your USB cable? If it is a red blinking light then I think it's a battery issue not supplying power to your motherboard.

This happened to me today. The battery indicator is incorrect, and shuts down before notifying you sometimes.
Phone shut down on me randomly and wouldn't turn back on today. Plugging into the wall didn't help. It was only when I plugged it into my PC and let it charge for 5 minutes that it came back. Scary bug.

No need to type in bold...
Faux is a developer who is putting together a new kernel for our device, basically it allows one to modify the 'engine' of our phone.
I think the consensus here is there is a manufacturing defect in your phone and a lot of other phones. It seems like this issue is connected to running a custom kernel but there are reports of 100% stock phone bricking (like yours)
It's time to call up google, nothing we can do from here.

I thanked you on accident, you didn't deserve it. There is no evidence that his phone is bricked, a user above reported the same thing happening and how he resolved it.
Also, he can type in bold if he wants to.
I hope the OP issue gets resolved. Wish you all the best buddy!
I'm having the same issue. Except this happened when I pulled the device new out of the box. Can't even get it to stay on long enough to get into bootloader mode. :-/ RMA time
Good luck on fixing the problem.

Is there anyway to use the charging LEDs as a notification led?

Title pretty much says it all, I figure this would be a kernel level thing, and I know it's not a big light but I kinda like the notification led. It would work at least a little.

I don't think it is a kernel thing... You see, the tablet charges when completly shut down. I think that fact tells us that the led light is completely disconnected from kernels, roms, etc , it may be only connected to the battery itself. All the devices with led that showed charging automatically turned on when I connected them to a power source.
Another thing that makes me think this is the fact that most devices don't have such light, and by that reason early CM ROMs (alphas that still have nothing from the device implemented) should mess up with the lights, which never happened (I tried all CM versions for this tablet, I bought and unlocked it still on ICS).
Then again I might me wrong... Lets wait for other opinions. I would like to have it too!

you know i didnt think about that, you're absolutely right, It could be connected to the battery and the fact that it did work in the alpha's when nothing was implemented probably means its not even in the rom.
i've looked for some alternatives in the play store, the was one called no led, which is an interesting concept but i couldn't figure it out. notification icons

Display problem when charging

Hi i have the latest cm-10.1-20130901-NIGHTLY-find5.zip and I have problems when charging while powered off: The display stays on while charging and the telephone overheats. Are there any fixes?
Best Regards ngt

Have you seen if this is a problem with other users? I'm using PAC ROM and have the same result with the screen being lit to a black screen when powered off and charging. I'm checking now to see if it overheats. It may be(and probably is) the screen on and charging at the same time that is causing it to heat up like that. My suggestion is to not charge while powered off if you can help it. A little warm is ok, but these quad-core phones can cook when that CPU is going.. I've felt mine to the point of needing to power it off with usage in the sun making it unbearably hot. And if it's getting HOT HOT.. than yeah.
3 things you can do.
1.Charge with phone powered on.
2.Go back to stock ROM where this was not an issue.
3.Work with the devs to try and figure out what is causing it. Be prepared to provide a logcat if the problem can't be reproduced on their end.
My phone has been charging off for about 10 minutes now and it still feels a little cool to the touch. Battery is 100% full. Not sure if that makes a difference. I'll keep in on charge for another 10. I'll update this post in a little bit.
**UPDATE** Its been on the charger for 30 minutes.. no heat increase. Note* I'm running PAC ROM AOSP ROM.
Batteries always get hot if you use them while they are charging. This is slightly harmful to the battery too, but if it only happens once or twice I wouldnt worry about it.
All AOSP roms on this device so far are afflicted by this problem. Just turn your phone on first and as soon as you see the boot logo you can plug it in. You'll get used to it.
