LED notofication - Droid Pro General

Hello at all,
How does the LED notofication work on your device?
I use K9-Mail. there I have the option to set LED notification on. But nothing happens.
It should work for SMS (handcent) and K-9 (E-Mail)...
Is there a way to fix this?

hm, seems that it blinks 2, 3 times and thats it... what is the benefit of the light which blinks 0,8 seconds?!

next funny thing:
device is in standby, mail delivers, it rings, vibrates and the LED blinks 2 times. Then I reactivate the phone and the LED blinks one more time...
Is it such a big problem to get such basic function works. We have now Android Version 2.2 on the phone. so they had enogh time to develop this... or is this a problem ob Motorola...?

Mhh I never saw it being a problem. Whenever theres a mail, message, missed call it blinks green to a set timing. On WhatsApp, you have the possibility to set it to any colour you want. That only works if you have your phone rooted.. so that way, my phone now blinks purple for a WhatsApp message.
By the way... sometimes when u have a message and you turn the display off/lock it without reading it, then theres one longer led blink but then goes back to the normal pattern, I guess just to remind you before you put the phone away that there is actually an event that u missed. Theres a program called "Blink" on the AppsMarket where you can customize a colour for every event... if thats something you are looking for ?

Yellow led always on... Jam's bug?

Hi guys!
Sometimes on my Jam the yellow led is always on...
I'm sure to not have message to read or active appointments...
The only workaround is to do a softreset! :-(
FOr example:
yesterday the led was green... an appointment reminder appens with sound notification (dinner from 20 to 23).
The PDA was turned off but the notification ring sound and the led became yellow. The display was still off.
I turn the pda on and I see the bell symbol on the bottom right corner.... I tap on it and I see the reminder for my appointment.
After that the led don't becomes green!
I tryed to show the appointment in the calender ecc... but the led was stilll yellow.
I'm not expert and I thinked that the led will be green after the 23pm when my appointment will be ended...
This morning the led was still f..... yellow!!!
I made soft reset and now it's ok but I don't understand why!
How does the reminder notifications works?
Are you using phonealarm or alarmtoday?
I've noticed sometimes the only way to cancel the yellow led is to load the sms/email app (ie check your messages), regardless of what caused the yellow led, and whether or not you have a new message.
Anyone concur?

I installed PohoneAlarm but i removed it and now I'm usign PPCProfilePro...
I've noticed the led anomalies and the only cure I've come up with is to soft reset.
whenever the yellow gets stuck i go to settings->sounds & notifications
then click on notification tabs then sounds tab then notification tab again..
that should bring back the green led

I remember that! :lol: 8)
The bug must be from windows mobile. If you, when getting a notification popup, tap a button and hold it until the LED did blink once again and then release the button, the bug shouldn't appear. The solution I use is to restrict the blinking to a certein time period, I think you can set it to 90 minutes or something. I use PocketZenPhone to set this. Therefore, whenever this bug appears, it's gone after 90 minutes.

LED blinking (under sounds and notifies (or whatever in ENGL

hello there..
under PREFERENCES/SOUNDS&NOTIFIES (or hwatever in ENGL. cause my Win is GER here
i can set sounds and vibration and even a blinking LED....
right?
i understand that so, that for example if i miss a call or if there is a new sms it blinks yellow instead of green as usual...
BUT it would be reasonable if it blinks different till i notice that new thing.
BUT it blinks so long until the time is up that i chose in the preferences.... that is stupid... so it blinks longer, even when i recognised the missed call or the new message....
any comments of you to this topic???
thx in advance!
The 'FLASH LIGHT FOR' is your screen flickering

Notification acting up

Please excuse my noob question. I tried to search but didn't find an answer.
My Cingular 8525 with the latest official WM5 ROM has started acting up. It seems to think there is a notification present. It blinks the LED in yellow and sporadically makes the sound currently programmed for new voicemails. If I afterwards I get a valid notification (e.g. missed call), and I clear that notification, then the LED blinks green and the phone behaves normally.
If I soft-reset the phone, a few seconds after the green Windows Mobile screen displays, the phone vibrates and plays the sound. It keeps playing the sound and vibrating every few seconds for a while, blinking the yellow LED (the phone is fully charged). I don't see any other notifications on the screen. After a while it sometimes stops playing the sound, but the LED keeps blinking yellow. The playing of the sound occurs at longer intervals if you just let the phone sit. Only if another valid notification occurs and is then cleared does the blinking LED turn green.
I haven't installed any new software recently. It just started doing it on its own. I can't pinpoint any event that started this. It seems to be activated early during the boot process, before the normal WM5 Today screen comes up.
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?

Thanks!
I couldn't find how to delete notifications with the trial version of SKtools, probably because it only shows 6 entries of things it finds wrong in demo mode, but I was able to use MemMaid. Seems like a good program so I may buy it.
There were a few duplicates, but the problem persists after removing them. Same symptoms as before.
I hope the official WM6 comes out soon. I don't want to hard reset my phone until then.
What I don't understand is that getting some notification (e.g. a missed call) will result in the phone going back to normal. Also, the sound/vibration that it makes stops after a few minutes, only the blinking yellow LED remains until clearing another notification makes things go back to normal.

led notification

For the owners : Does this device have a led notification?
For example , when you have a sms/missed call... Is there a led blinking to see if there is a missed call?
I dont wanna turn on the device to check that
yes there is a Mod for that, i was asking t he same question couple of days a go and i found the answer by googling it and guess what! i found it in this forum
but honestly i can't remember which forum or what i typed in google.
but it works well, when i have a missed call or message, the capacitive buttons lit but don't blink...
The green led blinks on a missed call, but has no other type of notifications. Not emails, SMS, tweets or Facebook messages. Red for low battery, green for missed calls.

pfff , and there is no setup to let it also blink on a SMS?
So now you NEED to turn on the device to see if you have an sms if you have the phone on silent?
Is there an option to vibrate every 10 min or something when a sms is received?
Yup, abit disappointed you can't turn it on for SMS/Email, but it's better than no visual alerts at all.
I think the best bit abit this phone is that it's few shortcomings are mostly in the software, which can be easily updated... *crosses fingers*
i've noticed that when you receive an sms, the phone vibrates (in my case, i only use viberation mode), and as soon you get the phone out of your pocket the screen turns on.
At first i tought I made the mistake to accidently press the power button while getting it out of my pocket, but afterwards when i took extra care the screen comes on when you take it out, it doesn't unlock tho.
