Hi,
My question is about the LED cover, not the LED View Cover. the one which has leds at the back.
Is there any tool / method to to make custom image/icon for this cover's leds ?
thanks.
I doubt that...
The reviews for it say there is no customization available.
pity...
anyway to have it stay on without flipping the phone on it's face?

Ok, flame away because this is probably posted elsewhere in the forum but I promised I searched and don't see it.
On my HTC Wizard (T-Mobile MDA) the 'messaging' app button has 3 white triangles and one dark triangle that I would swear looks like it's an LED light down there. Can anyone confirm this and advise if there are programs to take advantage of it? Mine has never lit up (assuming it is a light at all!)
In the end, I'd love if I could route the 'notification' smart key to a light up there for new mail so I stop losing my 'calendar' button all the time.
Thanks!
bump...
Ok, so nobody knows about this? Or am I just on crack and the only one who things that right black triangle on the mail envelope looks like a light?
LOL!
Ur seeing the light from the notification LEDS. I guess its probably reflecting off the PCB inside and coming thru the messaging button.
I hate to burst your bubble but it's not a light. My first phone had the dark corner but the second and third did not. And there are plenty of pix of the inside of the thing, you can see for yourself.
I tried looking in the forum for any info on the status LED next to the speaker on the front side but I don't see any posts on this. Is this LED supposed to flash or do something? On my HD it has never worked? Is it supposed to work?
I remember on my Artemis it would flash green for good reception, blue for bluetooth and red if the battery was low.

I may be wrong but i was under the impresion that this was a sensor rather than a LED.
No, that's entirely correct, it is the light sensor. The LED is in the power button.
the status led is on the power button on the top right hand side of the blackstone...the place u highlighted is a sensor as what scotia has point out..
I think that it is a proximity sensor used to blank screen when you put the phone on your ear to talk.
It's actually the light sensor used for when you have automatic display brightness enabled. When it's dark, it turns down the brightness... And when it's a sunny day it cracks it up. I am not sure whether it's used to blank the screen during a call... This seems to happen after a period of time has elapsed.

ok thanks for the info.
So does the power LED on the top side flash any color to show the status of the reception or does it only light up orange when it charges?
Thanks.
doesn't do anything for reception..although mine flashes green hen I have a message/email/reminder
pity though, a decent LED to show such things was probably high on everyone's wishlist
No, the HD is perfectly unobtrusive. On my last PDA the LED had to be tweaked to stop flashing.
Too bad this isnt a LED diode Since I got on my Diamond a light notification (on the bottom of device)... when I recieved new sms... now on HD there is no way I can figure do I have new sms or notification unless I turn the screen on. The only hardware flaw by mine opinion
When its lying down, I agree with you. Then I have to turn on the screen. However when its lying next to me I'm usually not in a place were I can't use my phone, so the sound is on anyway.
I actually think its quite good the LED is on the top, it's easelly visible when the phone is in my pocket. I just have to pull the phone up a little and look down to see the LED (no need to get it out and turn the screen on). I like it on the top, nice and discreet, and not anoying me when I'm looking at the device while using it.
Perhaps a combination would be nice? Front and top That would sattisfy most people I guess...
I have a CDMA Hero from sprint in the US and am wondering if it has dual LED notification lights. I have read in lots of places that it does but am wondering if it actually has dual LED since my notifications only light up the left side. From the dash 3G I remember that the LED on the left was an LED and the one on the right side that looked like an LED was actually the light sensor. I also know that the Hero is supposed to have a light sensor. Just curious, thanks for any help.
::crosses fingers and hopes for Dual LED::
I think (I don't have a Hero yet, I'm just going off the online documentation for it), that the trackball acts as the second indicator "LED", but there isn't one on the right side of the earpiece, only the left. The trackball flashes when you have an incoming call or a notification.
sounds like it's the other way round from the GSM one then...the GSM has the LED on the right and the light sensor on the left.
no Dual LED's
I also have a sprint hero. The left led is the only one that flashes. It doesn't change color either. And the track ball does light up if u turn it on in the settings. As for the second led on the top right, it is definitely the light sensor. U can test it for yourself by putting your finger over it, and watch the screen dim.....
the one on the right is the light sensor.. cover it and it goes dim.

The LED on the left will change color and flashing pattern depending on your battery life and whether you have notifications or not. No notifications, no light (at least from what I've seen). If you're low on battery, the light goes yellow, and if you're within the 10-15 min boundary or less for battery life, light blinks red.
Thanks for all your help and I didnt realize that I had auto backlight disabled must have done that the first day I was messing with it all, I see now how the sensor reacts to having a finger over it. I would have enjoyed dual LEDs up top but oh well. Any way to customize the color of notifications, tried the handcent but it doesnt affect the LED at all or the trackball light for that matter. Going to try missed call or sms popup later to see if I can get some better results.

I read somewhere the flashing trackball doesn't work on our CDMA Hero
That would make sense since I can't seem to get my trackball to flash, what a bummer. Hopefully we can get root or a software fix soon.
T-Mobile DASH 3G Led Indicator Lights
I have a T-Mobile Dash 3G. The left LED light is NOT flashing, and I would prefer that it does. I upgraded to WM 6.5 and I think that is what disabled the LED since I have seen videos on youtube where the indicator does flash.
The LED does glow orange and green when i am charging though.
Err I think you may have the wrong forum. This is for the HTC Hero, which runs Android not WM. Why not try starting your own thread in the correct Forum as you are more likely to get an answer there?
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
I asked same question here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=822818
but if i look @ some pictures found on review sites , i see in the top right corner to leds ( i think) what are these for then ?
Pretty sure that they are light sensors not LEDs.
I got the Focus yesterday and there is no LED notification. Easily my biggest gripe with the phone.
Hello.
Actually I am very satisfied with my device. The only thing I don't understand is why the two LED lights never do anything.... I can't find any options in the settings about it. Does it not have this function or where can I find it?
Thanks in advance.

What LED lights? I have a Tab A 2019 SM-T510 and there aren't any LEDs. And I can't imagine why it would need any.
I mean those 2 points on the top. On mobile phones they indicate with blinking leds when you for example received a message, or when its battery is empty... For what are they then???
On the front there is the selfie camera and a light detector. No LEDs.
On the back thre is the other camera and flash.
If there are actually leda, these are leds not used by software and of course, hardware is useless unless they have software to use it.
