I know there are apps and small reg edits that you can use to shut off LED's. My question is...... is there anyway to control the LED's? The specific thing I want to do is turn the green LED on the right off and have the blue flash in its place, also come on when the unit is charging.
Hey you guys, Ive recently upgraded to WM6.1, something like My green clean version from vincent. Although its running fine Ive just looked that the lights of buttons, calling and end calling as the windows keys and OK button are gone, i mean i have no led lights on the keyboard. Is this an option u can activate/deactivate? tks in advance^^
That is a known problem, just get one of the newer roms, such as the one in my siggy.
Hi everybody,
Question: I'd like the backlight from the keyboard to be always on when loading, or most ideally: to have manual control over it. Right now the only control there is, is the setting 'Light Sensor Enable', but this turns it only on for some period of time. Usefull to save batterypower, but when on AC (like at night in the car) I really find it annoying to have to press whatever button in order to get the keyboard lit.
Anyone knows a solution for this, or can write a small program to handle it? Or change values via Regedit?
Found another thread here about keyboard backlight, but there it didn't work at all.

I like to read in bed and often my wife falls asleep before I do. I can dim the screen without any trouble, but any time a physical control is activated (trackball, volume rocker, etc) the lights in the lower portion of the phone where the controls are light up REALLY bright.
Is there a setting or app to shut it off?
Are you talking about the keys?

Hi,
Go to Settings > Sound and Display > Notification Flash.
You can disable the trackball flash for certain notifications or you can disable them all and have the trackball flash disabled completely.

But he means the keys' lights. Will this also turn that off?? I know the title of the thread is a bit misleading
Turning the trackball notification off seems to stop the screen and button lights from coming on.
I've just disable the trackball notification for text messages, set my phone in standby and sent myself a text from another phone. The notification sound played but nothing at all lit up on the phone.
Disabling the notifications don't seem to have an effect. Every time I touch the trackball or any other button, the light right up
I also find the backlight of the keys on HTC hero pretty annoying. I can't believe that it's impossible to disable that damn light. There are only 6 buttons and trackball, are they really think that we aren't capable to use them properly?
I don't see what the problem is.
And my trackball doesn't actually light up unless I get a notification of some sort.
Just pressing any button doesn't make it light up at all.
So what exactly is the problem?

I don't know about European Hero, but on the Sprint's one, any time you're pressing a key or the trackball, backlight lightens up. It's damn annoying, and I don't know how to get rid of it.
First of all, I'm not a vampire. I don't often use my phone in the dark. And besides, there is always enough of ambient light from the screen.
So. My questions to HTC guys.
- Why the damn, stupid light?
- How could we disable it?
- And where is our firmware update?
The light is extremly nice :-D I love it, when you are in some loud places and your phone is not in your pocket you can see it light up :-D
If you don´t want that, just downgrade to a 1.8 firmware; there is a bug that the trackball won´t light up, well the firmware is freaking slow though.
BTW: An option to disable the light would be cool (there could be some scenarios where it´s not good to light up).

So, I'd have assumed that this is the software issue not hardware.
Now I'm sure. So it could be disabled somehow.
But how?

Thats one of the things I like about the Sprint Hero. I wish my Telus Hero Trackball would light up every time it was touched. It is an easy way to light up the buttons in the dark.
i have a real quick question...on my sgs2 i had smart screen off...just wave or tap and the screen can be turned off or on...really worked just fine and saved my hardware buttons...i can download and install the same type of apps on my sgs3 but i noticed the infrared light stays on with some of the apps...my question is: is this ok to do?..i dont want to break or put excessive wear on any parts of my brand new phone and just concerned if the light staying on is an issue and if its a battery issue? thanks in advance...:cyclops:
