is it just my htc evo 3d that that status light stays on when I receive a message and it wont turn off?
It will turn off after like 10 minutes or so. That's if you are talking about the notification light.

Hello I am new to xDA and I'd like to say I am really impressed. With everything. From roms. Apps.themes.mods ect . Very impressed with gsb it is a incredible rom. My Droid Eris is awesome now although I am experiencing a small issue....when my phone. Is charging and I receive a txt and my led notification. Flashing green to tell me I got a text it will stop charging until I clear notificatin or read txt....how do I fix this?
Hmm, I noticed thw other day that the red 'charging' led stops when a notification (green) comes in. But I assumed that charging continued. Haven't had an opportunity to test it out.
Most of my led notifications are set to white (trackball) but I must have missed one. The Tball led works fine while charging last I checked.

Charging stops when green notification flashes indicating I received a txt ànd stops my phone from charging. I did a complete wipe and reflashed gsb but still does it. My trackball don't seem to notify me of a txt

You need to go into settings->CyanogenMod settings->Interface->LED Notifications->Miscellaneous and choose the apps for which you want trackball notifications (by changing the flash color to white).
I'll have to try this. You are 100% sure that charging is stopped when this happens? The battery icon on the status bar stops showing charging? Settings->About phone->Status->Battery status shows "Not charging"?

Ok, I just changed my text messaging notifications to green, sent myself a text while it was charging, and it continued to charge.
Anyway, you can use the instructions in my last post to change all of your apps to white to get trackball flash, if that's what you want.
Hey man ur the best, worked perfectly! Awesome.
Another question....my camera has a crazy delay when I push to take a pic and. Eveñ the slightest movement. Causes a blur...is this fixable? Also my keyboard does a period at random and doès the long press function on its own resulting in characters. Such as some of the ones in this post as u can. Seé
I just noticed the same thing. The Orange LED turns off while charging when I get a text. But it turns back on the instant i press the red power button to wake my phone up to check it. I do not actually need to check the message.
I am sure it remains charging during this, but there is no way to check because it turns back on as soon as I activate the screen.

Yes, when I checked this earlier I had it plugged into a charger that turns off when the Eris stops drawing power (i.e., hits 100% charge). When I received a text and the LED was changed, it continued to charge. That's how I knew it was fine.
I like having the notification LED. I've customized it with Light Flow and it works great. The only issue is that the LED doesn't do anything when the screen is on. Is there any way to get the notification LED to work when the screen is on?
Might I ask why you need it on constantly? Is it just for looks?

Yes there is, and your half way there. In LightFlow, general settings, check compatibility mode, check run as root. The light will stay on now even when the screen is on. The trade off is you only have 3 colors now.
I don't want it on constantly. I just always want it to blink when I get an Call/SMS/email, even when the screen is on.
And thanks for the info, WiredPirate. I guess I can take away the Battery Charge colors so I just have SMS, Gmail, and Missed Call.
Okay, now I have a new issue. The Compatibility Mode Light Flow notifications work just how I want them to...until the phone is plugged in. When the phone is on the charger, the notification LED ignores Light Flow and reverts to the default notification colors (green for charging, white for missed call, cyan for SMS, and yellow for Gmail). Is there any way to get Light Flow to take over when the phone is plugged in? Or am I out of luck here?
And now I'm confused. So, disregarding Light Flow, the Atrix's notification LED only works when the phone is plugged in and charging? That's stupid.
so for some reason the blue led showing that I have a new message is staying lit up... I have no new messages though... any clue why?

I do not know why it would stay on, but does the issue persist after a reboot?
EDIT: Also, is it SOLID or blinking?
The light is solid. rebooting, rebooting, rebooting.... it does NOT persist after a reboot... this is not the first time I have noticed it, just the first time I have noticed it where I could post and ask about it... but once I recieve a new text message, it will come on solid. Once I read it it seems to be staying on solid after that. but only when I turn off the screen. if I wake the phone the light goes off...
Ninja Edit... just uninstalled handcent and am back to using the stock Messenger app... prefer the black background I had in handcent, but so far the light hasnt got stuck on yet.... and now it is green for a new message instead of blue.... Hmm... as long as it works I guess right?
As long as it works.

After trying all of the popular SMS apps, I too have found my phone just works better with the stock messaging app. Go figure!
Are you using Light Flow?

I have noticed the blue light, which on my phone is mms, stays on as well. I use handcent, and won't give it up. I have found that by going into the stock messaging app, and selecting the last sent message will clear the light. It is a minor inconvenience, but I will gladly accept it in order to use handcent.

Just playing with lightflow it seems the photon can do blue, pink, orange, cyan, red, and green. All the other colors seem to be very close to or the same as a color listed above.

There was an update for Handcent this morning that was suppose to fix the LED issue.
My photon hasn't had this problem and i use Handcent exclusively.
Just throwing the update out there, i remember reading the LED fix in the release notes.

Hi, all! Did any of you know that there is a notification light near the power button? Behind the silver casing. I realized this when i ported whatsapp to the tablet and i got a mesaage from my friend. Does anyone know this? I dont know why it only blinked with whatsapp.
If i helped you, click the thanks button!
Yeah i found this out when i got a new email (flashes green) and a facebook notification (flashes blue)
Seriously, doesn't anyone RTFM anymore?
Sadly i haven't found a way to disable this sucker yet. Darn thing lights up my room at night if i get an email. Anybody have a clue as to how we can kill this? NS Tools is not able to sadly.

Or try something light Light Flow (Lite) - LED Control from Play.

I use Lightflow Light also. That ultra bright LED sucks battery down to zero overnight....

I remember there's an option to turn on the notification light when setting up an email account in the device. You can try deleting the account and add it back to deactivate the light.

The notification LED turns on only when the tablet is in sleep mode (screen is off) and Wi-Fi is connected so the tablet can sync/receive email, Gmail, etc., when it is in sleep mode. To disable the notification LED while the tablet is in sleep mode, change the table's Wi-Fi disconnect policy to "When screen turns off" which causes the tablet to not sync/receive email when the tablet is in sleep mode.
Another option is to completely power off the tablet. If you do not want to be notified that you have a new email message while you are trying to go to sleep, then why have the tablet powered on?

The notification LED will still be on to give alert there is new email when the Wi-Fi disconnect policy is set to "When screen turns off". At least that is my case!

The tablet cannot sync/receive email if its Wi-Fi is disconnect, so all I can say is double check your tablet's settings. If the Wi-Fi is disconnected and your tablet is still receiving email, then I suspect witchcraft is involved.

Yes maybe
Sometimes notification led blinks before I switch on my tablet from idle and I can see Wi-Fi is reconnecting at the lower right hand corner when turning on my device

Just disable Wifi at night. Why would you need your emails while sleeping when you can just turn wifi on in the morning and check them in 5 secs..
I know this was posted in other phone forums, but I decided to throw it out to all the Incredible 4g users specifically...can anyone tell me exactly how the LED is supposed to function? I know where and how to set up exactly when it's supposed to turn on, but how long does it blink? I sometimes think its not working, but now I think that it blinks for awhile and then stops...then starts up again, seemingly at random...and what causes it to stop blinking? On swiping the notification? On opening the notification? Just unlocking your phone and seeing the notification? I've done some tests, but not exhaustive yet...wondering how it's SUPPOSED to work.

the notification light should blink until you unlock you phone.. once coming out of sleep you will see the notification , whether on the lock screen, the lock screen bubble shortcut, the status bar notification pull down, just as soon as u turn that screen on and come out of sleep, the LED will STOP blinking since it see you have seen the notification since you awoke the phone.
I hope this helps.
there is a chance that the blinking light does stop after awhile, like say 15 min, i cant say for this phone yet, but will post back once find out..
but IMO i don't think it would stop until you awake the phone.
