I take no credit for this, but just got it working with the evo 3d, this is mearly copied work of sw99's from the og evo forum found here
I cannot find screen brightness controls but everything else seems to work with a tiny change from the og evo to the e3d.
Also found that you can turn both the green and red led on at the same time and get orange.
You just need to download the Locale Execute Plug-in and obviously have Tasker
In tasker set up a new action and choose plugin then the execute plugin and click edit
replace X with option you want
For amber led on/off,
@! echo X > sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/amber/brightness
0 = OFF
1 = ON
For amber led blink,
@! echo X > sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/amber/blink
0 = Solid
1 = Blink
For green led on/off,
@! echo X > sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/green/brightness
0 = OFF
1 = ON
For green led blink,
@! echo X > sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/green/blink
0 = Solid
1 = Blink
For capacitive leds,
@! echo X > sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/button-backlight/brightness
0 = OFF
1 = ON
For Flash leds,
@! echo X > sys/devices/platform/flashlight.0/leds/flashlight/brightness
0 = OFF
125 = Low power
127 = High Power
129 = High Power Single Flash
You must "Test" the task several times and wait for the Superuser permissions to trigger, otherwise the task will not execute. You will need to do this for each task you create using this plugin.
Pretty cool stuff here man. Thanks for a info. Now I have to find a way to implement this. Maybe I can find a way for the LED to blink when I am in a 4G zone. That would be amazing in itself.
Very nice, kudos

Thanks for the kudos. I was kind of waiting for full root before I messed with this.
I also kind of miss the extra led on the OG EVO. The charge led is being used by the system, and as such, if a system event occurs it will override your settings.

I rather not have them turn on at all. I don't like using screen filter because it disables randomly or when the brightness is adjusted either manually or from another app.
LEDs hack in the market. You can use to disable them, but I don't know if it will stay after reboot.
Didn't work that's the first thing I tried.
I have a script I got from somewhere on here that I just run the command in terminal emulator. One command, and it turns off when on or turns off when on.
#!/system/bin/sh

Thanks. I don't have tasker, but looked at this from your tut: For capacitive leds,
@! echo X > sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/button-backlight/brightness
0 = OFF
1 = ON
I was able to use Root Explorer, and navigate to "/sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/button-backlight/brightness" When I got to the 'brightness' file, I long pressed it, and cliicked 'open in text editor'. It opened and the number 255 was there. I deleted it, and added a 0, then hit menu and chose 'save and exit'. Not sure if i did it right, but as soon as I hit save and exit the capacitive lights turned out, and I've had no issues so far.
EDIT: NVM, they came back on and the 0 changed back to 255. Lights are back on after the screen shuts off and turns back on.
Tasker is $7, kinda pricey for me. Im a cheap bastard when it comes to adding to my $200+ phone bill.
Noticed they came back on with the script too. So I modified the script to make it stick.

Sent From My HTC Evo 3D Using Tapatalk On The Now Network From Sprint!
I think I have figured out a setup for tasker to make the notification light blink longer than 5 minutes. The setup that is currently working for me is to use tasker with the Locale Execute Plug-in. I followed DomSim's guide to get Locale Execute to handle LED blinking. You can setup solid/blinking lights using that guide. I just chose a generic green blinking light for all notifications. I also chose to shut off led notifications under settings-display, though I don't know if it would conflict in any way.
In tasker,
1) Create new profile
2) First context - choose Event, UI, Notification, Done
3) Task Selection - choose New Task, click +, Plugin, Execute, Edit, type lines from DomSim's thread ie
Code:
For green led blink,
@! echo 1 > sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/green/blink
4)Click Done and test until it gets root permission (took several times until it happened)
4) click +, Tasker, Wait 5 minutes, Done
5) click +, Tasker, Goto Action, 1, add an if then statement so it only repeats if the notification is not cleared. Done
6) click Done and Apply
So far it's worked to keep my led flashing on notifications for longer than 5 minutes. I'm sure it'll affect battery life some, but I don't know how much. You could make it more complex and have different color (red or green) and solid/flash for different events like missed call, sms, etc. using tasker and replacing Notification in step 2 with whatever you want. Also, Locale Execute Plug-in may not be needed as tasker has the ability to flash the LED as well, but I could not get it to work in the past...but that was before I thought of using an infinite loop. It will save some typing if you don't need Locale Execute Plug-in .
original post
So now that we have root and s-off, is there something that can be changed to make it so the notification light will keep flashing until the notification is dismissed? It shuts off after about 5 minutes as it is now, which defeats its purpose IMO. I've tried using many of the LED controller programs, and none of them work reliably for notifications even with root. I've also tried setting up profiles in tasker to blink the led, but it still shuts off after 5 minutes.
Is this 'feature' in the kernel or some other part of HTC's software? I'd love for a mod/program to make it blink until the notification is dismissed or the battery is dead .

Nobody has any other ideas? If someone has it working with tasker or any other program, go ahead and post how you did it.
I guess I should title the thread "Get a Photon!" so I could get pages and pages of replies .
I've been using Light Flow, it's the best app I've found so far but I haven't tried a whole lot to be honest. It works pretty decent, though like you said not 100% reliable. You can also adjust the vibrate rate/pattern which I love.
I've come from a Blackberry, the notification LED on those are very big, very bright and multiple color selections, where the EVO 3D has 3, green, red and a deep orange. I've missed many a different notifications on my EVO 3D, specially text messages. I'll walk out of the room, come back and see no blinking light, then check my phone like 30 minutes later and notice I had a text message sitting for 30+ minutes without even knowing.
Not only is shutting the light off after 5 minutes a terrible idea, like you said pretty much defeats the purpose but the notifications not showing while charging due to the light staying constantly red is a terrible design decision if you ask me.
Updated the OP with some tasker settings that seem to be working (so far).

I actually never could get tasker to work right. I got it to keep the LED on until dismissed, but the loop caused the phone to never go to sleep and ate through battery faster. If your interested, I've implemented a fix at the kernel level (thanks to joe85) for 2.3.4 Sense ROMs. You can find the thread here. It's been the only reliable fix for me.

Brightness is set to maximum but dims when in low light.
Thanks.
As of the moment no way to set the auto brightness to off. Maybe some software update oughta to do it, or some genius gets pissed off and develop one.
I also noticed that when you force off the capacitive button lights (useful when dark) via software, the keyboard light will not turn on also (not useful when dark).
The x10 mini has locked auto-brightness too and it can be disabled this way:

Maybe it works on the mini/active as well?

And its free, as in really free, no ads at all unlike many "free" but has ad pushing. You can turn off the capacitive button lights when you prefer to setup a widget for it.

I found another app, which may actually be better, as it turns off the backlight of the capacitive buttons, but leaves the keyboard backlight active when opened!
it's called "Keyboard backlight controller".
funny enough, this is supposed to disable keyboard backlight, but on the Xperia Mini Pro it disables only the backlights of the soft-keys!
edit: forgot to mention, this app needs root, so may not be for everyone.
Whoa nice find, I'll try that when I can

yes, this is caused by the auto brightness, which can't be turned off in the user interface.
I've played around with hw_config.sh file, trying to get it disabled, but to no avail.
Anyone else more luck?
I've found an application that works, it's called "Disable Auto Brightness".
It was made for another Xperia type phone, but also works on the mini pro (and I assume mini as well).
It works, but its somewhat unhandy: it'll disable the auto brightness sensor, but only after unlocking. so while using the stock lock screen, it works almost perfectly, but when using something like widgetlocker, it'll only work if you leave the system keyguard enabled (under advanced settings) which I don't really like too much.
so for anyone having these flicker issues, this is a fairly good solution.
but I'd like to have the sensor completely turned off.
soooo, anyone any luck with that?

You can echo to it with an app like gscript lite, and then make a shortcut to it if you want.
echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/button-backlight/device/leds/button-backlight/brightness
That should be max brightness, 0 would be off.
I used to do this on my OG Evo to turn off the capacitive button backlights. My LED notification light seems to get stuck On whenever I tried to turn off the backlights on this phone though. I don't remember under what circumstances, been a while since I tried it, might have been when unplugging from a charger, and only rebooting would fix it.

Hmm, gscript definitely worked for me, but then I also ran into the problem that NewZJ ran into anyway - they would come back on after waking the device. I was trying to disable them though, not make them brighter.
Also, I just looked at the file again and when they're on I think the brightness is set to 255 anyway. Maybe it is already set to max brightness by default when they're on.
This is a small script to control leds on xperia u.
You will need root and busybox.
Instructions. Unzip, Put it in /system/bin , give it execution permissions (555, for example) and run it in a terminal.
Do not install it with CWM.
Use it as
blink [led] [intensity]
led list: red, green, blue, red1, green1, blue1, red2, green2,blue2,red3,blue3,green3
the ones without number are the small led next to the power button. Numbers are the notification bar, from left to right.
intensity goes from 0 to 255
0 stops blinking.
I use it with tasker for many things.
If you just use it with no arguments, it makes the power green led to blink. If you give no intensity, it uses 50.
You need to be root, so if you are using this on the terminal or adb, type "su" first.
For tasker, mark the "use root" box.
Examples:
blink red2 - makes the middle led on the bar blink red.
blink red2 0 - stops the blinking for middle red led.
blink green3 255 - blinks green right led, max power.
blink blue1 200; blink red1 - makes left led blink in a bluish violet.
You can of course modify the script to match your needs. All the info was extracted from this forums, so I cannot say that I did anything new, just put the script together.
Note1: The blink speed seems random ,sometimes is faster, and sometimes it is slower. If anyone knows how to control it, please tell me and I will try to add it to the program. Sometimes it is so slow that it does not work.
Note2: Leds-u-ctrl allows you to use the ambient bar for notifications, and it is a very nice program. If you find this too complicated, you may try that. I am not related in anyway to LUC developer.
------------
Edit : I added version 2.
New command: solid. Works as blink, but with solid light. Same syntax.
New command:ledset .
ledset [option]
options:
fadeon : sets fade to on for led blinking
fadeoff: sets fade to off for led blinking
baroff : turns off all notification bar leds
alloff : turns off all notification and power leds
Copy to /system/bin ,give permissions as usual.

Regarding Note1: the blinking speed depends fully on the CPU load and speed at that moment.
Since the CPU governor's system default is flexible the speeds tends to vary.
The only way I've found up till now (and included in LUC) is to temporarily change the governor.
The downside is that the cpu speed is changed for the whole system, not only the shell script.
Regarding Note2: thanks
Looks really interesting, will give it a try with tasker
It works untilj unless you don't touch the buttons (home/back/options) the color you set goes away but the white blink still keeps

Hi, yes, I know. That cannot be fixed because sony's framework for lighting the bar interferes with the script. I use it only when the screen is off, and I turn the led off when the screen is on.
I played a bit with the file dim_brightness, but couldn't figure how it works. But if you have any information, tell me and I will add it to the script.
I think some good additions would be solid lights: "solid red2 50" for eg. and a way of turning all lights off in one go, maybe putting in "rgb123 0".

I can tell u what to add. Will try explain you how I came to know about it
Leave the script for a sec(Coz it don't do anything to the original files in the above mentioned folder. )
Just set the value of any of the led file use_pattern manually to 1. Than set the value of the same led file pattern use softdim
See if understood or get it. Otherwise let me know I will try make video of what it does to show it.
I really want it happen successfully as I am fan of it from the day fourth of after bought this phone, (as fourth day of buying it I was playing with it manually . Will be great if works
Btw its only ics that don't let the leds blink but on gb this interference don't happens
They blink the way you set it until you don't restart the phone
But nixx-x1 helped me keep the settings even after starting with a small script on gb. But ICS don't even let that too work

Save it as police, put it in /system/bin/ and give the permissions.
You will need version 2 that I just posted.

Hi
Sorry didn't mentioned the full name of the file. its> pattern use softdim
Its in sys/class/led//device. Here from the last its the 4th file
I can tell u what to add. Will try explain you how I came to know about it
Leave the script for a sec(Coz it don't do anything to the original files in the above mentioned folder. )
Just set the value of any of the led file use_pattern manually to 1. Than set the value of the same led file pattern use softdim
See if understood or get it. Otherwise let me know I will try make video of what it does to show it.
I really want it happen successfully as I am fan of it from the day fourth of after bought this phone, (as fourth day of buying it I was playing with it manually . Will be great if works
Btw its only ics that don't let the leds blink but on gb this interference don't happens
They blink the way you set it until you don't restart the phone
But nixx-x1 helped me keep the settings even after starting with a small script on gb. But ICS don't even let that too work

I think some good additions would be solid lights: "solid red2 50" for eg. and a way of turning all lights off in one go, maybe putting in "rgb123 0".

It works for me. I'll attach it here. Probably it is because you edited it in windows, and you used windows endlines.
I'll attach it here, just copy it to /system/bin and give permissions as in first post.
Here is output.

1. copy all files from V2.zip (first post) into /system/bin/
2. copy police script into /system/bin/
3. change permission of those 4 files you just copied to 555 (or just check all boxes)
4. go to a shell emulator and type " police " (without quotes)
then you have your phone siren blinking

You need busybox installed. Get the installer from play store, use normal install.
Rainbows
For those liking rainbows, I've edited the rainbow scripts used in LUC a bit to be used in the same way as the blink scripts
Just extract the .zip attached and copy it with the other files in /system/bin and set the execute.
There are 3 sequences in it:
RB1 = fade in sequence
RB2 = loop sequence
RB3 = fade out sequence
You can also set a slowdown factor in msec.
If you don't want to slow it down use value " 0 ".
I found that slowdown factors up to 50000 still work smoothly (it will take a minute to finish thou..)
Commands
Code:
rainbow [slowdown] [sequence] [sequence] [sequence]
Example
Code:
rainbow 1000 RB1 RB2 RB2 RB3
This will fade in the rainbow, loop it 2 times and fade it out.
at the moment it's possible to have 6 loops (so 8 sequences in total)
If you use less you'll get a few "1000: not found"... those can be ignored
Perhaps daPaua knows a way to have the input dynamic instead of fixed
