Extremely minor issue here, every now and again my trackball blinks white twice, and when i go to check for notifications, there's nothing. Anyone know why?
It might be data connection. I have this happen when I lose and reconnect.
Possibly k9mail. I think there's an option to turn that off. It flashes when its checking the email.

I'm trying to figure out why red led keeps blinking even I dismiss reminder. If I understand correctly alert led should stop blinking when I take care of whatever made it.
I've noticed that when I delete text message while ring tone is active it does not stop red led but when I wait for end of it- everything is fine.
I don't want to set short period of blinking in alert settings.
i used have problem like that, but after i install ROM newest ROM the problem gone. :wink:
Happens to me from time to time, seems to happen when I just dismiss a reminder the 'wrong' way (just hitting the hang up button instead of hitting Dismiss... although even when I do that it still does it sometimes). Its behaviour seems to be affected if I also have an unread text message in my inbox, or if I'm in a call when the reminder pops up... There's x amount of circumstances where it just doesn't go away (and it pisses me off no end, I don't like red blinking lights as they're invariably bringers of bad news! )
The phone is continuously blinking that I have a new sms!
I restarted, same thing!
I went through each and every sms in my inbox/email folders so that if one was "new" it would be read since I entered it.
Still blinking, so I uninstalled it, restarted and re-installed it. Still blinking!!
I then uninstalled it, restarted, installed it this time on my storage card, restarted and same! Still damn blinking.
I even turned off all light notifications and restarted, then enabled blinking, still blinking! I even changed lights but still blinked green and blue!
Wheres the malfunction?
thanks
Green blinks are normal for me, seem to mean the phone is on. And blue blinks means Bluetooth is on. This can be changed to some extent with a program, but I don't recommend it because the initial version of the program strangely doesn't allow setting the blue blink as an indicator of Bluetooth being on, which is SUCH a weird thing, since it's the default not only for this phone but pretty much for all phones with Bluetooth capability.

You are not familiar with this app called Kaiser Notification by Phil Lee.
It allows you to disable lights and then enable lights for different notifications.
So you can set it to blink green (right lamp) for new sms and blue for new email or vice versa.
You can have it blink amber for bluetooth on, red for missed call and green for phone in service.
Or you can turn off all blinking notifications.
Mine is blinking blue even though I have no new sms.
Hi
This problem has been reported before although I've never seen it. What seems to happen is Windows Mobile gets out of sync with the count of unread messages. The program itself just looks at these counts so if it is told by Windows Mobile there are 'x' unread messages it sets the LED flashing.
A fix is discussed here which requires using a registry editor to reset the counts. I'm working a newer version with some extra features and will look to change the code to either include this fix or to keep count of messages itself rather than use the Windows Mobile reported counts.
Hope the above helps.
Regards
Phil
Hi Phil,
Thanks for taking the time to create such a great app and the time to respond to errors. I checked the thread you referred to and it is literally exactly what im going through,e xcept I havent edited the registry yet.
Thanks again!
It wakes up everytime I get a text message and sometimes seems to wake up for no reason. This didn't always happen but I can't find and option to disable this.
Anyone know what I can do about it?
i dont think so it might be better to leave it alone.

On my phone, every time I receive a text message, the buttons light up for about half a second then starts to vibrate and play the ringtone. It's been doing that since the whole CnD thing and I've just ignored it since it didn't seem to be causing any issues.
You could go into the SMS app and shut off notifications from there. Might make a nice, powersaving script.
I don't know why the phone powers up without a notification. I have found I can't turn on my Wifi when I turn on Background data and it's been off for quite a while (still have autosync off). My data connection is showing heavy useage. The big G is watching us all. It makes me wonder if something is coming in to your phone from somewhere to wake it.
If it's killing you, you could try living without apps for a day you suspect might be doing it, or just schedule a kill at intervals if you can't uninstall it.
You could go into settings and change the screen timeout to 15 Sec so if it does come on, it wont stay on long..
So since I got the phone I am trying to figure what is going on with LED notifications. Basically it works fine with missed calls, sms, gmail, email, it blinks every few seconds, but with 3rd party apps like whatsapp, viber, facebook..it wont blink, its just always on (until i clear notification). I tried some apps like Light Flow, even if you set it to blink/flash every few seconds, it doesn't work, its always ON.
Also I noticed something strange about illumination bar when browsing gallery, as soon as LED notification light turns on, illumination bar will turn off, like some kind of conflict between them.
I did phone repair, factory reset, nothing helps.
So I want to know is it supposed to be like that, is it a glitch/bug, bad programming or something else. Even on my old Sony phone I had troubles with LED...

Have you enabled "STAMINA"-Mode in the Settings? if yes turn it off and see if it helps.

I have testet it on my E1 and i can't get it work too. I think the ROM has a bug or something.
Also I noticed that LED is keeping phone awake. For example, you receive email, led is blinking keeping phone awake and then "Android OS" is draining battery like crazy if wifi is enabled, but that's another story. Tried repair, factory reset, nothing helps...
My red magic 3 will randomly turn the screen on even with the option to not wake up the screen in every settings I could find. I have seen it happen when I'm driving or walking and even just having the phone on my night stand.
Then screen will turn on and there's no new messages or notifications, it just turns on.
Any ideas as to what I could try?
My friend has this exact same issue! We both have the same phone, mine does not do it but his does. Just, randomly the screen turns on, doens't seem to be related to notifications or anything. If anyone knows what's causing this, it would be appreciated. Thanks!
