The light leaks on to the screen so I'd rather have them turned off all the time. Can this be done by editing some system files by any chance?
I'm not sure if you can, but maybe delete the control file for the lights. I can find the directory if you'd like.

That would be great.

Unfortunately I don't know if the button backlight is directly related to the keypad backlight. It probably is.

I would like to know if there is a way to make the capacitive button lights brighter. I would also like to know how to permanently keep the capacitive lights on with evil D's nxsense rom. Thank you in advance.

If you're rooted you can send the value 255 to /sys/devices/i2c-0/0-0066/leds/button-backlight/brightness this turns it on. Any other value (say 0) turns it off. You will need to write an app (service) to receive the Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_ON intent and run a su shell command to turn off the button lights. Example code here.
Code:
echo 255 > /sys/devices/i2c-0/0-0066/leds/button-backlight/brightness
echo 0 > /sys/devices/i2c-0/0-0066/leds/button-backlight/brightness
If I were to go to the system/devices and find the led capcitive lights file, what exactly do I input and how???

You don't seem to understand what I am saying here, I was asking if there is a way to make them brighter and I already know how to turn on the led lights using gscript.

No, there isn't. They're at full brightness.
O alright thanks but is there a way to have a sense camera while on stock 2.3
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
closest you'd get is through CM7. if you want that, just go back to froyo and you'll get a lot more customizability
And if I were to flash cyanogenmod, how exactly would I change the stock camera into an HTC sense camera
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
it won't be the sense camera. it'll just have some features. if you need anything else, search is your best friend
Alright thank you for the info

It appears my camera LED stopped working. Does anyone know how to test it? I've tried a flashlight app but nothing happens.any ideas?
Sent from my LG-P925g using xda app-developers app
Did you try taking a picture or video with the light on in the settings? I also went into the hidden menu and did the Camera Test. That also should show you if the flash is working or not.
To access hidden menu you need to dial 3845#*925# or you can create a shortcut with Anycut.
Have you tried rebooting? That happened to me once when I was out and about and a reboot did the trick

If you know how to solder, you could always solder a new one on.

Find more about it here using search. Find out, what key is the Volume button (see in the file mentioned) and try to set it to POWER WAKE_DROPPED.
Might work, but also might not...
Use the search first! And like N00BY0815 said, don't spam!

Yes, I already said that it is a issue that it wont be fixed. I think in CM10 this bug doesn't exist
I was wondering if a clever dev could use the botom lights from the buttons as an alternative to a dedicated led. Since the led is only usefull with the screen locked & off, the botom button lights could serve the same purpose. The buttons themselves would not be working, only the lights.
Could this idea work?

You may try to use noLED application
Good idea, but no-one has program for it yet.

That's a kernel thing. It needs a kernel with bln (back light notification) support.

I have used noLED but deleted it because. I don't like it.
Anyhow the idea that author suggests sounds great and very logic. I saw few apps that can turn off buttons backlight. So it can enabled via app
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda app-developers app
You should check the ButtonLed thread. Its an app that is based on the Tasker app and it's made for phones that don't have led lights but have soft led buttons. But it doesn't work with our devices, because of the kernel security / limitations. I have contacted the developer of the app and he said that our device is similar to some s2 models, where the button leds can't be on while the screen is off.
So as I said before, we need new kernel with bln option.
