Replaced the battery in my Nook, it wouldn't come on or charge, now it goes to green, amber, and red blinking light. Can someone help me with getting this to work? What should I look for etc.?
Make sure your 7 pins (2 red, 2 black, 1 yellow, 1 green and 1 white) connector is properly attached, If yes, you should measure between the red wires and black wires has any voltage between them.

The only LED I ever really noticed on my Hima was the blue one telling me BT was on or off. I know the device has a green, yellow and red LED on the opposite side that can either burn or flash, but don't ask me why. Neither do I know if the flashing rate of the blue LED might tell me something.
Last week when my battery was just about 99.9% drained and my Hima started to behave strange, I noticed that on external power the red LED burned constantly. And when I notice something like that, it's probably because I've never seen it before.
http://michael-channon.spaces.live...._c=BlogPart&partqs=cat=Hermes+Charging+Issues helped me out.
But I would love to know the exact meaning of all LED colours and blinking rates.
all the Leds's Rate are in the Book that comes with it
Thanks, but as I told before I bought 2 Hima's with broken screens years ago, under those conditions it's very rare to get anything but the dead device itself.
The service manual only tells me that a fast flashing yellow LED means battery is too warm (>35C) or too cold (<0C) to charge.
hmmz..u r rite..its unpredictable..any way i'll see what i can find
What I can see, it's blinking green on normal operation, lighting yellow on charging, blinking red on missed calls and lighting red on too low voltage...
Mine never blinks green. Lighting green tells me charging reached 100%.
Could blinking green mean GPRS or IR on?
Anyone ever seen blinking yellow?
I hope curiosity only kills cats ;-)
I guessed the lighting red :-(
Mine blinking green when it is in normal operation.
Yellow on charging
Red when there is misscall or message because I set to give LED sign
> Green for normal - with carrier signal operation and Fully charged while still plugged into wallsocket
> Yellow for Charging
> Red - missed calls/poor elec current while being charged/very low battery
@Maggy, there is a tweak on how to permanently disable blinking lite even during normal operation. could it be possible that ur units have are tweaked like such?

Not that I can remember, but I'm tweaking all the time. Aren't we all?
;-)
how come on my XDA my colors are
Yellow=Normal Operation
ORANGE=Charging
Red=Low batt
May be your led is expired Yellow and Orange is slighly different, you lose green color I think every body mentioned yellow in here is little bit mix with orange color
Or some of us are more colour blind than others
Just scored another NC (used) to play with. (There's gonna be a 12-Step Program sooner or later for the Nookie-addicted!!) Anyhow, was charging this new toy and noticed something odd...the "U" (or "N" if you prefer) on the microUSB charger cable inserted in the bottom of the NC....it glowed "red" whilst charging! Wierd. The other cables (yeah, I know, mulitple NCs) glow yellow then green when charged.
Anyone else seen this? Not worried, just curious. (Actually it's kinda cool..)

Yeah, my sister brought her's over this weekend and the charger did the *red thing*. Thought I screwed something up for a second!
Her's was bought at Walmart and has the 2010 ser#.
Mine glows orange & green and was bought at B&N in Nov. 2004 ser#.
I think it glows red when you run it down so low that the Nook Color shuts down on reserve power. Yellow is the normal color when charging, and then green for fully charged (or when the cord is slightly ajar I've discovered).

This is correct. I've been there a couple of times. As you charge the red will turn orange/yellow & then green when fully charged. It has to be discharged to the point that it won't stay on for the red to show.
Red "N" on USB Cable
I have one of a few known Nook Color USB cables which glows red when unplugged. It just started one day and has never stopped. I think a normal Nook Color USB cable is dark (unlit) when unplugged.
Having said that I'll add this: The red LED seems to be on always. So when the Nook is charging the normal orange color has a distinct red tint to it. And when the Nook Color is full the normal green color has more of a yellow (but not very orange) tint.
This seems moot as the Nook charges fully and otherwise works well. The cable problem occurred before I rooted or installed CM6 RC4.
.
When I plug my charger into my Nook Color there is a "U" shaped light on the adapter that changes color's depending on what it is doing. For the past 2 months the light is either yellow (meaning it is charging) or Green (meaning it is fully charged) ... this week I started to get a third color RED.
If I jiggle the adapter plug the light will go back to yellow (the charging color).
What does the red color mean ??? and why would it go away if I jiggle the plug ?
Thanks for any insight.

Well mine never had red until last week. Now I see the big "U" as RED every day.
Anyone else?
It can't charge.
When my cable went red, I had to take it to the store. It might be a defective cable.
It usually means "I'm trying to charge but it isn't working!"
hmm, mine has always had the red. actually it's kind of dark yellow on one end and then blends into a kind of darker orange on the other end.
Just plain green when it's charged.

Ditto. Should it be all orange?
I work with Nook Color displays and red usually means the cable has been stressed and will fail to charge. At that point, I replace it. The connector on the Nook Color cable is fairly fragile and breaks frequently in stores.
Red just means the battery is too low to turn the thing on or extremely low. Yellow means charging. Green is good to go.

O and the U shape is really an n. Like the home button, the nook symbol, an n.

When charging my mi3 device led light is green instead of yellow even when bellow 90% and when device is powered off and charging, led does to glow green instead of yellow on 40%. And there is no red blinking light when bellow 20%. Im on miui 7 global beta ROM at the moment.
Hey. When i change color on charging led light, first 1-2 seconds when i plugged phone into charger it shows me right color, but then as i said 1-2 seconds later it is always blue. Just why? I have issue only with charging color
Ok, but what does it means battery charging color? I mean there is written "when battery is charging" and i can choose color. What for is it if there will be always blue color? Thanks
