Hello,

Just wanted to let you know, that Handcent SMS now supports color LEDs. Currently 4 colors are available (amber, green, blue, cyan). So you can customize your arriving SMS's color. It can blink, too.

rebooted phone and working ;)

this has made me absurdly happy!

note: didn't get a notification in the market that an update was available. suspect this might be because when the market was having trouble the other week I'd manually installed it off the handcent site. Installed from market over the top and bingo: blue LED! great stuff.

testing now to see if the notification LED goes off after 5 mins. would prefer pernament notification until the message is read, ideally.

Has nothing to do with the fact you installed it via the official site, i installed the apk i downloaded from another forum and still got the update notification...

the 'cyan' (because it's acutally not cyan) LED is the brightest one.

It seems to be all three lights on at the same time. It's purty.

but not when the screen is off. people want to know what type of alert they have received when screen is off but it stops blinking after few secs. I set blue for sms, i hope some one can make a app for missed calls so i can set pink and emails can have green.

LED dont work with froyo ROM.

I expected that tho.

source is out so all the new ROMs that should be released next week should be stable and fully working and then handacent led's will hopefully work too.

if you look in the options menu under notifications then u will see a option for notification reminders. default setting is off. have you tried to enable that and see if the led blinks after usual few secs.

My led wont blink when receiving a msg plus while charging and recieving a msg led would go blue (as according to what i chose on settings) but after sending my quick reply led would go off, not comming back and showing the orange phones charging led notice...

anyone else encountered these probs? (using Pauls 3.1 btw)

I got a new beta version as i was talking with the maker about LED not continuously blinking. The version I have blinks forver when the screen is off untill you turn on the screen and read message. There will be a update soon and it might have few more colour combo

Yeah, I know, maybe drop a line to HTC and ask them to fix their kernel code ;)

Cause that is the right one: a signal that you got a message, right? Or you prefer the stock one, which stops after 5 minutes?

hey guys...

does any of you have the color led working in R9?

It stopped working for me for a long time... I had the feeling that it worked with Sense, and im using launcher pro...

But maybe i just the bad idea...

I'm using Launcher Pro and have lost the colour LED feature with R9 too. Thought a full wipe and installing the final version of R9 might have fixed it but unfortunately not.
