Back Button LED Always Lit

[Guest Eotris]

I bought my San Francisco a few weeks ago, but had it replaced by Orange this week as the touchscreen had become unresponsive. I was pleasantly surprised to find that they had sent me a re-furbished OLED model :D

I unlocked and flashed it with JJ9, however, I have only just noticed that the 'back' button (orange) LED is always lit and never changes colour, even when drained/charged. This is the case even when the phone is powered off and disconnected from the mains. I tried a few other custom ROMs, which made no difference. I haven't tried to revert back to a stock ROM yet (power and volume+ doesn't seem to work), but I can't imagine it is anything but a hardware fault.

A couple of questions:

- would this significantly affect the battery life?

- any way it can be fixed?

I really don't want to replace it, as I find the OLED superior to my original TFT.

Thanks in advance.

i dont think it will affect the battery life, but it does seem a hardware issue.
