Led?

[GBAUMS]

My bionic just started blinking a green light? Anyone know what this means? I know it blinks red when the battery is dying but this is blinking green. It also only blinks when I put the screen to sleep. It stops blinking when i awaken it. Someone please help this dumb guy.

It means you have an email or message or something of the sort. Its a message indicator.

When you unlock the screen is there something on the left of the notification bar?

 

[GBAUMS]

No thats the thing I don't have any notification there. No email or text or anything?

 

[guidot]

Hmm. What about a reboot?

 

[GBAUMS]

Tried it and still did it. I did bring down my notification bar even though there werent any notifs and it seemed to have stopped. So for now I thank you for your help, and if it comes back so will I

 

[guidot]

Haha, that sounds like a plan!

My phone will not stop that blinking green light either. I have no pending notifications either. How can I get it to stop?

I had that same issue before, and only multiple reboots would stop it temporarily. And after a while it kept coming back, so multiple factory resets was the only way I was able to get it to stop permanently.

the blinking green light is too indicate sleep mode instead of screen off... Features disabled in sleep mode... So it's a reminder that you may not be getting the updates and messages you are expecting...n

I have never put my phone in sleep mode. How would I have done this and how do I disable this? The green light is killing my battery.

This is also happening here. Not consistent. I was just looking it with the power button, and the green blinking notification light wad there with no real notification. Just locking, not putting it to sleep. Another bug?

No, it probably isn't killing your battery.

Definitely a bug, this is the fourth or fifth thread I've found on this topic since the 2.3.3 update. And it's across multiple Droid platforms so I know it must be an OS issue not an app issue. Don't know if it's just Droids or other Android devices as well.

And no, I'm not doing a GD "factory reset," I want someone to FIX these problems, not give me a placebo.

do you have something other then a stock messaging apps installed.

 

[MarkPhlipy]

Yes I'm using Handcent, but I've had it all along...and it's set as Default messaging app with the Notifications set to off in the stock app.
