Blinking Keyboard Light When Charging - Motorola Q Forum

photios · 03-13-2008, 04:36 PM

Anyone know of a hack to prevent the keyboard light from blinking on and off continuously while the phone is being charged? I charge my phone every nite, and my wife says the blinking light is driving her crazy! I can cover the phone with a cloth, but hey, if I can hack the phone instead...

Thanks!

I've got the Q9h... do other Q9h users have this, or is this a defect -or - an added feature, depending how you perceive it?

Yeap, Q9h here as well (AT&T) and that blinking light is annoying. I too would like to know if there is a way to disable it. I'll be digging around in the registry later and if I find a solution I'll be sure to post it here...

interesting, my Q9h doesn't blink when charging. It looks like the NA Q9h is really different from Euro Q9h. Strange strategy from Moto for building two separate hardware spec for different market. Doesn't make sense...

Q9h here also.

Mine blinks too. Kinda cool

I have a Q9h on AT&T... it blinks when charging also.

I kind of like the feature myself, but I suppose I can see how it could be annoying if it were on a nightstand next to a pillow or something...
