AIM Functionality

[Simpdapimp]

I have the HTC Mogul and I have managed to add the AIM icon to my HTCHomeplug right after the backlight icon. And it works with opening my AIM but once i have it open i have to leave it open to see when i get a new message. Unless i turn the sounds on and i cant bc they are constantly going off. I want to know if there is anyway i could maybe make the Icon blink like orange to yellow when i have recieved a new message. Any help would be great, im not a newbie to this so if it takes high level of knowledge im up for it. Thanks

actualy there is a hack to allow you to change the color of the led, but I cant remember under which forum I saw it. When I locate it I will PM it to you.

There is a reg hack that you can do to tell the phone to make the led flash

18-Change ringtone/vibrate/LED flash characteristics

If you would like more control over how your device rings/vibrates/flashes its LEDs on events, you can can change the Script values of these events. For example, for an incoming call performing 'activate device, play ringtone, wait 3 seconds, repeat':

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = "apw3r" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)

For performing 'active device, set volume to 33%, play ringtone, set volume to 67%, play ringtone, set volume to 100%, play ringtone (no repeat)':

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = "ac33pc67pc100p" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)

The following are the full codes available to you. Please note that all the codes are executed simultaneously except after a ringtone play / wait code. E.g. 'v1p' will vibrate and play at the same time, while vibrating for 1 second. But 'pv1' will play the ringtone through all the way first, then start vibrating for 1 second.

a = activate device
cN = set volume to N in percentage max volume
fN = flash notification LED for N seconds
p = play ringtone. Note that this will play the ringtone all the way through before continuing with the next code.
r = repeat. Note that this should be the last code in your Script string, if used at all.
vN = vibrate for N seconds
wN = wait for N seconds. Note that the device will wait this long before continuing with the next code.

NOTE: I tried this on my 6800 and changed the v0 to v1 and now it doesn't have just one long vibrate. v0 sets it to vibrate always.

I got this from the following link. It's just one reg tweak of many there. Hope this helps.
