I have to disagree.
For one, simply people wanting a hack does nothing. In general, if you want some kind of trick done you have to find someone experienced in that area and ask (beg?) them to take it on as a project.
I've seen far too many threads in my day where someone says "some developer should do X" and the thread dies because they never actually contacted a developer. (Did the magically expect that every developer would read their thread, see 5 posts and decided to take it on?)
If you guys really want this YOU have to make it happen by which I mean make a post at XDA Developers or buzzdev.net or specifically ask someone with know-how. Simply posting saying "I'd like that too" will get you no where.
All I'm saying to the OP is the facts: there is no hack for this. There is no prospect in the near future for the hack as I know of no one working on it. I'm not saying it can't be done or that it shouldn't, just not to
expect it.
Going further, I'm not keen on the prospects for this being done.
On the 650, turning OFF the blinking light wasn't too hard since the function (
Blink LED = Signal) existed, we were just disabling/blocking it. On the 700wx there is NO evidence that there is a sytem tie in for
Blink LED = Signal
It's not a matter of turning the fucntion ON but of creating from scratch the entire function. That's going to involve some skill. More skill than what we have here and I'm not sure it can be done.
But like I said, that's why you need to find someone specifically who knows how the OS ties into the both the CDMA radio/signal system and how to control the LED. That's a 3-way system. Maybe it's easy as hell, but we won't know by simply making posts in this thread.
You can start here:

With Bruce and his PhoneAlarm 1.60 requests. I don't think he'll do it though since it won't work for all devices, so he'd have to have make (yet another) Treo specific program. Is it worth his time? Will he charge for it? You'd have to ask.
I
know this stuff is hard though. On the
ppc-6700, if you disabled the blinking signal LED, it killed ALL the LEDs. It also killed the Vibrate function
, hence why there is no hack for the 6700 that controls THOSE LEDs.
