EVO 4G Rainbow LED modification
 
i also replaced the charge light with blue and the charged light with white
i will not post a "Do It Yourself" unless you ask. i dont want people taking apart there evo's if they have no experience with at least soldering and precision tools.

-note, the back button is actually purple and the search is a darker blue. i dont know why it shows that way on the picture,which was taken from another evo 4g

THAT'S the way it should be out of the box! Way cool! And no, I won't ask how! :-)

good job, i haven't messed around with LEDs much since the Nextel days. I did however change the TP and the Pre back a few years.

I got the parts on ebay 8 different colors 10 of each color 10$ shipped to hawaii
They are called surface mount led 0603 if im not mistaken
Must use a flat soldering iron tip.dab with water before installing

this is exactly what i ordered

That's tight, but I won't be taking apart mine anytime soon.

Re: EVO 4G Rainbow LED modification
 
Is the only way to do this to replace the led's? Or can you do it like the tp/tp2 where you put gel light filters or just paint the surface with markers for different colors?
