LED on SMS stops blinking after 5 min

[krazyfiend]

this might help us...just dug it up over at XDA...although prob relevant for 6.1 , i'd imagine the Registry paths are the same

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...ht=flash+light

still doesn't address 'unread messages' notification apparently

I've already switched back to 6.1 so I no longer have that problem. What's funny, is the drop down box in 6.1 is NOT grayed out. I can change it at will from No limit to 5min, to 60min.

So I dont get why they messed with it in 6.5

If you scroll down, you should see something that looks like A877D65B.....

You'll see the name "Duration" it should probably say 5 and that means 5min

I hit the edit button, and changed it to 0. 0 means NO LIMIT. This is what I use because if I set my phone down and walk away for 20min or 2hrs, if I look at it and it is blinking, I know I have a message. When I select it, the LED disappears, and I go about my business. Wont blink again till something comes through

In that same registry string if you change the AvailableOptions key to 15, the check box for the duration will become active.
