I've seen, in various posts, some unusual "alt" commands, such as Alt+RACE to view status, Alt+LGLG to clear cache, etc. Is there a compilation of these anywhere?

Thanks.

I'm interested in this list if there is any, I didn't knew about the alt+race :P

Some of these shortcuts work:

Do you have a link to the rest of the chapters?

Some shortcuts are listed at Crackberry Addict Shortcuts for Pearl 8100 «

How do you get the roller ball to change colors on the 8100? I've seen it on one in a store the sales person had.

For one there isn't a short cut to make the trackball change colors, that's what this thread is about. And two, there isn't an option to change the trackball to a specific color other than a downloadable program (which there are 2 that I know of) or to disassemble and color the led yourself.

to make the trackball change colors when it rings go to call log > options > general options > ringtone lighting then switch it to trackball
