Question Strange trackball during phone and media usage

Please Login to Remove!

Lately, after having updated to Rogers 4.2.1.109, I have noticed that whenever I am on the phone or dialling a number, if media is playing (video/music), or any notification like new email or SMS that the trackball lights up in multicolor just like when the phone rings when ringtone lighting is set to trackball. I have never installed Metsfan's app, so I was wondering if anyone has any idea where this stems from?

Could this be from security policy on the BES the same way the blue light is on whenever Bluetooth connections are active or the red light blinking whenever the microphone is active?

Are you positive that you didn't install Metsfan's app? What about pimp my berry? If not I am guessing it's a result of a device either hardware or OS. How interesting! (Sorry I know it's probably frustrating to you though!) But let's clarify when you phone rings with the ring tone lighting set it is just plain white?

Sounds like a bug in the OS. The ringtone lighting is a feature so it's likely getting confused when your in the phone app and the media player is playing something.

It must be a bug. I seldom use this as a phone so perhaps that's what triggered the it. A battery pull set things straight.
