Usually the green flashing light indicates that you are in coverage.

The beep... not sure. Could be low battery.

Coverage is basically where your cell carrier's signal reaches. If you have coverage and your phone works in one area may vary in another place.

My Nextel device didn't have any coverage at my house (couldn't make any calls), but my Sprint device works great at my house (can make calls just fine, even in the basement).

Yes. Click on the Options icon, then Screen/Keyboard. Set the LED Coverage Indicator to 'Off'.

Hmmmm..... Green is coverage, red is new message/phone/calendar notification. Blue is bluetooth.

If you have it set to off and it's still flashing, try pulling the battery (remove battery while device is on for 20 seconds, then put it back in).

The battery going "dead" indicator does appear to be a washed out green when you get to 5%. It stopped because you charged the phone.

The only reason I know is we have a Pearl that always does it at the end of the day. And the first few times I was like who turned the Coverage LED on?

Thats a yellow color. It's just red and green at the same time.

True just depends on what angle you see it at.

See, I've gotten used to the blinking greenish light when my phone is dying..
BUT when it's dying and I get a text, it doesn't flash red all the time.. sometimes its a solid bright a aqua or purple..

It's blinding.. Anyone else have THAT problem?
