T46G LED blinks when screen is off

[W]

I am experiencing what is described in this FAQ: http://support.yealink.com/faq/faqInfo?id=702

The phone goes into power saving mode and therefore the LED flashes. Why I need a flashing LED to tell me the screen is off, I have no idea. It makes me want to wake up the phone to see what call I missed. But then lo and behold, there is nothing needing my attention.

Why do I need special firmware so I can use features.power_saving.power_led_flash.on_time? Does setting it to 0 still allow the LED to work the same as when the screen is on? In other words: I still want it to flash for missed calls and voicemails when the phone is in power saving mode.

Perhaps you find a solution in this large thread:

With the actual firmware the problem should be solved. Please read the thread above.

The LED blinking under the power saving mode is not to tell you the screen is off, it's designed to blink under the powersaving mode to indicate the phone is still working, because many users would wonder what the phone status is when it is on the power saving mode, sometime users may think the phone is dead.

Later we made this configurable on the firmware, and when the on time is set to 0, the phone will blink when there is a missed call or unread voice mail.

The latest firmware is here for T46G,

Thanks for the replies. In my opinion, the LED is made to draw attention to the phone.
If I thought the phone was dead, I would push a button or pick up the handset and quickly discover it was not.

This is what ended up working for me:

I have the latest production firmware for the phone, T46-28.82.0.30.rom (I didn't end up using the beta .51 version.) Then I set the following parameters:

Code:

features.power_saving.power_led_flash.on_time = 0
features.power_saving.power_led_flash.off_time = 3000

These don't exist in the web UI, but that's fine since I don't need them to. This turns off the flashing LED while the screen is off. The LED will still flash if I have a missed call.

Perfect, thank you.
