On your BlackBerry device you should have a number of LED indicators, or different color lights that will flash to notify you of something.  Here are the colors and how you can stop them from blinking:

Red – If you see a flashing red light on your BlackBerry device it simply means that you have a new message waiting for you.  If you would like to visually be notified of new messages go here:

Applications.

Profiles.

Advanced.

Select a profile to modify.

Select a message type to modify.

Repeat Notification LED Flashing/Off.

Yellow – If your BlackBerry device is showing you a blinking yellow light it means that the battery is low, which can be remedied by plugging into a charger.

Green – When your BlackBerry device shows you a blinking green light it just means that you are in a coverage area.  If you would like to turn the green light off do this:

Go to Applications.

Options.

Screen/Keyboard.

LED Coverage Indicator On/Off.

Blue – If your BlackBerry device shows you a blinking blue light it means that you have an active bluetooth connection.  If you would like to turn the blue light off do this:

Go to Applications.

Options.

Bluetooth.

Menu.

Options.

LED Connection Indicator On/Off.

    Its doing so because u have taking the blackberry battery out when it has had a low battery wich makes the phone think there is a low battery, simply charge up the phone and then take out the battery when fully charged :)

    What is the green flashing light for on my blackberry?

    Also, all of a sudden my blackberry doesn’t want to charge. Would this be a problem with my phone or with the charger?

    I am going out of town soon and need to get this figured out.

    Can you please help me ASAP?

    Thank you!

    my blue LED light came on a few times and I couldn’t figure it out since I don’t have bluetooth enabled. But, I had an app running that connects to the many different social networks and it wasn’t closed. Once I closed the app, the light stopped.

    for all those guys who are having weird color led indicators , its probably coz u hav downloaded an led indicator app from appworld. delete that app and check for the led coverage indicator in options.
    u can get it to stop Or start very easily.

    At this time it seems like Expression Engine is the top blogging platform out there right now.

    (from what I’ve read) Is that what you’re using on your blog?
