Can any developer make an LED notification app for the Captivate ?

So I know there is no LED notification indicator on the Captive, and I know about the LED notification app that makes a little square light up on the screen. But I was thinking, wouldnt it be nice to have one of the four touch sensitive buttons at the bottom light up as a notification indicator ? Like the Home button ? This would be nice for other phones as well.

There's a post over at XDA where they're trying to do just that. From what I understand they are having problems finding the controls for the buttons though.

where can i find the app that lights up a little square?

it would be just cool if they can have the whole screen of the phone blink/flash colors that u assigned in according to the different notification rather than 1 small dot/square on the screen.

Flashing the screen colors would destroy battery! I would like the home buttons to work though; )

Maybe someone answered you in another thread, but the XDA guys finished their app. It's caled NoLED and it's free on the Marketplace.

NoLED works great for me. What problem are you having?

It barely works. The LED will pop up but will lag the phone to no end. its bogus

There's an app called Missed Message Flasher in the Market that blinks the screen. It flashes just the lock screen though. No clue if it's worse/better for the battery than NoLED.
