It's never done it before but today i noticed the red LED on the side of my S700 has started flashing like a service light. My battery is not flat so it is not because of this. Any of you guys give me any clues? |

No idea, TBH.
Are you sure there is no signal? No signal and no battery means red light... maybe a reset, i dunno. Faults do happen occasionally, phones arent perfect 24/7

No, i've got a perfectly good signal and my battery is full, i've also done a reset but it still flashes, i'm not worried i just wondered if they'd started working as service lights or something cos my sisters k700 is flashing too, from the power button. |

Maybe it has something to do with the infa-red, maybe that is switched on on your phone, or it could be the bluetooth.
Don't really no just a passing thought though. |

Its a bug in these phones.
It won't do it always & it will sometimes flash for no apparent reason but its not doing any harm.
In theory its only supposed to flash when the battery is low (& maybe with no signal but not sure) & be on solid (not flashing) when on charge.

I see ur still on with the futile search for an explanation. I don't think u'll find one, just a bug that can't be explained.

I had that problem. The LED on mine still flashes even though the battery level indicator is more than 75%

It flashes with very low battery (< 5%) and when charging and the phone is drained not even to light the LCD with the "Charging" label... |
