Disable Charging LED

Is there any way of disabling the Charging LED?

Only a small gripe as it's quite bright and lights up my ceiling while I'm trying to grab some sleep.

I did but it still leaks the light pretty strong when faced down, I need to cover it with something too.

I wouldn't mind but I really want to use the dock station I bought. I can also turn the dock away from my face but that defeats the purpose of having my phone easily accessible abd the dock station itself Slightly_frowning_Face

Ditto!!!

Using the "awesome" dock (far more convenient than opening the usb port cover each and every time ) means it is worse and the option of putting face down is ruled out .... And even the simple paper solution becomes a game of jenga to keep it standing.. 

Amazong phone let down by a really basic user experience oversight that requires a simple software fix. Hopefully fix will come in 4.4.3 update from Sony ???

I know it's money, but buy Lightflow. It's only a £1 or 2, and it enables you to turn the charging/charged LED either completely off, or down to like 10%, which is what I did. Works a treat.

Hm, doesn't work for me!

Any suggestions?

OK so I was putting the phone face down for night and I scratched the screen this way. Please add an option to disable this stupid LED.

Agree with baldwin471. This is the only option I've found.

Thanks for the link. How did you talk to the developers? Do you work for Sony ? Will it come with Android L or 4.4.4 update ?
