Well I understand your point. But I don't think that users will
understand that point. (even when they had devices that supported
colored LEDs) I'm getting requests to support these things and I am
getting bad ratings for not having this included. But what can I do? I
have mentioned in my application and in the market information that
this specific devices do not support colored LEDs. But well users
ignore that sort of thing. I have no possibility of hiding these
features from my application. And since the applications base task is
to customize nearly everything (from the notifications) I am worried
about this topic. It would be fine if I could say:

if HERO
 hide LED

But this is not possible.
