PR1.3: disable front cam red light
 
The PR1.3 update has introduced an annoying red light when the front camera is active (presumably for some privacy protection nonsense - like anyone doing anything untoward wouldn't just stick electrical tape over that anyway!)

Anyway, it's really easy to disable this... simply install the LED Pattern Editor program, go to the "Webcam Active" pattern and delete all of the events under that pattern, leaving just a "Stop" (or "End") event in there.

Simple as that :)

Anyone can make a app ? Maybe have options switching the RED LED Light to Notification Light Indicator. So same time you can know it's recording or taking picture with a blink and continuously light on while recording.

Advantage; Get some privacy like "stopgap" has mentioned.
