uhh interesting, i didn't know there's an orange/red LED on the other side. we thought you meant the red one for when the OTHER video camera is recording...
There's a button to restore your settings right in the LED patterns editor, which you would see if you tried looking, never mind the search function of the message board. I mean, seriously, what a silly question. "CLICK THE BUTTON THAT SAYS RESTORE ORIGINAL PATTERNS TO RESTORE ORIGINAL PATTERNS"
Before you ask, you can click "Save" to Save as well!!

http://wiki.maemo.org/Extras-testing
Afaik, there's a function in the LED Patterns applet that allows you to revert to the original patterns; it might be the Extras-Devel version though.
http://wiki.maemo.org/Extras-devel
A note about extras-testing and extras-devel: Refrain from updating or installing applications from there unless you have a clear goal (i.e. don't go on a shopping spree), because as the names imply, applications in those repositories are still in testing or development phase.

Edit 2: It's a very bad idea to download a .deb from the package listing and install it manually. That's only there as a (close to) last resort or for testing/development purposes.

If you read my post (which I'm sure you did, since you clicked thanks), the function's in either the extras-devel or extras-testing version of the software. I only said "never mind" because I assumed Creamy Goodness was talking about the Extras version.
(And I can confirm there is such a button.)

Installed Fremantle Extras and Fremantle Extra-devel. The Fremantle Extra-devel cannot be fetched though (some repo's server problem). Couldn't find the installation link for the Fremantle Extras Testing repo, from repository.maemo.org you can just browse it, but not install.
Still there is no Live Focus app in the app manager. BTW, the search function is missing BADLY in the app manager.
As for searching, it works just like contacts. In the app manager list (I usually go to the "All" list) just start typing the name of the app you're looking for. It will pair down the list to package with what you typed in the title or short description.
