LED Mod For Dell Streak

Do you have a Dell Streak and wish that the LED’s were just a bit more exciting? Well, if you do, you will envy the mod that XDA forum member tomgman customized his own Android tablet with. He bravely dismantled his Dell Streak and changed the SMD 0603 LEDs to rid the tablet of the original white LEDs and ends up with a blue home button, pink menu button, and a green back button.

If you were wondering what the XDA member meant by SMD, it stands for Surface Mount Devices (SMD) and they are electronic devices such as the circuit board of the Streak, which are made to accommodate Surface Mounted Components (SMC), which in turn can be mounted directly onto the surface of the board. The mod requires some experience with soldering and handling 0603 components. The next question posed by other XDA members included how to make the LEDs flash for message notification.
