Ok, so I'm fairly new to the BB world (got my Bold 9700 a couple of weeks ago) and I know that when there is something that needs attention, the notification light blinks red.

Well, twice today it has blinked red and twice I cannot find anything. Nothing under downloads, applications, no sms, no bbm, no email, nothing. What am I missing and why is it blinking? Help!

OK...so it blinked red for about 4 minutes and then stopped. What the heck?

Had that happen to me once, too. I have no idea why, but it went away eventually and hasn't been back since.

I also always use the lock button to turn the screen off and from time to time I look over the screen turns on by itself. Gremlins?

[TheIgster]

No one else ever have this issue? No ideas folks?

[Thaddeus_one]

Its been discussed elsewhere, there are a few common reasons, the one that it turned out to be for me was weatherbug, if you have that app and there is a weather alert your light will blink without any little icons at the top of the screen.

As far as the screen turning on I don't have any ideas, except maybe a phone call? Or gremlins seems plausable too.

it could be bluetooth or coverage indicator is turned on.

Bluetooth flashes the LED blue, not red.

The culprit for me also turned out to be a weather alert from WeatherBug.
