Thanks a lot guys, didn't know it was a non-functional LED - in normal circumstances the screen lights up normally and evenly - I put on a blank test JPEG on the phone and it is fine... the #2 LED looks inhibited by something.
It's not worth it to buy a LCD and open up the phone, since I have NO idea how to (no tutorials either). Guess I'll suck up the ugliness of the standby clock.

Hey,
Actually for those with "normal" backlit standby clocks, do you mind posting a picture? I really need some assurance that mine is a weird LCD.

Yeah I see it now... wow your's is a lot brighter. Damn, looks like mine is indeed a bad apple.
Oh by the way, I appreciate your help man - can you do one more thing for me - turn off your phone, pop out the battery, and check what manufacturer date it is. It should give a good idea of when the phone was produced. Perhaps maybe mine was manufactured early on, hence the LCD thing.

Oh the print is on the battery, the actual date is on the phone but I can't find it
You can check the battery's date to estimate the production date of the phone.

I used a safety pin to pull it out. I had to get my patience together the first time, but after that it was easy.
