Does anybody knows how to turn on the keyboard lights under wm6
I have a mda pro but cannot find the option to turn on the lights.
I know under wm5 there was a option to turn it on.
please help me out
Once you are in settings, open the "Buttons" settings
Select the "Backlight" tab. There you have a tickbox and a drop-down list - you should know what to do
Also, the keyboard backlight is light sensitive - so it won't turn on unless your surroundings are dark
Enjoy!
The Universal has its light sensor at the top of left hand side of its keyboard, it's about 3/4-1 mm in diameter. Close it by your finger (simulating nightly conditions ), and press any key -- you should see the light instantly.
Just a little note but if you leave box unticked the keyboard lights up in all conditions for the time you have set(up to 10 seconds).
Erm, guys. Backlight turns on when I'm typing at all conditions. What's it could be?
May be your sensor is damaged? What do you have in HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\QKey*?

Hi there, my SP5m display always goes out (e.g. turns black) in less than 5 seconds even though I didn't specify such setting anywhere on my smartphone?! It doesn't keylock it, it just goes black and doesn't prevent key presses, whenever I hit a button it comes back to normal and it's a real pain for the moment!
FYI, I'm using WM6 perfect edition (thanks btw!) and here are my settings for "power management" options:
Backlight timeout on battery: 15 seconds
Display timeout: 1 minute
Light sensor: enable
By the way, what's the difference between backlight timeout and display timeout?
Also, I enabled the "Low light" application and modified some "Keylock Config" options...
I also played with "Multi Flash Light" if it helps you guys investigating... Btw, is there any other purpose for this application other than being a "flashlight"? Why was that application loaded in the ROM? Are you guys really using your smartphone as a flashlight? I'd like to know...
Thank you all for your time.

Maybe this will help?
It sure helped me... but I modified another key instead of "LockLevel" cause this one looked OK.
Under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Power\Backlight the key "BatteryTimeout" was set to 0 instead of 15 seconds... and I don't know why?! I modified it and so far so good. It finally works like a charm
P.S. And what about Multi Flash Lite?
Thanks to all
Hello guys.
I want to ask you regarding Home/Back/Green/Red keys backlight,that is often on,while in suspend state with slided-out keyboard.
IOW:
- keyboard slided out
- backlight of bottom keys is ON
- while suspend the backlight goes NOT OFF(sometimes is it working normally)
This happens with WM6.1,WM6.5 as well.
Can someone help with this?
Is anyone else having this same issue? I can confirm that it is happening to me on the stock ROM/RADIO and on EnergyROM 3.0 and the latest ATT radio.
I go to check my messages using the slide out keyboard, and when I'm done I put the phone in standby and close the keyboard, the DPAD backlight is still lit. To 'clear' it, I have to turn the phone on again and press a button on the DPAD (like the center button) and then turn the phone off.
This isn't a show-stopper or anything, but it sure does worry me that one day I'll put my phone in my pocket and take it out at the end of the day with an empty battery... Any help would be most excellent!
Thanks!
I was curious every other HTC phone i've had (e.g.) MDA, Dash......Is there a status light on the Fuze I notice that in the left corner of the earpiece there is something that looks like a light?
That depends on what you mean with status light.
The ring around the "enter" key give an indication about missed calls, appointments or whatever.
thats the light sensor for dynamic backlight ajusting
I mean status light as in it blinks green when you have service, red when you have no service, or green and blue when you have service and wifi connected
No such light on the TP. You will have to check the screen for that.
The light sensor is indeed located at the top of the phone, next to the opening for the speaker. Try it by setting light to automatic and cover the sensor by hand. You'll see the light intensity of the display change.
Thank you....Just a feature I miss
I have been searching through a couple of Android forums and I can't seem to find any info about this.I know the LED on the left side of the earpiece is for notifications but is the one on the right an LED or an ambient light sensor, I have never seen my screen get dim unless it's about to shut off and then it will dim for maybe 2 seconds before it shuts off, and I have never seen it get brighter
Your auto-brightness setting is off...
Goto your homescreen
Press the menu button
Press "Settings"
Press "Sound and Display"
Uncheck "Disable auto backlight"
It is an ambient light sensor..
thanks that's what I thought but there was no indication if that's what it was in the manual or anywhere else
anyone know way to disable the orange LED when the phone is charging?
it is blinding at night and sort of ruins the effect of the cool night-time clock that the 'Kaloer Clock' app gives the phone
I have an old Acer Iconia A500 I wish to repurpose into a "dashboard" and mount on my wall for my home automation system. Ideally, I'd like it to turn off the screen after 5 minutes of not being used (not dim, but off, like I'd hit the sleep button on the side), then wake when someone taps anywhere on the screen, but can't seem to find much information on the topic. I've found Tap Tap App, which relies on the proximity sensor to wake the device when you tap or wave over the sensor, but I think the A500 only has a light sensor, not a proximity sensor, plus a tap is more intuitive.
Does anyone know of a solution?
