where can i dim the backlight? i'm searching for the backlight settings, but haven't found anything.
any reg tweak?
thx very much.
do u need to check some key register.....
i guess not. did some research, seems you can't set the backlight in any way.
poor, but true.
under power settings there is 'backlight off' and 'display off'.
i set the backlight off to quick (15secs) but display off to 2 minutes. The display is quite readable indoors with the backlight off (I suspect it is on a little - so the description in settings is not accurate).
Hopefully a firmware update will bring proper brightness control. Although I rememer my C500 and C550 not having it as well.

Im not sure if the hardware supports multiple levels for backlight.
I tried an app to test.(only tested on vda2 wm 5.0)
the only thing that happens is off or on.
but it works on ppc version!(didnt try on real ppc , but the emulator does switch light conditions! nothing happens on sp emulator)
no, unfortunately it's not supported.
big, big disadvantage!
Verify this Keyreg....and update on your SP.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Backlight\
- AcTimeout = 60
- AutoSensor = 1
- BatteryBacklight = 40
- BatteryTimeout = 15
- m_ACTimeout = 0
- m_BatteryTimeout = 0

didn't work for me sadly
Try SPB's phone suite. It has phone profiles that are entirely configurable based on time of day, hardware events (plugged in, bluetooth headset connected, etc.), and even meetings (turn your phone to silent or vibrate automatically during a meeting. Indispensible software in my opinion.

With a registry editor:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\EnableFastD ormantDisplayDuringCall -change value from 1 to 0
and:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone\Sleep -change value from 1 to 0
This key partially works for me
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight]
"LightSensorPollingEnable"=dword:0
As long as i keep the phone vertical, the screen will stay on, at any point during the call, if i tilt the phone 45 degrees either left or right, the screen will blank.
I'm currently searching for backlight/screen/gsensore related keys.
still no luck for me. anyone can help?
Try this cab, it works for me on a Vodafone UK rom, stops the screen going of during a call at any angle. BUT, it does break the 'Face Down Mute Ring' function. For me, this is an acceptable sacrifice.
If anybody can improve on this......
try this:
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\BatteryTimeoutInCall set to 0
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\BatterySuspendTimeoutInCall to 0
Apply the tweak(s), and then restart your phone, and the screen will remain lit during the call. In case (highly unlikely) the above doesn't work, then along with that use the following:
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\EnableFastDormantDisplayDuringCall to 0
HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone Sleep to 0
HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\LightSensorPollingEnable to 0

I have all these sest as above....and my phone STILL goes to sleep
try the above cab, let me know if ir works or not!
havin the same problem with my raphael
I tried all your tweaks, none of them worked.
In the energy saving settings i set that if the phone is on battery to turn of the screen after a minute of not doing anything - maybe thats why?
do you think it could have to do with the settings for standby?
the issue is with the light sensor turning the display off... this has been confirmed in the Diamond's list of tweaks.
now just need someone to work on a cab to disable the light sensor during phone call!

The Raphael works slightly differently than the diamond. Yes, the light sensor does turn the display off, this has been corrected in my cab file by disabling light sensor polling. The screen will also turn off if the angle of the device is between 30 and 60 degrees. i.e. holding the phone at an angle against your head. This has also been corrected in my cab file by changing the polling interval of the gsensor.
Now, when i make a call, the screen will remain on until the normal power saving rules kick in, i.e. screen will dim after 30 seconds, and the phone will enter standby after 1 minute.

Thanks for the feedback. This could be looking good as a permanent solution!
thanks for the effort vlad69uk....but at the moment, am not willing to sacrifice the 'mute on face down' option just yet....

Hey, has anyone managed to get WiFi not to get turned off when the phone goes into sleep mode?
I am trying to get VOIP to work on the phone and because of the auto-sleep feature during a phone call (which I have managed to turn off according to this thread though with a possible caveat of decreasing the sensitivity of the GSensor in GSensor enabled applications), WiFi gets killed off and there goes the call.
I've tried some of the settings outlined in this thread to no avail. I would prefer not to have WiFi killed off when the phone goes to sleep though.
OK never mind. I've solved the problem by myself.
These are the registry keys to change from 4 to 0: (probably works with 1 as well - haven't tried them)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Resuming\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Suspend\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Unattended\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
The setting to do this is part of Scapps Advanced Config and works brilliantly
I couldn't find it under Advanced config. Found it under Diamond Tweak though.
And apparantly "1" works as well.
There's a checkbox under Menu - More settings - Connections in AdvancedConfig.
Hello,
since a few days I'm testing the new Mobile Shell 3. My first impression is very well. But one thing causes problems.
While I had installed Mobile Shell 2.x I was using S2U2 to make my device switch off.
S2U2 settings -> device switches off 10 sec after background-light turned off
WM6 power-settings -> background-light turns off after 15 sec - device switch off is not activated.
Everything worked fine... Background-light turns off after 15 sec. Further 10 sec later device switches completely off...
Now I've upgrated Mobile Shell 2 to version 3 but I've absolutely nothing changed on any settings - and suddenly S2U2 doesn't switch off my device any more...
My PPC turns off background-light after 10 sec (everything ok) - but S2U2 seems not to be able to switch off the device completely. Display is still on and shown darkly. But Touchscreen has turned off (doesn't react on finger-tapping).
When I close Mobile Shell everything works fine again.
So it seems that MS3 is blocking the suspend mode of some programs.
I think with Nitrogen (Mp3-player) it was nearly the same. In this prog does exist a suspend button but by tapping it only background-light switches off...
Anybody an idea or made same experiences?
Thank you
flahn
why don't you just change it in your setting of the battery in WM? I have a Lg ks20 and i change it there so after 1( sec he turns of the light) and after 3 minutes he switches off my phone. I also have spb mobile shell 3.0 and there are bugs in it atm.
Just click on your battery and go to the advanced tab.
Hope this helps you a bit

Hello Switchke,
thanx for your answer.
My problem is a little bit complicated.
I'm using my KS20 in combination with the prog phoneAlarm. For me it's the only possibility to get the LED's of my KS20 turn on (if there is an new SMS for example) although it is in suspend-mode. Or do you know another way to make the LED's shine when device is turned off?
I got the same idea you described before. I changed the settings of power options in wm and deactivated s2u2. But it appeared a new problem.
If there is an unread SMS phoneAlarm is set to send every x seconds a signal for the LED to light it up. In older Mobile Shell 2.x or by turning off MS3 everything works fine - after 15 sec light turns off, after 1 min device switches off.
But by using MS3 the device every 10 sec after switching off turns on again (because of the signal of phoneAlarm I think). Problem only causes with MS3.
If I can't find a solution I will reinstall MS2 - the shining LED is very useful for me because I don't have to switch on device every time for looking after unread sms or new calls...
Hello
i have a strange problem, but i dont know when it really started
i have an htc touch pro, latest official firmware
it seems the device ignores all suspend settings
settings are:
turn off backlight if device not used for 1 min
turn off device if not used for 2 min
but the device goes black after approx 28 - 30 secs sometimes longer, but thats the usual time
anyone any ideas what could be causing this type of behavior ?
Hy,
you have the setting for each of the battery operation and mains operation done?
Greatz
mccoffein
yep done both
