I saw somewhere where you could set a setting that would keep your lcd on dim while charging the phone. Any ideas what it might be.
Thanks
Eddie
Yeah in the settings you cab have the screen stay on while charging

Is it possible to disable the backlight for the soft keys?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
I'm pretty sure there isn't a way but don't quote me on that. My logic is because it seems the backlit keys use the screen light to actually become backlit they aren't like a separate area really.
I think they are on a separate sensor. In CM7 they would be off a lot of the time.

Yes they can be disabled.

You can try the LEDS hack (root) from the market.. I know it works on the inc, haven't tried it on the thunderbolt though I know it's not listed as "supported".. worth a shot
Could you point me in the direction I need to go?

Leds hack is a no go. Thanks though.

There are two LEDs at the bottom of the phone that light the keys. I accidentally covered them up when replacing my LCD so I have no backlight for the keys now and...I kinda like it! They aren't bleeding into the screen now too.

They can be disabled in the kernel.
You can disable them.by editing the framework also =)
App called "screen filter" has the option for it. Only lasts as long as its open though(runs in background, open in notifications). But it does work.

Very helpful. I know there's a way to do it even if no one's thought of it yet. If I have to I'll just desolder the LEDs and bridge the spaces. I'd rather do it with software though.
Or just like get electrical tape and cover it up itll still work

a little crude, but might work. I suppose I could trim it with an exact-o knife.
Its what I used to do, but I got over it so I just used a privacy guard screen protector and its kinda blocks it out too

No.... eyes hurt at nite... im trying to keep brightness all the way down as possible...rite now aint got no choice to use a dark glasses but just wondering if someone have found out how to..!!
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
it's a bit of a leap but there's film you can get to cover automotive lights. Maybe a clean rectangle or appropriate shape cut out can at least dim them some and be more durable and cleaner looking than tape. Heck... window tinting material might work. Although I don't know what these methods would do to any touch sensitivity. Ideally you would still see the lights, they would be dimmer and still function.
Anyone know of a mod or app to shut off the soft(copasative) lights on my evo? I don't need them.
Thanks,
Charles

If you are running cm7 or cm9, check out this guide for dimming the screen, just set all the button values to zero and the soft buttons won't light up anymore.

you could always install MikG 3.11 and run Miktweaks which is built into the ROM; it has the option to disable the illumination for those buttons.

You've gone into the advanced settings and checked the adjust soft key box? Then set the frequency to always off.
You need to check lux to never be killed. Then bring up the dashboard and refresh you lux value and then the settings should stick. I've found that at night the capacitive keys turn back on though.

You can try the link button to match the settings to a particular lux value. Honestly it took a bit of trial and error to get the settings to stick.
Do the steps before open the dashboard, let it adjust the value. Set your default back light % and then link it. Mine eventually stuck. As I said at night they still come back on. Go figure !

You can just disasmble the screen and take out the light filters for the 4 keys! That's what I did.

I think it might just be my phone but everytime i use the physical keyboard in light the led on the keyboard doesnt turn on but when i use it in the dark they turn on. Has anyone notice this?
ERrr I think the light sensor controls that. Especially if you have it to set auto.
Sent from my XT897 using xda premium
Mine does that, think it is a power saving feature. Uses the sensor by the earpiece much the same way as the auto feature with screen brightness.

It is a feature of the phone. I work for the sprint store, and our rep tried to show us that like it was an actual selling point. If you put your thumb on the sensor between the speaker and the camera the light will come on.

Not to my knowledge, at least not on the stock rom. CM7 had settings you could adjust, I imagine when CM9 hits we will see the same.

I often catch up on xda and other forums from my phone in bed before going to sleep. My wife complains about the light from my phone. I set the brightness to the lowest it can go but I feel that it can go even lower and still be perfectly fine.
Is there any way to set it even lower via an app or maybe a custom ROM that I haven't tried?
Thanks
