Had the same problem go to settings and turn off automatic brightness if its on and slide the brightness up and then turn automatic brightness back on. That should fix it.

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.

Ughh I've been trying to get this working for a week and no luck. Anyone have a good solid solution to disable the backlight?

When you use the on screen keys how do you take of the other ones I use nstools but they still light up when I start it up and I have to touch them to turn off the light how I permanently turn them off?

Why you would want to use the on screen buttons with the Nexus S? If you do this, than what are you doing with the real buttons on the bottom of the phone? Isn't that just wasting more screen real estate by using the on screen buttons?

Nope. Sorry. Actually trying to find out how to disable some of the notifications (lights) on my built in buttons to potentially save more battery life.
That's easy get nstools app and you'll find it

What's the current problem? Setting BLN to 0 turns my cap buttons off (effectively) permanently while using the phone.

Manually through sysfs or NSTools (same thing). You may need NSTools or an init.d script to do it each boot though.
I used nstools but with nstools everytime I turn off the screen and turn it back on the touch keys would light up still and I have to touch them again to turn of the light I want them to stay off

I just tried myself using the latest stable Trinity 1320 and with timeout set to 0 and bln on the buttons stay off even after switching the screen on and off multiple times. Unsure what's going on there. What kernel and version are you using?
I was trying it on the maxr1x 19.5 I haven't tryed on v20.0?

Some ICS ROMs have annoying always-on backlight of the hardware capacitive buttons.
Try one of these to eliminate/dim that :

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.pruss.superdim
According to ShortbusDriver none of these work.
Can someone confirm this works - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26195948&postcount=4
No didn't work either....that would have been an awesome fix though lol
did you try to toggle auto brightness on and off ?
lights should turn off when screen is off.
No capacitive lights do go off with screen....just never go off as long as the screen is on.... for example when watching video a movie let's say....capacitive keys stay on and bright as ever
I see, it exists in CM7 as well.
Probably kernel related.

there's a bug in cm7 github for this issue,
I'm pretty sure Team Acid will take care of it.
Yes I'm sure they are on it.....I'm just looking for a way on my own.......
Just use screen filter it has the option built in

Thanks bro, this actually works, but I have to enable it after each button touch.
I put it as the app to launch when double clicking the screen on Apex launcher (currently on Erikmm's MIUI v4).

Do you guys want them off completely or a set amount of time?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
a set amount of time I think (and my idea, too)
I think it should be like 5 seconds.

Timeout please...seemed to be somewhere around 30 secs or so on stock.
edit: now that I reconsider it may have only been like 10 secs top.
I wouldn't mind if the capacitive key lights went off completely but the keys still work....which ever comes first thank you Erik

It's the same on all ICS roms that I have flashed, and I think I have tested them all
Screen filter is a quick fix...and if you enable navigation bar it works fairly well.
I pulled down my notifications and I saw a notification looking like a native Android one but it said screen recording with a phone as an icon.
Didn't know the phone or rom (cataclysm) had that feature. I pressed the button under the notification and it seemed to record till I rapidly pressed the stop recording button. I now have a 5 sec mp4.
I don't read much and I have no idea how screen recording feature got into my notification pull down.
Any ideas?
