Anyone know where the registry key is to change the power off setting? I would rather have it set at 30 seconds than the minute 1 min that is allowed in the settings.
I wouldn't change it to anything less then 1 minutes as you can run into issues with the notifications (aka alarms) not working properly.
Ok well what about the backlight settings, the options are 10 sec and 30 sec. Can the registry change to say 15 sec?

should be in registry at HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\BatteryTimeout. Change this key to whatever you want..
Wonderful, thanks so much.

Hi there,
my HTC revererts automatically to 5 min before switching off the backlight.
If i correct the setting in settings->backlight->'Turn off backlight if device is not used for...' to 10 sec. after some time, it changes to 5 min.
Does anyone know about this problem?

Hi, i want to reduce power of time(the time need to go in sleed mode, min value usually is 45 seconds). someone know the registry key that i have to modify?? thanks a lot
Hi,
Is there any way to change backlight time out when the phone is locked(long red button press)??? Normally my phone is set up to turn of backlight after 40 sec -and I wanna KEEP it. I need to shorten that time to 5 sec only when the phone is locked(when accidentally I press any button in the pocket it will be unnecessary draining battery for 40 sec. Please can anybody help me?
Bump, I would like a solution to this also. Seems like my Diamond used to time out after ten seconds when locked, but it doesn't do that anymore. Now it uses the settings in the Setting:System/Power/Backlight, which I have set at 45 seconds I believe. I think installing Phone Alarm might have something to do with it. I disabled Phone Alarms power settings, but still same problem.
Anyone know the fix for this?
Nevermind, I just started using S2U2, and I can adjust this the way I need it. Thanks.
Hi, please forgive me for asking such a dumb question. I imagine my problem is not that uncommon. By default, the phone turns off back light if I don't touch any key for 30 seconds (feels like shorter than that). Anyway, I dial in to check my voicemail. Due to the length of the message, the back light turns off. It looks like there is no key other than the power button can bring the screen back. Sometimes, I have to press the power button a couple of times before the screen comes back, then when I try to delete the message (by pressing 7) sometimes I don't even see the keypad any more. It's just a bit of hassle. Can you tell me how you would do it?
thanks very much!
I'm not sure if there's an option for the phone not to switch the backlight off and/or go to sleep while in a phone call.
If you want to control the duration before the phone switches off the backlight or goes to sleep, you will have to change the backlight or power settings ujnder Settings -> System.
didn't know when and how it was set at 10 sec backlight

Thanks! I went into Settings -> System -> backlight and realized that it was set to was set at 10 sec on battery. I don't know when it got changed. Reset it back to 30 sec. should be better now. Changed the power to turn off after 3 min, too.
Dear all,
Even I changed "Sleep" to 1 or 2 minutes (however ...) but then when screen off and on again, sleep time automatic change to 15 seconds.
How can I solve this issue? I need at least 1 minutes to off screen.
Thanks.
