Hello,
how can I do it? With Advanced Config I can change the time the keyboard remains on after the last key press. But I want to deactivate this backlight.
Thank you!
Try to set the time to 0.
The lowest value is 1 second.
Just out of curiousity...why do you want to do this?
The backlight makes me nervous

my question is, for what keyboard you wanna do this as the diamond has no hardware keyboard with backlight...

Hi guys!
Is there a registry modify to set the qwerty timeout? I think that 10 sec more or less is too short.
Tnx
Strange my keyboard backlight stays on longer than 10 sec...

HKCU >Control Panel>Backlight>QKeyLedTimeout
Tap on this entry and in the "value data" box enter the time you want the keyboard to stay on in seconds. Mine is set to 360 or 6 minutes. (default is 10 seconds)

How can I always have the keyboard light on?
Thanks
msuk
on a related note, should the keyboard light not come back on when i press a key ? at the moment, if i pause when typing, the keyboard backlight goes off but doesn't come back on when i start typing again. is this normal behaviour ?

Mine comes back on when i start typing.
thanks for that - i thought it was odd behaviour ...
The keyboard has a little light sensor and will only come on if it deems it necessary. This can be changed in the control panel somewhere.. I don't have my phone on me at the moment.

i'm assuming that if the light came on initially then the light sensor deemed it necessary. i'm assuming that it should come back on again a few seconds later when i start typing again.
can't seem to find that entry in the control panel which almost certainly means that it IS there somewhere, i just can't see it ...
cheers

Start/Settings/Personal tab/Buttons/Backlight tab
Uncheck the box that says
Enable keyboard backlight auto sensor
The auto sensor does not work very good. This way if the light goes off it will come back on as soon as you start typing.

Hi all,
Is there a way to set the keyboard backlight permanent on, when it is charging?
I have try advanced config, but there i only can change the timeout. No difference if chargin or not.
Thanks for your help
Best regards Voshi
Are you sure you dont have a touch pro?

umm... what?
sorry for missunderstanding i mean the "keyboard" from Diamond of course. I want to set the 4 hardwarekeys (home - back - hang up - hang on) permanent on when the diamond is in the carholder. the backlight for this keys are only on (for 10 sec by default) if you touch the sensor. sorry for my poor english, hope you know what i mean
Thanks yoshi
he wanted to say that there is no keyboard on the diamond device so that you can adjust the keyboard backlight.
at least - my diamond does also not have a keyboard
if you want to adjust the keyboard backlight, you have to buy yourself a diamond pro

He means which version of the Diamond do you use?? the one with a qwerty keyboard or the one without??
as all you can see in my signatur i have a Touch Diamond. I also write this post into the Diamond section! hope now its clear. The question is still the same. How can i set the 4 hardwarekeys to permanent backlight when the diamond is in the carholder.
\\Yoshi
i understood what he meant, just not the second post lol
i have never read about a solution for this, seen a couple of other posts asking.
Hope i am proved wrong
Allright man...sorry for my delayed reaction.....I wasn't the only one on this topic...lol
I don't have a solution either...I know when you slightly touch the center button, it will glow up and then go off in about 20 seconds...I'm wondering IF it would be possible anyhow....
i see.
we were confused as "keyboard backlight" is different to "hardwarekey backlight"
but here you go:
change HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\QKeyLedTimeout to a higher value.
the value represents seconds.
haven't tried it myself. please post back if it works
yes the reg key is working, but iam looking for a solution only if the touch diamond is in the cradle.
\\yoshi
Maybe possible if you use Phoneweaver to create a "power" profile (which is activated when u plug in power or sync) to run a Mortscript file that writes to the registry.
In your script file (open a text file and save it as .mscr), you just need this line:
RegWriteDWord ("HKCU", "ControlPanel\Backlight", "QKeyLedTimeout", no_of_seconds)
Another script file to make it back to default value once you disconnect from plug or sync:
RegWriteDWord ("HKCU", "ControlPanel\Backlight", "QKeyLedTimeout", 10)
Hi all,
I found a interestistin post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=440305
where i can use mortscript if the diamond is handsfree connected.
so how can i send a "touch sensor" command?

In the dark, the Xperia keyboard looks awesome. But in the light, the keys are hard to see. I have to tilt the device at different angles to read the keycaps. The keys are silver and the backlight makes them disappear in ambient light. Anyone have a hint, like shutting off key backlight when the light sensor registers light? Would be a great idea if they could do it - we only need the backlight for the keyboard when it's nearly dark.
Just go to settings, system, power, backlight and tick auto adjust. This is what i use anyway and it means that the keyboard hardly ever lights up in the day but looks great at night.
Thanks, this makes the keyboard better.
But the screen is now a bit less ambient than I prefer.
Is there no way of killing of that backlight permanently?
Me too...
I´m very interested in a solution too because I´m having the same experiences ! (silverkeys / when lit up hard to see)
I'd like to turn off the backlight of cursor keys. I mean completely. Now they light up if I click the cursor key. Any idea ?
Almost a year passed with no solution!!!
Xda developers come on!!
This works for me
The app ToggleAuto is the best solution I´ve found. It simply turns autobacklight on and of. works for me.
Put a shortcut on your todayscreen for easy access.

a user "why?" from 4pda.ru gave such advice:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SonyEricsson\Illumination]
"QWERTYBRIGHTNESS"="50" . I have not finded this key and havn't ideas how it can be created. If your attempt will be successfull -- pls, post here. P.S. It must to make keyboard backlight adequate, it will not turn off backlight.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\Rotation
HideOrientationUI from 1 to 0
then START - settings - Buttons
And then if you hold call button then your screnn rotate.
gyrator 2 is also a very good program but it is not able to turn the touchflo userinterface but everything other it rotates with ease (including textmessaging etc.)
i cant really seem to either understand or find this directory "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\Rotation" ? is there a possible cahnce that you could specify it a little more so that even i understand? HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\Rotation

It is not a directory, you have to edit registry with registry editor program "REGEDIT" or some else.
If you are in registry (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\Rotation) then you have to change key "HideOrientationUI" from 1 to 0.

To get the action screen you have to install touchflo3d from touch pro. Of course you have to enable rotation like other posters said.
hmk thx i'll try

thanks mate you're a genius, i was searching for that for a time ago
thanks again
The Phone Keypad, Compact QWERTY and Full QWERTY on my phone are all stuck in numeric entry mode. When I tap the button to switch them back nothing happens at all.
Does anybody know how to fix this? Is there a registry value that I could alter to get it back into letters?
Thanks
tried a soft reset?
other than that, u could try installing the .cab for the keyboard, search should find it.

Thank U very much !!!
I had the same problem, after trying Diamond Tweak.
Somehow i got a tiny (blue) keyboard at the bottom of the screen and didn't know how to get back to the bigger keybord.
Thanks again !!!
Thanks, this helped me also!!!
