Hi All,
I have read a lot about the backlight issue and tried all the fixes, such as settings in the system area (both backlight and power), installed and re-installed the backlight fix and still - the backlight resets itself to 10 seconds on battery power.
I have the default ROM with the registry tweaks installed.
Any other ideas that might help?
Thanks

My MDA III does not keep the backlight -tab battery power- ('turn off backlight if device is not used for') setting, after a short time it switches automatically back to 10 seconds. I found the value in the registry too and changed it but same result. Does somebody have a solution for my problem? Thanks in advance! (ROM version 5.04.10.WWE)

I sometimes have the same problem. if you do a button reset (power button and reset hole) it corrects the problem for a while.
Hey, i recently hard resetted my device and i am having an issue with my keyboard. The backlight turns off after 30 seconds(adjustable), but shouldn't it turn back on when i type(it just stays off)? I cant seem to find the setting for that... and yes, it did turn on the light before the hard reset.
*edit*
fixed it -> buttons -> uncheck enable backlight autosensor
Does anyone has my problem? I've tried to set the backlight off timer in Setting > Power to a longer value. But everytime I lock my phone, this timer will automatically reset to 10sec!!
Very strange......
Yes, exactly the same here. Maybe it's related to some installed software. I guessed it was SKTools or Advanced Config (as they try to tune a better performance), or some registry tweaks. Did u install any of these, or did any registry tweak?
Then, I flashed it to ROM 137, and it's fine till now (SKTools not installed yet).
I have installed Advanced Config
I had the same problem, but when turning off the keyblock the problem was fixed...
Hi,
And what about the backlight off timer when having a call ?
During a call, there is no possibility to keep backlight on more than 5 seconds. A bit too short to think and tap a date or a note.
Nowhere to configure this timer.
I spent half of last night and the last 3-hours searching on here and via Google but am stumped if I can solve this issue.
I have a ROM based on the HTC Official 5.2.19212. Included in this I have Battery Status (now HomeScreen PlusPlus) and the Tools page is set to enable 'DeviceLock on WakeUp', 'Lock if Device is Off or vice versa' & 'BackLight Fix for 10s-Bug & 30 sec.' (these settings are included by default in the ROM). I also have the BackLight settings for Battery Power set to 'Turn off the backlight if device is not used for 30 sec'.
No matter what I try the Battery Power BackLight settings ALWAYS revert back to 10-seconds in the GUI, however in the registry it is 7-seconds (HKCU\ControlPanel\BackLight\BatteryTimeout:00000007).
It looks like if the Device Lock kicks in (either manually from the Today Screen or as a result of Battery Status) the registry entry changes to 7 and there is nothing you can do about it. This is by far the most annoying thing with the Kaiser (and it seems most other WM6 devices based on my searching). I have tried some of the StartUp utilities that are supposed to fix this as well as all the registry tweaks I have found and the the behaviour is always the same.
Believe me I have searched and searched and there seems to be no solution that I can find for this. Is there one that I have missed?

(There is another issue where if you go to the Battery Status settings the registry entry [HKCU\ControlPanel\BackLight\LockLevel] always gets reset to 0, however as I don't open the settings to Battery Status very often this isn't a big deal).

Already found that and it doesn't have any solutions...

Latest post from Cingular Forum:
The backlight has not dimmed in nearly four hours after I set HKCU\ControlPanel\BackLight\LockLevel\ACTimeout to 0.
I did a soft reset and the setting remained 0.
I put the phone into stand-by (quick press of the power button) and when brought out of stand-by, the value of ACTimeout was reset to 8.
I have been getting so pi$$ed off with this I just disabled the Battery power backlight settings and deleted the registry entry that keeps getting reverted:
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight\BatteryTimeout]
This was just to stop it dimming after 10-seconds - i.e. just leave the backlight on regardless. Anyway its now behaving exactly like I want it to - The screen will dim after 30-seconds whether its locked or unlocked. If I hit the power button or the Device Lock on the Today screen the registry entry does not return (so far anyway) and its still waiting 30-seconds before the backlight dims. I need to do some soft resets etc, but it's looking good....

After last update screen brightness and rotation stopped working on my device, is that my issue or someone experiencing similar issue?
PS changing settings, reboots and resets doesn't change anything...
Okay, after contacting Razer support and soft-reset (volume up and power button) everything got fixed.
