Any solution for that ?
not sure what you mean? a half press of the camera button turns the lights on
I think he means when a call comes in, the buttons on the face of the phone don't light up... I have been wondering about this too - it's not great when trying to answer a call in the car at night.
I have noticed that as well. Of course, I can touch the screen to answer, but it would be nice to see the red and green call buttons lit up as they did on my Wizard.

This is is my problem.
Happens with the Vario III too!
At present I do not own a TyTN II, but soon that will change (most likely)...but i just want to verify something.
The front buttons; call send, end, ok/softkey, start/sofkey, (and to a lesser extent the directional pad) do not light up at all, or only when a call is coming in?
They are backlit (well, not the directional pad), they are just saying the backlight is not automatically triggered on an imcoming call.
So what is the solutions for this?
How to keep buttons backlit when call is incoming?
Is it possible to keep these buttons backlit as long as the screen is backlighted (would be easier to navigate while you are in car in the dark)
Thanks,
Piotr
I searched registry without result.
Thanks for replay, but is it really true that it can't be changed??!!
pleasy anyone, help!
Help me too
This evening I was walking to my car which was parked on an unlit parking lot. The backlight not coming up automatically is really annoying Any help would be appreciated.
I got used to it. Now I can just press the buttons without looking the phone since there's no solution to it yet.
I found out that solution is pressing the camera button half way down (which is very easy to find and to press) turns on the backlight of all other hardware keys on the front of the device. really helpful.
greetings
Now that i read this thread, i just realized i was feeling for the buttons to answer a call while i was driving cos it was dark & i still am not familiar with the buttons....it's only been a week since i got the TyTN II Would love to see a tweak for this if there is
I found out that solution is pressing the camera button half way down

That's not a solution. That's finding another button, to turn on the backlight to find another button
Anyway. I'm afraid I have to get used to it. But it's these little things which annoy me more and more. How come interface designers don't think of this?
Has anyone found a solution to this, it's really annoying, I was woken up by a call last night and was fumbling around trying to find the answer key in the dark . My old Artemis used to light up the buttons along with the screen on an incoming call.
Hi
I have an Achieve holder in my car for the Kaiser.
My problem is following:
The button back light tuns off earlier then the Screen.... therefore It is really hard to find the buttons...
Is it possible to make the buttons to light while the screen is on?
hi all
i just noticed on my tilt that all the keys light up except for the navigation keys..
is this normal or do I need to get my fone exchanged?
When you recover from a suspend/sleep only the screen lights.
If you tap on the screen only the screen will light.
If you slide out the keyboard only the screen and keyboard will light. The keyboard lights will timeout before the screen.
If you press the dpad, any of the front buttons, or any of the side buttons, (except power) they should all light up but will time out before the screen does.
Actually i was talking more about when you hit one of those green/red/ok/msg/windows/navigation buttons..
does the 5 way navigation also light up(Like the edges)..
No, 5 way dpad itself is solid and does not glow even around the edge.
I have come back to the TyTN II after a brief flirtation with the Touch HD.
The one thing I hate about it is when you turn it on: why is the screen so dark? Outside, I can hardly see to enter the right password, the original TyTN wasn't like this, so how do I get rid of this "feature"?
I have tried the Kaiser Tweak, but there is nothing obvious there to change the device's behaviour. At least it stops the annoying practice of turning off the screen during a call.
This might sound minor, but for me it is a MAJOR irritant - so any help would be gratefully accepted.
thanks!

Turn the back light up
Map a key with AE so can turn up and down in an instant
thanks for answering - but I don't understand.
How can I turn the backlight up - this is the stage before I have entered the password to get into the thing. After that stage, the backlight is fine. The grid of numbers is dark, and not backlit - why is that?
I don't know what AE is, sorry.

Ah i have no password i imagine it's pre loaded settings so that's why dark, AE Button
I have found ways to dim and turn off the capacitive buttons using screen filters and Gravity Box, but I can't seem to find a way to time them out. It would be great to watch videos and use the daydream feature without the buttons being lit up the whole time (and not having to go out of the way to turn them off.) Does anyone have any ideas?
